After three years of podcasting,
nearly 80 episodes, and covering 200 arcade games, it’s time to
switch our focus to something with more audience potential. So
we’re going full Hollywood and rebranding as a video arcade game…
movie podcast! To start we’re covering the live-action Walt Disney
classic, Tron.
How
was this movie inspired by Pong? What convinced Tron’s creator to
move away from traditional animation and incorporate CGI for the
first time? Is Flynn’s Arcade the best golden age arcade
representation ever shown on the silver screen? Does Tron include
an example of the Mandela Effect?
As
we analyze this movie we’ll also talk about jai alai, PastBlaster’s
recent trip to Galloping Ghost Arcade, the best movie soundtrack
ever composed, Robin Williams, using Miyagi-Do as an insecticide,
and a follow-up discussion on T-MEK.
