Our Lunch with the White Ranger
(About Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie) From: Disney Adventure (Issue unknown)
D.A.: Are the Power Rangers in the movie different from the ones on the show?
J.D.F.: The movies are totally different from the T.V. Show. It's got a bigger everything. Bigger special effects, bigger monsters, bigger budget, stuff like that. We have new zords and weapons. We lose our powers and we have to find a new power.
D.A.: What's the new villain, Ivan Ooze, like?
J.D.F.: Ivan Ooze is the best monster I've ever seen so far. I think Power Ranger movies should get nominated for an Academy Award for the best makeup on Ivan Ooze. He's so cool.
D.A.: Do you like playing the white Ranger more than the Green Ranger?
J.D.F.: Yeah, but I like the Green Ranger too. I like them both. The Green Ranger was more sensitive, I think more independent, you know, he was always out there by himself doing things. Now, being the White Ranger, being the leader, it's a whole different character.
D.A.: Were you recognized in Australia?
J.D.F.: Not so much, no.
D.A.: What martial arts do you use on the show?
J.D.F.: On the show and in real life I study Toso Kune Do. It's a combination of every martial art style mixed together.
