Ok so the are back together again, one big happy family
Does the new CEO know about this fansite, about Tron or the fact no sequal has been made in 20 years (ahem Tron 2.0)

Someone contact him!!!!!

Say he bud umm check out tron-sector and that umm petition!! i think we may have a money maker here... nice merger start eh abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

You guys are assuming that creativity and marketability go hand in hand. He may agree with you that Tron is the most wonderful thing that was ever created, but if they don't think it will make tons of money, you can bet that nothing will ever be done with Tron.

I don’t know how well the PSP UMD did upon it’s release, but at my Local Best Buy there are tons of them sitting unsold on the shelves.

I really doubt we could get the CEO to do anything. The most we could hope for is that he changes company attitudes.

Let's also step back and seriously look at what we're wishing for. We're wishing for a sequel that would be taken seriously and focus on ground breaking cutting edge technology in a setting that we have come to know and love.

Were Disney to do this, they would have to market it at someone who's going to see it.(who else is going to pay for the movie?) Who would that be? The 30-something computer geeks who love the original Tron? I doubt it. They'd market the "tweens" that have nothing else to do but go see a movie and shop. So in the end the film would star someone like Lindsay Lohan and have a pop soundtrack and things like the story and effects would take a back seat. Trust me, none of you would like a modern Disney-ized sequel. The Disney studio that gave us Tron to begin with is GONE.

And since when has Pixar done a bad film? As far as I know, all of the movies they've ever been involved in were awesome. The Incredibles, Toy Story 1 and 2, A Bug's Life, Monster's Inc., Finding Nemo, and I'm sure Cars is going to be good (at least it looks good).

If Pixar is involed in a sequel of any kind, it will have the most state-of-the-art graphics, and more than likely feature someone playing Jet , and hopefully Rebecca as Mercury again .

I really think this could happen. You never really know with Disney. Look at Kingdom Hearts lol.

May the Guardian watch over 's sequel.

If Johnny Depp, Kira Knightly and Orlando Bloom were in a Tron sequel I probably wouldn't go see it.

I suspect that a new film would be a remake. Not a sequel. Tron was not particularly popular when it was released and neither was the game. So to take a financial risk on a film that is dependent upon the viewers being familiar with a 20+ year old film that was unpopular, that would be an insane risk. For better or worse, a fully CG movie would not surprise me in the least, but a bend towards a pop atmosphere would. If the people who were formally running Pixar were involved I think it would be very unlikley that we would see that.

Besides, the soundtrack is dying. It has become overly bloated, budget wise. Studios are turning back to scores. Thank god.

I also don't actually think a film would need to focus on state of the art technology. The original film is still so far ahead of reality what would be the purpose? That was one of the things that bugged me about the game. They would make little nods about the digital world having progressed so much, yet it looked exactly the same. So did the programs. So did he technology. We get the bit that recognizers have been retrofitted to be tugs. Why? These things are not literal machines. They are analogies.

That said, I wouldn't go see a sequel with Johnny Depp, Kira Knightly and Orlando Bloom either.

You make my little comic book sad.

Thanks! I was happy to see the option for this one available. So many of those images take me way back.

Yuck.

Don't agree with that at all. You don't have to know the original film to enjoy a sequel, if it's done properly. There can be enough elements from the original to please the older crowd, while bringing enough new material to the table so that the newer generation isn't completely lost.

I'm pretty sure Terminator 2 would be a good example of that. I don't imagine that the majority of the audience who watched it, were hard-core Terminator fans. The original film was a bit obscure, but the sequel cemented its place in pop culture.

lurkinghorror Wrote: You make my little comic book sad.

I eagerly look forward to your comic book, but I have to be honest about something. I eagerly look forward to it because of the art clips which I have seen that make it look amazing and interesting. However the Tron 2.0 story didn't really do all that much for me. Who knows, maybe you'll expand on it and make it a lot more interesting. I am hoping so. I would be dissapointed though if, with regards to a film sequel, they decided to make one based on the game and not the original movie. That would be my beef.

I'm not disagreeing with that. In the hands of talented creators, the storytelling could be great. But my reasoning is not based on what might be good or bad, but what would look good on paper. By my experience, the likelihood that anyone would sign off on a Tron sequel at this point is very low. Not impossible, to be sure. But a remake is a much easier sell to the deep pockets of Hollywood.

Um... I remember Terminator being huge. I could be mistaken though. I was fairly young at the time. Even if not, there was a much smaller gap of time between the two films. And again, I'm not talking about creative execution and actual public appeal, but investor interest, which is it's own nebulous beast.

Boingo_Buzzard Wrote:However the Tron 2.0 story didn't really do all that much for me.

There was a story in the game?

In all honesty, the comic is as a much a sequel to the film as it is the game. If we did not expand upon it... Well... I don't know how anyone could hope to write a comic book based upon what little the game offerred in terms of story. In fact, the most interesting elements of story from the game come from the suggestions of what has happened between the events of the film and the present. Our intention is to take the elements from the game and bring it more in line with the film. At least, what the film was to me. I can't really write it as others see it.

You are kind. It will be interesting seeing fan reaction. I expect not everyone will like it. That's okay. But I am looking forward to discussing people takes on it. Both positive and negative. That's why I like this community. It's comprised of fun to talk to, reasonable people.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion
