Tron Legacy

It's at least a year away, but jeez, the concept art alone is brilliant.

Me too.  Found a trailer for it here.  http://www.filmjunk.com/2009/07/24/tron-legacy-trailer/

I hope it's DARK! With dark moments! And dark darkness with DarkdEDaRkDARRRRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKOMFGDARK!

Mixed feelings about the soundtrack. They have a good sound, and they say they're fans (which is always the case with these things and ALWAYS the truth!!!) but I like Wendy Carlos' stuff better for Tron.

I freaking love Tron. Always have. I've seen it a thousand times and I still tell people "Shh shutup shutup shh I like this part!"

The Daft Punk deal is an awesome idea.  I hope the payoff is just as awesome.

Since when were lightcycles able to swerve and move in curves? 

The mind, it boggles.

Looks cool though.

As soon as they left the game grid in the original movie. It's weird that they've got solid tails, not that they're non-orthagonal.

The 3D trailer (about 2min 20sec) should be on pretty much all showings of Alice in Wonderland 3D.  Watched it a couple nights ago and it looks pretty good.

I was wondering just last night when we'd get updated on some TRON. Hell yeah. I have a sneaking suspicion that the TRON trailer is better than Alice 3D. Still haven't seen Shutter Island or The Crazies, so I'll have to wait.

I saw this in the Cinema when it came out in Ireland 83/84, I remember being blown away by it. Looking forward to this one.

I'm going to escape, come back, wipe this place off the face of the Earth, obliterate it and you with it.

TRON made me the geek I am today, my interest in computers can be directly traced to that movie in my impressionable childhood.  While I realize that the movie isn't all that great, I still enjoy it, along with TRON 2.0.  They'd have to really fuck up Legacy to make me unhappy, as I'm just going to see digital guys in neon suits throw frisbees at each other.

Saw the trailer at Alice.  No neon suits, but neon piping instead.  Which I can't object to at all, with as many very lovely women who were in the trailer. I must find who the program on the couch was... very nice.

Yes, very much yes.

One of the early comments over on io9 put it better than I ever could:

This is looking damn good.  I hate trailers because they give most of the movie away, but it's soooo hard NOT to get a sneak peek.  With Jeff Bridges winning the Oscar, that could give serious push behind this movie.  I do hope they have Bit floating around somewhere and yes, that girl is stunning.

Apparently the music played with the trailer was custom made for it.  I cannot wait to hear that soundtrack.

I am still opposed to a sequel to Tron, but this is possibly the best trailer I've ever seen. This is beyond awesome.

Olivia Wilde seems pretty enthused about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWtvwG4cfdE

I'm a little skeptical, but the visuals do look quite slick and it sounds like they have a lot of the original team back to work on it -- I'm curious to see if the story/script they end up with can live up the the vfx.

This is the movie Iron Man 2 wishes it could be.

I used to think that Tron was such a fairy tale,
Until that first hello, until that first smile.
But if I had to do it all again
I wouldnt change a thing, cause Tron is everlasting.

Suddenly, life has new meaning to me.
There's beauty up above, and things we never take notice of.
You wake up, suddenly...Tron Legacy.

This was the second movie I saw in a theater, so I am right there with ya on that mall bench oogling the high school girls with my pants up around my collar bones.

(SSC: first movie in a theater was Dark Crystal, and the first movie I ever went to was Star Wars in a Drive-In with my mom)

That was kinda an allusion to Family Guy when Peter sings that song about something amazing.
