Jamie Oliver's Blog » Films http://blog.alpha-lite.co.uk Jamie Oliver's corner of the web Sun, 06 Feb 2011 14:07:37 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 Tron http://blog.alpha-lite.co.uk/films/tron/ http://blog.alpha-lite.co.uk/films/tron/#comments Tue, 23 Mar 2010 07:51:06 +0000 Jamie Oliver http://blog.alpha-lite.co.uk/?p=643 I recently ended up watching the original Tron film the other day, and it’s flipping brilliant. I’ve heard before about it and never thought much of it, but I went out on a whim to watch it anyway. I’m glad I did. For those that don’t know about Tron, it was a film released in the ’80s based on a guy getting sucked inside of a computer. It had some of the best CGI visuals of it’s time (it still looks impressive today). From this, I ventured out and got the game (Tron 2.0, PC) and that lived up to the film perfectly. I’ve become quite interested lately in old ’80/’90s films based around computers; ending up watching The Net and Sneakers too. It is always interested in to see how old films like this perceive the technological future.

And on another note, I have vowed to actually update this blog more often, as well as use my Twitter account more often. I say this regularly, use it for a while and then forget; but I don’t want it to be the case this time. Not that anyone listens anyway. As if I haven’t posted in about 4 months, not good.

Sexy new blog layout coming later, woop woop. =]
