"Tron... at a cinema near you, from this weekend!" It must have been a re-release of sorts, as it opened in the U.K on 21 October 1982 according to IMDb. They were probably giving it an extra push over the Christmas hollidays, as Tron wasn't a big box office hit.

'Won Ton Ton' makes for staggering viewing these days (and probably even in 1982). Put simply, a Rin Tin Tin semi-biopic with the odd rape joke and doggy suicide attempt. That, and if my memory serves me right, looks suspiciously like it was shot on the leftover sets from 'The Day of the Locust'. Directed by Michael Winner, naturally.

They were selling Atari 2600s for £90 at Xmas 1982? I remember as a 5 or 6 year old being in Woolworths seeing boxes upon boxes of Atari 2600s on the shelves up to the ceiling behind the counter and they were selling for £200 each and the games were £30 each. My parents couldn't afford it. I think that would have been around 1979 or 1980. I ended up with a small clock radio/tape recorder instead. Talk about disappointment.

I also loved how the advert for the Atari showed a six switcher when in actuality by late 1982 it was an all black 4 switcher version of the 2600 that was on sale at that time. The wood grained six switcher model of the 2600 was replaced by a wood grained 4 switcher in late 1980 or early 1981.
