movies

I'm a huge Tron fanboy but I mean it's always a surprise when they bring the franchise back. Lets face it the first two films flopped, the tv series was cancelled, the games never sold well and they were all great.

but I mean setting the film in the real world simply because of the ending of the last movie wasn't it. they COULD have had Quorra and Sam in it to see how it's working out for them but instaed you just a couple of pictures of them both. that's it. in the last film you literally have the revelation that Rinzler is Tron and then in this film, called Tron Ares, there's no Tron what so ever.

Legacy set up a third film beautifully and the writer/director for Ares was all "we're not having that". How do you have a Tron movie without Tron. why even call it Tron?

But don't worry kids! They will absolutely NOT learn their lesson, and will put megacreep Leto as a main actor in yet more $200 million-budget blockbusters to come!

It's like Leto has blackmail dirt on Hollywood suits or something, they just keep. On. CASTING. Him!!
It's like the gods demand an intentional box office disaster sacrifice every season, and the Hollywood corporate Ferrari-and-suits assholes MUST abide!

Maybe they can do a $400 million-budget extravaganza with Leto AND Ezra Miller!

Of course it did. Both of the other Tron movies were flops.

I seriously wonder what blackmail Jared Leto’s agent has on producers in Hollywood.

Tron? Yes! NiN soundtrack? Interesting but sure! In present day LA? N... no.. With Jared Leto? NO

Took all the cool cyberpunky/futuristic things out of it, and slapped Jared Leto as the poster boy.

Tron Legacy let's remember what was good about it. Everyone has new 1080p flat screens they wanted to show off, so in the Grid was awesome. Sickass Daft Punk soundtrack. Olivia Wilde was hot as hell. Jeff bridges was, well Jeff bridges and the plot was unremarkable.

It's like they were like "no need to retrospect, we'll make it cheap and they'll love it!"

I'm refusing to pay to see it solely because of Jared Leto.

So are many, MANY people I know. They really shot themselves in the foot with that decision.

Serves Disney right for cancelling that Tron: Legacy sequel.

The 180 million USD budget is the relevant context here. Morbius was considered to be doing well until its 2nd week but it only cost 75-82 million (production budget only of course)

Most likely this will be a much bigger flop than that

I feel like I was the "target" for this movie. Tron's retro futurism/ cyberpunk style has always been interesting. NIN doing the soundtrack! I've listened to it at least 5 times already. Jared Leto? Well I'm not a big fan but he was good recently as a detached psychopath villain in Blade Runner 2049. But is that really a compelling lead? Joachim Ronning directing? Uh oh. A Disney journey man just making the same soulless films. Bottom line is I absolutely despise Disney/Marvel/ new Star wars movies. I don't trust Disney to do anything remotely new, interesting or meaningful. If they do I consider it a fluke now. I'm assuming this will be like 90% modern Disney movies where they worked on "cgi action scenes" 2 years before they wrote the script and everything will feel like it was scenes pasted together for the trailer advertisments without any interest in world building, plot or characters. Just a bunch of over dramatic dialogue to get to the next "cgi action spectical". No thanks.

Tron Legacy is one of my favorite movies of all time, an endless comfort watch. I saw it twice in theaters and easily 100+ times since then. I was so excited for a new Tron movie and then Jared fucking Leto and I dropped it off my watch list entirely. I'll pirate it at some point, I don't know how much I'll be able to enjoy it. Fuck Jared Leto and fuck everyone that thought yeah putting this guy in our multi hundred million dollar project is a great idea.

How was it supposed to make money? It's got Jared Leto in it.

Leto is a hack, and a guarantee for a flop.

I’m sad they dragged Reznor into this

I'm a pretty big Tron fan, since I was a kid. But this movie kinda feels like it's just wearing the corpse of Tron around. Legacy was cool, no idea why they wouldn't just continue with that story. And going from Daft Punk to NiN is not winning me over in the slightest, never been into NiN. This doesn't feel like it was made for current fans, and it doesn't feel like it was made to attract new ones either. I haven't seen it yet, highly doubt I will see this one in theaters.

I fucking love Tron, but fuck this, get Jared Leto the fuck out of movies. The only good cult leader is Cult Leader.

Edit: Also, a Tron movie set in the real world, get fracked.

I was impressed at how Leto could almost act like a real person. The soundtrack was good though.

See you all in a decade when they try rebooting this franchise again!

It's almost comical at this point how Disney just refuses to learn from their mistakes.

Leto can fuck right off a cliff. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Yeah, I don't think superhero movies will do good for a while.

The current climate of the world is in people realizing that superheros and hope doesn't exist and good guys don't win. So when you see another superhero movie where the good guys win .... it rubs you the wrong way when you know that this isn't the reality in the real world.

I saw it yesterday only because it was BIL's birthday pick.

It was... Not good. Soundtrack was a banger though. Literally the only positive thing I have to say about the movie.
