Being in the Computer

Jodi reviews a couple movies we've seen recently, Tron and Dr. Dolittle. We picked up a couple classics at the library – a deal Blockbuster can't touch. –)

It was intersting seeing Tron again after all these years – I remember it being a seminal point in my childhood (I was 11 when it came out), as do many other geeks I'm sure. The movie effects were not the incredible effects I remember, yet I can see how they were breakthroughs at the time. Jodi put it best: "You geeks just liked it because it shows your dream – being inside the computer!"
