 (The 7th Level) | Tron
(1982)
Animal
Outfit: Bruce Boxlieter's Face / Android Version of Mr. Good Body's Leotard Tagline: "I'm also better than you!" Plot summary: Tron was created by his user, Alan One, to police Encom's computer network and block any unauthorized ingoing/outgoing traffic, including any unauthorized activities of the MCP (Master Control Program.) In Layman's terms, this meant he ran around hitting people with his glowing Frisbee, and saying things like "You're a user?!" to Jeff Bridges whilst keeping a straight face, which should have won him an Oscar. (more) User Comments: Tron is, in reality, a command from the BASIC programming language. It's short for "turn on." This is why the character of Tron ran around in a skintight glowing leotard that showed off his impressive cyber package. The producers wanted to pull in that seldom catered to "mid-twenties attractive female computer dork" demographic. Of course, the film bombed, because everyone knows there's no such thing (if you don't count Morgan Webb, and she was four years old when this movie came out.) No, the only people who got turned on by this film were 80's era computer geeks, who'd been spending months in their parent's garage trying to figure out a way to fuck their Apple IIe. This is why Steve Jobs banned viewings of Tron on the Apple Campus for being too "pornographic." Those nerds got an eyeful of the character of Yori, Tron's piece of cyber ass, and it gave them hope for a brighter tomorrow. For most, that hope turned out to be arrest records, when the teenage ass they tried to score with in Tron 2.0 online campaigns turned out to be members of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
