Which shows DON'T you like?

He's Red and Silver, as tall as a building, and kicks the butts of Giant Monsters!! He's also Japan's most enduring and favorite Superhero!! From Ultra Seven to Ultraman Orb, discuss the many incarnations of Ultraman here!! Let's not forget Zone Fighter! Kamen Rider! Gridman! The infinity of Toei Sentai Teams! For such a small island, Japan is bursting with colorful superheroes! Discuss Japanese Heroes here as well!!

I dislike all of the Ultraman shows except the following:

Ultraman
Ultra Seven
Ultraman Leo (1-16)
Ultraman Nexus
Ultraman Max
Ultra Seven X


The first two shows mold interesting concepts with dazzling special effects (Ultra-Seven being up there with the Golden Age 60's monster movies). Ultraman Leo, in the beginning, warped the mundane formula that had already been beaten with a stick. Nexus and Ultra Seven X provide a mature and spell-binding take on the mythos. Ultraman Max is also refreshing for taking not sticking to a stream-lined mood of plot.

Everything else is recyclable trash that is just re-filtered back and forth for the kiddies.

Or Ultra Q?

I can't stand Cosmos at all, and while I don't hate them and can still watch and enjoy them from time-to-time, the three 90s series (T.D.G.) are hard for me to get into.

And, unlike Mac, I LOVE Ace and Taro. :lol:
