Topic: TRON

Before you ask - no, I don't have the original recording. I wish I did, but I can't find it anywhere.

Re: TRON

This is going to be interesting on my end because the only copy of the movie I have at the moment is one where I added an iRiff to the audio, so along with the faint dialog I'll hear faint mocking while listening to you guys do your thing.

Glad you like sir, you're quite welcome.  I haven't listened to the director commentary in quite a while, but from what I remember it is pretty interesting stuff.  All that stuff Eddie mentioned about having to bolt the camera to the floor so it wouldn't move, wild; if only they'd had Boujou.  Amazing how far we've come.

Re: TRON

While it's still downloading in iTunes, I note that the metadata for TRON says: "Down in Front presents Reservoir Dogs." I'm guessing that's not entirely correct.

Re: TRON

After hearing you guys comment on no subtitles for either this or Reservoir Dogs... have you tried just using the closed captioning on the TV? That's how I got subtitles on Reservoir Dogs while listening to you guys.

Re: TRON

On the subject that was brought up during the discussion about the occurrence of the hero having to realize his heroic duty/potential by assisting another to complete the quest/save the day.

A fantasy novel that approaches this on two fronts is that of Mistborn, the back of the book quote that kinda sold the idea to me was ... wow this is from memory so ... There was a hero that was destined to defeat the great evil and save the world, there is always a hero, but what if in this story he failed, and now we live in the world that is left.

It is a interesting series if you haven't read it, and to make it germain it approaches this concept both in the primary story with the main cast, as well as eventually through flashbacks to the failed hero.

Re: TRON

I think they all have to have SOMETHING for the hearing impaired, so if there's no subtitle option there have to be closed captions.

Re: TRON

So i finally sat down and watched Tron, I had seen bits and pieces here and there and then I listened to the DiF of it, but I'd never actually sat down and watched it. But now i have, and i gotta say i really have no clue what you guys are talking about re: the actually not goodness of it and lagging nature of it. I kept waiting for it to turn so sour that you guys were left dumbstruck by it, but it never came. Maybe my glasses are a bit tinted towards 80's movies especially 80's sci-fi (And Tron definitely had it's 80's-ness showing at times), but honestly I never felt the length and I was legitimately entertained through pretty much the entire thing.

Now will I feel that way the second time though? Well that remains to be seen, but I think so... at least for once more.

However I'm curious...to which exceedingly long disc sequence do you guys keep referring to? Because any of the light disc scenes I saw were of a perfectly reasonable length, and I'm worried I may have unknowingly passed out partway through without my knowing it and that would suck...because I like the movie I remember. tongue

Anyways...Imma gonna go back to trying to find time to see Legacy again.

Maybe there's a "those like it" that does. If not, maybe there will be if enough people think the idea behind Blender's a good one.
