No more racing movies, they are handled terribly in most cases, just look at Drive or Driven (the one with Stallone).6. Pole Position
I just realized that Mighty Max was a little bit of Buffy and a little bit of Doctor Who.
Ive come to notice that few American old cartoons really pass the testo f times. Japanese animation, on the other hand, seems to stay the same over the years.
These are five examples thatd do great stories for movies. For thosew oif you who didn'0t know them I'll sum them up.

COBRA THE SPACE PIRATE

MAZINGER Z (aka TRANZOR Z)
Japanese series from 1972 about a giant robot commanded by a man in a flying machine inserted in the robots head. The villiains were excellent: Dr. Hell, an old man in green tights who wanted to take over the world, Baron Ashura, a human being whose left half is male and whose right half is female (yes, thats right), and Count Brocken, a man whose headless body would carry his own head in his hands.

GEKKO KAMEN (aka MOONLIGHT MASK)
A 1972 36-episode anime preceeded by a long TV series in the 50s. Mix of Batman and Lone Ranger, this man was a misterious superhero without superpowers but, of course, a superb psyhical training. His weapons included ninja stars, a whip and a dart gun. The enemies were James Bond-like: Claw of Satan (Satan himself incarnated in a man), Dr. Dogma, a tiny evil scientist who uses a giant gorilla cyborg to take over the world and Dragons Fang, another costumed villiain.
I'm aware I just want another one. While entertaining it was still rough around the edges.There was a GTO movie & TV series back in the late 90s played perfectly by Takashi Sorimachi
At one point they were talking about a live action Exo-Squad film, but that was back in the 90s. done right though Exo-Squad would make an awesome film trilogy.MASK
