It's not just the Rangers who are looking a little different these days. The newest "Power Rangers" trailer is here, and it shows off more footage from the superhero flick. Longtime fans will be interested in the appearance of Zordon.

'Power Rangers' fans respond to new Alpha 5 design with a resounding 'no'
It's no secret that the new "Power Rangers" film is a departure from the original TV series, and the concept art for the movie's new Alpha 5 serves as further confirmation. Even fans who thought the updated looks for Rita, the Rangers' suits and the Zords gave them adequate mental preparation for any other redesigns probably couldn't refrain from a quick "Ay yi yi yi yi" after seeing the new Alpha. Revealed by IGN, this new take on the Power Rangers ally is more than a bit of a departure from the character's original look. In the TV series, Alpha was Zordon's panicky but devoted robotic assistant who served as the Rangers' advisor and friend. While the new Alpha retains the gold saucer-shaped helmet as well as the red body, not much else is recognizable.

Concept art for the 'Power Ranger' movie's Alpha 5 reveals an alien-looking new design
It's no secret that "Power Rangers" is a departure from the original TV series, and the latest concept art for the movie's new Alpha 5 is further proof. Even fans who thought the updated looks for Rita, the Rangers' suits and the Zords were adequate mental preparation for any other redesigns were likely surprised by Alpha's new design. To borrow some words from Alpha: "Ay yi yi yi yi." Revealed by IGN, this new take on the Power Ranger ally is more than a bit of a departure from the character's original look. In the TV series, Alpha was Zordon's panicky but devoted robotic assistant who served as the Rangers' adviser and friend.

Thanksgiving done wrong in satire 'Search Engines'
Fisher plays a recently divorced mother of two teens and out-of-work art critic determined to cook a traditional festive dinner with all the trimmings in her sunny Southern California home for her smartphone-addicted friends and extended family. But taming the turkey proves to be the least of her challenges when her neighborhood's cell reception suddenly goes dead, which proceeds to bring out the worst in some already less than exemplary behavior from her preoccupied houseguests. Unfortunately many viewers will have experienced their own connectivity issues long before those characters do. Although there's a genuinely cozy rapport between Fisher and Stevens, the other cast members, including Daphne Zuniga, Nick Court, Natasha Gregson Wagner and Michael Muhney, have a tougher time trying to make all the overwritten, self-consciously quirky dialogue believably their own. Filmmaker Russell Brown clearly had something pertinent he wished to say about our plugged-in, tuned-out obsession with the Internet and was obviously going for a Luis Buñuel-Robert Altman style of social commentary here.

Cranston even teased the connection in his tweet confirming his new role.
