Watch Me Entertain Myself!

Sacha Guitry once said, "You can pretend to be serious, but you can't pretend to be witty." Oh yes, I'm the great pretender.

Tron-tastic!

Two things: Tron and Daft Punk! I am sooo stoked for this one.


I remember watching the original one on—wait for it!—Betamax! (Now you can breathe.) The special visual effects were so primitive that it was like watching first-generation Atari. Today they can do anything visually, including make Jeff Bridges look 30 years younger.

The first movie looked amazing for a teen like me, but the plot was so thin, no model would want to stand next to it. Now this 2.0 version looks and sounds stunning, but I’m ready to put my brain down on the chair beside me when I watch this. Hey, it’s just eye-and ear-candy; anything beyond that will be a pleasant surprise.
