As someone in music, yeah, that was one of the best movie soundtrack’s of all time (not much like it in movies beforehand).

But kind of disagree about the film, think it was under appreciated. It isn’t a masterpiece, but the acting, the overall story, and the visuals were really good. And yeah, those dark Tron-visuals combined with the pulsing, digital daft-punk music really worked (at least for me), and when I want to get pulled into a different world, will rewatch that film.

Yeah I still rewatch it occasionally. I feel like it’s full of missed opportunities, and you have to shut your brain off, but it’s still good fun.
Agreed, good way to put it:)
The Overture sounds like Chariots of Fire and The Lord of the Rings had a baby in the beginning, followed by a Kraftwerk wannabe who couldn't afford a vocoder.
haha, not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing:)
Bad. Very bad.

Maybe it's my prejudice against helmets - I bike 120km every weekend without one, so sue me - but Daft P annoy me.

haha, all good, to each their own:)
