Subject: Tron!

Anyone else love this movie? I know it's a cult favorite for geeks like me, but are there any non-geeks who like this movie?
I'd also love to hear from other geeks who continulously watch this movie like I do :)

I saw Tron years ago, but I haven't seen it in a long time. I enjoyed it though :)
I used to play the old arcade game Tron, and I even have the Atari 2600 game 'Tron: Deadly Discs'

I went to the cinema as a mere 6 yr old to watch Tron with the family. Needless to say I didn't understand a thing. I clearly remember watching bits of it though. Not had a chance to watch it since then but I would if it was on tv. :)

No, No, No, No! :)
Automan was far superior to Tron, In my opinion anyway. Automan has a Lamborghini Countach LP400 too :P And a rather awful looking Autobike we saw in one episode not to mention the various other contraptions he had :-X

i thoroughly enjoyed the movie, it's very forward looking in terms of being pretty much the first CGI movie!
the tron videogame was cool but i mostly just liked the battling motorcycles part. nice simple game concept.

Soundtrack by Wendy Carlos. Though they had to include that dumb Journey song on the album.
In 1995, I think it was, I bought a sealed copy of the "Tron" soundtrack. Inside were two coupons for the Bally "Tron" arcade video game, expiration date: 11/30/1982, so even if I could have found an arcade with the tron game, I'da been outta luck!

Tron was my first favorite movie. It came out during the early part of my life when perceptions weren't quite set and I couldn't understand everything so something like Tron had a real impression. The part where the guy in the tank was being hunted by the "Recognizers" scared me.
