You are understandably pumped for the new Tron movie. It's only natural. Ever since you saw the trailer during previews for Inception it's all you can talk about. In fact, you wish they could somehow combine the two movies into one big genre-defying shroom hallucination. (You said that.)
Fortunately, that cannot be accomplished or your delicate egg shell of a mind would shatter into a thousand pieces. But Tron: Legacy boasts a different, excellent collaboration. According to Pitchfork, Daft Punk scored the soundtrack to the Jeff Bridges sequel which will be released around the same time as the film. (Late December-ish.)
I can't think of a more perfect comination than Daft Punk and Tron. They're like those two assholes from You've Got Mail - always crossing paths, never meeting until Tom Hanks' realizes they were meant for each other and manipulates Meg Ryan until the conclusion of the movie, where his dog runs into the park and they kiss forever. It's like that.

Lindsay, I hope that some day you look back at these vacuous, self-indulgent posts with the same mortified revulsion of someone looking through their eighth-grade yearbook.

I'm reading what you said Lord Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. too boring. I find Lindsay's assessment of 'You've Got Mail' to be completely and empirically correct. She left out that the dog was humping their legs while they kissed and the movie unforgivably did not feature Dave Chappelle making the two whitest people in the world uncomfortable.
Thanks, 8th grade. @Zodd, your many weird and hostile comments are either indicative of someone without a sense of humor, or of someone looking for objective news reporting at hooksexup.com. This is a blog. We write jokes. If you can't handle that, I urge you to explore elsewhere.
I thought it was a good post, and couldn't agree more that tron and daft punk are the perfect combo.
@Zodd, sounds like 8th grade was a rough year. Maybe you should relax and take the hate elsewhere.
@ 8GY, LC + EF: agreed.
Don't take the bait, typical web commenter just wanting a reaction without a good point or basis. Ignore/delete.
I dunno, Tron + Daft Punk seems almost too easy of a combo. Clint Mansell would have been a gimme too. Would have been interesting to see them change it up, maybe use Danger Mouse or the Neptunes to do some instrumental stuff.
Why are we talking about this now? The Daft Punk score was announced months ago and rumored well over a year ago. This is the opposite of news.
Yes, well, haven't you heard, DS? This is a "blog." They don't have to report on news. Or "news." They make jokes!
