Power Rangers Super Megaforce: The Legendary Battle is an American superhero film serving as an extended-cut version of the two final episodes from Power Rangers Super Megaforce, namely "The Wrath" and "Legendary Battle". In the film, the Super Mega Rangers stand their ground against The Armada, who launch their final and most devastating assault on Earth.

Synopsis

Believing that the Armada are defeated with the deaths of Vrak and Vekar, Orion leaves, only for the Super Mega Rangers to be surprised at the arrival of the real invasion led by Vrak and Vekar's father Emperor Mavro. The Rangers must use nearly every weapon - nearly every Legendary Ranger Mode and Zord at their disposal - to stop this menace once and for all.

Plot

Orion believes that Earth is now completely safe, and decides to return to his home planet Andresia. Ernie and the Rangers (especially Emma) are sad to see Orion go, and gives him a bag of mementos. Orion then leaves Earth on his Armada ship. Meanwhile, in order to destroy the Rangers and conquer Earth, Emperor Mavro decides to send every Armada ship in the galaxy to attack the planet. Levira is given a chance to redeem herself, so she creates her own Megazord and goes after the Rangers. When Gosei tells the Rangers about Mavro's plans, Troy says that even though they will have to face thousands of enemies, they have every Power Ranger in history fighting beside them. The Rangers, with the help of Legendary Ranger mode, easily defeat Levira and the Royal Guard with no major trouble at all, but it is revealed that Emperor Mavro used Levira to buy the Armada ships time to reach Earth.

Armada ships then fully cloud the sky, and begin to destroy the city with powerful laser beams. The Rangers combine every Legendary Zord they have in their arsenal and effectively destroy most of the ships, but a bigger second wave of ships arrive, and destroys all of the Rangers' Zords before sending their Legendary Megazord crashing to the ground. The Armada Mothership then delivers a final strike on the Megazord, blowing it to pieces. At the same time, Orion listens to Mavro's threatening messages in his ship. With the Rangers knocked out, Emperor Mavro sends a final message to humanity, telling them that the Armada will be taking over the planet once and for all because of the Earthlings' strong resistance against the Armada. He then declares that the Armada will finish the job the next day at dawn. With the city in ruins, many civilians question whether or not Mavro's claim to have destroyed the Power Rangers is true. As the Megaforce Rangers regroup, several Legendary Rangers - including Tommy Oliver, Cassie Chan, T.J. Johnson, Leo Corbett, Carter Grayson, and Dana Mitchell - are seen throughout the city helping citizens out of dangerous situations. As the citizens prepare for the Armada's attack at dawn, other Legendary Rangers - including Damon Henderson, Karone, and Wesley Collins - are seen amongst the crowds as well.

The Rangers contact Gosei, who expresses his confidence in their ability to succeed despite the loss of their Zords. While the Rangers are initially despondent, Troy rallies them with an encouraging speech, and a familiar Armada ship soon descends with a welcome addition to their forces: a returning Orion. The next day, Redker leads a force of Armada robots to attack the city, only to be challenged by the Rangers. After briefly helping the others fight him, Troy and Orion determine that their only hope of defeating the Armada for good is to infiltrate the Armada flagship and challenge Emperor Mavro head on. Leaving their four friends to continue the battle, they board Orion's ship and manage to crash it into the flagship and make their way aboard. While their friends defeat Redker using the Super Mega Cannon, the pair challenge Mavro, but he proves a formidable combatant.

However, they manage to turn the flagship's firepower on the rest of the Armada fleet, decimating the entire force in less than a minute. Using their full power, they then defeat Mavro and send the flagship plummeting towards Earth. Much to the horror of their friends, they apparently perish in the crash as the vessel explodes. However, using the powers of the Red and Silver Space Rangers, the two manage to get out of the ship before it crashes. Unfortunately for the Rangers Mavro has survived as well and proceeds to attack them. The rangers then go all out, using nearly all of their legendary powers. Using their legendary power-up modes, they deal the final attack and finally destroy Emperor Mavro.

The group celebrate their victory, only to spot one final menace: a massive army of X-Borgs and Bruisers marching towards the city, summoned by Mavro in his final act of villainy. Despite being vastly outnumbered, the six Rangers are determined to fight, and then receive one final surprise: the Legendary Rangers all appear to aid them in this final confrontation. The Megaforce Rangers gladly welcome their new allies, and refrain from going into Super Megaforce mode due to their confidence about the outcome of the battle. After a furious struggle, all the robots are defeated, and the veteran Rangers-led by Tommy-bid farewell to the Megaforce, assuring them that the older Rangers will always be with them. With that, the Legendary Rangers disperse, and the Megaforce Rangers decide to celebrate their victory, with Troy leaving his sword behind at the site of the final battle and Gia giving Jake a kiss on the cheek.

