I agree with Rico...the 3D didn't add anything to the experience. In fact, it actually took away from my experience. I don't know if it was the theater I went to, or the glasses they gave us (which were being wiped off and handed back out for the next show), but the movie looked so fuzzy to me that I could barely make out facial features. The only other 3D movie I have seen is Avatar, and I don't normally run to see 3D, but I thought Tron Legacy would be worth it. What a disappointment to see a disclaimer at the beginning stating that there were numerous 2D scenes in the movie! Unless we get another Avatar, I won't see another 3D. I would like to see Tron again in 2D...I would probably like it more if I could actually see faces!
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

Andrew and I went to Tron Legacy yesterday.

I thought it was overall a really solid movie for those of us that are Tron fans.  The special effects were so great!  The sound was excellent.  The story was so so, but what I loved the most was going back to Flynn's and seeing all of that. 

I felt like they did a great job on Jeff Bridges.  That was really cool. 

I wanted to like the lady character more, but really never connected like I think they wanted me too.

We saw it in 2D at a crappy theater, so perhaps the journey to Imax is in order?  I don't know.

Overall a pretty good experience at the Theater.

I have been and always will be, your friend.

Dude, she was smokin' hot, that was good enough for me. :)

The more I think about it, the more I actually want to go back and see it again. I have a freind locally who wants to see it next week and I'm going to try and hook up with him. I'll go see it in 3D again if he wants, as I said in my review I felt the 3D didn't add a lot but it didn't detract for me either. We have 2 local IMAX theater options as well, so maybe that would be cool way to see ti again.

Rick - I think you responded fine to the Quorra character.  She's suppose to be kind of without emotion and so on.  So, I think it's fine she leaves you a little cold.  But, as Bryan said, she is hot!

Had a little fun today putting myself in the movie!

Just Blogged about this..

I saw Tron in 2D, as I was told many times that the 3D doesn't really enhance the film and isn't worth the extra money you have to pay... so 2D it was.

I saw the original Tron in a drive in double feature with Star Trek The Motion Picture back in the day. I feel asleep with Star Trek but was totally enveloped in the world of Tron and loved it... I was 12. Because I waited a few weeks to see this I have been hearing other peoples reviews of this movie.. beautiful special effects, horrible story.. blah blah blah. So my quick review.. I LOVED IT!!!!

I thought the SFX were incredible, my favor was the light cycle battle.. OMG.. the double level track was pure genius. I thought the Clu (Young Jeff Bridges) was done really well. There were a few times I could tell it was altered (CG'd) but for the most part it looked like a younger Jeff Bridges. I was excited to see Tron (Bruce Boxleitner) back and even see a younger version of him as well. I liked Corra, I liked that she was different from the users and programs.. and that she was last of her kind. I liked the ladies in white, Gem was one of them, very cool scene when Sam first goes into the Grid and they dress him.. that was pretty cool.

Now for the story, I'm not sure what everyone is complaining about.. the story made since to me, it's not complicated, it's a simple story from point A to point B. I didn't expect it to be deep.. I mean it's Tron. I enjoyed it very much.

Some people are complaining about the end but I thought it was a cool ending and even leaves it open for another sequel. I like that we see Tron dropping into the ocean and changing colors from bad (red) to good (blue) and not derezing.

The one thing I loved about the movie is that the world felt exactly the same as the first Tron movie. I mean the CG is updated and the costumes were tweaked a bit as were the vehicles but in essences it was the same Tron that I watched when I was a 12 year old kid... I can't wait to see it again.

People crapped all over AVATAR's story as well Kenny and I thought it was great. I didn't mind the story, I did have an issue with the utter lack of pacing and slowness of the exposition and flash back scenes. They really threw the brakes on the movie and dragged a bit, especially when they are on the light sail ship.

This is a pretty incredible making of video

This is a very cool short film that's going to be on the "Tron: Legacy" DVD/Blu-Ray out in a few weeks.  Gives you some hints and clues about another movie and more background on Flynn.  Cool stuff!
