This is episode 87 of The Truth Tank.

In this episode of The Truth Tank, Tank dives deep into Tron: Ares — exploring its vision of the digital frontier, the evolution of the Grid, and what it says about our world. From the film’s stunning VFX and IMAX spectacle to its emotional core of AI, big tech, and family, we examine how Tron continues to blur the line between humanity and code.

Tank compares Tron: Ares with Tron: Legacy, breaking down differences in tone, philosophy, and soundtrack — from Daft Punk’s synth epics to Nine Inch Nails’ darker, industrial sound. We unpack the film’s bold ideas: AI as creation, 3D printing the real from the virtual, and the blurred line between creator and creation. Tron also reflects our modern fears about unchecked AI and big tech, all while telling deeply personal human story.

At its heart lies the haunting question: what does it mean to be real — and can something artificial ever truly be alive or conscious?
