I fell asleep about 15 minutes into Tron, the 1982 DayGlo sci-fi adventure starring Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner, so about the only handshake I have with the movie is countless quarters wasted on the arcade game of the...
Tron: Legacy is a movie I have zero interest in seeing this holiday season. Don’t get me wrong, I love Jeff Bridges and I enjoy a fanciful romp through video game land as much as the next guy, but...
I know I’ve been critical of Toy Story 3 in previous posts, but this poster rocks. I’m starting to warm to the idea of a third Toy Story movie. I mean, it’s Pixar for crying out loud. They poop...
