The Tron animated show was great too. Set in between the movies

[@John_Locke_108]

You guys didn't grow up in the 80's? I feel so sad for you. Y'all missed out. This movie blew my mind when I was a kid.

[@John_Locke_108]

You guys need to also watch the documentary on the making of this film. They had to invent so many new techniques and technologies to accomplish what they did.

[@StardustandMadness]

So Andrew recognised Barnard Hughes from Sister Act 2, but neither of you recognised him from The Lost Boys? Does that mean you haven’t seen it? It’s such a ‘horror’ classic! You have to watch it if you haven’t!

[@eddiejoewalt7746]

hey REEL REJECTs i Dare you to do "FIRST TIME WATCHING = HEAVY METAL (1981)

[@DanGamingFan2406]

Fun Fact: Back in 1982 (same year this movie was released), the Academy Awards refused to nominate _Tron_ for the Special Effects Awards Category due to movie makers using computers to create these effects. The Academy believed this was 'cheating'. In effect, they were 'disqualified'. Nowadays, CGI is used in almost every movie to a certain extent.

[@aaronhenley4741]

I’d go even further and say modern blockbuster movies are more animated than live action.

[@michaellorusso-mcgraw6812]

So your saying tron is the reason movies suck these days and they started a domino effect thanks I knew it

[@WallEWorld]

To a certain extent... No. To every extent. Yes.😅

[@Ben19901]

Tron is one of those movies that only comes out when there are big improvements in technology for movies production

[@infinitwizdumb]

CGI work would be characterized as VFX which is a separate category that did not exist in 82.

[@Duskof81]

One of the general misconceptions about the Tron movies is that the humans/users are sucked into video-games, when they are actually inside computer servers. The reason there are game elements within the 1982 Grid is because the MCP is using the models from Flynn's Space Paranoids to act as tools for his programs' takeover of the system. Also for his "games" that serve to indoctrinate programs into minions, while killing any opposition. Also, no one built the cities within the system, they were generated by themselves, actually representations of the server's architecture. There, that was my loredump for Tron.

[@DanielS2001]

13:13 - The actor who plays Dr. Walter Gibbs in TRON, as well as Dumont (his program), is Barnard Hughes. He also played Grandpa in The Lost Boys (1987) and Dr. Aurelius Hogue in Doc Hollywood (1991). 49:58 - The composer for the film is Wendy Carlos. She became well known for the use of synthesizers for music, starting her career with doing synth music renders of the work of Bach for an album called Swithed-On Bach, which caught the attention of Stanley Kubrick. She worked on the score for A Clockwork Orange (1971) and The Shining (1980) prior to TRON. She is actually a transgendered woman, starting off as being born male.

[@Daehawk]

He was one of my favorite actors as a kid in the 80s because of his tv about Merlin in modern day.

[@vuechidna]

Wendy Carlos also collaborated on an album retelling the story of "Peter and the Wolf" with "Weird Al" Yankovic.

[@neemahbethea9328]

I don't think people understand how important Tron is in terms of the upbringing of special effects. Tron is an underrated gem.

[@semisaj5564]

It is up there with how The Wizard Of Oz made color/colour the standard and also the sound design was years ahead of its time!

[@findme7585]

Seriously, I wish everyone knew just how much this movie was responsible for so much of the computer effects we have today, and how much it changed the entire movie scene. The love and innovation that went into this film is astounding!

[@SentryDoesRetro]

Tron, Roger Rabbit, and Oz are my trifecta of special effects films. Oz brought color, Tron helped bring CGI, and Roger is a master class of physical effects

[@riekus13]

Wendy Carlos also did the score for A Clockwork Orange and The Shining.

[@dynaguy3]

Bruce Boxleitner said he based his portrayal of Tron off Superman/Clark Kent. He's the mild mannered guy with glasses as Alan and the confident superhero as Tron

[@AddSerious]

I saw this movie in the theater when I was 9, changed my life, I became hyper focused on computers. got my 1st computer shortly after (TI-994/A) and learned how to program. I am now 51 and still in the IT industry

[@cwardfilms]

The fact they hand painted the illumination circuitry on 75K of the frames is a work of love and amazing in that time!

[@corvuslight]

I can confirm that, as an 11 year old, this movie was in fact mind blowing in the theater.

[@AmanCreatesArt]

A few years ago they did an anniversary double feature screening of TRON and TRON: Legacy in Hollywood, with a panel of guests from the cast and crew. Seeing the original up on a giant screen was glorious!

[@rmhartman]

Wendy Carlos was one of the pioneers of the original Moog synthesizer.

[@danmcdonald3723]

Wendy Carlos did the composing and score for the movie. An amazing pioneer in electronic synthesizers and computerized music. She's definitely worth a look-up and reading about her work.

