Didn't see a thread for this yet, new trailer is out:
http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/disney/tronlegacy/

Interesting that it appears to be a direct sequel to the original, when the young movie-going public of today has never seen the original.

Regardless, the effects look absolutely astounding.

I saw a trailer for this before Alice in Wonderland. Looks good.

I have the original on videotape! Might have to subject my kids to it, set 'em up for the sequel.

I bet Tron Guy is gonna make a killing this year.

Coming out on Alyssa Milano's birthday this year? Sweetness.

I'm actually glad this isn't a remake. I will go see this simply for the fact that the people who greenlit this have some major brass balls and don't cave to Hollywood pressure.

I also dug the music for the trailer. A lot. Hoping it is representative of the actual score.

Yup, that's actually the first piece of the actual score released. Apparently, the entire score is written by Daft Punk, which is just another reason to be psyched about it.

Hmmm. Either the Wiki is wrong or I have been wrong all of these years. For the past 20 years I have walking around with the knowledge that her birthday was on the 17th. But, the teenie magazine "Bop" is probably more accurate than wikipedia, right?

I guess I was just stunned that you had that info (right or wrong) in your head, and wondered if there was some connection I wasn't aware of.

It's a disney movie that probably only appeals to arcade-going children of the 80s, and technologically makes no sense whatsoever.

I remember it fondly.

It's been well-known that Numbuk is a long-time Alyssa Milano stalker.

Yes, the nostalgia is STRONG with this one.

That's a confident legacy right there, yup.

Ya know, they made a great video game from this movie, too. There were some hardware issues - I never saw a machine that held up well - but it was a great game.

I have a feeling that none of you young whippersnappers remember it ...

From a facebook comments thread:

Quote:
Oh, I think TRON was more than simply fun -- it was a classic retelling of the myth of the hero in classical mythology, and a messiah in the gnostic Jewish tradition of late antiquity. That's why it resonated so powerfully. Gnostic ideas of the Demiurge (insane false god that thinks it is the true creator god) dovetail so well with notions of crazy power hungry former banking subsystem software establishing its power over its own limited virtual world and threatening to control even the physical world it emerged from.

Alyssa made my transition into puberty much, much nicer.

I really haven't had the same feelings for her since my mid teens. But she is still easy on the eyes.

She's a huge baseball, and even bigger Dodger, fan. That right there makes her a winner.

Very nice.

I think I may like Daft Punk. I enjoy a good electo song that isn't pure trance.

This movie is going to suck. That's my prediction.
