In terms of plot, Tron is the silliest computer movie ever made.

I have to disagree. Electric Dreams is easily the silliest computer movie ever made.
I am just glad I bought my DVD several years ago.

Well if we are going down the "not even trying to be serious" route then you might as well put Wierd Science up there as well. I meant films where they are "serious" about the pc aspect. Horrible Horrible film btw... mad props for actually knowing about it! ;)

Let me clarify what I mean by hold up. I realize this means different things to different people. Tron is still enjoyable for me to watch. Unlike other movies such as Superman II or Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band which for some reason I liked as a kid and now are not in the least bit fun to watch. I agree with you about the younger generation. I'm actually surprised when I meet someone born in the 80's that likes the movie.

I agree 100% although this is part of the charm of the movie for me.
To me the most unrealistic part of Tron is Flynn. He is owns an arcade (which he lives in), plays video games and apparently still gets babes. ;D
