Ranger Call Episode 03 – Ranger Rage

Power-Rangers-Ranger-Call

20 years ago, a show by the name of Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers blasted onto our television line-up, featuring five teenagers who would tackle evil on a daily basis. As the years passed, we as fans grew up and moved on, but the series continued, evolving in different ways to retain an ageless charm that has ultimately resulted in a hardcore fan following. Ranger Call is a celebration of the phenomenon, where Dustin Spencer and Andrew Day come together to speak about their memories and discuss the many tropes that the show offered throughout its many incarnations.

Power-Rangers-Neo-Grifforzer

This week, we bring back Ranger Call and crank it to the MAX….with news that is. From the new DVD sets, Mega Force entering Netflix, and several other stories, our two hosts spend their time sharing opinions on some awesome topics while touching on some very hot topics in the PR Universe. Will the Ranger War be decent? Is Amy Jo Johnson sincere? Do we have trouble remembering cast member’s names? All of that and more can be found in this episode of Ranger Call! Tune in below.

Scraps Launched on Kickstarter

Moment-Studio-01

There seems to be a growing number of New Zealand game developers. Scraps is a potential new game that may materialize from the creative minds of New Zealand game creator, Moment Studio. Intended for the PC, Mac and Linux, the game is based on a simple and fun activity – designing and controlling a machine on wheels to battle and dominate other combat vehicles. It has already launched on Kickstarter for crowd-funding and is looking to raise $23,000NZD.

Moment-Studio-Scraps-01

Moment Studio is actually the efforts of a solo developer Bill Borman, who has been spent a good full year developing this game. The vehicle building aspect of the game is said to be “pretty much solid” with an early builder demo already available for download, although multiplayer gameplay is still several months away. Scraps is going to offer an alpha release of the game, not to give gamers a taste test so to speak, but to make use of a promise by Kickstarter to contribute about $20NZD for every copy of the Alpha released, which when ready in mid-2014 will offer multiplayer melee gameplay and a basic set of vehicle parts. An alpha purchase also means more game content, such as car parts, chassis types and additional game modes.

National Dads & Daughters Day Celebrates The Croods’ Home Media Release

Scott-Prince-Matt-Cooper-Daughters-01

National Rugby League legend Scott Prince has launched National Dads & Daughters Day to celebrate the release of DreamWorks Animation’s The Croods on DVD and Blu-ray on December 4.

To launch the day, Prince hosted a fun picnic in Sydney’s Entertainment Quarter, which was attended by many, including some of Scott’s NRL friends, one of which being Matt Cooper (pictured above). Also a children’s author and devoted father of two girls, Prince has compiled a list of parenting tips for all Dads out there to heed in order to build a stronger bond with their daughters. You can download them in PDF format here. Prince doesn’t mean to insult fathers of the world, but notes that dads often spend more time with their sons than daughters; “perhaps they think that they have more in common with their boys, or maybe they’re just a bit intimidated by ‘girls stuff’”.

Scott-Prince-Daughters-01

Prince said of his involvement with the event and initiative;

The relationship with her dad is one of the most important in a little girl’s life. A National Dads & Daughters Day is a wonderful idea, because it will focus us blokes on what really matters. I’m looking forward to hosting The Croodilicious Dads & Daughters Picnic at Heritage Park, but this is intended to be a national day and we’re asking dads all over to Australia to make that extra special effort on Saturday November 30th.
