Mystic Mother made no sense
Not only was Mystic Mother corny, she made no sense. Rita was purified in C2D and was young looking . Not only does she look like season 1 Rita, it doesn't add up. Mystic Mother is the source of all good magic and seemingly has been in power for centuries. Yet Rita has only been purified for several years at that point. It just makes no sense.

I didn't like MF. But I loved Rita as Mystic Mother. It made sense for someone like me that only counts MMPR. So the timeline makes a lot more sense for me. It was a cool nod to MMPR. I apreciated it and wished she was in the whole season. Too bad they couldn't get Barbara Goodsen and had to settle for someone that could sound like her.

I liked it since it gave the season finalie a very sentai feel. Also it was a nice tribute to Soga. I wish they could have had her speak japanese but I know why they couldn't do that.

Re: Mystic Mother made no sense
Diffinitly made no sense. It was a poor way to handle bringing Rita back. She should have been the mentor all season. It seemed so random to suddenly have a Mystic Mother right as the season ended. They shoehorned Mystic Mother in with a poorly executed nod to the past.

Re: Mystic Mother made no sense
It was just supposed to be a cool nod to the past. I think people have always made too big a deal of it. Its really not a big deal for Rita to be Mystic Mother. It was a cool tribute to Soga and the old Rita long term fans remember.

Also it makes complete sense. Yes she was purified by the Z-Wave and was younger back then but REMEMBER that was done because of Finster's creation as a trick to get Zedd to marry her. She would have no reason to continue applying that creation so she would be back to the older aappearance. Yes Mystic Mother is the source of good magic so it still makes sense and completely adds up. Yes she was purified by the Z-Wave and was evil for quite awhile but that doesn't really change anything regarding her background. Quote:

I disagree that they shoehorned her in and I disagree it was a poorly executed nod to the past. Quote:

Re: Mystic Mother made no sense
I just thought all the one liners she added in the final battle made things look goofy. The whole dubbed in over Sentai footage for humans doesn't work like it did in season 1. Mystic Mother was just kind of goofy to me. If she was in just a few scenes it would have been different.
So you're saying the Mystic Realm was ruled by Evil before C2D? Gotta admit thats an interesting thought. |
Re: Mystic Mother made no sense
yup it's entirely possible and it is an interesting thought indeed.
Rita would have still been naturally the Mystic Mother inside herself even while she was evil. She might not have been aware of it however due to the darkness of her own heart at the time controlling her to the point of wanting to get revenge on Zordon for imprisoning her. I actually did like the lines she said in the finale since they were continuity lines and you have to hear Rita and her catchphrase otherwise she wouldn't be Rita if you don't hear her "you're giving me a headache" catchphrase." |
Re: Mystic Mother made no sense
I don't consider Mystic Mother Rita Repulsa. She was just someone that sounded like her and was supposed to be a tribute to her. They just had the same first name and were once evil.
