This Tuesday, we invite you to extend the game started by this poster from Tone Deaf. Here, they’ve attributed Lord of the Rings characters to various band instruments. Now, we’d like you to do the same thing with characters from Tron and Uno cards! Is Flynn a Wild or Wild Draw 4? Do you have to say “Tron!” before putting down your last card or “End of line?” We’ll leave you to decide.
We’ve also wrangled some nice offiste links for you.
Highlights include:
- A place to buy the above poster.
- Harrison Ford Blade Runner 2 rumblings.
- The re-telling of The Death and Life of Superman you didn’t know you needed.
