Mighty Morphin’ Power….Cell Phones?!

So I’m watching Power Rangers: Mystic Force because nothing else is on television and I’m awesome like that, and no longer do the Rangers morph my screaming “It’s morphin’ time” like in the olden days of dubbed Japanese action sequences.

No, these days they wave their cell phones around.

Not only do they do this for morphing, but they do it to call their Zords (because apparently randomly screaming out “I call on the power of the Thunderzords!” or playing that dagger/flute was considered too 20th century).

I can only imagine what calling them on the phone must be like.

Ranger: Hey, yeah, you need to come down to Angel Grove to help me destroy this guy in a Venus Flytrap suit that spontaneously grew a mile high.

Zord: Sorry, you broke up for a second. You said this guy suddenly joined the Mile High Club?

Ranger: No! He GREW a mile high.

Zord: And what do you expect me to do about it?

Ranger: Destroy him!

Zord: Fuck you. Hanna Montana is on.

Ranger: Dude! What the fuck?

Zord: Hey man, it’s not my fault you’re too much of a pussy to finish you’re own battles.

Ranger: Fucking hell man! It’s YOUR JOB to come in when we need help. That’s why we fucking built you!

Zord: Fuck you asshole.

Ranger: Why the hell am I even trying to work with you? (*to the other rangers*) Does anyone still have that talking sword that could call the White Tigerzord?

Zord: They got rid of that shit after the first movie.

Ranger: …oh yeah. Shit.

Zord: Maybe you can call Tor “the shuttle zord”. I doubt he’s doing anything.

Ranger: …who the fuck is that?

Zord: Never mind. You still need me to bail out your sorry ass?

Ranger: …!

Zord: Right. *hangs up*

God I need a life.
