+2 for Tron Legacy. I play through the soundtrack on long drives or when I just need an hour of thoughtless music. It’s a movie I’ll watch when nothing else is on. It just gives me a certain feeling like rather than seeing something cool, I feel more like I’m experiencing a different world. It scratches an exploration itch outside the normal avenues (space, underwater, wilderness, etc) by being a non-tangible universe. And of course the non-traditional score composed by Daft Punk is entirely the right choice for a digital world film. Maybe it kinda resembles playing a video game, which should be exactly the goal anyway. I know the visual stun comes from dark scenes and flares of lights, feeling like an amalgam of the Onion headline saying “Not sure if art actually good, or just lights up” but who am I to argue with the mush running my body?
