I'm not a Leto fan, but why is him being attached such a bad thing?

He's been pretty great in certain roles and is certainly a good actor given the right material, but he tanked himself pretty hard with his Joker portrayal and the stories of his behavior behind the scenes. He's a massive tool, and just a really unlikable guy.

Wonder if Garret Hedlund would be back... he's basically done nothing since and certainly didn't turn into a box office star. They also were setting up Cillian Murphy as the villain for a sequel, so it'll be interesting to see whether they abandon that or not. I would imagine this would be almost a total reboot and very unlikely to get back Jeff Bridges or Olivia Wilde.

Message board complaints aside, I'd be happy with anything more Tron related. I would just hope that Kosinski would be back to direct and write Daft Punk whatever check they need to do the music again.

I think one big reason this movie has been greenlit is this:



Disney is building this spectacular new roller coaster in the Magic Kingdom in Orlando that will open some time next year. Having another movie to tie into it is just a win-win for Disney. It's just perfect cross-promotion.

I think Daft Punk's soundtrack may be my favorite part of Legacy.
The soundtrack was my second favorite thing........this was the first...

Well... I'll certainly take it, but seems like an interesting choice all the way around. Just gotta trust that they have a solid vision and will make something entertaining. And it's certainly better than the alternative of nothing at all.


Haven't seen the most important question answered though... what about Daft Punk???

Yep. Exactly. And I'm all in on both.

They didn't show people getting on or off the ride.

I don't see how the mechanics of that ride work for American fat asses.

Daft punk is for old people. The soundtrack will now be Halsey and Chainsmokers. Enjoy!

OK, I'll take whatever I can get for Tron 3 I suppose.

But where is a new vision of The Black Hole?
I'm not sure I want a new Black Hole movie, since I like the original.
I actually made my own Shooting gallery video game based on the movie as a kid.
It was probably one of the most complete games I ever made in Basic.

The black hole is a dark freaking kids movie. Nothing like seeing Maximilian and the crazy guy in hell. I had the record version of that movie and played the hell out of it. I know it's on Disney plus but I've been too chicken to watch it as an adult

The sound of Maximilian's spinning blades send a shiver down my spine.

I've only seen Tron:Legacy, I didn't realize there was a plot but just great special effects. Agree that the "young" Jeff Bridges was weird but also the actor playing the son was really bad. Cora was hot and the motorcycles were cool.

Totally unrelated to this thread but watching that gif of Jeremy Pivens, he was absolutely perfect for that role.

I bet they bring it back now that they're about to open the new Tron coaster in Disney World.

If Leto plays the villain, and they cast someone else as the lead, I can handle it. Leto was a great villain in Blade Runner 2049. But if he's some weirdo protagonist, eh, no thanks.

I feel like Leto is rumored in so many weird or sci-fi movies when they first break into the news cycle, then it ends up being someone else by the time shooting comes around.

As someone who watched 20 minute sections of Tron: Legacy on Showtime and TMC on a near-nightly basis while taking the night shift for twin babies in the summer of 2012, I feel I am qualified to say that Jared Leto will overact the hell out of his role and should not be allowed inside the system.

I can't wait until Leto's character shouts, "It's Troning time!" and kills the bad guys while "Radioactive" plays in the background.

My ex gf used to live next to him in Studio City back in ~2015. We would always see him riding around in his Bronco with girls who I am just going to assume were 18.
