Power Rangers: Every Major Character Ranked From Worst To Best

9. Alpha-5

There was a lot of pre-release worry about the depiction of Zordon's robot buddy Alpha-5, largely related to the horrendously bad CGI and creepy re-design.

Unfortunately, while Bill Hader actually does a solid job giving him a quirky, charming presence, the new Alpha still looks like hot garbage for the most part, and sticks out like a sore thumb among the film's other, better attempts to give the show's iconography a snazzy update.

Best Moment: This is a tough one. Alpha creepily referring to the teenagers as "so...young"? Or his fanboy-pleasing utterances of "Ai-yi-yi-yi-yi!"? No, it's got to be his bizarre (and amusing) realisation that the ethnically diverse collection of youngsters are “Different colours. Different kids. Different coloured kids.”
