TRON 3 to film this fall
http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/03/10/ ... c36b00003f
I STILL have not seen that second one. I missed it at theaters and just never wanted to see it anywhere but there.

It completely lost the soul and humor of the first one. It was just kind of there, IMHO.Daehawk wrote:http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/03/10/ ... c36b00003f

Re: TRON 3 to film this fall
According to some website I read one time, the sequel to Tron is The Matrix. That makes sense in a dark, evil way. Even an OO way, but I don't like it.
I want Tron to be about exploration and the unknown and crap like that, not evil AIs taking over humanity like that other thread about exactly that in EBG. Look at me, I'm a hollywood executive!
Don't screw up Tron 3. That background premise reel you want to cut from the movie? LEAVE IT IN.
Tron + Tron 2.0 Game = possible awesome, dead end. End boss fight blew chunks of course.
Tron + Tron disney cartoon (good, IMO) + Tron Lebowski = less awesome, try harder for Tron 3.

Visually Tron 2 was pretty awesome.

I thought CGI Jeff Bridges was pretty good. Not great, at all, but good. Of course I didn't see it on a big screen, though. Still, I would argue that the soundtrack for Tron 2 by Daft Punk was among the best soundtracks ever. If they can get Daft Punk for Tron 3 I would be in it just for that.

Re: TRON 3 to film this fall
I mean, technology wise it was amazing. But it didn't escape the uncanny valley. I really hope CGI aging/de-aging doesn't become a popular thing. Then again, it's not as if they ever reached perfection with makeup. With CGI, perhaps they eventually can.

Re: TRON 3 to film this fall
I still don't understand how they missed the opportunity to incorporate the friggin' Internet into the story for TR2N. Seriously, they did a story about a bunch of AIs living in a mainframe that wasn't connected to anything? Who cares?
Think how much cooler it would have been to have the hero(es) chasing the villain(s) from one networked server to another around the globe, with different-looking cultural environments for each. Or maybe they could have incorporated some aspect of all the mobile devices that people carry around all day. Or the so-called Internet-of-things.

Has it even been used anywhere else? I've seen them use it on still photos that they've presented in movies, but can't think of them using it in any other "live" type setting on TV or film.Sudy Nym wrote:I really hope CGI aging/de-aging doesn't become a popular thing.

I didn't mind it. I thought it looked better than most practical effects for aging.

Maybe not quite the same thing, but with Superman Returns, they had to digitally recreate Marlon Brando to look the way he did in the earlier Superman movies. That might count as some form of de-aging.

All I know is that I hope they use Daft Punk to do the soundtrack for it and the Black Hole remake if they ever make that. I liked Tron 2, mostly because the soundtrack pushed it up a few notches.
The CGI Bridges didn't bother me too much, since he was supposed to be a computerised version anyway.

Tron 3 won't be coming to a theater near you.
Disney has chosen not to move forward with a third installment in the sci-fi series, sources say. While sources say the project was never officially greenlit, earlier this year it seemed that things were moving ahead with Tron:Legacy helmer Joseph Kosinski returning to direct and stars Olivia Wilde and Garrett Hedlund reprising their roles.
Prep had been started on the third film, and production was looking to begin this fall, likely in Vancouver, British Columbia. Disney had been interested in adding Jared Leto to the cast, but an offer and negotiations never commenced.
...
Disney's live-action tentpole calendar is pretty full for the next few years, with live-action versions of many of its animated classics in the works, including The Jungle Book, Alice: Through the Looking Glass and Beauty and the Beast.

Re: TRON 3 to film this fall
Bummer, I quite liked the reboot. It's crazy to me a $230 million profit on the last film doesn't warrant a sequel.
Disney has been developing a sequel to Tron:Legacy since the movie, made for $170 million, grossed $400 million worldwide.

Re: TRON 3 to film this fall
Yeah, I liked Tron: Legacy. Not that it was the greatest movie evar, but I thought it was well done and the plot was interesting enough.
I will say that in any event Tron3 was unlikely to meet the high "going to the movie theatre when I have young kids" bar, so any sequel is somewhat academic for me.

I enjoyed Tron 2. It was no Tron, but it was mostly ok with some neat special effects. They even managed to make some of the units from the first one less dumb looking/seeming.Sudy Nym wrote:Visually Tron 2 was pretty awesome.

I thought it was fairly good for what they set out to do. They mostly kept it in synch with the original while giving us an expanded idea of what went on since the first. But I think they missed the opportunity to show how the internet had impacted things. Or maybe that was the entire point, that the verse was in a bubble technologically. I'd have expected a lot more development of the world from that standpoint.

Getting to the Net would have been a more realistic goal than getting to the real world, but then it just turns into Lawnmower Man Transcendence.

Yeah, there's that. Made me wonder if perhaps it was a deliberate decision to avoid making references so that the world itself could stand on its own.
