It was probably before your time.

Here's the Wikipedia link for Tron and the IMDB listing for Tron (1982)

When the movie came out in 1982, personal computers were just being popularized (instead of using mainframes), and were entering more of the public consciousness.

It was "cutting edge" cool animation (one of the first to use computer-generated animation), kind of like living in a video game, and has a place in the heart of many geeky computer nerds from back then. Yep, that'd be me.

Come to think of it, it's kind of "Matrix"-like (perhaps you do know that movie?), in the whole alternate cyber-reality parallel universe concept.

Tron came out in 1982. It was one of the first movies about hackers and computer programs that I remember. The movie was also amazing for it's time due to the computer graphics in the movie. You can look it up on any search engine by typing Tron movie.

Hope this helps!

Oh I love Tron. It was one of the first (and last) movies I saw at a Drive-In.

Yeah, Tron is cool. It's old, but cool. It was WAY before my time. But, I know all about it thanks to I Love the 80's and Kingdom Hearts II. Havn't heard about Tron stuff on VMK though. I'll keep my fingers crossed!
