Y’know, I never saw the original Tron in the theatre. I can’t tell you why that is. I saw lots of movies in the theatre that same year. We had a cinema in the mall a block from our house. Maybe Tron never came there. Whatever the case, it was a few years later that I saw it and really enjoyed it. It never became a fixture of my geek formation, but it was certainly cool.
Now Tron Legacy is on the horizon. You can see the first trailer here. It looks like it’s going to live up to that legacy. Heh heh.
I’m really looking forward to this coming out in the theatre.
And am I the only one that got a chuckle that this comes out the night after Jeff Bridges won the Oscar? No?
