"ZORDON OF ELTAR" and "TEENAGERS WITH ATTITUDE" are unofficial fan made films that re-imagine the saga of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Written, Shot, Directed & Edited by Cisco Davis, Jr.
A better question is, why do Hollywood Producers not hire the FANS of the MATERIAL to direct, rather they just hire people like JJ Abrams, or Michael Bay. Because that's a safe bet at the box office but probably will be a terrible movie
@@amike151 if your talking about this fan film, I agree. I love it but have a massive Star Wars feel of it. However if your talking power rangers in general, I don’t see it being a Star Wars clone at all. Not to mention super sentai is older than Star Wars. But still I don’t see the resemblance other than this fan film. Btw great film, really loved it. Kinda felt bummed they never reached their goals to make more.
the best part of this is that its absolutely clear that the writers /producers had love for the series. its not just fanservice or fan-fiction. its a tribute to the universe Saban created. you dont just present beloved recognized characters and names in a compelling prequil story, but you respect the original individual characters's tropes, studio decisions, personalities, and relations.
I think the biggest irony is that you had the original Zordon's voice actor, David Fielding, play King Mondo, and Mondo's role in being the one who gave him the "ability," as it were, to become the infamous disembodied head.
This has got to be the most amazing fan film I've ever seen. Only a true Power Rangers fan could create something so faithful to the original series. I really like how you made young Zordon's personality a lot like Tommy's and I love all the references to the wider universe. Brilliant work I salute you
i dont think so ostrich. for one, it wasnt made by a fan of power rangers. and secont it is too bloody and, for my opinin, out of characters for the rangers.
+coolmen7000 That's the point. PRUA was supposed to be a satirical commentary on Hollywood and the trend that has been pervading the industry: that being taking something and making it dark and gritty for the sake of being dark and gritty. And I would hazard a guess that the PRUA movie was made by fans of Power Rangers or they wouldn't have known how to make it NOT Power Rangers.
This is unquestionably one of the greatest fanfilms I have ever seen. Great story and several great actors and actresses. I loved Dimitria at 17:07 . Soo beautiful and I'm disappointed she had such a small part given her talent. I can't wait to see what other works you guys put out. This was fantastic.
I gotta give you guys a standing ovation. The story told in this movie is so powerful. I could immerse myself in the universe, feel how Rita would've felt and everything. If Hollywood would ever wanna make a prequel to Power Rangers, you guys should write the script. Awesome job guys.
Amazing! I love everyone on the council. King Mondo negotiating with Zordon. Zordon of Eltar looks amazing fighting Rita Repulsa. But when Rita first played the dragon flute, I gasped so long. I just met with Jason David Frank for the first time on the very day this came out and I loved it. So, it was the perfect day to be a Power Ranger Fan. Thank you for making these films. I can not wait for Teenagers with Attitude 2. Have a Mophinomenal Time!
Rita looks like my son's mom. Minus heavy eyeliner. Black lipstick, short hair...right on the money. I'll never understand that shit. Oh...and great film😉👌🏾. Held my attention.
They should so make this into a real movie and then follow it up with a Power Rangers reboot trilogy based on the first two seasons! They could literally create their own cinematic universe; - Zordon of Eltar (prequel) - MMPR 1: Power Rangers (vs Rita and Goldar, Green Ranger Revealed at End) - MMPR2: Green with Evil (Tommy & Scorpina vs Power Rangers. Tommy Loses his powers at the end) - MMPR3: Lord Zedd arrives and destroys the remaining Power Rangers with the help of Goldar, Zordon creates the white ranger (Tommy) to stop him and retrieve the power coins - Power Rangers: Quest of The Zeo Crystals - This would mainly be for the crystals but also incorporate the Gold Ranger origin - Possible Gold Ranger solo movie - Power Rangers: Shattered Grid - Alternate Timeline, where Tommy breaks free of Rita's spell but chooses to remain at her side. Combines white ranger and green ranger powers. Kills all the power rangers. Prime versions of the power rangers crossover and have to stop him. (based on another fan made series on youtube). This could be a 1, 2 or 3 part movie. White Ranger and Saba vs Evil Tommy (Lord Drakkon). Goldar origin would even be a good idea for a prequel but would need to heavily use CGI. After all that you could literally do any season you want; Psycho Rangers or In Space would be good to see again. Ecliptor was pretty bad ass! Also a Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles cross over movie would be amazing to see. But that would probably never happen. I doubt anything more than a reboot will happen unfortunately lol
This is a really good fan film. Excellent use of the mythos and some very awesome twists on the background story that proceeds what we all know as Mighty Morphin. Only true fans can appreciate the small nods.
divatox did some stupid things and helping Rita out for something, while Rita was giving her money and coins so she can just own and the green dagger, the six power coins, and the Megazord. for what exactly why did Zordon press the button? and alert Space Patrol Delta and SPD when Divatox didn't know that much about Rita.
