I probably am the only person who shares this view, and I have already been reprimanded by friends and colleagues for it, but the first Tron didn’t strike my fancy as it did others. I probably should have seen it when I was twelve like everyone else, then I might have had a soft spot for it as an adult, but as it is I kind of slept through it.
This is all not to say that this new, fancy Tron will be a bad film. Oh no, sir. It may very well be a good movie. The trailer above gives us a little more light into the main character’s daddy issues, while showing us that The Dude has a doppelganger in computerland. There will be hijinx, I can feel it. Let’s just hope that RAM returns (even though he kind of gets erased in the first film…twenty-eight years ago.) Hey, they could have rewritten the program, right?