[@hackerx7329]

There are a few videos of her on youtube talking about her synths and the composition process. At the time they were walls of equipment that you had to manually connect parts together with patch cables and adjust all the knobs by hand. It is fascinating. She is also the only trans composer I know of and in one of the older videos she still had insanely epic mutton chops while wearing a suit yet having a dainty physique and a voice most people wouldn't have ever described as masculine. She worked on a few other movies including Clockwork Orange and had several albums of synth music that did fairly well. Some of them are out of print but some can be bought online. Not sure how much of here work is available for streaming. I remember the oldest copies of Tron listed the music as being from Walter Carlos, the later soundtracks listed Walter/Wendy Carlos, and now all the copies of stuff available to buy or stream has been updated to just say Wendy Carlos. I remember It caused a bunch of confusion for me as a kid because I saw two different first names and one last name and wondered if this was siblings or a married couple and at the time it never occurred to me that it was just one person who had changed names. Seriously, if you have any interest in electronic music or the history of the gear or anything check out the videos of her demonstrating the stuff. They are a fun watch.

[@ReelRejects]

What's your favorite Jeff Bridges performance??

[@E-H3R0]

Tron: Legacy. When that movie came out I was like 10 or something and loved it, couldn’t stop watching, playing the video game, and running around with my action figure throwing frisbees as if I was Tron lol

@@thedrewsephYT Was rewatching it around a week ago (totally forgot about how I was obsessed with Tron till I watched it) and I did a double take at the CGI of young Jeff Bridges lol. (If you haven’t seen Tron: Legacy, I don’t want to spoil so don’t read the rest) Once I saw that CGI, it looked weird and didn’t remember it being that way. But I grew to love it, especially when CLU was on screen. My personal theory on it was that they did it that way on purpose for CLU to make him look more like an older less refined program (least facial wise) since he was the first one Flynn made in that world, one of the originals or the original I guess

[@Wizardjudge]

The team responsible for the light cycle sequence included an animator named Bill Kroyer. Bill won an Oscar for his short Technological Terror that mixed 2D and 3D art for the first time. His animation company went on and created Ferngully as well as a bunch of other mixed animation effects - including the opening credits for Honey I Shrunk the Kids.

[@cabowabo75able]

The original Tron and sequel are both very underrated movies.

[@otterpoet]

Did see this in the theatre on opening day. Twice. And kept going back whenever I could. The visual effects were mind-blowing - Flynn's descent into the computer world felt utterly surreal.

[@jamiecordell3133]

I remember hearing that they edited every single frame for the digital lighting effects on the actors. Crazy.

[@hackerx7329]

The synths at that time were monophonic and didn't have sequencers so the electronic parts of the soundtrack were essentially recorded one note at a time and then tape spliced and mixed.

[@matthewbertram4312]

I can't wait to see you react to Legacy after seeing this for the first time. I think so much of Legacy's disappointment was rooted in nostalgia and expectations. I love Tron. I can't even count how many times I've watched it. But I understand it's not a "Good" movie like The Godfather is a good movie. It's an experience, it's fun, and it's exciting. And I think Legacy was a successful sequel in more ways than people gave it credit for at release. It's not a "great" film. But it was Tron with all the decades of the weight of the world built in since 1982.

[@erickvoshel1]

Did you know that there is a third "Tron movie slated for release later this year? It will be released on October 25th. It will be called "Tron: Ares".

[@Darkgod777]

You guys are correct. The actor playing Ram, is Dan Shore who plays Billy the Kid in Bill & Ted.

[@Brook11223]

Tron: Legacy with Cillian Murphy's character is portraying David Warner's character's son so kind of setting up the rivalry between Garrett Hedlund's character Sam Flynn.

Having seen this in the theater when it released I can tell you, this was big when it came out. But it wasn't a box office success when it released. No one had ever seen anything like this to this point. The programmers that worked on this were in a master class. This movie is OG and is the template for so many movies since then. You can do a search to learn more about it and there are videos of behind the scenes the making of Tron you can peruse.

[@michaelk151]

There was an interview on the 20th anniversary DVD of "Tron." Now-former Pixar chief John Lasseter was on it. He saw the light cycle sequence while it was being developed. He said: “Without Tron there would be no Toy Story.”

Seriously impressive.

I don't recall if I saw it in the theater or not, but I did wear out a VHS tape of it.....

[@bidwell13]

16:39 love how he refers to Mr Peabody & Sherman. 26:00 it’s funny Jeff Bridges “grid” costume is different from everyone else’s cause he was too “endowed” for the kind of movie it was. After this they have “Tron: Uprising” that’s an incomplete animated series (they didn’t want to renew it). After that they have “Tron: Legacy” (has some callbacks to the first one to watch for) then there’s a short called “Tron: The Next Day”. They’ve been working on a new one with Jared Leto. 49:54 as soon as they brought Flynn into the grid there was no more Clu. They wiped him from the system. Flynn was getting ready to rebuild him when the MCP pulled him into the system.

