Tron

Just seen TRon and the thing I keep asking myself, Why and how did the director ever persuad Disney into producing this magnificent but not very Disney minded movie?

Have you ever seen Something Wicked This Way Comes...  now thats a Disney film, rotting corpses, snakes, spiders and Jonathan Price. Tron is one of my favorite films,but it does seem that it's one of the films Disney want to forget about,but rumors persist that Tron 2.0 will be out in 2002,I guess you gonna have to wait and see.

Well, it was around this time that Disney, after having lost a lot of its audience during the '70s with a number of infantile movies, was really trying to gain that audience back. So they were looking for movies that would break the impression that all they made were goofy kiddie movies.
