Tron

Has anybody have the need to review TRON? I remember the movie graphics and music to be the best part of the flick but had to watch it a few times again when I was older to really understand all the tech jargon of a hacker. Can’t forget the video game- that was my first introduction to it.

Then there was that TV spin off, which I think someone on the crew already quoted in a past thread or podcast, where the computer car would make 90 degree turns at 60 and throw all the occupants into the inside of the cars interior. Inertia works!

In any event, just curious if there was enough of a following to want to do a podcast on it?

Love this movie i could rewatch anytime I can’t watch for the new movie. Look like to hear the arc.

The television show wasn’t a spin-off, it was a rip-off. It was called Automan, starred Desi Arnez, Jr, and lasted barely a season. It was also, erm, stinky! Stinky to the (sorrybarb) supremacy of stinkiness!

That said, reviewing Tron itself would be well worth a post-BSG episode or two. Probably just one, unless we want to toss in the largely wretched video games it spawned or discuss the upcoming movie which keeps having its date moved around.

If nothing else, we could discuss the Robot Chicken parodies!

For that matter, why not the Robot Chicken BSG parodies?

The Crew did a Direct to Archive (#3) back before Season 4.0 started. If you haven’t checked it out I highly recommend it. Here is a link to the thread at the time. This would be a great one to do a community frak party on.

Pick a date & time, and I’ll add it to the schedule. :slight_smile:
