4 | |
5 | * AmateurFilmMakingPlot: From Sprocket's point of view. His parents are notably pleased with the failure of his plan due to wanting the film bug out of his systems. |
6 | * TheArtifact: As seen in StockFootage, Sprocket's movie production company is named "Buldont Studios", Buldont being the name of his counterpart from ''Ohranger''. |
7 | * AscendedExtra: In-Universe; Rocky was cast as an extra alongside Katherine and Tanya, but difficulties with the initial star and his sidekick cause them to bail and for Rocky to replace them. |
8 | * BodyDouble: Skull is used as Rocky's stunt-double in the episode's final scene. |
9 | * ContinuityNod: Adam staying out of the movie shoot initially makes sense if you remember MMPR Season Two's "Lights, Camera, Action!" where he admitted to being camera shy. |
10 | * DemotedToExtra: Mondo and Machina are only seen at the end of the episode, happy that Sprocket has finally retired from show business. |
11 | * DownerEnding: Invoked by Sprocket's "Invasion of the Ranger Snatchers", who intends to have an ending with the Power Rangers being destroyed by the monsters he created. |
12 | * FlatCharacter: None of the monsters besides Leaky Facet and Video Vulture have any lines and don't have official names. |
13 | * InnocuouslyImportantEpisode: It may seem like a throwaway episode, and in a sense it is, but the footage it uses comes from the ''[[Series/ChourikiSentaiOhranger Ohranger]]'' theatrical movie. Such a movie wouldn't be used for ''Power Rangers'' again until ''Series/PowerRangersSamurai'' in 2011. |
14 | * PrimaDonnaDirector: The director in charge of the movie is obnoxious and smarmy. Not that the main actor is any better, stopping a scene where the monster was supposed to punch him just because he's the star. |
