Looks like it only takes 66 years for science fiction movies to become reality. The Batman and Robin movie serials of 1949 had an evil villain who had the technology to take control of all vehicles within a 50 mile radius. Today, we're darn close to Doctor Evil going worldwide with this. Where's Batman and Robin when you need them?
