Hi, I saw a piece on American Journal awhile ago following up on Axelrod, the
guy who played Zedd's voice, and the showed clips of an 8 minute short film
that aired in 2 minute segments after Power Rangers Zeo a few months ago to
promote the upcoming T:APRM release. It's supposed to have Zedd versus the red
and pink zeo rangers (no unmorphed shots, and the voices all wrong, maybe
Axelrod in jail?) and the destruction of Serpentera.
I'd prefer NTSB format but I'm willing to pay 20-30 american for a copy in
either format.

I saw this story too- the movie looked really cool, especially when Zedd kicks
Tommy hard.
Are there any pictures of this on the web?

Not that I've seen, and I've been looking. Does anyone have a tape of this to
make snaps of?

I remember this... it aired after the zeo eps down here just like the 'it's
coming' ads, except I think these only aired once to promo the movie. it was
pretty bad. Not the plot- that was good. It looked like all the effects were
done in some basement studio- they were pretty bad. I think I have 3 of the 5
segments on tape somewhere, I'll dig through and post plot summary if anyone
wants it?

Ok, I dug through my tapes, and I only have 2 of the 5 segments, so I'll
try to fill in the rest.

Part 1 of 5
It begins with a shot of the command center from the outside, and you can
hear Alpha 5 talking. He counts down from ten and there's this rocket flash
taking off from the tube of the command center (badly fx'd into a PRZ shot)
then they zoom in on the rocket taking off and you can see it's Super Zeo Zord
Five (the star shaped one, I think they used the toy on a string for this,
remember, the fx re REALLY bad) They switch to the inside (!) of the SZZ5
cockpit and they have 'Tommy' and 'Kat' talking to Alpha 5 on the viewscreen.
I day 'Tommy' because they both have Australian accents. Another surprise-
the Alpha 5 costume used is the one from the first movie! (you only see it
for about 5 seconds) 'Tommy' and 'Kat' do the exposition, Zedd has been
settin up Serpentera in the asteroid belt and it preparing to attack Earth, so
'Tommy' and 'Kat' decided to head the bole off at the pass (there is no
mention of Rita) the last shot of this segment has them streaking towards the
asteroids.

Part 4 of 5

I don't really remember what heppened between these two, but segemtn four
begins with Tommy and Kat inside Serpentera (it's just a set of catwalks and
hallways) being chased by Zedd and Goldar (NOT the movie costumes) They lure
them into an room where they'll have room to fight and 'Tommy' summons the
'Zeo 5 Mega Sword' (not the sword with the star design on it, it was like a
japanese dueling blade, they never showed it close) and he goes sword-to-staff
with 'Zedd' (LMAO at his accent) with lots of spark effects. meanwhile, Kat
is dodging Goldar and Goldar accidentily hits a box on the wall and Zed calls
out 'You fool, you've hit the main power box!'
The last shot is of Serpentera sinking intot he eatth's atmosphere and it
begins to glow on the bottom.


I was sick the week this aired, and I don't really remember a whole leot,
but I do recall that the last bit ends with Kat and Tommy flying away in their
zord as Serpentera (they used the toy) explodes over the ocean.

Like yeah, I saw this the first time they aired zeo. It was pretty lame, you
know, really badly done. I heard that the cast in it were left overs from the
first film who were angry about not being recast for the turbo one, but who
knows? I'd make a copy if I could, but the thing was so bad I didn't bother
taping it.
