Daft Punk had no business popping off as hard as they did with this movie's soundtrack!
The craziest thing about Daft Punk's soundtrack is that they recorded it without even seeing the film.
I've always felt that CGI Jeff Bridges looks bad for real Jeff Bridges, but great for Clu because Clu is supposed to be an imperfect, uncanny copy.
I love it when a Disney movie doesn't look like something done by Disney
Fun fact: the growling/rumbling sound that Rinzler makes is the same sound one might hear from a damaged and corrupted Hard Drive that is having trouble functioning properly.
Jaby is too funny 😂😂!! Get her social security number haha
Flynn did age on the Grid but at a much slower rate. 21 years past in the real world but over 1000 years had passed on the Grid. Which is why when Sam said it's been a long time, his dad said "you have no idea." Time moves much faster on the Grid.
One of most advanced visually aesthetic movies produced in that time and it still looks very very futuristic even by today's CGI examples...
"Why would you put the computer in front of the laser beam?!" -- So Flynn could go in by himself, it's like a selfie setup.
I still don’t get it why Disney is not re-releasing this on IMAX!!!! Fans would go crazy just to get a glimpse of this Masterpiece on such a big screen with good sound
