Latest Power Rangers Trailer Reveals Zordon And Alpha 5
A new Power Rangers trailer dropped today, and this latest one features a ton of reveals. Not only do we see a lot more action in this trailer, but it also reveals major characters like Zordon, Alpha 5, and Goldar. The fabled Megazord even spends a few brief moments on screen, so this trailer definitely wants to get fans of the original show excited.
Whether or not it will succeed in doing that is another thing entirely. Alpha 5 and Zordon look almost nothing like their '90s counterparts, which is to be expected but still might be a little jarring for fans who were hoping for a more direct translation. Goldar, as it turns out, is a creature made of actual gold that Rita Repulsa seemingly rips from the Earth, so that's a pretty interesting spin on the classic show.
In the trailer, we get to see the Rangers actually don their power suits and get their hands dirty, something previous trailers lacked. We see them go toe-to-toe with what is presumably the Putty Patrol, Rita's legion of evil soldiers. There are even a few shots of the Megazord squaring off with a gigantic Goldar, but those are notably in short supply.
Of course, there's plenty of cheese to go along with all of this action. It would seem that even with Power Rangers reenvisioned as a gritty superhero drama, it hasn't lost all of the corniness of the original show. That, in my opinion, is a good thing, and even though I'm not expecting this to be some kind of Earth-shatteringly amazing movie, I'll definitely be heading to the theater to see it. Take a look at the trailer below.
This Power Rangers movie has ruffled a lot of feathers since it was first announced, but now we're closing in on its release and we'll soon see if it's any good. Power Rangers releases in US theaters on March 24. Will you be going to see it? Let us know in the comments section.
