“Get Your Hands Off Her, You Bit!”
AICN is having some kind of “Tron-ify other movies” contest for some reason (I’d look it up, but that would require me reading AICN). The general consensus is that the above Alien clip is the best one so far, although you’re welcome to judge the other entries yourself right here. For me, the big story is how fucking delighted I am with myself for coming up with the article headline for this. All it really shows is what an obnoxious Tron fanboy I am, so if you don’t get it, consider that a good thing. Thanks to Vinnie for the tip.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
