Oh look another terrible list from Watchmojo
10. Zedd enters the Command Center-Not really “dark” just suspenseful.
9. Master Org destroys the Wild Zords-Lol wut? That’s not dark. How did Master Org killing Cole’s parents, actual human beings, not make this list. Somehow destroying toys is darker?
8. Dark Wish- It’s a Wonderful Life type plot isn’t dark. This story wanted to be the Buffy episode “The Wish” so bad and it failed miserably
7. Lord Drakken- The first one on this list that makes sense
6. Ransik kills Alex- It was certaintly brutal. I’ll give them this one
5. Trakeena’s final attack on Terra Venture- Suicide Bombers is pretty dark. Especially post 9/11
4. Rito destroys the Thunderzord- Yeah it was a pretty brutal scene and graphic for Power Rangers. Doesn’t deserve to be this high
3. Zordon’s Sacrifice- LMAO are you kidding me? Nothing about that was dark
2. Kendrix’s death- lol Kendrix’s death wasn’t really that dark it was so damn sugar coated I wasn’t even sure if she died or not when I was a kid
1. RPM as a whole- RPM really isn’t that dark. Lost Galaxy and Time Force are honestly darker seasons. Dr.K’s backstory is dark
Honorable mentions Captain Mitchell’s deal with Diabolical, Ransik’s backstory, and Dayu and Deker’s backstory are all darker than most of the things on that list.
And HOW THE HELL DID MAGNA DEFENDER’S BACKSTORY GET EXCLUDED YOU KNOW THE ONE THAT HAD HIS 10-YEAR OLD SON MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD WHILE HIS HOME PLANET WAS RAVAGED BY SCORPIUS’s army.
My top 10 “darkest” Power Ranger moments
10. Ransik kills Alex
9. Trakeena’s attaxk on Terra Venture
8.Astronema gets reprogrammed with cybernetics
7. The Final Fight in the Power Chamber
6. Dayu and Deker’s backstory
5. Captain Mitchell’s deal with Diabolical
4. Ransik and Frax’s backstory
3. Master Org kills Cole’s parents
2. Magna Defender’s backstory
1. Dr.K’s backstory

My top 10 “darkest” Power Ranger moments 10. Ransik kills Alex 09. Trakeena’s attack on Terra Venture 08. Astronema gets reprogrammed with cybernetics 07. The Final Fight in the Power Chamber 06. Dayu and Deker’s backstory 05. Captain Mitchell’s deal with Diabolical 04. Ransik and Frax’s backstory 03. Master Org kills Cole’s parents 02. Magna Defender’s backstory 01. Dr. K’s backstory I think the reason why the Magna Defender's backstory was excluded from the list is because WatchMojo is collecting votes from a lot of butthurt MMPR nostalgic fanboys and fangirls who have never given Lost Galaxy a chance. Which is sad. But, yeah. His backstory should have been on this list. Now, I will argue that Kendrix's sacrifice in "The Power of Pink" did actually made me cry, but I can't really say thatit was as dark as the Magna Defender losing his son. The Wild Zords being killed off by the Master Org in "The End of the Power Rangers, Part I" is probably better handled in Wild Force than it was in Gaoranger since to them, it was a personal battle. But not so much for Gaoranger, since there was no personal struggles for them in their show. But, yeah...Dr. Adler giving up his humanity and becoming the Master Org was very dark. Equally as dark as Dr. K and Frax's backstories, respectively. Sadly, Deker and Dayu's backstories are okay. But, that still doesn't make up for the fact that they were horribly-acted and badly-written as characters. Not even Rick Medina's performance as Deker was strong enough to save Samurai and Super Samurai from sucking as a new Power Rangers series of the Neo-Saban era, nowadays. Maybe, if Samurai and Super Samurai were better handled and better written without being horribly-rushed in its' production for six months at the time, we could have gotten a much better show than what we have actually gotten from the series of Samurai and Super Samurai. |
