	Movies - Ultraman: The Adventure Begins

Ultraman: The Adventure Begins was an animated movie joint produced by Hanna-Barbera and Tsuburaya Productions in 1981.

In the movie, three stunt pilots (the "Flying Angels"), Chuck, Scott and Beth are caught in a bizarre flash of light and crash, only to emerge unharmed. They are later informed by an agent of an interstellar peace-keeping agency (whose secret identity is the groundkeeper at Pebble Beach) they've become the host bodies of warriors from the planet U40 (as in The Ultraman/Ultraman Jonias) to capture escaped monsters from the planet Sorkin who have arrived on Earth. They become the Ultra Force, headquartered within Mount Rushmore, and are assisted by a trio of robots, Andy, Samson and Ulysses. Although equipped with futuristic fighter crafts, inevitably one or more of the team is required to transform into an Ultraman, a gigantic red and silver superhuman being, to battle the monsters. After destroying the most powerful Sorkin monster, the Ultra Force remains together to combat further threats to planet Earth. The movie seems intended as the pilot of an animated series, but no further adventures of the Ultramen within were ever documented.
