[PIGMI] TRON the game

[Simon Wittber]

> The film is good by virtue of the soundtrack, which wasn't even made by the movie makers themselves... ??? That's almost like saying a movie was good because the seats were comfortable ;)

Would you enjoy a meat pie without tomato sauce? The two ingredients
work together to make something greater than the sum of their parts.

Considering a movie apart from it's soundtrack is similar to
considering pancakes without maple syrup, or a chocolate cake, with no
icing!

A few other films that even depend on the soundtrack to carry the
film, yet have critical acclaim:
 - Close Encounters of the Third Kind
 - Requiem for a Dream
 - Titanic :-)


The soundtrack was a perfect fit to the film, lots of crunchy, low
fidelity filters and effects, simple synths reminiscent of cheesy
arcade sound boards, melded perfectly with orchestral sections. While
the soundtrack may sound repetitive on the surface (to an unaccustomed
ear) you can dig very deep and discover a plenty of pleasing harmonics
and subtle progressions.

The story was simple, and a common one, but that doesn't make it a bad
story. I went in to the cinema with no expectations, and came out with
a positive experience.
