Period. I do not say this lightly. I was nine-years-old when the first TRON was released in theaters back in the summer of 1982. The same summer my father brought home an Apple II computer, this film comes out depicting programs as living beings. For me and an entire generation of curious kids, TRON brought the inside of computers to life. I cannot overstate what an impact TRON (along with other 80s films like WarGames and Cloak and Dagger) had on me. By the end of 1982 I owned the entire line of TRON toys (TOMY only released four action figures and two light cycles), which I looked at for inspiration as I poked BASIC programs into that Apple II “in the name of the users.” It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that my lifelong interest in computers and even my career can be traced back to TRON.[/quote] Article by <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/commodork.bsky.social">Flack</a>[/quote]
