  • POWER RANGERS 3-25-14 Script
    POWER RANGERS ||||| Written by Max Landis Based on "Mighty Morphing Power Rangers" Created by Haim Saban and Shuki Levy 2nd Draft 3/25/14 Max Landis [email protected] Space. Darkness. And then, a flash of fire, passing us, hooking us in its trail, pulling us along with it, a tiny meteorite plunging down into earth’s atmosphere... WE FOLLOW IT Down burning through night sky, clouds, then out over the ocean, plunging into the water with a burst of steam. After a moment, there’s another plop, another burst of steam. And then, like raindrops, hundreds of tiny fragments begin striking the ocean, when suddenly- A HUGE fireball, CRASHING INTO THE OCEAN- dragging us under- Revealing a title, coming up slowly, from the murky depths... POWER RANGERS SLAM TO: A dead fish. Out on the beach. Dozens...no, hundreds; it’s a mass wash-up, disgusting, covering the beach of idyllic ANGEL GROVE, California, as far as the eye can see. School buses are parked next to the beach; it’s a big volunteer clean-up, people everywhere. We’re near a carnival pier, the centerpiece of which is a huge, colorful, old-fasioned ferris wheel. A sign reads “WELCOME TO ANGEL GROVE, HOME TO AMERICA’S 4TH 5TH LARGEST FERRIS WHEEL!” The pier is clearly currently closed. JASON Scott, 17, kneels next to a shark. Jason’s alpha male good-looks and natural athleticism are dampened by an immediate aloofness; he’s rough around the edges, anxious. JASON Look at the teeth on this guy. William “BILLY” Cranston, 17, approaches behind him, putting fish into a plastic bag solemnly.