I came here to honor of the Legend himself who made Power Rangers so iconic today. 🐉🐅⭐🚘🦕 R.I.P. Jason David Frank. Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger. May the POWER protect you. 💚🤍♥️🖤
Dude you rocked this film so out of this world!! I loved all the power rangers reference from the tv series as well as the all characters in it. You did a amazing job! It was a slow movie it portrayed all of the elements of a prequel to the power rangers. I was locked in and wanted more after it was done! You also added a lot of little things that I enjoyed from the tv series. It was just so awesome dude! I want like five more episodes like this!! I want to point out to the fans this is what power rangers a fresh new series that is an hour long that is well writing and put together. It doesn't have to be a super dark film just something more adult and so on. I'm sure alot of have been waiting for a film to come about how the power coins came to be.
This was the best thing ever! I really liked enjoyed it! I really like how you meshed the different elements of the PR universe together. Soni Aralynn really stole the performance in this with her portrayal of Divatox.
For a French PR fan like me ... IT'S AMAZING. It was my favourite serie when I was a little boy, and see you make a fan film send me to my nostalgics moment to watch Zordon on TV. I follow the experience since a year, and I understand how difficult it was to release this film. I'm 23 now, but watching your film I had 10 again. So, thank you very much, this film is awesome !! I'm waiting for TWA now, I'm so excited :) (sorry for my english, I'm a little bit rusty ^^)
darkservantofheaven lol that was totally intentional nod. That's the beauty of fan films lol! Dragonball Z, Star Wars, Star Trek, Shadow of the Colossus, Mass Effect, tons of nods everywhere lol!
Zordon Fanfilm dude, thats awsome. I love how you guys gave the Dragonzord the roar of Godzilla and how Zordon is like Raiden from Mortal Kombat....this is the dopest fan film Ive ever seen. even better than that R-rated one with that guy from Dawsons creek
For what this was, it was really good. Im glad that ive followed and waited, When the Dragon Dagger first appears I got chills, then when it was played I went all tingly and couldnt stop smiling! You have served my childhoodd memories a great justice this day & for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
your passion really shows in this film. I have been following this project almost since the beginning and it is waaaaaaay better tha nI could have imagined. congratulation Cisco, this is amazing!
although I saw a lot of criticism of 2017, my opinion is the critics are morons. 2017 was EVEN BETTER THAN THIS. RITA WAS EATING PEOPLE. BILLY WAS STEALING CARS. DONUTS WERE BLOWN UP. NO FUCKS WERE GIVEN. I LOVED IT. XD
Fantastic film! Not only does it give these characters a great backstory to go off of, but it still stays true to who they were originally, while giving them character depth we never saw before, especially in the case of Zordon. I kinda figured that Zordon was a badass in his time, but holy smokes! Plus the idea of making Rita a sympathetic villain is great, as well as giving Zordon's coat of arms the White Ranger emblem. Not only that, but we even get introduced to some minor characters and we can see the seeds being sown of what's to come. But even then, we can still only guess. Keep up the amazing work! I can only hope that Lionsgate's reboot film is as engaging as this.
I think that this is the closest that we will ever get to an origin story, unless the new power rangers film touches upon an origin story for zordon and rita repulsa
I hope so, I had an idea what if Zordon and Rita were brother and sister, twins actually, and their father was the king of Eltar and Rita was jealous of how her father treated Zordon better than her, then something happens and her father banishes Rita then she returns, kills her father, takes over Eltar and Zordon leads a rebellion against her
Divatox was outstanding! Really took the mannerisms of the original character, and played it off so beautifully as a younger version. I never thought a lot about that character, but this made me really enjoy and appreciate the character more. Great performance Soni Aralynn
Chris Cantada Force I've been meaning to get in touch with you Chris! I had an idea where we could collaborate on TWA2 should it get funded. Expect to hear from me soon!
