Tron/Daft Punk? Match made in Heaven?

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Disney answered my prayers.  With the teaser for Tron Legacy they said “Who wants a new Tron movie?” And anyone with eyeballs said, “I do, I do!”

So this puppy is going to have great special effects, it’s going be in IMAX 3D, and it has one more piece of the puzzle that made my ears drool (it’s a disgusting condition, I know, but I couldn’t help it.)  They announced Daft Punk (the best electronic duo (probably) ever) would be doing the soundtrack!  Thinking about this, I can’t imagine another band doing a soundtrack for a new Tron movie.  It’s a match made in heaven.  This movie will be a feast for the senses!  I won’t even care if the movie turns out to be as mentally stimulating as Avatar, my brain will be too busy screaming due to sensory overload!

Here’s the trailer:

Here’s a clip of Daft Punk’s piece of the soundtrack.
That soundtrack thing could be fake, but it sounds pretty good anyway.

Maybe Toys on Fire will have a Tron party? Hmmm!

UPCOMING EVENT: Game Summit Summer 2009!

Friday, August 14th, 2009

Hey Folks!

Just a reminder that the 2009 Summer Game Summit is coming up soon! Some of you are wondering what that is right now, and I’ll tell you. It’s Ottawa’s bi-yearly classic gaming convention. Good old fashioned dice rolling or minature moving or card playing. It’s fun for everyone, with a plethora of board games for people to rent out and try! There’s also lots of Warhammer, W40k and Lord of the Rings tournaments for those with miniatures armies itching for a fight, and an RPG den for people to learn how to play D&D ! I’ve also heard there will be Pokemon and Chaotic tournaments as well. For those more artistically inclined, there’s (miniatures) painting workshops, where you get your very own little miniature that you can practice your painting on and keep after! There’s gonna be loads of paints and and paintbrushes for people to use. Of course, the most obvious reason to go is because we’re gonna be there!

So without further ado, here’s all the info:
