Eddie's version of the finale?

Poweranimals · 10-28-2009, 07:44 PM

I'm kinda surprised this hasn't ended up here yet. And yes, I did a search. This was posted by Cmndr Crayfish over at Rangercrew. For what it's worth, it sounds awesome. Most likely better than what we'll get.

The finale was "Ranger Black," where after Venjix is destroyed and Summer finally chooses which boy she wanted to be with, the sleeper programming in Dillon activates. The memories of he and Tenaya together were falsified and meant to lead the Rangers into taking him into their ranks and allowing him greater trust. Dillon NEVER EXISTED AT ALL. Now it falls to the rest of the team to destroy Venjix once and for all, even now that he controls the Morphing Grid.

Wait...so....what?

They beat Venjix, Dillion isnt real, then they fight Venjix again?

Poweranimals · 10-28-2009, 07:49 PM

Dillon was a backup body for Venjix apparently.

Crazy Davey · 10-28-2009, 07:54 PM

I'm not sure if I like that idea... I guess I would need to see it, in order to get what they were going for.

Or maybe hear more details about it.

AbareHunter · 10-28-2009, 08:02 PM

I can still see Venjix using Dillon as his body (I downloaded all the available eps, but havent watched past ep 25 yet). I also have to say I rather like the idea of Ranger Black being a sleeper agent.

D-I-L-L-O-N.

There is only one "I" in his name, and it is located before the first "L." There is no second "I" in his name. There never has been. There never will be.

Do you do this for just him or for all of the other RPM ranger's' names as well?

It's not like there are millions of people misspelling Ziggy's name for no reason...

That ending sounds decent on paper but thinking about it for half a second makes me believe it's utterly ridiculous. The best plan a super computer that has taken over the entire world can come up involves creating a new body that kicks his ass for an entire year? I don't buy it. I remember a little while ago people were kicking around the idea that Dr. K experiments with time travel and saves the day. Then everyone started bitching because it was a cop out. Well, this? This would be a cop out. There's a difference between a clever twist and pulling an ending out of your ass. Dillon being a sleeper the whole time feels too random to be a neat twist. I call bullshit.

Wow. What an awesomely baseless statement. What exactly makes you think a couple sentences synopsis of supposedly what could have been is better than a finale that we haven't seen yet when the series hasn't really dipped in quality since Eddie left? Do you have an actual qualification to that statement or are you just saying it because it's, "ZOMG EDDY!!1?/"

careful. that could be his real name.

now for the finale.

i want to say that for the "end of it all17seasons" the villain turning out to actually be one of the good guys sure as hell would be awesome. i mean all these years and we finally see it happen.

it makes sense.

the virus in Dillon.
Venjix virus

the other times he was "downloaded" into a body. makes sense if a virus is planted in something and let it slowly grow so the carrier acquires knowledge of something beforehand so when it takes over, it uses all that is knows against its rivals.

i wonder if the memories turned on the virus inside him or vice versa. Since it first appeared Dr K herself has not known what will happen when it takes complete control of Dillon's body.

I want to say that there may be bits and pieces in each episode that makes it seem it was first thought to go that route. I may even add the episode description that says that Venjix has many hybrids already in the city awaiting for his control. Maybe Dillon will lead them.

How did Dillon get free to begin with? that was never explained.

So i am to expect Venjix to be 'destroyed" in End Game and then the next episode he awakens in Dillon.

Let the showdown begin!!!!

pretty cool too.

Christmas is the time for giving.
the day after will be the time for taking as Dillon's life for that matter.

however i will be so

[as will many] if they pull one of these out there ass!!!!!

No big reveal about Venjix being "Forever Red" Venix? That'd be really lame to name a character that and never do anything with it. I really hope Lynn doesn't let that opportunity goto waste. I have faith in Judd's ability to put together an amazing finale though whether he addresses the Venjix issue or not. The man did "Chase into Space", "Countdown to Destruction", "Journey's End", and even "The Fate of Lightspeed" kicked ass. The only finale of his that was less than stellar was "The End of Time", and that's in large part due to him having been broken down and just giving up when he wasn't able to do the things he was promised with the series.

Actually, Venjix was going to be revealed as Rita and Zedd's OTHER son. He was trapped in cyberspace like Shredder was in the last season of TMNT.

PlayingMonk · 10-28-2009, 07:52 PM

Oh shit! That would have totally kicked ass.

DAMN YOU DISNEY FOR FIRING EDDIE!!!!!

Darky · 10-28-2009, 08:23 PM

Damnit, that would have ruled.

Disney better have kept that!

SeanRider · 10-28-2009, 08:24 PM

I cant get upset until I hear what Judd's finale is all about...

PR 4ever · 10-28-2009, 08:30 PM

Lynn's ending is a Disneyfied version of Eddie's to a large degree, you'll probably see Dillon turn on the Rangers, but it won't be of his own free will, and there WILL be a way out of that situation that then ties into the final battle with Venjix

Aberration · 10-28-2009, 08:27 PM

Wow... I'm not sure which is a bigger kick to the nuts: that ending, or the fact that we're not getting it

MoonsKnight · 10-28-2009, 08:29 PM

... Except for the fact that it's all a lie made up in Chris Funaro's overactive imagination. >_>

Truncated Power Rangers · 10-28-2009, 08:36 PM

Eddie's version of the finale is VR Troopers 2.0?

I'm sorry, but Chris isn't a justifiable source for this kind of thing.
