We’ve got the Dude and the Scarecrow bustin’ heads and lettin’ the chin music ring out inside the metal box of a computer.
They fight Moses from Southpark for control over all the world’s knowlege way before Sky Net.
They have mouths and occasionally they scream.
We’ll see how the repercussions of this film will be resolved in the upcoming sequel Tron Legacy.
