Rules For Frustration Board




tonight I am going to see "Tron Legacy", a film sequel to the 1982 "cult" to a certain slice of cineamatori fans of the genre science fiction and the like. It's "Tron", directed by Steven Lisberger, it made history with his other later works. This however, he sees a young (and cute) starring Jeff Bridges, it's definitely interesting even if it is lily-aged, with special effects and use of computer graphics, in the era of "Avatar" are undeniable tenderness.

History (from MYmovies.it ). Kevin Flynn is the author of some very successful games, but the ENCOM, the company that owns the rights, he expelled them and pretends to be his own creations. In an attempt to recover data that could prove the paternity of their intellectual works, Flynn sneaks into the palace of the company, and a terminal tries to bypass the internal protections. He realizes, however, the MCP, the central processor unit (which brings together all the brainy computer ENCOM and has developed a form of autonomous intelligence) and through an experimental laser delivers creative in the world of computers. Kevin Flynn discovers that there is a universe in which the programs have human form, in which the MCP controls as a dictator, that video games are actually deadly battles, and that creative people like him are forbidden objects of cults like religious deities.
To leave the world of computers Flynn will have to fight the Central Intelligence, helped by software programmed by his two friends, one of which, Tron, will manage the end to free programs from the dictatorship of the MCP.

Despite an intriguing idea (and I can only assume, since I was born in those months, innovative for its time), the film's screenplay is weak on the plans and construction of a rhythm. The plot is too straight and without twists sacrosanct. It is true that we are not really in an action movie, but the apparent slowness and the atmosphere seem to be suspended due more to weak oiling the gears of the film, rather than a precise stylistic choice. However, "Tron" retains its charm, an aesthetic, a little 'for the avant-garde film that represents the universe (the first film set in a computer?), A little' to the symbolic power of his characters and the plot (although ... fine emulation of certain aspects of the saga "Star Wars? ask the experts.) programmers are" creative ", venerated and admired. The Master Control Program in some ways recalls a giant Big Brother, for other cumbersome Soviet bureaucracy.

With my mates home projection, we went to comb through the cast of the film. Among the names, someone will meet again tonight in the sequel, someone else instead, we have found, over time, many beloved film. Among the leaders, in fact, is reported to Tim Burton.
