ShadowDragon1 Wrote: That still makes little sense IMO. The Blue Program said "what are you doing? You won OK! It's just a GAME! "

I didn't hear it that way, the first sentence was muted out of the sequence from the leaked trailer, but clearly the blue program did say, in panic, despondency and disgust, or in cowardice disbelief and confusion, "it's just a game?" exactly. Not "What are you doing? You won OK! It's just a game!"

I'm not claiming I'm 100% right, since there's no other proof, but the thought of a Tron movie with grown men on lightcycles wondering if it's just a game is VERY off. I'd put money on it. if I'm wrong, that's ok too. If you guys want to make the blue guy out to be a cry baby.. I for one wouldn't.

hm.. I know you saw it live. I just don't believe it was written so subtly. I don't mean it in a bad way, it's just that I had to draw parallels with the action sequence. That changes my opinion to address that they're using some original stuff, which I didn't think was the case until now..

A friend was discussing this with me, and stated that the bad guys on LCs in Tron were red in blue LCs, and since I've mis-placed my DVD, I didn't have baselines to assist in my opinion. Now I know ppl here know this and may have stated that the programs are taking on their own kind, prescriptive by the MCP in one instance, in several arenas the bad guys were blue, clearly the evidence describes what's happening may be entirely unique to what level of the game they're in, or who or what designed them, going back to original designs. Such as green/blue=bad. Very interesting.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pillabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

ShadowDragon1 Wroterumming up hype and expectations for a film to be made (if it's just an idea being on a big "maybe" status) is a bit manipulative, deceptive or possibly fecicious I think.

Well, manipulative and deceptive are just two different words for marketing. That said, I'm sure whatever branch of the company showed the test reel had only the best intentions. I'm just saying that showing a test reel isn't synonymous with a green light or official pre-production. It's not a promise of a film, no matter how people react to it. Even an official announcement with a release date isn't a promise of a film. If it were, we'd have had a couple of sequels already.

Anyway, as I said earlier, this is the closest we've been. So things look promising. It's important to note that Disney has not abandoned Tron. Time after time, sequel news pops up. Everyone I have ever met within the company is very positive on Tron and wishes to see a future for the license.

Maybe it's like in , where colors don't seem to matter. Like integration in the Tron Universe.

Dr. King will be happy.

Not really news, per se. But I found an article where an "outsider" who's never seen Tron before, up until this point, tries to get into it and understand what all the fuss is about. Now that a sequel is in the works.

It's a reasonable assessment, I guess. He doesn't trash it, but doesn't get it either. At least he's interested. And he recognizes that the Matrix didn't really do much that Tron hadn't already done almost 20 years earlier. Conceptually, at least.

Hmm, this ThePlanetSaturn who left a few comments . . . don't I know him?

Curse your superior detective skillz!

I guess you had to be there watching it, in 1982, to really appreciate its impact. Hell, 1982 was an amazing year for great films. Period.

I was born in 1990 and I appreciate its impact. I think you have to remind the kiddies who think Tron is not significant that if John Lasseter didn't see Tron, then there would be no PIXAR or Toy Story; and we probably had to wait 5 more years to make the world's first CGI feature film.

That was an interesting read. He didn't care for it all that much, but didn't hate it, and yet he explained how he felt about the film pretty intelligently. I think, for the most part, you really did need to be around in 1982 to really get what TRON was and the kind of impact it had on us. I can only ever see it through the eyes and mind of my 11 year old self - remembering a time when none of that stuff existed... until TRON. People who've grown up on the offspring of TRON and all that it was, can never truly understand how profound an impact the film made, from concept, to visualizations.

Hmm, this ThePlanetSaturn who left a few comments . . . don't I know him?

I rather enjoyed the comments as well. My detective skills... er, skillz aren't as good though. I didn't realize who ThePlanetSaturn was until following through with this thread.

Thanks for lurking there for us, ThePlanetSaturn. Excellent comment input and very well put. The author of this article can never truly understand what we all experienced, having been there when TRON hit the theaters in '82, but I think you expanded his horizons (on the subject) just a little.

I recall someone saying somewhere in the forum, maybe in TR2N plot twists thread that they think the blue guy on the grid may have come out of a holding cell.

To me, the imagery is reminiscent a WWII weapons storage bunkers.

Why would you be worried about playing Tron 2.0 online??? I've put over 5000 hours of gameplay in multiplayer mode, and singleplayer 4 times through.

xalener Wrote: Jademz Wrote: The hardware is quicker, and more efficient. But I dare say, they would have a different interpretation visually than they show in the TR2N trailer. The programs of today would look like The Transformers compared to what was in that convention, with little Tron ppl running the show. So there. it's weak and lazy line Tron. Do you really want transformer programs? There is a point at which you've gotta ditch technilogical....logic, and just make stuff look cool... This looked cool.

Xalener & Jadem:

I see both your points, however:
A)While the eye-catching factor is important to some extent, looking cool should not be done at the expense of logic and reason when it comes to design and justification for why something is used in a film or story or for why something looks the way it does in a film or story. While the TR2N "trailer" (which was most likely more of a demo reel that Kosinski used to get the job with Disney) looked cool, there was some things that I still don't agree with, i.e., the simplified look of the program's suits, the look of the disc, the holographic look of the program's faces. To me, I hope the suits look similar to the ones used in Tron 2.0 (from pics I've seen; until I get a non-Vista computer, then I'll play Tron 2.0, as I've heard that Vista causes tons of headaches, especially with the Vista version of MS Office; I HATE Vista);
B)While I like Transformers, and am a die-hard fan (moreso of G-1)I would not want to see the programs in TR2N looking like them. Why? Because, I wouldn't see the justification. Then again, what do I know? (LOL!!)
