I don't know if you saw my other site's movie review of Pacific Rim, which basically says the movie rocked... for what it is. Popcorn movie fun.
While writing the review, I was taken back to shows or characters I used to watch as a kid... Robot Jox, Voltron, Jet Jaguar, Johnny Sokko and His Giant Robot. Man, that show was the bomb... to a young boy.
Obviously Johnny Sokko was pretty cool then. You'd totally forget about the grey-screened sky backdrop as monsters and robots flew around miniature cities, and battled it out in robot/monster suits.
But that and any project like it was severely limited by technology, or lack there of, compared to our tech now-a-days. And that tech is crazy cool these days. It makes many things very, very exciting and cool for today's sci-fi/fantasy movie fan.
But in my reflections, I found the first episode of Johnny Sokko! So without further blabbering, let's kick it for a few minutes and have some fun.
