Tron
OK, so Tron was a little cheesy, but it can still count as a classic. Disney promised us a world inside a computer and so they gave us a world inside a computer. In this movie, computer programs become people, and programmers, hackers, or just anyone who can use a computer are called users. Users are seen as gods; the creators of this digital world. The villain in this film, the Master Control Program, takes over programs and rules the digital world with an iron (or should that be electric) fist. He is so intelligent that he can even communicate verbally with his user, Dillinger. It's hard to say who the real hero is, Flynn or Tron. Flynn is a user and Tron is a program, and overall I think they wouldn't have won if they didn't work together. The CGI was pretty impressive for a movie in the early 80's. To the modern viewer, they would seem cheap, but they were great effects for '82. They gave a feeling of floating through a digital realm. One of the most iconic parts of the movie, were the lightcycle races. References to these scenes are still made in a lot of mainstream media today. Overall, I think Tron is a classic and the anticipation of the upcoming sequel only fuels my nostalgia for this Disney great.
