Homeland security classifies TRON as "Sensitive"

TRON
BURBANK, CA - Reports are emerging from members of the movie industry that the Department of Homeland Security has designated the 1982 film TRON as "sensitive", and ordered Walt Disney Studios to turn over all copies of the film in its posession. Retailers are also receiving notices to remove all copies of the film from stock shelves and turn them over to Federal officials. The reports have industry insiders bewildered and outraged.


Apparently portions of the movie were filmed at a nuclear research facility, and new high-resolution versions of the film would reveal too much of interest to terrorists. I think.

Read the full story about TRON at kuro5hin.org for more.


Edit: True? Not true? Aren't we a few days early for April Fools? And can anyone be faulted for readily believing that the current administration would pull a bonehead move like this?

Yeah, I saw that tag but figured it just meant that TRON was fiction. See my edit above.