+CISCO DAVIS Hey Cisco, quick question. Did you and your production crew create your own music for this fan film, or did you use music from other places. If so, could you name the music?
i thought the same way, it would be diffrerent mask but much cooler, also goldar wearing "maximus helmet" did seem bit abnormal , rita is bit better as old rita , sadly original died so did the voice of zordon
+VulpisFoxfire my guess would be that it's coz we all know how Zordons face is supposed to look, so putting a mask on it we can imagine that, but i dunno ^^
Great job! There's a few small hiccups but otherwise this is a really great fan film that does a lot right, is well shot, well edited, great special effects for your first time, and a lot of fun easter eggs. Wonderful, I'm very happy for you!
Christian Anderson Yeah, did anyone notice that the color of Zordon's beam is the same as the Vegeta's purple Galick Gun wave and Rita's bean is the same as Cell's Green Perfect Kamehameha wave and the it changes to the Goku's Kamehameha wave in a blue color?
Ricardo Ribeiro I'm a huge DBZ fan. Even that shot of the beam being deflected into outer space and the gaping reactions from Goldar and Scorpina were nods to DBZ. Cant wait for Dragonball Super to come out.
Having not watched it yet, I can say for certainty that I was not prepared to see this show up already. XD Drink a Monster and turn down the lights. It's Show TIME!
Great film, you guys! I really liked Divatox, she's very fun, sassy, and sexy! I hope she eventually gets her revenge somehow! I also liked Dimitria, she's very funny with a fun attitude! Alpha's final form was also pretty cool! I also appreciate the new direction you're taking Rita! Overall, this was just a really cool fan film! I've always loved prequels and origin stories (but only if they're origins we've never experienced before) ! Very well done! You can bet I'll be rewatching this later!
Kendall Hackney Unfortunately I didn't even know who Gosei even was until halfway through filming this fan film. Had I known I probably would've incorporated him somehow. I stopped watching after In Space so my knowledge of Power Rangers after the Zordon Era was over is very limited.
I loved this whole film, I loved the characterizations of all the characters especially Divatox. This went beyond all my expectations for this film, you guys went above and beyond, I can't wait for this saga to continue!!
Damn so not only was Zordon the original power ranger but he was The White Ranger and he defeated Rita and her goons alone which the Power Rangers could never do this just gives me a whole other appreciation for Zordon
Frankie Morales you do know this isn't canon right? its just a fan project lol that's like saying you have more respect for Abe Lincoln because of the vampire hunter movie lol
skaionex Its cannon as of right now for me since we know very little to nothing about Zordon for me it solves all the small plot holes in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers It also shows us that Zordon was indeed a badass that had experience that would after go on to help the rangers as a kid i always imagined Zordon as the original white ranger which strikes a chord with my theories about him being realized in this fan film what i'm saying is that this film makes too much sense to me
robert riojas maybe but power rangers use suits to power themselves im talking about Zordon being the living embodiment of a power ranger without the suit perhaps he had to create a white power coin from his essence and a suit to go along with it because he himself was a power ranger or the first ever
This is what dislike about this video. Zordon didn't create the white ranger power until Tommy lost the green ranger powers in the show. It makes more sense for him to be the original red ranger.
I like these effects. This is really impressive, especially for a fan film. Well acted to. (also, being a product of the early 2000's I nerded out a bit when they mentioned the S.P.D.)
Years ago I had a rant about 'some shows need prequels to help explain things' and a more 'recent' rant I did was a 30 minute 'barrage' against the Power Rangers starting two lines of the theme... Rita: "Ah, after 10,000 years, I'm FREE! It's time to Conquer EARTH!" Zordon: "Alpha, Rita has escaped. Recruit five teenagers with attitudes..." I'm glad someone is at least going out to 'explain' this. It brings a smile to my face.
I enjoyed every last bit of it. I always was confused how Zordon ended up as a floating "spirit head" (yes, I'm a noob). This is AWESOME!!! Keep up the amazing work..
I never knew about this project until yesterday. I usually hate fan films but this was FANTASTIC and has been eager to watch more. You got a new fan in me man.
