I'm just glad Tommy didn't save the day for once.

I personally think it would have made more sense if they just wound up using the Astro Megaship Mark 2 and Animus for the battle against Serpentera along with the other Rangers using other Rangers to help out. The issue was that Disney didn't want to pay for so much CGI but using just the Megaship and Animus wouldn't have been that much. They wound up paying for both Predazord and Animus being shot in original footage in a few scenes. I do like Tommy as a character but you do have a point there. I just didn't like the execution of Forever Red especially with Serpentera's destruction or the execution of the Legendary Battle with them using just X-Borgs for the battle. It was supposed to be a big deal for the Legendary Battle so why not use X-Borgs, Bruisers and Kingsmen all at once? |

Re: Has this been discussed before?
Thats a good solution for getting around the cost issue. Using Megaship Mark 2 to form the Astro Megazord and Animus would have made a lot of sense. I would have settled for just Astro Megazord at that point.
Yeah their hands were tied once they had Bandai pay for the final sequence. Since they had to promise to promote the toys. I persume the Wild Zords werent an option. Aparently Jonathon's explanation was that the Wild Rider was from a god, so it could be powerful enough to destory Surpenterra. It was smart to have Animus give Cole the bike before hand to set this up. Maybe the Machine Generals didn't do as good a job as they thought with rebuilding the zord. Since it was vunerable enough for a bike to destory it. Even if it was from a god. |

I would have liked it if they used the original Megazord. Maybe even the Thunder Megazord.

yea it would have been made sense in regards to the Wild Force Rider being powerful since it was a gift from Animus, a God so it was a smart move in that case. That's possible in the case of Serpentera, we could reason that it was in bad shape since it wasn't as huge as it usually was in Dairanger footage. |

Plus Surpenterra used to always have that power drain problem. Its unclear if that was fixed

Re: Has this been discussed before?
true but the Neo Plutonium Reactor was supposedly the fix to that energy issue.

Maybe the reactor wasn't as good as they thought.

Re: Has this been discussed before?
thing is Neo Plutonium was the same thing that the Machine Empire used in order to create an invincible armor for his machines which made it impossible for even the Rangers to make a dent against Silo which meant they needed to use the Super Zeozords that Trey had just given them.
