A while back I added Tron to our Netflix queue so we would be able to watch it in preparation for the new moving coming out – as I’ve never seen it.

Yeah, yeah….here come the admonishments – get it aaaaalllllll out now, because I’m not going to wait around for hours while ya’ll try and come up with all of the sad and deprived scenarios that would illustrate my life in comparison.

Done?

Good.

We knew it was in our queue, but I couldn’t remember if it was a play on demand movie or if we actually needed the DVD for it.  So Craig brings Netflix up on the TV and does a search.

His search criteria?  “Tron”.  Crazy right??  There were 4 hits in his search results – and we’re going to go in reverse order to list them.

4) Trona – ok….well that’s a reasonable hit.

3) Tron(2010) – clearly we understand why this is here.

2) Tron (1982) – also completely expected.

Here’s where my brow got a little furrowy.

The number 1 hit when searching Netflix for “Tron”??  (This ABSOLUTELY requires a drum roll…..)

1) The Bloody Judge

Well of course we would get The Bloo- wait….what??  The Bloody Judge?  That doesn’t even have an “R” in it!  Or an “N” for that matter.  So of the WHOLE FOUR LETTERS in the search criteria, 50% of them are missing?!?!?

I…but it doesn’t….see it was a simple….hmmmm

But wait – there’s more!

We opened the details of the movie to try and determine what in the world would cause this to beat out – oh….say TRON as a search result.  You never know – it’s possible that the Victorian era magistrates ran around in white leotards with lighty discy thingers (again, haven’t seen the movie – no idea what all of THAT’S about), with their big shoe buckles glowing a bright iridescent blue – all the while their grey powdered wigs flapping at their ears as they scream perfectly structured English at each other.

In looking ANYWHERE for the letters t-r-o-n somewhere in the description we couldn’t help but notice the genres assigned to the movie:

Horror Classics

Supernatural Horror

Steamy Romance

?!?!?!?!   Who ARE these people???  Now the movie doesn’t even match ITSELF.

We’ve decided that we have to watch this movie.  Because where else are we gonna find a classic, supernatural, steamy romance horror flick?  HEEEELLLOOOOOOOOO!
