I was actually disappointed by Tron: Legacy, I saw it more as a cash-in then anything else. It really annoyed me that, beyond updating the graphics, they didn't really try to upgrade the universe at all, besides the whole 'creating life' nonsense. I really liked all the old references to computer concepts in the old Tron, but the new one completely ignores that. You could've completely modernized the concept and related it to the new technology we've developed in the past two decades since the original, but instead we just got a rehash of the first one for nostagia purposes. I guess I was just expecting something a bit deeper, not a hollow action movie with Uncanny Valley Jeff Bridges.
So bring it on, you scumbag avatars, your movie sucks.

I loved the original movie. In fact, I have the 20th Anniversary Edition DVD. But it seemed to me that the movie plot was a rehash of the game released in the 2000s. Only with Jeff Bridges' son having to go into the computer rather than Alan's son (as in the game), and so I was more resistant to seeing it. I may see it for the spectacle, but I am not considering it to have the greatest plot.
As the MCP would say... END OF LINE.

Nice.
Tron is a failure, just like the 80's even though brought in millions, video games that brought in more millions and spawned Dreamworks and Pixar with the talent that worked that movie.
Hell Disney had more failure like Tron, they'd never go broke.
The movie was good for what it was. Now the console games... no threats could ever make me give that thing praise...

it was a great movie. GTEAT music, a fun story, good acting, strong action and visuals! what more do you need?
The movie failed because it was segregated from the computer world. There has been 30 years of growth in both the industry, infrastructure, and general acceptance and understanding of computers.
The tanks were actual game tanks, the "people" were all programs running on the Encom mainframe and related systems.
They took the visuals from the first movie but none of the exploration and sense of wonder that made it meaningful.
Also no MCP gives me a sad.

Its definitely a terrific soundtrack and some great visuals, but I doubt these get recognized by the Academy. You know how they hate giving awards to those eeeeevil genre films. I'm sure it will be nominated but I'd say the prize goes to Inception.
Oh right, OT; Hilarious comic as always, thank the users I enjoyed the film.

More accurate comic: replace "io7" with "Gawker", replace "Kotaku" with "Gawker" and replace "Tron: Legacy" with "Anonymous". Pretty much the same punchline.
