Artie Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 OH GOD! that was pretty freaking cool Link to comment
LeadingMan Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 This movie gives me such an incredible nerd hard-on. Also, a repeating cut of what's supposedly the title theme by Daft punk was played at the ARG's live event in San Diego. Link to comment
Cip Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Its going to be insane. I'm most excited at the fact that Daft Punk is scheduled to score the film, what's more suiting? Link to comment
LeadingMan Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Yeah, I'm already a fan of that track. It's got the Daft Punk sound, but it's nice and dark/moody. I have a good good feeling about it. Link to comment

Ikari Warrior Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 It looks cool, but I'm concerned with this iPod sheen that all movies seem to have today. This movie seriously looks like it could be swapped out with Star Trek, and no one would know the difference. Part of what made the original tron so great was the fact that the graphics were noticably worse. I wonder how they're going to do it, if it's going to be a period piece or what, because the Internet is going to be hard to translate into the Tron Universe. That being said, it looks good, and I intend to see it. Link to comment
J-Stop Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Like 2Fast 2Furious!! That ship has sailed. To get with the times they would have to leave out letters to let people know it's obviously a sequel. TR: N. But the movie has been renamed to TRON Legacy now. Link to comment
LeadingMan Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 because the Internet is going to be hard to translate into the Tron Universe. The Internet has already been in the Tron universe in Tron 2.0 and was pretty awesome. Additionally the "ipod sheen" is probably just going to be a result of computers getting faster. In Tron 2.0 when they went back to an old computer from 1982 the visuals looked identical to the original, considering there's been a huge increase in power since even that game came out, the visual upgrade again makes sense. I mean we're in the age of multiple terrabyte PCs and gpus with a gig of ram on them, compared to even 6 years ago when that game was released. I wouldn't be shocked at all if the inside of what would beconsidered a supercomputer nowadays is like a nonstop CGI party. Link to comment

Yes, I am so fucking pumped, I mean come on what movie do a bunch of 20 something year olds want to see? a new tron god damnit! Link to comment
Ikari Warrior Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Additionally the "ipod sheen" is probably just going to be a result of computers getting faster. I admit, the 80s aesthetic would look anachronistic in this day and age (the future of the past for the lulz). My complaint about the aesthetic is really nitpicking, I admit. The thought that every movie set in a futuristic/sci-fi could look basically the same for the next 10 or so years just saddens me...sign of the times I guess. The 90s had their Independence Day/Star Gate aesthetic, so I guess it's only fair that the "00s" moves on with something else. Link to comment
LeadingMan Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Well, the reason I mentioned all that earlier is that Tron 2.0 was written as a potential script for the movie. When no one optioned it, it was turned into a game to try to judge the amount of interest in the Tron series. Although it didn't make much money it did start a lot of buzz about Tron, and it was enough to get em to greenlight the movie, which very well may use a similar script. Although this time it seems instead of Jet, it's Flynn's son Sam. And coincidentally the film is named Tron Legacy which was the name of the code Jet had to compile in the game and he had to break onto an old mainframe from the 1980s in order to retrieve it. (Of course the system melts down since he has to overclock it to get his OS buddy Ma3a on there...) But yeah, I wouldn't be shocked if they're using the same script as a source and they have to go back into the mainframe from the 80s, which would mean old school graphics too. Link to comment
ROCKSTEADY Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 some of those scenes look real cyber punk like. but if daft punk has anything to do with the music it will probably wont be oh yeah, also disney...... im sure it will be ok though. Link to comment

Um i am not sure what world you live in but Disney produced and made the original Tron so the fact that they are in charge of this reboot as well is no surprise seeing as they where the original propitors or the Tron IP Link to comment
ROCKSTEADY Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 i know, i just wish someone else would do it considering disney's track record with this sort of thing. Link to comment
Elitist Indie Hipster Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 i know, i just wish someone else would do it considering disney's track record with this sort of thing. I dont understand what you mean. Disney did the first one and it was good. There is nothing saying this one wont be just as good. Link to comment
punroc1 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 i know, i just wish someone else would do it considering disney's track record with this sort of thing. Personally i don't think anyone but Disney could do this. And hello they did pirates of the fucking Caribbean and they did a great job with all three of them. that bullshit that the first was the only good one is bull. Link to comment
