I saw Tron when I was a wee lad, and although I didn’t really understand it I did love the look of the film and the idea of being sucked into a computer game. It’s only grown on me as I’ve got older and understood more of the story and started to get some of the techie references.
Well, Disney have decided to have another crack at this brilliant film with Tron: Legacy. The story (from Apple’s trailer page) is:
Sam Flynn (GARRETT HEDLUND), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (JEFF BRIDGES), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant (OLIVIA WILDE), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.
If ever there was a movie that would benefit from updates in special FX, Tron’s it – so enjoy this trailer/teaser/SFX test and get ready to wait for the release with all the geeky anticipation you can muster :)
More details (release date, locations etc.) will follow as and when we get them!
