Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Dana made sense and I could even understand Carter. But why did Lightspeed create a team of civilians? Wouldn't it have made more sense to train a military team?

Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
That was pretty odd since Lightspeed was a military organization. If They were the best canidates wouldn't they recruit and train them well in advance?
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Most likely Hexagon selected them. Who were behind Lightspeed anyway. Tommy would believe in civlian Rangers. Since his team were teenage civilians.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Its pretty stupid Dana wasn't the leader over Carter.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Lightspeed did a lot of weird things.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
It was funny because they could have just hired the Space Rangers.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
The Space Rangers mission was to protect against alien invaders. Lightspeed was created solely to deal with the demons. Most Ranger teams became specialized after Space. It was part of Zordons plan before his death and later part of Hexagon's end game.

Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I do agree that Dana should have been leader. But it is odd Mitchell never told her she was going to be part of the project.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Dana should have been the leader. But they ended up messing up the strong character we saw in the first episode.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I like that the Rangers weren't official military. They would have been boring otherwise.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I would have liked it better if they used teenagers.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Power Rangers should always be about teenagers with attitude.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
They should have just used military personal. They could have been recruited fro. other branches.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
They weren't just civilians. They each had select talents and expertise that made them the best candidates for the Lightspeed Powers. Remember Lightspeed was a Rescue Team.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Good point. The Rangers were highly trained professionals for the most part. Especially Carter and Dana.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Hexagon made sure Lightspeed picked the right civlians. Which is actually pretty common for the Ranger teams we have seen. Once they joined Lightspeed they were trained like military anyway.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
This was very odd. And really is hard to explain. Other than plot convenience of course.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
They wanted Rangers that could not think outside of the box and not 100 percent from a military background.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Mitchell used his resources with Lightspeed to secretly train all five. They just didn't realize it.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Carter was a firefighter and was made for Lightspeed Red. Dana was a paramedic and was part of Lightspeed's Military anyway. Chad had a background with Water. Joel and Kelsey were a stretch. But Joel was a great pilot and Kelsey had the crazy instinct.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
They were more interesting in having highly trained personal. Its just too bad there characters were mostly underwhelming. You have to give it to them for being the first Ranger team to formally train like soldiers.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Once they joined Lightspeed they were no longer civilians. Mitchell had them trained boot camp style and help them to the same standards he expected from Officers.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Mitchell spent a lot of time researching their potential and did comprehensively train them. I think it had to do with who could physically handle the powers. A more extreme example of this is the Titanium Powers, which only Ryan could handle.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I suppose you could say its whack when any mentor recruits civilians. Zordon choosing teenagers is even more crazy than Lightspeed going with civilians.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Especially in real life where its hard to get teenagers to do anything.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Zordon chose teenagers because they are easier to manipulate and can be easy replaced if they are no longer convenient.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
But the MMPR teens were special, thats why Zordon used them. Well except for Kat, but even Zordon isn't perfect.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Hard to believe he would be so niave to allow an evil Ranger to be on the team. I mean at least with Kim she is such a good person you could see how she believed Kat"s lies. But Zordon would be much more experienced and wise.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Kat was.very special. too She wasn't evil , she was free of Rita's spell. Kim was wise to recruit her since she was a Great Ranger.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I like all the Power Rangers. Kimberly was better but Kat wasn't evil.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
Zordon was too affraid adults would find out his true agenda or would just be too hard to control. Even some teens were hard for him to control as it was. Thats why so many of the MMPR Rangers were manipulated into leaving (with them thinking it was on their own terms).
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
This is why I like how the Time Force Rangers...All were trained beforehand and Wes only got the morpher because of the dna lock.
|
Re: Why did Lightspeed Recruit Civilians
I hated the military setting, it was hard for the Rangers to be funny.
