“Bury me at Flynn’s Arcade” - Steve
On this week’s show, we’re finally talking about the landmark special effects movie/ride, Tron! This is the film where a computer programmer, played by the handsome as all get-out Jeff Bridges, gets pulled into his own computer system and has to battle for the freedom of… accounting software? How incredible are the cinematic vibes here? Is it any surprise Bridges needed the codpiece adjusted? How many Star Wars references can you find here? And thank The User we didn’t have to deal with an over-explanatory opening scroll or narration, get that outta here and let us use our brains! PLUS: Never ride in a helicopter with a cast member from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze!
Tron stars Jeff Bridges, Bruce Boxleitner, Cindy Morgan, Barnard Hughes, Dan Shor, and the late, great David Warner as Dillinger/Sark/Master Control Program; directed by Steven Lisberger.
