10 Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed In Power Rangers

Power Rangers fans, rejoice - the cinematic reboot of the campy, cheesy show about those colour-coordinated cadets is finally here. While it's receiving mixed reviews from critics, longterm followers of the franchise will find much to love in this slightly more grown-up take from Project Almanac director Dean Israelite.

7) The Morphin Grid

There’s much talk in the movie of “the Morphin Grid.” We don’t get a proper explanation, but it appears to be the energy force from which the Rangers derive their power.

This is in line with the Morphin Grid of the original show. Much like the Speed Force from the mythos of DC’s The Flash, the Grid is the slightly undefined energy field to which every Ranger is connected. In the show, it’s established that it’s maintained by the balance of good and evil, but this is not mentioned in the movie. Conversely, the Grid has never had the power to resurrect the dead in the series, but it does just that to Billy Cranston here.

Speaking of morphing, we probably don’t need to explain that Jason’s cry of “it’s morphin’ time!” when the Rangers first morph into their armour is a reference to the famous catchphrase from the original show.
