Two years before William Gibson’s novel Neuromancer coined the term “cyberspace” the Disney corporation unleashed a bold and daring vision of anthropomorphic distributed computing gone wild. Featuring a young and wildly talented Jeff Bridges, and more dance belts and BMX armor than you can shake a data disc at, Steven Lisberger’s ground-breaking proto-CGI extravaganza, Tron, is a bizarre and beautiful vision of a future that never came to pass! Join Javi, Paul, and - needless to say - Producer Dumont as they get digitized into the gaming grid to marvel at Syd Mead’s generation-defining production design, do battle with the nefarious Master Control Program, and struggle to make sense of the movie’s plot!
