That may be true, but, it wasn't put in where people expected it.

I was somewhat disappointed by the transition sequence (not on my initial viewing, of course; at that point in time the effect blew me away!). It was a cool effect specifically designed for 3D, which I found disappointing upon watching it at home (in 2-D).

Though I do have to say, I freaking LOVED the end credits sequence. That part just blew my mind.where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

Kat Wrote:I really don't understand the big deal about this. It wasn't used because of exposition. The whole point is that Sam had no idea what happened until he ran out the door of the arcade and onto the street, and we weren't supposed to either. If they'd done a long, drawn-out sequence, then that would've been lost because we would've known exactly what was going on. Besides--and I've pointed this out before-- the "down the wormhole" thing has been done a billion times, from Original Tron to Bill & Ted to various dumb TV shows I can think of, etc. Unless the T:L folks made it very, very unlike everything we've seen before along this vein, it would've been tired and stupid, and then we would've been complaining about THAT. I'd rather have it be a mystery than the same bloody thing AGAIN.

DrP Wrote:This piece of the movie is often talked about for good reason. I think fans of the original mostly liked that transition and were "expecting" something similar in the squeal. At the same time, I do not think it would have fit into the plot of T:L as Sam did not realize that he was somewhere else until on the street with the recognizer. A 40 second transition scene would have completely blown this surprise. Also, for people who have never seen the original tron, it must have been a much better "surprise" as they would not have fully realized the transition until he was out on the street as well.

Agree with the above two. They also made an analogue of Flynn's arcade on the Grid to sell Sam's subtle confusion. The experience of digitization shown in T:L seems to be accurate to what Sam must have perceived when he was sent to the Grid. I like that they tried to do it a different way than in the original.

A real world to digital transition for the current population of ADD afflicted could have been, seeing from Sam's point of view, the inside of the hidden room rezzing from a low resolution abstract wire cad type illustration transitioning the final higher resolution. This could have taken a only about 3-5 seconds.

Then cut to Sam sitting in the chair with a WTF look on his face, running from the room, then cut to him running out the front door.

That would imply the Grid was being loaded into memory instead of Sam being loaded into it. Considering Sam would be "frozen" for the entire scan (like Flynn was in the first), he would barely be able to perceive his own transport process.

The whole point is you would not be able to experience Sam's jolt if it took any longer than a blink to happen. Sam would be surprised, you wouldn't.

I still think showing any more than they did would have been a gratuitous (and expensive) fan service, and not much more.

The absence of it where it belonged is a shame. Who cares about other movies, done to death, ADD, etc. It's how it happens in Tron. Guess Tron canon isn't appreciated by anyone here. Pretty sad. Just remember why Tron: Legacy even exists.

Many people who hadn't seen the original had no clue what happened there in T:L. I had to explain it to some.

Every other movie has a cop chase scene, yet it's there in T:L with no problem and nobody complaining. A wormhole is only as cheesy and overdone as you make it. Kosinski and team could've crafted an awesome one. I'd gladly give up a few of the verbal references in T:L to Tron to have a 3-D wormhole transition. I'd also gladly give up some or the slow exposition explaining Clu's rise for it. Star Wars has its yellow scrolling text at the start of six movies. Why can't Tron have its canonical traditions?

Execs wanted to cut Dorothy singing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' from Wizard of Oz because it was too slow. Execs often don't know what is best.

Reading posts here ever since T:L was announced makes me feel like I could make a movie about baking cookies and all I'd need to do is put circuitry stripes on the cook, the oven door and kitchen utensils to slap the Tron name on it. And everyone would think it's wonderfully Tron; evolved ever so eloquently. A perfect sequel to a dated and trite movie. I'm glad you all like Tron and its foundational principles so much.

I agree with this %100. I waited 28 years for an update of the laser digitizing and wormhole scenes. The Flying 3-D cubes was "ok" but disappointing IMO. "Tron 3" MUST include the full sequence IMO.
