TRON Legacy

I think I've mentioned before that My Beloved Spouse has been crazy with the need to go watch this movie. I'm not sure I've ever seen more than tidbits of the original, but I figured it'd be fun. Which it is. Given the reviews, it's obviously not a movie for everyone, but TRON has always been about the visuals, the game, and the relationship of programmers to what they program. The first one was about the early years of creation and excitement over the possibilities, whereas this one is more of a modern cautionary tale, though the hacker code of "information wants to be free" is still very present.

Anyway, all that aside, I like watching movies in 3D IMAX to SEE things I can't on my t.v. And it delivered on that front. IN SPADES.

Ok, first of all - at the beginning - they change the Disney castle logo. I LOVE it when movies do that, and this one was especially cool.

( And then, one day, I got in )

There are so many stories in this 'verse, too, that they barely brush against, that I would love to fic. heh. Apparently I'm drawn to fic sources that have someone named Sam in them.

As you may have heard, the soundtrack is awesome. Even if you have no wish to see the movie but you like film scores, it's a good one.
