Tron...Sweded!

Michel Gondry’s Be Kind Rewind might have not taken off at the box office, but it definitely spawned a movement of online sweded short films. I’ve seen a lot of said sweded trailer. Some of them are funny, some of them creative, a lot of them are bad (hey, thats what you get in the YouTube generation where everyone has a video camera).

Def. of Sweding - The process of Mike and Jerry's (be kind rewind movie characters) efforts to recreate their erased videos is described as sweding in the film. The tapes are described as having come from Sweden as an excuse for higher rental fees and longer wait times.

TRON sweded is probably the best made sweded movie to date. Sure, it lacks the comedy, but what it lacks in fun, it makes up with creative cinematography. Watch TRON sweded below.
