New Tron, Oh My!

^{You've got it all wrong Jeff, you'll never be Iron Man at this rate}

A while back I saw the trailer for the new Tron movie, and I have to admit it looked pretty cool. I wasn't a massive fan of the original, mostly because I didn't watch it until about 3 years ago, and it has aged really badly. But this new one has a LOT going for it.

• Jeff Bridges
• Creepy CGI Jeff Bridges>
• Olivia Wilde
• The kickass lightcycles

And finally:

• A soundtrack by daft fucking punk that sounds seriously awesome.

I'll link the trailers here for anyone who cares to see them, by god they look fantastic. And I'm not usually one who is taken in by pretty lights and computer graphics.

Excerpts from the soundtrack are available here. I don't know how legitimate the page is, so it could disappear at any time, but since it's a radio station, I assume it is on the level. I especially like daft1.mp3. It's pretty badass.


In other news, anyone who knows me knows my love of round-headed buffoon Karl Pilkington. So it is with great joy that I discovered he has a new show on sky (boo!) in which he travels the world, visiting the seven wonders and managing to be disappointed by each one of them. Here's the trailer (apologies for it containing Ricky Gervais. I hate him too):

I love him. Even though his head is like a fucking orange.
