Opening on December 17, TRON: Legacy is the sequel to Disney's 1982 film TRON in which Jeff Bridges plays computer programmer Kevin Flynn (and his program, Clu), Bruce Boxleitner plays Flynn's friend Alan Bradley (and his program, the titual Tron) and David Warner plays all three villains.

In the new film, Flynn's son Sam sets out to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance 20 years ago, when he was on the verge of developing a revolutionary new vision of digital something-or-other which would change the way humans live. Along the way we'll have more lightcycles and that game with the discs and most importantly:

    This is one of those things that nostalgia actually holds up against. It is such a great movie.

    Tron 2.0 was a pretty Killer game.

    I enjoyed the first movie too.

    Hoping to enjoy this stuff, the aesthetic is great.

    the lighting is kind of wishy washy

    I had that movie, it was Commando. This boy just loves using buzzsaws as shuriken.

    you had better taste.

    I don't know if the 3D will be worth the extra money as it usually makes colors less vivid and Tron is all about the vivid colors.

    Is this one shot/rendered in 3d or is it converted after the fact? Because only the former would be worth it.

    Can't wait to see this. Used to watch the original all the time when I was a kid. Every time my best friend and I rented movies we would get Tron. His sister would get Annie. Seriously. Annie.

    Also I got my ticket for next week's 20-minute preview.

    Also I'm going to Disney World next month so I'm excited to see what (if anything) they have up for Tron Legacy.

    Even if the movie itself is terrible at least we're getting a new Daft Punk album out of it and if anything I'll consider it "Interstella 5555" 2.0. In other words, a feature length music video.

    I saw Tron when I was really young I think.

    Tried to rewatch it a few years ago, but it was pretty boring.

    I think it'll be alright. I mean, I'm expecting the story/dialogue to be as cheesy as any action movie has ever been. But, visually, this looks really cool. The visuals might get stale after 90 minutes though.

    I only saw Tron for the first time last year when I bought the DVD in preparation for Legacy.

    The film itself isn't too bad, but I certainly did fall asleep during the making of documentary.