Not gonna lie, I thoroughly enjoyed this. You kept to the spirit of the original show while adding your own touch to the story. That's not an easy thing to do well, but you did. I especially enjoyed the fact that Zordon was the original White Ranger, as well as Alpha 5's appearance being a suit and the touch of ancient astronaut theory thrown in. Well done!
As a longtime Power Rangers fan since MMPR, I was very impressed with this fan movie. I loved the many references from the canon. Shoot, this even looks better than MMPR: The Movie, and that's saying a lot, coming from me.
I've always felt the same way. There's two series that deserves prequel series and/or movies. Transformers and Power Rangers. So much history and potential.
+Zordon Fanfilm I'm so confused yet so enamored right now. I've never seen a movie that looks so low budget in every sense from special effects all the way to the choice of cast, but at the same time had me waiting for the next scene throughout the course of the whole movie. That tells me, even more than the importance of budget, is storyline and content. You did a fantastic job in spite of the obvious shortcomings. I would say that this is A+ material. I even think that you should pitch it to Saban, as another high budget theater movie. I think Power Rangers fans all over the world deserve the origin of Zordon.
Amazing back story to zordon and this explains everything that he lived amongst them all...let alone I never knew zordon was the original white ranger so Rita being the green ranger explains it all when it comes to tommy Oliver i love it
Effing amazing!!!!!!!!!! I love how you've used all characters involved in the zordon era. It's a nice sense of gratitude to the canon! I'm so very glad I waited. And I want to say thanks. I feel like you've answered so many questions I've had since I was a kid!!!! Kudos 5⭐️
Wow I love your Divatox and Elgar. And your death of Rito certainly explains his skeletal form in the series. I love how much thought you guys put into all of this.
How do I even describe how amazing that was? It was everything I'd hoped it would be and then some! You're a fantastic filmmaker and I am looking forward to your next project(s)!
Mindblowing... Seriously, Lionsgate & Saban really have to step their game up. Of course they are huge companies and therefore they have lots and lots of freedom to film but this here is such a big piece of art and amazingly well done, thinking that it was supported by fans and made independently. Still I can't believe how creative this is. Really enjoyed all the small references like the space patrol delta mentioned and others. I'm always impressed how well done some fan films are compared to the big company budget ones. Still speechless. Saban has to come up with really good ideas to top that. Cheers & May the Power protect you.
Zordon Fanfilm thank you so much for an amazing movie. This one was so worth the wait. I can't wait to see how this continues. Just once again Thank you so much. May the power protect you
What people didn't realize was this was the explanation to every Ranger series pre Ranger Galaxy. From Rita to Andromeda (Karone). It did include where Masked Rider was involved in the crossover with the Power Rangers (referring to the one episode where Dex's family came in the picture, King Lexion and Count Drago)
My major complaint about Zordon of Eltar is SABA's voice. It's really hard to understand him. Other than that the 3d had it's flaws but the plot makes up for it. It's really impressive what you accomplished with a low budget. And it's kinda funny to imagine that Trini been blond was Alpha's fault. She was brunette before been teleported.
Zordon Fanfilm I don't think the problem is the speed but how his voice was edited. I can understand all the other characters just fine but with SABA there are some words (not all) that are hard to comprehend with his robotic voice which is weird because Alpha and Mondo's are ok.
One mistake. In this canon, Rito is Rita's elder brother. In the original series he specifically asked Rita "what do you think of your baby brother now?" And I'm such a geek that I remembered this. Even so, it's nicely made. I love the Easter eggs... everything from Count Dragen (spelling) to Ivan Ooze. Also *shiver* at 20:35.... God, that fanfare still gives me a chill even after all these years.
This was pretty interesting. I'm going to assume this is part of an alternate universe since, between this and Teenagers with Attitude, there are some differences with the TV series. Not that it's a bad thing mind you, since Power Rangers has embraced the idea of a multiverse. The biggest difference, in my opinion, is Rita herself. Between losing her family, and no Lord Zedd in sight, she's ironically closer to her counterpart from the Sentai. I wouldn't be surprised if she summons Lokar at some point and have bring him resurrect Rito, with the catch being he comes back in his monster form. The other big question I have is that if Mondo and the Machine Empire are a thing in this universe, is there a Zeo Crystal? Either way, thank you for this fan film.
