Tron Legacy

[Bunk]

In mother UK fender is bumper. I preferred Ironwood's though.

Same in Canada. A fender is the part of the car over the wheel well.

I stalled out around 27. Tiger Heli? Whose retarded cousin named that game?

[LK]

I wonder how safe that Light Cycle is without movie magic keeping it on the road.

[Ironwood]

I just wonder how it is cornering.

 

[Mrbloodworth]

Wouldn't those casings over the wheels limit its ability to lean, and also its turning ability?

[Viin]

Turning is overrated when your motorcycle is made out of AWESOME.

[Abagadro]

The film was shot entirely in 3-D, Kosinski said, using cameras developed by James Cameron.

Michael Sheen, another star of the film, noted that "Tron: Legacy" is actually in 4-D.

"It's a 4-D film because Jeff Bridges brings an extra dimension of awesomeness," Sheen said.

Can't argue with that.

So it is written, so shall it be.

I dunno. Would the casings cause problems with a Light Cycle turning instant 90 degree corners and leaving a solid wall of light behind it?

[HaemishM]

That's not light, that's concentrated awesome.

Holy crap, this movie looks better with every trailer.

Soundtrack samples are starting to pop up. Several are here:

Getting chills.

Do femme TRON programs have vaginas?   Insert the awesome here

I was talking about the real one. 

[Ghambit]

Perhaps the casing will probably just hide the wheel, meaning it'll turn inside of it while the casing remains static.  If the wheel is a slick tire, you wont be able to tell the difference.

You know, from the first movie, I would have said No. But the sequel seems to having the world of Tron be a bit more like the 'real' one. So maybe? 

[Ghambit]

Sex is but a game inside the machine.
That, and/or simply a merging of two files.

They should have two programs cybering in the background of a scene, and since the programs resemble the users, it would be a couple of programs that look like fat 30something nerds. 

[Furiously]

I would fear meeting any Japanese dating sims or oh gawd, second life in tron.

[LK]

I wonder how much influence Tron 2.0 The Game had on this. Also: it's sad that it's non-canon now.

Edit: sad, not said.

[Rishathra]

That's new.  Everything I've heard about the game so far was that they worked closely with the movie makers to tie the stories together.

[LK]

Tron 2.0 was the game from yesteryear where Jet Bradley was the star.

More information.

It was a pretty good game. I'm sure they referenced the IP additions they made when making this movie.

[SurfD]

Yeah, the Tron 2.0 game was based around the adventures of Jet Bradly, son of Alan Bradly, during some kind of hostile takeover of the Encom company by an agency who wanted to use the Digitization tech to create the ultimate Cyber Spys.

Tron Legacy is based on the adventures of Kevin Flynn and his son.

I imagine they might not be able to keep Tron 2.0 in continuity, because of the things that happen in the corporate side of Encom, rather then anything that might happen in the Digital Space.

[Slyfeind]

Nah, Tron 2.0 has nothing to do with Tron Legacy. I can't find any primary sources, but a few minutes of googling should dredge up an interview or two.

Well, some of the confusion may come from one of the plot devices in Tron 2.0, where you are searching for the "Tron Legacy Code", some old code for the original Tron Program that was not compiled into the "build" that was the Tron program in the first movie.

[Rishathra]

I know Tron 2.0 isn't canon, I was referring to the new game that they are making to coincide with the movie.

[Kitsune]

There were plans for a Tron 2.0 movie being batted around at the time the game came out.  Mentions were made of 'hip new generations of young users with extreme digital sports', so it's probably for the best that it was never made, because it sounded utterly retarded.

And yeah, the 2.0 and Legacy versions of the future of Tron are pretty mutually exclusive.  Legacy Alan seems oblivious of the digital world, which wouldn't've been possible had the events in 2.0 occurred.

[Rishathra]

Not that I disagree that 2.0 and Legacy are incompatible, but Alan had that knowing smile look when he says "wouldn't that be something" in the trailer, so I suspect he does know.

[Slyfeind]

Yeah that's the feeling I get too. Flynn and Alan were friends. He woulda told him about it, probably at great length. Hell, they still had the laser. He might have taken him there...!

New trailer up

[Surlyboi]

Fuck. Yeah.

[Ghambit]

Where the hell is the Tron 'program' in all of this??
I'm gonna assume he's in there somewhere... just no mention of it in the trailers.

In re. this new trailer:

I have been following this on failbook since I fan'd it. Nice teaser trailers and what-not, but this was my question too. Have to wait and see, but since no mention of Tron the program make me think he was destroyed... Maybe Flynn wrote another CLU program which went rogue? no ideas.

[Ghambit]

Mmmmk, I figured out who those loadout programs were.  They're called 'sirens.'
Google-Image these names and feast thine eyes:

-Serinda Swan
-Beau Garrett  (the lead siren)
-Yaya Dacosta
-Elizabeth Mathis

They should rename this flick Tron: Sexorrz.
Taken as a whole though, could there be more of a boner movie ever devised?  You're combining sensory overloading graphics in a gaming environment, complete with gladiatorial games, sick weapons, and femme fatale types who dress you and say how badass you are... whilst riding superbikes, hovertanks, and digi-gunships.  I will be very surprised if this game errr movie fails.  And uhhh, how can I move to this place?  Someone build me a fuckin molecular de/re-constructing laser!
