Tron (1982)

Director: Steven Lisberger

Starring: Jeff Bridges, Bruce Boxleiter, David Warner

A hacker is transported into the world of a computer and forced to participate in gladiatorial games where his only chance of escape is with the help of a heroic security program.

As promised last week we have something new again this week! We would like to welcome Jeff Caddick as our guest Midnight Movie Crew member as we talk about the Disney computer film Tron.

Dan hadn’t actually seen Tron right up until about half an hour before we recorded this so it’s interesting to hear his take on it with completely fresh eyes.

Support the Midnight Movie Club:

Now in case you can’t get enough Dan and/or Lee you can:

Next week join us as we take to the skies (ummm for a little while) then spend time in the desert and finally go spelunking! That’s right next week we’re staying up and being bleary eyed for the John Woo film Broken Arrow!!

Will Dan and Lee agree on this one? Or will Broken Arrow be the one that drives a wedge between them? Come back next week and find out!

Have an iPod or an iPhone or have iTunes installed? Then you should subscribe via the iTunes store!!

I’m just disappointed we didn’t figure out a way to mention Al Leong in the course of the discussion. He should be mentioned in every podcast, I believe.

Wait. For a minute there I thought I read that Dan hadn’t seen Tron before. But that can’t be right at all so I must have been hallucinating.

  @Kevin Spencer, I’m afraid this still doesn’t come anywhere near the fact that you still haven’t seen a single episode of the Simpsons. Nowhere near.
