Zordon
 
I know he's destroyed and everything but if he had a son, what do you think his name would be? It probably would be Zordon Jr. If there's a future episode involving zordon's son in trouble on Eltar, do you think the rangers will go there?

I never understood how Andros breaking Zordon's tube could have killed him or destroyed him in the first place. Early episodes said that Zordon was trapped in another dimention, and the tube was only a communications device for him to talk to Alpha and the Rangers. HE didn't actually exsist inside the tube. Destroying the tube should have done nothing more than break Zordon's way of communicating with Earth.

Perhaps a later season will touch on this and show Zordon being found and rescued.

Zordon was freed from the time warp in the beginning of Turbo, right before he left for his home planet.

I loved that Countdown to Destruction finale! Losing Zordon was a bit like losing a relative. Part of the old show died with him when that happened and Judd Lynn did a fab job with the writing and that was the beauty of Saban's writing team. I watched the finale of Mystic Fate and didn't even shed a tear because I thought it was that bad, Leelee hooking up with Phineas WTF!!! and the dubbing job the actress provided for Nikki was awful and so obvious, Barbara Goodson did a better job dubbing Carla Perez's lines in MMPR. Disney is PVC to Saban's high quality leather!

Re: Zordon
 
Im going to be honest with you.
I wouldnt listen to zorodn.
If i was the red ranger i wouldnt have killed him.
Id rather try to save zorodn and the world by fighting everyone myself whether i died or not
id rather take the chance to save everyone than the guaranteed chance to kill all evil at the sacrifice of a shining light

The Phantom Ranger from Turbo has long been rumored to be Zordon's son.

exactly. Zordon's physical essence was never in the tube while in the Command Center/Power Chamber so no matter what happened to the tube he couldn't die from the tube's destruction since it was only seen as a communication channel. Lerigot freed him from the time warp and therefore Zordon was able to physically travel pretty freely for the first time in years... however when Dark Specter captured him he was placed inside another tube and not a time warp and inside Dark Specter's tube was actually the physical essence of Zordon himself.

Now in the case of the name of Zordon's son. I think it could be any of the following names:

Zordon Jr.
Zojur for Zordon Jr.
Zalpha for a combo of Zordon and Alpha.
Zortar for a combo of Zordon and Eltar.

It's great to think that his identity would have been revealed in a part 3 for CTD.

I personally wouldn't have wanted him to be related to Zordon at all, but maybe from the same solar system or planet.

yea it's great to think of that indeed too bad it didn't happen.

I would assume he would have to be from Eltar since his power was from Eltar. Dimitria presumes to him to be an Eltarian voyager but whether he was an Eltarian voyager or not is hard to say.

If he was revealed in C2D the word was he would have just been a stunt guy in a suit. So his idenity would have been someone new. Like Omega Ranger at the end of SPD, but longer than a 10 sec appearance.

Zordon deserved the die anyway. He was a manipulator and if it wasn't for him there would be no war. He always made teenagers fight his battles. So it was only right for him to finally do something himself.

there would still be a war however since Rita and Zordon had been having their war for 10,000 years and because stupid astronauts freed Rita he needed to recruit beings that could fight her since he was unable to and Alpha wouldn't have been able to fight since he wasn't created to be a soldier.

Are you seriously telling me if someone attacks you that you're just going to take the beating and not defend yourself?

Zordon could have stopped the war in the beginning if he didn't wait around and have others fight for him. Zordon should have been more agressive and ended the war before it even started. Instead he was a coward who waited for the shit to hit the fan before he did anything.

how hilarious someone with such a massive ego would say that. How do you know he didn't try to? Can you see in the past? The only one that's a coward is you because all you want to be is a massive hater. You can't even say 1 single positive thing about anything in the series... every single thing with you is all negative. I've heard of people being a negative nancy but you're worse than that.

Fact is all we do know is Zordon and Rita had been waging war for years (at least 10,000 years if the Fan Club video is anything to go by) and even though most flashbacks only show Zordon's soldiers fighting Rita's monsters that doesn't mean he didn't do anything. You can't just factually claim that he did nothing when it's entirely possible he tried fighting but failed.

Zordon was a manupiulator in a lot of ways. But everything he did was for good. He is the reason why the forces of good won the war. He was far from a coward. Due to his involvement in the war he lost his body and wound up stuck in a time warp for ten thousand years. Once that happened it was hard for him to directly get involved until "Countdown To Destruction".

Its silly to call Zordon a coward. Zordon was the leader of all good when he was alive. He did everything he could to protect the galaxy. Even sacrificing his life force to save it. The war couldn't.be avioded.

Come on massive ego , its a children's show. You're reading into it way too much. Zordon was a hero to all the kids and would never be written to do anything wrong.

Yes Zordon was a manipulator in a lot of ways but his manipulation is what eventually lead to a victory over the United Alliance of Evil. I agree completely with you in regards to him being unable to do much of anything once he was caught in the time warp since all he could do was communicate with the people of Earth through it his hands were tied otherwise.

I completely agree. He was the leader of all good forces when he was alive and he tried to do everything that he could in order to protect not just the galaxy but the universe and when the chips were down he realized the only way to stop the United Alliance of Evil was to sacrifice himself even though that meant he would die... a coward does not sacrifice themself a coward continues to fight the good fight until they're dead themselves.

indeed it's a kids show. The show is marketed towards kids so it's never going to be as dark or gritty as stuff like Smallville, Cops and some of those various shows that air on NBC, ABC and FOX. Those shows are made with adults in mind Power Rangers itself is not made with adults in mind it is made with kids in mind.

Zordon was a true hero. He couldn't stop the war but he sure made sure the Rangers had a chance to win it.

I do think the show outgrew Zordon. It was time to move on. But he was still a cool mentor for the Rangers.

MattEmily 02/25/15 10:38 PM

Re: Zordon
 
Indeed the series did eventually outgrow Zordon but I do wish he had a happy ending instead of him being captured and being killed.

It seems like only the Rangers themselves get happy endings.
