It seems that the Department of Homeland Security has classified the film TRON as “Sensitive”. I think I’ll watch my 20th Anniversary DVD this weekend. I wonder what a 13- and 17-year-old raised on CGI will think of it.

tell me this is a joke? Or an April Fool’s posting?
Note that the FBI agent quoted in the story is named Lirpa Sloof.
Yes, it’s a joke. Lirpa Sloof is April Fools backwards. And it’s in the Fiction section of the original website. Gotta be on your toes this time of year!
Ok, I fell for it but the date on the article is “Thu Mar 29, 2007”. Had it been dated April 1, I won’t have been sucked in.
thank goodness. But, just in case, I’m going out to buy a copy of Tron before they are all pulled off the shelves!!
