Java is for sure fast enough to achieve what you want.  It solely
depends on your programming capabilities whether you fail or succeed ;)

Given your problem description, I suggest that you have a look at the
Fiji plugin TrakEM2.  It already implements interactive panning and
zooming of very large series of montages of virtually transformed
images.  It already implements the necessary infrastructure for making
this process quick (spatial hierarchies for searching the correct image,
multi-scale representations of images).  You can implement your movie
idea with a simple script that would run the display through the series
while you interact with it.  TrakEM2 enables that you have uneven
spacing between individual images in the series and your script can just
use this information for adjusting the time interval.
