  • I'm sorry, are these the teamups that we all came to know and love?

    Wormhole: There's a hole in the plots!

    What the hell just happened? Seriously, did Kalish have too many drinks while scribbling crap on the storyboard and also put sleeping pills in Jackie's cofee before submitting it? By far the worst teamups ever. Last year was just amazing and I expected more from this year. Alas, it failed, heck this puts the TF/LR one on the top.

    The DT got shafted again and for what? "Let's use some sentai footage that we're never going to use ever again because we have excuses for them!

    Moreover, no-one-gets-inside. Nuff said.moreless

    i've been a fan since i was younger. and it really brought back the original ideals of the season 1. I think that's why this was such a huge season for Jetix.

    Great Job on a great season.
    I'm happy to see John Tui back in the saddle with Mystic Force!

  • Not as good as I was expecting...

    After Thunder Storm, the crossover of Dino Thunder and Ninja Storm, I was expecting another incredible duo of episodes for SPD and Dino Thunder. Unfortunately, I was greatly dissapointed. Although this one is definitely better than History, I was hoping for a great battle that ended the one of Thuder Storm. Instead, all we got was both the battlizers and z-rex blaster with Canine Cannon, as opposed to every power (besides the zords) that each teams had. What's more, they couldnt even get Jason David Frank, and whilst I understand that they might not have been ABLE to get him, that doesnt make me feel any less annoyed. However, it had some good points, and a few funny lines, such as Crugers "Cheese"..."Uh...yeah. I think I'd better...".moreless

    This was not my favorite story. Everything started off so well. The emperor decides to go back in time and conqur earth before the creation of SPD. Sound good, right? Wrong! I was looking forward to seeing Mesogog and Gruumm team up or something. I would think that the troobian ship would have triggered something! That was just plain stupid to me.

    I also don't like the fact that Jason David Frank didn't voice Dr. O. It was alright, but they could have planned this crossover long before Dino Thunder Ended, that way we would have the real Dr. O's voice. I also don't see why the rangers had to lose their memory. Time Force kept their memory didn't they? Unless SPD was the time when the started the whole erasing the time travel memories, which kind of seems interesting now.

    The only good thing that I really like about this episode is that we see Mora, finally drawing some fearsome warriors. That's about my only liking of this episode, as Mora has drawn some really sorry monsters. Remember Bugglesworth? Just plain silly! At last Mora draws some warriors worthy of Gruumm!

    This episode was average at best.moreless

    • Emperor Grumm: NO! I'll go down there and finish them off, myself! Mora: NOT such a good idea, your Hornship. (as the Wormhole is seen closing) Looks like the wormhole's closing. If we don't go back, we're NEVER going back. Emperor Grumm: No matter, I'll defeat Earth now. Mora: Fine, but then you'll also going to have to re-conquer all the other planets and galaxies you've already defeated. Because since it's 2004, None of that's happened yet! So if I were you... (Grumm growls at her) Maybe... Emperor Grumm: Very well. (his ship takes off) Edit
    • Conner: Hey, guys, what's up? Kira: Ethan's given us a history lesson on something he's learned on his handheld "geekboy." Ethan: All right, you're right. It's not ancient galactic history. Kira: Finally. Ethan: But it could be the future. Conner: Remember, it's just a game. [Gruumm's warship comes into view and hovers over the school] Edit
    • Commander Cruger: Gruumm is gone, and so is his ship. Sky: Yes! He's retreated. Jack: WE WON!!! (he and the other teens cheer) Commander Cruger: ENOUGH! Jack: Hello?! It's celebration time. You said it yourself. Gruumm is gone! Commmander Cruger: Yes, but I know my enemy. He does not retreat. Edit