• Including the Legendary Ranger modes of the original version, this episode possesses the most amount of teams used in a Legendary Ranger Mode in a single episode of the TV series with twenty (the number of main PR Teams) with almost every PR team being represented. However, this did not include all of the actual PR teams, the only teams not being represented in a Legendary Ranger Mode in this episode are the Wild Force Rangers, Turbo Rangers and the Ranger Operators.
  • Out of the 20 teams, only 6 of them (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Zeo Rangers, Space Rangers, Galaxy Rangers, Mystic Rangers and Mega Rangers) feature more than one representative.
• With this episode, one Ranger from the every past Ranger team has been represented in a Legendary Ranger Mode at least once.
• With this episode, Orion has morphed into both of his Non-Sixth Ranger counterparts at least once.
• Troy's morph into the Red Samurai Ranger and Emma's into the Pink Mystic Ranger pays homage to the first episode as the Samurai Rangers and the Mystic Rangers were the first two teams that the Super Mega Rangers transformed to.
• In this version, Orion's last Legendary Ranger Mode is from the very first Gold Ranger in the franchise (the Gold Zeo Ranger).
  • Also much like Orion's first Legendary Ranger Mode was a Gold Ranger, his last Legendary Ranger Mode was the very first Gold Ranger.
• So far, none of the Super Mega Rangers have transformed into the Space Rangers with the exception of Red, Black, Yellow and Silver, any of the Lightspeed Rangers with the exception of Blue, the Time Force Rangers with the exception of Pink, any of the Megaforce Rangers with the exception of Blue and Silver, and the Overdrive Rangers with the exception of Red.
• Coincidentally, the two Space Rangers that the Super Mega Rangers never transform into, Blue and Pink, are the two representatives of their team.
• As of this episode, the Space Rangers, Lightspeed Rangers, Time Force Rangers and the Overdrive Rangers are now the only teams who haven't had a full-team Legendary Ranger Mode.
• With this episode, Orion has transformed into both his Green Sixth Ranger counterparts at least once.
• With this episode, 87 of the 104 Legendary Ranger Keys have been used by the Super Mega Rangers at least once.
• With this episode, Orion has transformed into the first Silver Ranger of the Zordon and Saban Brands Eras.
• As of this episode, Jake has transformed into all of his counterparts from the Zordon Era at least once.
• With this episode, Jake has transformed into both of the Ranger forms belonging to Carlos Vallerte at least once.
• This is the only time a Super Mega Ranger transforms into a Legendary Ranger without the need of a Ranger Key. In this case, Troy uses the Dragon Shield given to him by Orion, as Mighty Morphin Green, to become the Armored Red Ranger.
• Blue Senturion, Kat Ranger, Black Lion Warrior and Green Chameleon Warrior are now the only Extra Rangers whose keys were not used by the Super Mega Rangers at least once.
• This is the only time the Super Mega Rangers use the Red Battalion Ranger, Black Space Ranger, Magna Defender, Blue Lightspeed Ranger, Green Samurai Ranger, Shadow Ranger, White Mystic Ranger, Female Red Samurai Ranger and Sentinel Knight Keys.
• In this version, Troy's last Legendary Ranger Mode is the same as his first: Red Samurai Ranger.
• As of this episode, the following Legendary Ranger Modes have not occurred in the series at some point:
  • Troy is the only Super Mega Ranger who hasn't transformed into a Ranger that is not his base color.
  • There has never been in a case where all 6 Super Mega Rangers transform into a single colored Legendary Ranger Mode.
  • Emma and Noah are the only Super Mega Rangers not to transform into all their counterparts from the Zordon Era.
  • The Battalion Rangers are the only "New Powers" team whose members were not represented by a Legendary Ranger Mode at least once although the Key was used.
  • This is the only time Orion transforms into Robo Knight, Magna Defender, Silver Space Ranger and the Green Samurai Ranger.
  • Orion, on his own, has never transformed into the Titanium Ranger, Quantum Ranger, Lunar Wolf Ranger, Omega Ranger, Solaris Knight, Mercury Ranger, and Ranger Operator Series Silver & Ranger Operator Series Gold.
  • There has been no single colored team Legendary Ranger Modes besides Red and Black.
  • None of the Super Mega Rangers has transformed into Ninjor, Blue Senturion, Phantom Ranger, Shadow Ranger, Kat Ranger, White Mystic Ranger, Sentinel Knight, Black Lion Warrior, Green Chameleon Warrior, or the female Red Samurai Ranger.

Differences from the original airings

The extended battle with Emperor Mavro.

As the trailer stated, the extended version contains approximately 43% new footage, some of it effectively extending certain scenes, adding other scenes, as well as retconning certain events that happen in the aforementioned episodes. These changes include:

• The Rangers use the attack of the Lightning Rangers through Legendary Megazord against Levira.
• The Rangers do a Legendary Ranger Mode into the Mystic Rangers.
• The Rangers dispose of the Imperial Guard/Kingsmen that Redker brought using Red and Green Mighty Morphin Modes, with Red becoming the Armored Red Ranger in the process.
• Mavro does not immediately perish in the ship, and re-appears on land. This leads into an extended fight-scene with the Mega Rangers, utilizing the remainder of the final fight footage between Emperor Ackdos Gill and the Gokaigers.

