Tron is on Sci-Fi network right now

Just in case anybody's interested.   
I haven't seen it since it came out in the theater.  Only about 6 minutes in so far.

Never seen it before, thanks!

Just out of curiousity, did the movie or game come first?

I believe the movie came first.   While I remember being a kid and digging the movie, my guess is that the game was/is more popular :)

The movie inspired the game, but I think the game released before the movie IIRC... kinda cross promotional.

Much more. The game was a success. The movie was not (though, now it's a cult classic). Personally, I watched the movie a few months ago on my iPod (good movie to watch on the go).

I know by now not to click that link. It takes hours for me to get the image of that guy un-etched from my mind.  :P

Did you really need to post that link? Really now?! Ughh...

For whatever reason, I didn't read your post, Santoro, before clicking the link.
