I, also, unapologetically love Tron: Legacy. And it always baffles me when people criticize it while at the same time praising the original (which I also love).

How did the apollo astronauts stand that heat

@benjamindrayton1380 2 года назад

Spacesuits had insulation and climate-control. To grossly oversimplify it. Also it's only that hot in the direct sunlight. Since there's no atmosphere the heat isn't maintained in the shadow areas so the astronauts actually complained about having cold fingertips and now space suits have little heaters in the gloves.

@jazzycat8917 2 года назад

The idea that Finn Jones went into a role that is defined by martial arts and refused to pratice or train properly in said martial arts boggles my mind. Like surely thats not the whole story, SURELY. Coz if that were true there's no way Netflix wouldn't have fired him at the first sign of trouble, because you don't get to be the lead character in a martial arts show and refuse to do the required training, especially when you don't even come from a martial arts background to begin with.

@doomstadt2371 2 года назад

I mean, it's not like he's some big name with a ton of clout, the second he said he wasn't training they could have booted him and no one would have cared lol.

Jenny Lewis from Salute Your Shorts and the bands Rilo Kiley & Postal Service is the girl in The Wizard. It's actually a pretty good After School special kind of movie if you cut out all the Nintendo stuff, Slater and Bridges are fine and the trucker sequence is fun, also if you like the film "Paris, Texas" theres a familiar location. But yeah it's we're mostly weird advertising crap, but I loved it as a kid and being 35 now, was the perfect age to be completely suckered in by it.

Ok late to this video, but The Wizard was a favorite movie as a kid and I'd kill for more content about it.
