...Ultraman King, a whopping 300,000 years old, stands 190 ft. (58 m) tall and is able to fly at a top speed of Mach 20. A spokeswoman for the film's producers, Tsuburaya Productions, has said that Koizumi, as a former national leader, is the only person who has the presence to deliver such a pivotal address. With a mandate like that and the encouragement of his son, Koizumi completed his studio time in mid-September. The film will be released by Warner Bros. Japan in Japan on Dec. 12.

...later days, the Merlin of Mahwah could hardly play with the toys he invented. Arthritis froze all the digits on his right hand and all but two on his left.

The two new movies share the scientific optimism of that time, when the study of physics was, briefly, both a patriotic duty and a nifty option for American students; when doctors began installing artificial hearts; when President Kennedy said we'd go to the moon within a decade...
...text, and it's deliriously dense. Renouncing literal sense (Is the film set in the '50s or today? In America or Britain? Who knows? Who cares?), the Wachowskis have created a fantasyland that is part retro, part nextro. It's a rich, cartoonish dream: Op Art in nonstop, Mach 2 motion...