Errors

(These errors are exclusive to the additional footage.)

• Shark Attack Mode, Ultra Mode, S.P.D. S.W.A.T. Mode, Legend Warrior Mode, and Jungle Master Mode are all referred by the Mega Rangers as Battlizers, when they're actually Enhancement Modes.
• Emma calls the Pink Mystic Ranger's attack the Magi Bolt, a Magiranger term not used in Mystic Force, and Gia calls the Yellow Dino Ranger's weapon the Ptera Grips, when she was actually using the Thundermax Blaster.
• The Green Samurai Ranger (Ninja Storm) and the White Aquitar Ranger were seen using a baseball bat and summoning dozens of origami which were not done in either of their seasons.
• The DVD cover for the Extended Edition consists of a screenshot from the episode showing all of the Power Rangers, with the Super Megaforce Rangers digitally overlaid over said shot. Because of this, Super Megaforce Silver can be seen in two locations, while the Megaforce Rangers can also be seen standing behind their Super Mega Modes.
• When Orion morphs to both the Magna Defender and the Gold Ranger, he was voiced by Azim Risk, who actually plays Jake aka Megaforce Black/Super Megaforce Green.
• When Emperor Mavro shot the Rangers, the Time Force Pink Ranger and Yellow Lion are briefly seen. This is due to Sentai footage.

Notes

(These notes are exclusive to the extended footage)

• The DVD has a featurette about the history and popularity of the Power Rangers franchise over the last 20 years. The show had become so popular by its 7th year, that kids would be so inspired by it that they would take anything said by the actors to heart (such an example is a kid who brushed his teeth religiously after being told Power Rangers practiced dental hygiene), or were confused to see actors who played hero and villain together, forcing them to think of an excuse on the spot.
• Noah is seen "morphing back" to Megaforce Blue (albeit in Ultra Mode) as a part of the all-Super Legendary Mode. In the first episode, Jake didn't transform into Megaforce Red due to the fact that it would be redudant for any Super Mega Ranger to transform into a Megaforce Ranger.
• All of the Rangers that received cameos in this episode now have lines except for Damon, Mike, and Emily.
• This is the second time a Super Mega Ranger is seen morphing to the same Legendary Ranger twice, the first time being in the first episode.
  • Coincidentally, the same Legendary Rangers whose forms was accessed twice in the first episode, both appear as part of the Legendary Battlized Ranger set.
• After Karone says that she loves being a Power Ranger, a Legend Shift of her time as Astronema occurred. This is the only time that a Ranger receives a Non-Ranger/Villain Legend Shift.
• Mike and Emily are the only cameoing Rangers who do not receive a Legend Shift, a Cameo Scene, or a Close-Up of them removing their helmets.
• This special marks the only time in the series that any of the Super Mega Rangers (in this case one) perform a Legendary Ranger Mode into a Lightspeed Ranger.
• Representatives of the Turbo Rangers, Wild Force Rangers and Ranger Operators are all mysteriously absent from the final rush of mode changes against Mavro.
  • The corresponding footage of Red Racer and Go-On Blue, counterparts of the Red Turbo Ranger and Ranger Operator Series Blue respectively, was likely removed for also featuring Black Turbo of the Turborangers, another unadapted team. This despite the series featuring many otherwise unadapted Sentai Rangers already.
  • Likewise, the footage of GaoYellow, counterpart of the Yellow Wild Force Ranger, was shared with Red Hawk of the Jetmen (one of the many Sentai series that went unadapted) and Pink Flash of the Flashmen despite the Flashmen team being adapted as the "Prism Rangers" as part of the New Powers.
• This is the last appearances of:
  • Super Megaforce Red's Mighty Morphin Red Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Pink's Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Red's Zeo Ranger V Red form.
  • Super Megaforce Silver's Gold Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Red's Galaxy Red form.
  • Super Megaforce Yellow's Yellow Dino Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Red's Red Mystic Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Blue's Blue Mystic Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Yellow's Yellow Mystic Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Green's Green Mystic Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Pink's Pink Mystic Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Red's Red Overdrive Ranger form.
• This is the only appearances of:
  • Super Megaforce Red's Mighty Morphin Red Ranger (Armored) & Red Samurai Ranger (Shark Attack) form.
  • Super Megaforce Pink's Pink Mystic Ranger (Legend Warrior Mode) form.
  • Super Megaforce Yellow's Jungle Fury Yellow Ranger (Jungle Master Mode) form.
  • Super Megaforce Blue's Blue Lightspeed Ranger form.
  • Super Megaforce Green's Black Space Ranger & S.P.D Green Ranger (S.W.A.T. Mode) form.
  • Super Megaforce Silver's Robo Knight, Green Samurai Ranger (Super Samurai Mode) & Magna Defender form.
