Tron Legacy is easily the film I've rewatched the most. Just love the visuals, one of the most memorable music soundtracks ever.
Was funny recognizing some locations from vacation trips in and around Vancouver.
I was hoping for a continuation for many years, especially regarding Quora and the ISOs.
Fingers crossed it will get addressed in a good way in Ares.
I'm split into positive and simultaneously negative feelings about the Ares movie.
Looking forward to the new visuals and what the story brings, being open minded about the new soundtrack, while hoping a certain lead actor (who I can't stand) as well the new characters and overall story doesn't kill the joy of it all.
In short: "Yay, but please don't f*ck up"

While I greatly enjoy Legacy now, my initial response was not good at all. It had nothing to do with the film, though; I was actually going through an extremely negative emotional period in my real life, and felt I was losing my mind. So focusing on anything besides that chaos was almost impossible. When the movie first came out, I wanted to see it because I liked the original as a kid, and I had seen the teaser in college. But my local theater only offered it in 3D, and I'm horribly nearsighted. Given no other option, I had to wear those ridiculous glasses over my existing ones, which just made the picture darker so I could barely see anything. Frustration from that and everything else just left a terrible impression for a long time, and I avoided re-watching for years. But then I think it was around 2013 or so that I found it as part of a Blu-Ray bundle with the original, and decided to give it another try. By that point, I was in a much more stable place emotionally, and not having to deal with the 3D effect meant I could enjoy the visuals along with the story. To this day, it remains one of my favorite sequels ever made, right up there with the likes of Terminator 2 or The Matrix Revolutions.
I had the soundtrack on iTunes and used to blast it in my house. Sorry mom and dad.
The De-Aging CGI is really gonna drive up the budget on this one.Speaking to Collider, Garrett Hedlund teases a potential future for Tron Legacy‘s Sam and Quorra in light of the new Tron: Ares movie.

I only just (as in less than an hour ago) stumbled upon word that there would even be a Tron 3.
And as monumental a disappointment as I found Tron: Legacy to be, compared to the original, Tron: Ares doesn't look (based on the Wikipedia article) like anything I'd even consider paying to see.

Tron: Legacy? Seriously? It doesn't even come close to what Wendy Carlos did with the original (the only way the original could have been improved, from a musical standpoint, would have been to eliminate the Journey songs, and restore Wendy's close music in its entirety).
Is that your Only Solution?
I love the OG Tron for what it was. While the FX don't hold up, I think that only adds to the charm.
I loved Legacy and its far superior sound track (IMHO, of course). I still love driving to it. My only disappointment was that there was no direct sequel to it.
I await Ares with cautious anticipation. Jared Ledo's track record in film is suspect at best, but I'll keep an open mind.

Pun my word.
I'd have also left Wendy's light cycles cue (which would be recycled -- no pun intended -- as the "Io" movement of her Moonscapes suite on the Digital Moonscapes album) in place.
Seriously. Wendy, though mostly retired now, is still the top classical synthesist, decades after Switched-On Bach, and her Tron score calls for analog synth, digital synth, orchestra, and organ (specifically, as I recall the Royal Festival Hall organ). Quite ambitious for its day.
Love the cue. Very glad it plays with only sound effects in the film.
Not even computer viruses either. Actual viruses.
Yep. I think his reputation alone is going to cause a lot of fret about the movie.I have so much love for both TRON and Legacy, and now have an equal amount of dread for this third one. Maybe it will be good! I've seen very little by the director, but I remember enjoying Bandidas at least? But Jared Leto...
Not sure how much more can be squeezed out of it, surely?
If the screencaps are anything to go by, it all looks too symmetrical and samey. Wasn't fond of TL's designs, either - same reason. While the original's costumes had flickering issues, but the designs hold up better in their intricacies and there's an easy way to write off the flicker as well: The real-life issue of transient voltage fits in perfectly. Amazed the original didn't cite a reason as everything about it, from what I recall, matched up to real life equivalence beautifully. Even keeping the temporal differential in mind as computers run at far faster speeds than humans... 1982 really had it goin' on.
I'll look up the article - maybe they're swapping the MCP in a mainframe for a bunch of itty bitty MCPs inside a server farm and they all party at the battery backup system where transient voltage is smoothed out by a series of voltage suppression diodes?
Which says a lot considering how good TL's soundtrack is. The original is far more breathtaking, especially for the time in which it was made. Wendy understood the movie and knew just what it needed. Wish it came out on 4K as well. (the filmmaking techniques are dated but are still impressive, and were monumental at the time.)
Part of Wendy's genius in scoring Tron was that she took the counterintuitive route of giving the "real world" scenes a more avant garde sound, and the "electronic realm" scenes a more convetional/Romantic sound.
This is the one good thing about new sequels, reboots, remakes, etc. We usually get a new master of the original for home media too. Rumor is it's coming; I really hope so.
