Discussion of all things TRON here. Easily one of the most stylistic and visually impressive sci-fi franchises out there, the TRON brand has hit everything from games to comics since the release of the original 1982 film. The first movie wasn't much of a success at first, but it quickly gained a cult following which persists to this day. The sequel, TRON: Legacy, was finally put into production and hit theaters at the end of 2010, and likewise puts most of its emphasis on visuals but tries to include something resembling a religion-themed plot, a plot doesn't really make sense when taken a moment to reflect on. Here's a mashup of footage from TRON and music from the TRON Legacy movie with a few quotes added in for good measure. Anytime you don't see the character who is speaking at this video, it's a quote from the newer movie, the trailer to which is posted below: At one point, quickly after Disney bought marvel, variant covers of Marvel's heroes in TRON versions of their costumes began to surface. You can find most of it through a google search, and it's pretty impressive stuff. http://fangfoundthis.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/TronMarvel.jpg Discuss. Edited by NWV, Apr 1 2012, 11:15 PM.

I've seen the '82 Tron film. Visually, it's stunning. The Blu Ray for this movie and Tron Legacy must look truly marvelous. I found the '82 film's plot a little boring. It was like being inside a video game while watching the cast members as they were inside the computer and on the "grid". More than anything I believe Tron(1982) is an acquired taste...and one I'm still on the fence about overall. |

Yeah, no doubt a lot of the original Tron would have been more interesting if they'd had a soundtrack. But there's no score that I can remember, not even in the few real world scenes of the movie. |
