Matinee Heroes Talking TRON

Matinee Heroes talking TRON

Last month, I guested on the Matinee Heroes podcast to talk about TRON. Not specifically in honor of its 40th anniversary, but more because co-host Alan Cerny picked it as his birthday episode. He was nice enough to let me show up (not hiding in the cake) and find out just how similar our thoughts are about that classic ground-breaking science fiction film.

Co-host Craig Price, Alan, and I talked about the TRON celebration at Comic-Con, earlier encounters with star Bruce Boxleitner, and just how big an impact this film made on us. As always, the podcast also reimagines it recast with the advantage of a time machine.

Please give it a listen here. While you’re there, check out the merchandise. Craig commissions some excellent t-shirt designs.
