Saw this earlier and nearly jumped out of my seat in anticipation.

lafors · 28-07-2008 3:10am

So Jeff Bridges is back!
I've read that sark is supposed to be back and figures out how to get out of the program.
I'd say it'll look pretty impressive

Like the TR2N name

That will be awesome in 3d. Most awesome.

JJ · 09-03-2010 6:41am

The first proper trailer is now online:

http://www.program-glitch-esc.net

The special effects are looking good and Olivia Wilde is looking mighty fine. I don't think it gives too much away like most trailers.

I'm really looking forward to this. I bought the DVD of the first one because I barely remember seeing it in the cinema when it first came out. Most people might cringe at the special effects in the first film but I think it's pretty amazing what they achieved considering the tools they had at that time.

Skerries · 09-03-2010 9:03am

December! wants now!

pixelburp · 09-03-2010 11:11am

Bruce Boxleiter! How are things in the Shadow War these days?

I have to admit, that trailer actually looks quite good. The visuals are certainly something, and although "darker" than the original movie's, really look a treat. Am suddenly quite eager about seeing this.

I also suspect that music was a taster of Daft Punk's soundtrack.

JJ · 09-03-2010 12:03pm

That's Oscar-winning Dude now. :cool: :P

novarock · 09-03-2010 12:08pm

Awesome - So frickin Awesome...

Duggy747 · 09-03-2010 5:47pm

See-lick!!

Big changes over the test footage alright. Ha, this could possibly be my next 3D film, exactly a year after Avatar :pac:

The Dude + Daft Punk + Neons = My ass in a cinema seat!

Darragh · 09-03-2010 5:51pm

Trailer now on YouTube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wxjtr5dfl3Q

TRON: LEGACY is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that's unlike anything ever captured on the big screen.

Sam Flynn (GARRETT HEDLUND), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (JEFF BRIDGES), looks into his fathers disappearance and finds himself pulled into the digital world of Tron where his father has been living for 25 years.

Along with Kevin's loyal confidant Qora (OLIVIA WILDE), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey of escape across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.

Directed by Joseph Kosinski. Cast includes Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Bruce Boxleitner, James Frain, Beau Garrett and Michael Sheen.

TRON: LEGACY comes to Irish cinemas in December.

Hard to know whether it will be as epic as the first...

johnny_ultimate · 09-03-2010 6:03pm

Trailer looks surprisingly fantastic. Of course it is hard to judge from the trailer, but the tone and design suggests a very different kind of vibe from your usual blockbuster. Tron is cheesy fun, but I think this has the possibility to be something more than that. I already think it looks far more interesting and ambitious visually than a certain other blue-tinged CGI epic....

Plus Daft Punk soundtrack = win.

Anakin.S · 09-03-2010 9:05pm

looks good, can't wait for the motor bikes. Disk battle looks good too.

Richard Dower · 10-03-2010 1:16am

Visually, it looks great...definate potential for a hit with this movie, it just depends if the script has something to it. CGI candy is great, but nothing without a proper story (looking at you Avatar).

???? how dare you! they are light cycles!!;)

neilthefunkeone · 10-03-2010 1:55am

Holy Sh1t.. did i just spot David Bowie in that trailer..

Looks good.. Is taking it time though.. Think i saw trailers of this well over a year ago.. COME ON!!!!!!!!!

Richard Dower · 10-03-2010 2:36am

A big leap forward from the test footage, it has textures and blinged out now.

TheIrishGrover · 10-03-2010 9:42am

Yeah, it's the Windows 7 Aero version of Tron. Must say though, I thought it looked AWESOME. Loved the lightcycles and that bit where the young badass Jeff Bridges comes up out of the floor was just fantastic.
Can't
Freakin
Wait.

Yeah, I thought I saw him too. Had a look on imdb and there's nothing about him appearing in Tron unfortunately. Will still hold out hope that it's him until I hear otherwise!

skelliser · 11-03-2010 1:26am

think its actually michael sheen who plays the guy who looks like bowie/ziggy stardust.

nyarlothothep · 11-03-2010 10:53pm

not as visually good as the original, its too clean and perfect, it doesn't have the iconic fx appeal of Tron.

expectationlost · 12-03-2010 3:39am

this looks like just an update of the old tron better graphics etc, rather then looking into the future..

there should have tronosised future thinking from now, quantum computing or something

seraphimvc · 05-04-2010 11:04pm

just saw the new proper trailer ,CANT WAIT!!!!!

as a an early 20s young kids i sure missed out the good old tron (from what i heard anyway), this new one looks sharp and promising alright!

DECEMBER!!!

seraphimvc · 18-07-2010 12:21am

gonna dig this up since i really cant wait for this after i watched Inception

the concept behind them sure has similarity and i really cant help but keep wondering will this turn out as good as Inception?!!

They are indeed my most anticapted films this year!!!

qwertplaywert · 18-07-2010 12:49am

Feel slightly embarrassed that the most exciting thing about this movie for me is Bruce Boxleitner

DingDong · 18-07-2010 1:41am

Make sure to order your own Tron bike Link

18-07-2010 9:08am

Can anyone confirm this? I was reading in some movie magazine a few months back, and they said that Tron Legacy was going to be shot in 3D, using technology similar to Avatar but improving on it - only that just the scenes within the computer world will be in 3D, everything outside will be normal?

