Boo! BOO I SAY!!

Anyway, I got ahold of “Johnny Sokko” last year and LOVED it. We really need to show a couple of episodes at T-Fest. I should tell Ken there’s an episode with a stingray monster (even though it’s the saddest episode in the series). “Space Giants” and “Zone Fighter” are the two big ones I’ve still not seen much, or indeed any in the former’s case, of. Well, that and “Spectreman” although the bits I’ve seen of that didn’t thrill me.

I can understand people not enjoying “Ultraman,” and it has its flaws, but I am not on that side of the fence. Even having seen most of the first sequel, “Ultra 7” (which I do recommend – he’s my favorite of the Ultras) years before, I was utterly shocked at how sadistic Ultraman could be. While he does give a neat send-off to the drawing made real, his constant bullying of the dead monster was hard to watch, and occasionally he did horrifying things to his opponents (Dorongo and Jiras in particular).

Why did you have to remind me of the OCR from “Hanuman and the Seven Ultramen”? I HATED those two. Really dug that crazy-ass movie for the most part, though.

The Antigone and “Love Is…” jokes, Earnest Borg Nine, Thaience Force…man, you were on fire with this one. Well done!
