I think this one plays so well today because, though they did the best they could at the time, the special effects look like an older model PC game and let's face it, kids are into thier PC games!
"TRON" takes the prize for my favorite early "CGI" style film. The thing that amazes me about "TRON" is that i some ways, thyey were not using actual CGI graphics but very ingenious old school animated special effects! When you watch how they actually made the film, it's quite amazing. In some ways, i compare "TRON" and it's style of animation, to being almost as ground-breaking as "Snow White" was in the 30's. Personal opinion, of course.
