This Is NOT the End Of Line For TRON's Legacy



TRON: Legacy
Not A Review.
In case you never saw the original,
Here's what it looked like:



Damn primitive, right?
Well don't mock it ok,
TRON was the first to use CG special effects,
Heck, without them we wouldn't have Pixar.
Oh, and this is what the light cycles looked like in TRON:



And this is how they look in TRON: Legacy:



Damn awesome right?
The visual effects on this one are AWESOME.
The light cycle battle, the disc wars,
The Recognizers,
Even the 'ice cubes' were ice PIXELS.
How awesome is THAT?
Yup, this is one heck of a visual feast.
Too bad about the story though....



FLYNN LIVES!
And he is now... er... some kind of Zen Dude.
Like The Dude, but more Zen.
Also damn power ok,
He's Obi-Flynn Kenobi!
(His son's pretty boring though)



Too bad the story's pretty rubbish though.
Then again, so was Avatar's.
And wasn't the original's pretty much like that as well?
Oh, and that whole Michael Sheen part was pretty pointless eh?
The main attraction here is the visual effects.
We saw it on IMAX 3D and it was AWESOME.
So were the sound and music.



Oh, and the Daft Punk soundtrack ROCKS.
I STILL can't get the bloody theme out of my head.
And I still think that bloody End Of Line Club scene,
Was there specifically so Daft Punk could have a cameo.
As mp3 DJs WTF.



Oooh Olivia Wilde.
She's hot.
Even hotter than she was as Number 13.
Her eyes damn big ok?
And she's damn cute.
You'll love her from the very first time you hear her laugh.
She's just a cute little pixie pixel!
Ok, a HOT cute little pixie pixel!



If you loved the first one, you'll love this one.
It's almost like the first one, but with MUCH better SFX.
But I don't get the added stuff about the ISOs.
It's like George's Midichlorian shit.
But I'd watch it again just for the light-cycles.
And Olivia Wilde of course.
Sigh...
Let's hope this is NOT the end of TRON's line.

Eyeris @ Comic Con, Day 1: Five Cool Things

What a first day it's been. Between rushing for the Tron: Legacy press conference and then lining up for almost 2 hours to get into Hall H, I didn't get to grab as much swag as I would have liked. But never fear, there are a few more days of Comic Con to go...

Anyway, it's midnight here and I need to go to sleep soon. So here's a quick recap of what I thought was really cool in the first day of Comic Con!

1) Geek God Matchup!
Joss Whedon = Cool.
J.J. Abrams = Cool.
Whedon AND Abrams together in the same panel... = AWESOME!

(Also, Whedon OFFICIALLY announcing that he will be directing the Avengers movie!)

2) The Expendables panel.
Stallone, Lundgren, Stone Cold, Crews, Willis. So much testosterone on stage that Harry Knowles had to be 'the estrogen'. The movie looks absolutely MENTAL.

3) TRON: LEGACY. New trailer up!




4) Superman and Captain America on the Scott Pilgrim panel! (well, sort of)





5) Costumes. Hot babes. 'Nuff said.
