I enjoyed the article only becasue I'm a huge Tron fan... but one of my pet peeves are journalists that are so narcissistic, they write the interview with themselves as the main subject... who the hell are you and who cares... focus on the subject you are interviewing! There used to be an old saying in journalism "The journalist isn't the news, the news is the news." Use the space to tell me as much about Jeff and Tron as you can. In this piece, Jeff Bridges doesn't even become the main grammatical subject until the SIXTH paragraph, and from then on only intermittently since the journalist keeps reverting back to himself as the subject of the prose throughout the rest of the piece. I couldn't care less about the journalist and his thoughts, it's Jeff's I want to read about.
