TRON legacy

That was the very paragon of trailers!
I need a time machine. First I want to go back to 1982 Watch TRON and hang out in an arcade. Then I want to go to Christmas 2010 and watch TRON Legacy,

Forget the movie... if I could go back to 1982 and hang out in an arcade, I'd be in heaven.

A couple of months ago I was in Manitou, CO, and stumbled across an arcade that had a lot of games from the that era. Unfortunately I didn't have time to play more than a few games, but it was great being in there.

There's an arcade museum near Cincinnati that I've been meaning to make it down to for the past little while, but I haven't yet managed it.

Someone told me that the Iron Man 2 trailer was awesome. I watched it and was like "ok, I'll go see it, but meh." Then I watched the Tron Legacy trailer, and THEN I got excited.

I watched the original as a kid growing up, and thought it was the coolest movie ever, along with Goonies. I played Tron 2.0 on the PC and even bought Kingdom Hearts 2 for the Tron level. I'm really excited for this movie. I don't know how I feel about the kid in the movie yet, but hey, its got Jeff Bridges in it, so I'm good.

Last couple of times I've been with my family at DisneyQuest I pretty much hung out all the time in the "vintage" section while my wife was dragged by my son all over the building. [Razz]

I've been thinking about building a MAME cabinet, but I can't quite justify the expense. It just isn't the same playing ROMs of the games using a keyboard as your interface, though.

Yeah, that looks pretty awesome.

And all of you vintage gamers, I highly recommend The King of Kong.
