Personally, I think Disney might want to try and make a Tron franchise work even if that means a hail mary pass on a 3rd film. Why? Because Tron fills in a big gap in the Disney portfolio: a respectable science fiction franchise. They've got cartoons, family fantasy, adult fantasy (Pirates) and adventure, such well in hand. Plus a stable of action, drama, and adventure properties via the Pixar connection. But Disney doesn't have anything "cool" for a high tech, contemporary world and those sci-fi fanboys. Remember, they're even rebooting The Black Hole - with Tron Legacy's team at the helm.
Tron Legacy has turned out to be a very respectable and very cool science fiction feature and despite criticisms over plot, it is showing signs of attachment to its intended audience for its visceral elements, characters, and cast. If it does a just a bit better, it'll be the hottest strike Disney's ever had in this arena.where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

Exactly, what Quicksort said, the Sony F-35 Fusion camera with the Cameron/Pace 3D system. It was the next generation of the cameras that were used on Avatar, so it was an even more advanced model. I also read somewhere they used a Scorpio head which, if I recall correctly, allowed them to take some fantastic overhead shots and allowed for some unreal camera angles. It was the first time these technologies were used together at the same time, so TRON: Legacy did have some cinematic firsts, much like the original. where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Thanks. Sounds interesting.
I think it's really important for the film to hit $100m domestic by the end of the weekend. That way a gross in the high hundreds is likely, and even (whisper it) $200m.
That way it's financially viable to make a third film instead of just relying on ancillary stuff (TV, merchandising) to keep Tron in the public eye.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Yeah Torn legacy was done in 3d. In certain scene they used the 3d effect where they needed to in the film. Especially in the animation where it really counted with the reco, light cycles, etc. Where they had actors within the 3d worl where it wa also needed. I was switching back and fourth with my 3d glasses to see where they had used it for certain scenes.
Being a tron fanatic like everyone here.I think that sometime but not all the times. the critics are not always like what the movie is all about or just don't understand. I remember when Star wars came out in 1977-79 and they said that start wars would not work out. And look at ti today. I think that the fans will decide on this. ANd I think here that the fans here at tronsector like it. And of course what was mentioned in another post about the changes. about it that we could have done to it as well.

Do you see $100m by the 27th being likely? It'd need to gross another $44m, which seems like quite an achievement, considering Fockers will be playing as well.where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Would be nice. If it doesn't, I hope Disney realizes they don't need to make a $200M+ Tron movie to keep the fans at ease, the franchise alive and be profitable. I think many Tron geeks would've been satisfied with a $25-$50 million Tron movie that looks more like the old style. Or heck, a $1 million version. Disney went all out with T:L. Obviously, nobody would complain about that. What a ride. But I hope they didn't put all their eggs in one basket... where if it doesn't succeed, that's the last we hear of Tron for another 30 years.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Yeah, would be nice. With the way the B.O. seems to be down relative to past years, I just thought that $200m would make a decent ROI for Disney. Jay seems to be the only guy who is out and out positive about the numbers so far. All the other journos I've read were saying that Disney was hoping for a higher weekend. (Realistic or not, a $170m-300m project with a two-year marketing push does have a certain expectation.)
@Quicksort: Probably not, especially with Christmas falling on a Friday, which will hit everyone's weekend numbers. It'll be interesting to see what next week's numbers are like, as they should be generally bigger than normal.
Early word is that Fockers opened with $7m (which is low), with True Grit and Tron tying at $5.5m. So that's $61.5m in five days.
So assume it goes like this (or not):
Another $5.5m Thursday
$6m Friday
$9m Saturday
$9m Sunday
$30.5m + $61.5m = $92mwhere to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

That's about what I am expecting for this weekend as well.
$92M by Monday would be terrific numbers, considering the movie will be having an extended run in IMAX and will almost certainly remain in theaters nationwide through January. Things will be a trickly by February, but then when the weekly take is only measured in hundreds of thousands, not millions, it still adds up; especially when the foreign box office is factored in.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion |

I understand the importance of the BO numbers, but what about DVD/ blu/digital numbers? I thought I had read that studios make more money from those sales than BO. Surely that will play a part in another sequel getting a green light?

That's a very, very good question.
Here is a site that has some dollar amounts:
http://www.the-numbers.com/dvd/charts/annual/2010.php
If this site is accurate, TRON Legacy stands to do well because most of the top earners for 2010 have been science fiction or fantasy. I can see TRON Legacy getting at least $50 million in DVD sales for 2011. Maybe more? Lots of people never see a movie in the theater anymore, instead preferring to buy it on DVD or rent it from Netflix. Overall, I think the visual spectacle of TRON Legacy will make it one of the top 5 DVD sales for 2011,
More interesting still, will Disney continue to sit on a re-re-release of the original TRON movie in DVD, or will it be put back into production in order to take advantage of the renewed public interest as a result of TRON Legacy? Or will Disney effectively "age off" the original movie and focus purely on the 21st century part of the franchise? |

I think the DVD sales are more necessary for Disney to keep going with all the other Tron stuff. If the film underperforms worldwide, but all the other stuff has strong sales, then Disney knows what to expect with Tron. Not something they can justify a third film with, but the TV shows and merchandise can keep going.
Edit:

Good point, Kidflash. Lower than desired box office take but robust DVD sales would indeed point to a "smaller" franchise, with no big screen sequels but perhaps the pursuit of a successful television series, along the lines of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Still holding strong amongst new releases -- via Exhibitor Relations: Universal's threequel LITTLE FOCKERS was a the #1 flick on Wednesday grossing an estimated $7 million. TRON: LEGACY and TRUE GRIT were a close second, each totaling $5.5 million.

I saw this too:
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/fockers-tops-wednesday-box-office-65320
TRON Legacy appears to have edged True Grit for Wednesday, but just by a nose.
Fockers meanwhile debuted soft, and it will need BIG numbers to come close to TRON's opening weekend -- which Fockers may not be able to do because not a lot of Americans will be out seeing movies on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. It's probably too early to say for sure, but Universal might end up taking a bath with Fockers.
These numbers continue to encourage me, for TRON's overall prognosis.
I wonder what the international revenue will be up to by Monday?
If it's as least as good as before, say another $22 million, then TL's total world-wide take could be well over $100 million by this time next week. If Legacy improves overseas, it will be more like $110 or even $120 million world-wide, with the entire month of January to go.

As as creative marketing student I love to follow movies that I really like and see how word of mouth spreads during box office. Here are some of my observations:
While it didn't get the same love from critics as inception; Tron legacy seems to be doing really well when it comes to the social media aspect. Meaning good word is spreading on twitter and facebook. That good word of mouth helped Inception have long legs, and I believe we will see the same effect on Tron Legacy. I think some people were a little put of because of some of the negative reviews, or by not knowing too much about Tron. The word of mouth though is really helping it gain some steam.
Just search on twitter, and you will see that the majority of people thought the movie was great. Not just good, but great. Yea there are some that didn't like it, but those that did make it known.
Let me know what you guys think.
