"As Tron evolved, it became more of an oddball project. “We were a threat to the animation department. We were a threat to the special effects department. We were a threat to conventional live-action,” Lisberger says. Star Wars made a kind of sense, with its knights and princesses. But combine the avant-garde production design of Tron (and multiple outside contractors doing CG) with what turned into a very religious script about living “programs” trying to commune with godlike “users” in the real world? In the actual real world, hardly anyone had ever touched a computer. You can see how that story would seem strange."
