Tron: Legacy (2010)

Being here for the aesthetic isn't necessarily a bad thing - and that's proven by the Disney sci-fi action/adventure film Tron: Legacy. While maybe the screenplay and performances aren't all the way there, there's a killer soundtrack by Daft Punk and some (mostly) well-aged CGI effects. This directorial debut by filmmaker Joseph Kosinski has the tough task of soft-rebooting a a cult franchise that initially was a commercial failure - and through some David Fincher-esque camera work and (somewhat) interesting thematic elements, it succeeds some of the time. This film stars Jeff Bridges, Olivia Wilde, Garrett Hedlund, Michael Sheen, and Bruce Boxleitner. We also give some of our thoughts on the original Tron (1982) and drawcomparisons between the two films. We also go off track of the conversation by talking about raspberry pie technology, how Journey and Mick Jagger supposedly created the worst music video of all time, and our anticipation for Christopher Nolan's upcoming film Oppenheimer.
