What was better? The 1st one had better action but the plot wasn't good then there was Turbo which I liked but it seemed very DTV.What about you?
Also In PR:TM There was a piug bad guy.What was his name? Was he only in that?

PR The Movie because that was the only movie I saw and I missed the PR Turbo but I didn't like the how the young boy turning into a blue ranger... Also I was getting to other stuff like anime, pc games, and video games...

I like the 1st PR movie over PR: Turbo. Turbo felt too much like a regular TV episode, and a movie.

John-Paul,
You talking about Ivan Ooze? If so, yes, he was only in MMPR:TM. He was sealed up or something, don't really remember.

Power Rangers the Movie. Turbo was one of those series where Power Rangers "Lost Sense" IMO.
Besides, PR: TM had the Ninja Megazord with some cool 3D action including the Frog and Falcon Ninja Zord. The Wolf was cool, too. Plus, the Rangers had the Power Scope and the Power Beam. Don't forget about their metallic suits.
Now for the bad side. Now, I find that Ivan Ooze gooze pretty funny. He also dug up those metallitron insect thingies which eventually fused with Ivan. Although, Ivan's not my fav. enemy.

No.There was a pig guy who worked for Rita and Zed in the movie!

Sorry John-Paul,
I misread what you said, since you added a u to pig in your first post. I thought maybe you had meant pink, even though Ivan ooze was purple.
I looked up MMPR:TM at www.imdb.com . The only character under cast that might be the one your after is Mordant. He is listed right before Goldar, but its been forever since I've seen the movie.

I guess PR: The Movie would be better than PR: Turbo but I liked the ghost ship part of PR: Turbo and the cars.
The pig dude was never in the series, for the movie only he replaced Squat, Finster and that weird bat-like dude, I forgot his name. Also Ivan Ooze was blown to bits in the end so he couldn't really be on the series. :D

My buddy and I are pretty good PR Fans.
Went and saw both movies in the theatre. First one was worth a good laugh, but in retrospect was a really good live-action, martia-arts, kid flick. As good if not better than the first Turtle movie!
It was fast, kinetic, and high fun-fantasy action with some really good martial art stunts pulled off by the actors themselves.
Good special effects(for a kids movie) and Ivan Ooze was a good over the top bad guy.
Two thumbs up!
Turbo: A Power Ranger's Movie was god awful from the title! That's the most embarassing PR title to date, and that includes titles like Day of the Dumpster.
Fights didn't start until 45 minutes into the movie and when they did come they were fully lackluster.
I found myself quite confused that they'd give up their Zeo Crystal, most powerful thing in the universe powers for...... "car power"???????
It was good to see Jason and Kimberly back, but it wasn't worth my time or money to see it in the theatre.
And you know there's a problem when the TV show's Zord battles are more spectacular than the movies. But that's what you get when you keep changing powers like that for no reason.
Glad they dumped that format.
To Turbo's credit, its Japanese Sentai (http://www.classichero.com) counterpart, Carranger (http://www.classichero.com/carranger.html) was pretty amusing. ^_^
They had a reason to be using "car power". They were mechanics and the show was satirical comedy.
