Neon grids, Daft Punk beats, and some questionable CGI Jeff Bridges — this week we dive into Disney’s Tron: Legacy (2010). Jon and Donald are joined again by fan-favorite Editor Dan for a wild ride through the Grid, complete with light cycles, disc battles, and theology that somehow feels like “bad Christian mythology” wrapped in a Mickey Mouse glow.

The trio debates whether the movie is underrated or just a product of its 2010 vibes, explores Joseph Kosinski’s rise from commercials to Top Gun: Maverick, and breaks down the world-building that makes Legacy stand out from the original. Expect tangents on Daft Punk, racing movies, Killian Murphy cameos, and why Kevin Flynn’s bachelor-pad hideout screams “stoner design chic.”

👉 Listen now to hear whether Tron: Legacy deserves “almost classic” status — or if it’s just a gorgeous, neon mess.