If this is going to be the case, consider me wowed.

Cantona's Collars · 18-07-2010 7:30pm

Here's some pretty cool new images from the movie.

Yeah, that's the story apparently. Not sure if there's going to be much improvement on the 3D but the 3D/2D thing is true. And, yeah, qwerty, can't wait for Bruce Boxleitner

Anybody get an Encom postcard? I got one a couple of weeks ago advertising Arc Wars

Well retro cool.

constitutionus · 19-07-2010 11:29am

seen the trailer for this before inception and im pretty sure it said 3d too.

gotta say im really looking forward to this one. only shame is its fecking december before its due.

i can understand someone thinking that its a shame they didnt try to break new ground on the games i.e them looking like updates of the originals.

but then again if they did that would it still be tron ?

personally i think they did a good job polishing up what nowadays would be considered VERY basic imagary. i love all the little heat/ energy distortion effects to emote motion/power and the splashy light is really cool.

speaking of which its great to see boxieletner in this. i dont know what the extent of his role will be but its such a nice nod of the head and the scenes we see of him in the trailer have a nice emotional punch to em.

damn this is gonna be a long wait

pixelburp · 23-07-2010 9:09am

There's a new trailer out for this. It came out during Comic Con & ooh boy, it looks fantastic.
The de-aging of jeff Bridges is something else, it's really amazing stuff.

http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/tron-legacy.html?showVideo=1#movTitle

Bruce Boxleitner rules!

filmfan · 23-07-2010 9:18am

Just posted it up, looks really good, have to say I've never seen the first one though, for shame!

Skerries · 23-07-2010 10:11am

go watch it now!, but you will have to factor in that cgi was at its most primitive back then and most of it was done by hand

filmfan · 23-07-2010 10:54am

Will do!!

yeah baby !

man that looks gorgeous. i kinda hope they dont show TOO much more so were not ruined but its great to see the imagination thats gone into this.

this is gonna be great !

Mickeroo · 23-07-2010 10:08pm

Didn't realise Daft Punk were soundtracking this. Can't think of anyone more perfectly suited to it either.

Theres some clips of their score inline now, link here:

looks AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Richard Dower · 24-07-2010 2:39pm

The CGI face of young Bridges is outstanding!...ultra realistic, and i doubt it's the final product yet!, the mouth needs a little work.

Duggy747 · 24-07-2010 5:17pm

While I wasn't expecting a perfect 35 year old Jeff Bridges I still found his eyes and mouth to be really damn noticable. (Granted they are a bitch to grasp in CGI terms) Anywho, it looks cool to see a younger Flynn.

Samples from the Daft Punk soundtrack are online, I couldn't be arsed finding them again so I'll shamelessly give ye the link of the music on my site :pac:

Richard Dower · 24-07-2010 5:23pm

^ it might be explained that it's not actually Bridges, but the master program or something, in the trailer he says i'm not your father, thus they might get away with a 100% photo realistic face, in CGI terms.

That's the idea anyways with him, I was pointing out the fact more when we first see 35 year old Bridges smiling at his son at the start of the trailer. His eyes really stand out in comparison to the rest of his face. Eyes have always been the hardest to do in CGI.

Still, the de-ageing effect does look really good. They've used the same method as Benjamin Button.

Richard Dower · 24-07-2010 5:33pm

^ actually i thought the mouth was always hardest to do, facial hair/imperfections/skin texture has come a LONG way from the days of Final Fantasy. Hair for example was very very hard to do, but the tech has come along way.

The best CGI of humans i've seen thus far was Bewolf...i think it's progressed even further, and i'm a HUGE CGI junkie.

johnny_ultimate · 24-07-2010 5:42pm

Looks like a feast for the eyes alright

Let's hope the 3D is Avatar 3D rather than the ****ty 3D in, well, everything else.

Richard Dower · 24-07-2010 5:44pm

^ it 100% is legit 3D, not "converted" post prod. , filmed from the get go in an enhanced version of the tech Cameron used.

paddyismaddy · 29-07-2010 4:01pm

it looks great

DisneyPictures · 23-09-2010 9:00pm

Hi guys! Glad to read that you're excited about the movie. I work with Disney so reading all of that definitely makes me happy! Hope you continue to share your thoughts and I'll share any news, info and assets that come along until the movie comes out. Thanks - looking forward to hearing more from you!

Here's a sneak peek of the movie:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2o5PChUr_4

the_monkey · 23-09-2010 9:08pm

Awesome teaser here too ...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhAao_Wa0C8

When you see

Bridges at the end ... nice one ...can't wait to see this in 3D.

PS is that Rutger Hauer talking to him at the start ?

patch · 24-09-2010 1:07pm

Does anybody know if this going be a lot darker in tone than the first?
The trailer seems pretty dark.
The dark knight music might be leading me astray though!