[@Allronix]

And that's just a bit. There's also a novelization of the 82 film by Brian Daley, the Betrayal comic, Wii Battle Grids, Tron: Evolution, and an ARG called Flynn Lives. Then you even get a "Legends canon" in the form of Tron 2.0, which had the Tron 2.0 Killer App sequel for the Game Boy Advance and the Tron: Ghost in the Machine comic book.

That Tron arcade game is still my favorite. Haven't seen one in a very long time.

[@torikazuki8701]

'Less Complicated?' Oh no, Younglings. The Technology may have been less ADVANCED, but those effects were incredibly complicated to create. New techniques were created to get what we see on screen. For comparison, it may be a lot of work to improve a car's Internal Combustion Engine, but creating that engine from SCRATCH? That's a lot harder to do.

[@StevenS757]

Wendy Carlos was a pioneer of digital synthesized music and did several well known film soundtracks

[@PenguinDust1969]

I saw this in the theaters when I was a kid. Movies like this were rare back then so we savored every moment. The stories and characters became part of our generational psyche. The music might not be Daft Punk, but the soundtrack along with the music in Bladerunner would arguably inspire the soundtracks of modern video games such as Mass Effect, Hotline Miami and Crypt Of The Necrodancer. It's all part of the synthwave movement from back then and the retro-return of the last decade.

[@thenerdywave2007]

So excited to see John and Andrew react to this movie! This movie has some crazy and pretty good visuals! 👍

[@torikazuki8701]

Here's an interesting story for you guys- I've been on the Internet since 1995 & full-time for my Career by 1997. The Internet of that era had tons of things available that now would be on the Deep, or even Dark, Web. People were putting up anything they could, just to have something out there. So, around 1996, I came across an essay a media reporter made about an interview he had with a Retiring BigWig Hollywood Exec back in 1989. They were basically doing a kind of Biography/Retrospective of his career. During the Interview, the Reporter asked the Exec what he thought the most Religious film Hollywood had ever made, was. Expecting the Exec to bring up some film like 'Ben-Hur' or 'The Ten Commandments'. The Guy sat back in his chair, stared at the ceiling for a moment, then, with complete seriousness, looked the reporter straight in the eye and said- 'Tron'. The Reporter was so surprised he didn't know what to say. When I came across this article, it was years before I started keeping everything I thought was strange or worthwhile, so I didn't copy it. I was never able to find it again, but I've never forgotten it. When you consider how widespread the concept of 'Simulation Theory' has become (The Idea that OUR reality is a Simulation, like a stupendously complex computer program), it makes one wonder if the Exec knew something we didn't. This was back in 1989, remember. And if you look at the film from OUR perspective, from the view that the Computer World is OUR World, then yes, it makes sense why the Retiring Exec would say that 'Tron' was a Religious film.

[@dahobdahob]

This came out when I was in junior high. It was absolutely amazing. They used stacks of Amigas to do the CGI rendering. I still hear the grid bug theme in my sleep sometimes (because of the video game)

[@Luneowl]

Same here! I loved the arcade version and the music is permanently etched into my brain.

[@jacobnatal8440]

Its funny you should mention the Matrix and point out in this movie the endless cubicles in the office building. There is a scene in the Matrix where Neo is running from agent Smith in a maze of cubicles towards an office where Neo tries to escape but fails.

[@TheeGoatPig]

I was around 7 when this came out, and saw it sometime after it came to tv in the following year or so. My family mocked me mercilessly for years for liking it... At some point in my teen years, or maybe my 20s I stood up to them saying, "yes, I do like Tron, and I don't care if you don't, so shut up about it already."

I saw "Tron" when it first came out in theaters, but thinking about it when I watch it today, I'm struck by how much it relies on sheer charm to keep things moving, keep the audience invested and to make up for what they weren't able to do with CGI effects yet.

Not to hate on it, but outside of the CHI, this movie falls incredibly flat. The dialogue is... something else.

Know what I love about this movie? It was the first media in which I came to notice the trope of the main protagonist not being the bad ass character. Tron was the "hero" character not Flynn. In Tombstone Doc Holiday was the bad ass not Wyatt Earp. In Robotech Max Sterling was the super ace pilot not Rick Hunter.

57:18 Music by the amazing Wendy Carlos Who also made the music for The Shining. Apparently this score was so complex that the orchestra had a difficult time performing the music which is why a lot of it was supplemented with synth. It was one of those happy accidents however it was meant to be fully orchestral. Overall this film is highly underrated and they really push the boundaries with this film. Despite it being highly colorized the film was primarily shot in monochrome. The themes and ideas were so radical for the time considering that computers were still in such a primitive state compared to today's computer. For example a lot of the computer terminology was still relatively unknown when the film came out. So it's a really fascinating how complex this film was story wise and technology wise!

Wendy Carlos was born Walter Carlos. Quite possibly the World's first trans composer. Or at least, the first really well-known one.
