        I've never seen the first one, yes you heard me right. The only real exposure I got to it was in Kingdom Hearts II.

              That was awesome! I definitely want to see this movie now. Dunno rather to download it or have a friend burn it on DVD for me for $4.

                  Some friend. 4$? It should be 25 cents or FREE. Dvds cost around 20$ for 100.

                    I can hook you up with a good HQ ver.
                    Saw it last night and was AWED by the awesome SFX, story was pretty good too tho it did take me some time to figure it out.

                        Thread Revival for update.

                        I'm pretty sure everyone already saw the teaser for TRON Legacy.

                            I welcome any movie with Jeff Bridges in it.

                            It's an interesting set up, tho. Making a sequal to a 30 year old movie. A cult movie, yeah, but it's still a story which most of it's audience might not be that well acquainted with. So they need to continue the story in a way that it can still be enjoyed as a totally stand-alone movie but still keep it somewhat in line with the original movie.

                                                  So there is this thing called Arcade Aid and it is part of a bigger thing called Flynn Lives.

                                                    So you completed naming all 167 games in arcade aid? I wonder if I finish arcade aid now, I could get those things. I only got 93 named on Arcade Aid.

                                                        Just completed it yesterday too. I hope I get those arcade aid pins, especially the light cycle one.

                                                          I picked up the comic today, Tron: Betrayal.

                                                          Kinda neat to have all these prequels to Legacy.

                                                              For this triumph I received a poster in the mail of the Arcade Aid map.

Like you won't want to blast most of the songs but it's cohesive and there are some nice high points. A lot more orchestral than i'm used to from them but every once in awhile especially towards the end they bring you back to what you're used to from them and it sounds really good.

                                                                            I was expecting the 3D to be migraine inducing but it actually wasn't that bad.

                                                                            Daft Punk and all the shinies made for some excellent viewing. The plot was ok, and I think you get more out of it if you're familiar with the original movie. But it really wasn't bad for what it was.

                                                                            Needed a Bit joke though 😞

I only saw the first one about two months ago, so it was pretty fresh in my mind while watching this. Action was pretty damn cool. Was interesting seeing the interaction with Sam and his dad, especially after

                                                                                    ! Sam meets Clu, you can see how he acts a bit suspicious, even scared when he meets Kevin again Only part that bugged me a bit was
                                                                                    ! the somewhat obvious ending. In the theater my friends and I were taking bets on how Kevin would not go back to the real world. But aside from that this was really entertaining. Obviously better special effects, however 3D Kinda bugged me. Wasn't the kind that gave you a headache, but was the kind that it seemed…not enough. It was there, but it could have been placed in more action spots.

                                                                                        It is also a movie where you can still spot different things after multiple viewings.

                                                                                        ! I just want to talk about something that I don't see mentioned, the depth that doesn't need to be explained being overlooked.
                                                                                        ! An example is that I loved the whole Flynn/CLU thing and how CLU shows Flynn's development. When Flyyn created CLU, he was always rush forward to perfection and just wanted to accomplish which is shown by Clu being impatient for the next move and no room for change. In the movie we get to see Flynn's development because we see how different he is from CLU. Now he is someone who is patient and just more in-tune. There is a lot more I can get into on this one thing alone as well.
                                                                                        ! Am I just looking into this too much?

                                                                                          Also, I didn't notice that about the two. No, you're not looking too much into it because it's all too true.

                                                                                                ! Plot holes and poor exposition really took me out of the movie - and Martin Sheen. shudder Martin Sheen was SO campy and SO over the top as Zeus that it really made it hard to take the movie seriously after that. And the thing that really hooked me about the original - the creativity and wonder of the possibilities of the future in a time when it was still very far away - just wasn't here.
                                                                                                ! I saw it with my production company, so it was really difficult not to tick off the cliches as we predicted them: as Flynn was sitting on the couch explaining (poorly) Isomorphic Algorithms I knew right there and then: "Welp, Quorra is one of 'em. And I bet you she's the last of her kind. And she is naive in the ways of the world." "Tron isn't dead - wait, bet you that guy's Tron." "Bet you they're going to have a sci-fi club scene like every sci-fi movie in existence." "There's NO way Flynn isn't going to die in this movie." "The sashaying seductive chick is going to betray him before long, die for it, derp"…well before any plot development could come full circle.
                                                                                                ! The movie honestly felt a little like the Fifth Element or any of a bajillion other sci-fi films where the object is to take the special last of her kind AI heroine out into the real world - like the Tron name was just a backdrop and not so much the heart of the film. The concepts and theories that were supposed to be the crux of the story really could have gotten better exposition - like the whole concept of ISOs. It's sort of, like, because we've seen sentient life ex nihilo in other forms of media tons of times by now, they don't feel the need to take the time to explain why it's such a big deal for the TRON world. If perhaps it was explained WHAT the ISOs could do for the real world, I would have formed a deeper connection the the ideas. There isn't enough setup for anything. Or reason for much: so Flynn effortlessly making a copy of himself is all well and good, but if he recombines with that copy it'll kill him? What? What?

The only one I formed any connection with was Flynn, who was obviously the best part of the film. He's this sort of mystic techno figure here (replete with Jedi hood), but you know he's still Flynn from the first movie when he drops terms like "it's like cosmic jazz, man" in the middle of a speech about algorithms and sentience.
                                                                                                ! But that was it. The titular character, Tron, was done no justice. None. At all.

Clu needed Flynn's Identity Disc in order to Mass warp the army and his Rectifier ship and as a key to use to get out for his army and use it as a reverse laser digitalizer (remember when it was plugged in? Yeah, it looked like the laser machine) to get out. The portal|I/O Tower (It's obviously the I/O Tower) was also kept far away so that no single program can get out when it was open. Also, it was explained that the portal uses a lot of energy in order to be open and so it has a time limit.

                                                                                                        I'd pretty much insist that anyone who was going to watch Legacy watches the first one shortly before since it does help with a lot of character and story growth.

                                                                                                        Did like how the plot didnt fuck around just got straight into it. Also liked how Sam knew exactly where he was when it happened instead of all of the "oh man, no, what is this?" "this cant be happening" stuff you usually get in this kind of thing.

                                                                                                        Definitely not as bad as the reviews are making out.
