It seems like Disney wants Cindy Morgan back as Yori for Tron 3. :)

AMAZING NEWS!!!!
WOOT
Still a looker. ;D
I haven't seen the first movie (still waiting for the Blu-Ray), but she looked mighty fine. :)

Seeing as how this (hopefully) ties in to Tron 3, I thought it might be a good idea to post it here as well.

Yeah, saw that yesterday. So does this mean Master Control is back, or Dillinger? The 'dad' thing is tripping me up.
Cillian Murphy texts in blue, the colour of melodrama.
Oh god, if it was called 'TR3N'...
Don't worry, I will be Tron 3D. :D
TROLLIN ME HARD HERE.
I hope they make a third installment and put all they have into it like they did with Tron 2. I'd also love to see Garrett Hedlund and Olivia Wilde back because they did a fantastic job.
If Olivia wasn't in it I'd cease to care. She's the most interesting character still breathing in the series.
Can't wait to see her again in the Blu-Rays.
Pity Bridges won't be in this. :(

I'm sure they'll get him in there some way... I just hope it isn't stupid.
Garrett just needs to pull him out of his computer's Recycle Bin and reinstall.
Best part of Tron Legacy? Jeff Bridges fighting Jeff Bridges - on a bridge.
I haven't watched either video yet, still waiting for the blu-ray.
But if the Dillinger's are the villains, I'm hoping for the Grid to look like it did in the first movie, but with today's special effects. That will be really cool to see. Man, I can't wait for a third one...And Sticks, I agree. Not only is Quorra amazing to look at, she is also the most interesting character (Take a lesson from Tron, Michael Bay :P ) I can't wait to see how that further develop these characters in the upcoming movies. As for Bridges, I doubt he will be a character, but will likely cameo. I hope that Lora/Yori are back.
This Tron talk just re-reminded me of Uprising :D

I was just thinking about this the other day, and I came to the conclusion that if they're going to do a third one I'd want to see a completely new type of Grid. The idea in
Legacy was that the Grid had been developing in isolation for going-on twenty years, and that it was the same world as in the first film, but refined into something sleeker and sexier and new. They went from big samurai guards and chunky helmets to ninjitsu-black ops bruisers and that Joan of Arc haircut Quorra was sporting. That's one of the coolest parts in the series: watching the world evolve visually into something much more refined and sophisticated.
But in a third installment, I want to see the Grid
plugged into the internet. Think that one over for a second.

I thought it was a different Grid, or at least the original transferred over to Flynn's computer where he could modify things all on his own, hence why he was looked up to as a sort of God-like figure. That explains why he would have to transfer Tron as well.
But yeah, as for the internet, I also thought of that. I would love to seen them pull that off. I wonder how websites and stuff like that would work. Maybe an AVPG cameo? :p
Yeah, Bridges was God, that was a pretty crucial theme in Legacy. But the Grid was still running parallel to the development of computers in the real world. I think it's time to join the two.
It's too important a topic to brush over, and it's the next logical step for the franchise. Combine the fantasy computer kingdom of Tron with cyberspace as depicted in the Sprawl trilogy, and you've got yourself some trippy/relevant stuff. Just needs the right script to illustrate it.
Didn't they originally say that Legacy would start the new trilogy? If so, maybe this film would help to bridge (haha :P) into the fourth, where everything is finally connected to the internet.
No matte which movie its in, the internet is certainly something that I want to see.
And that brings up another point. Would programs from other computers attempt to start a war? Would there now be potential for the Grid to be infected by viruses?
Forget war. Nothing would be more terrifying in it's vapidity than a Tron version of Facebook.
Burn it to the ground, Olivia.
Oh God, Facebook :D
But seriously, I'm really intrigued thinking about a virus destroying The Grid.

Woah. I had no idea.
Just found out that there were viruses in Tron 2.0
http://tron.wikia.com/wiki/Virus (http://tron.wikia.com/wiki/Virus)
I would love to see a damaged Grid, derezzing slowly from viruses. Same happening to individual programs. Kind of like Quorra losing her arm, but all infected and virusey, and stuff.
The whole episode is Tron inspired. :)

Something like that happened in Betrayal, didn't it?
I believe so, but I haven't played the game, so I don't know the specifics.

I read it a while ago. Tron kicks some serious ass in this.
Ahh, thought you were talking about the game. I'm pretty sure there was a virus/ISO in that, too.
Those panels look cool. I should check that out. Is the story any good?
I think it was great. It goes a little deeper on why CLU betrayed Flynn. We also see a lot more of the ISO's and their society.
Hmm, I should definitely try to pick it up. How is the adaptation of the first movie? I saw that one around before, too.
Haven't read that yet, will pick it up some day though. :)

Sounds really cool. I would love seeing something like that in the movie. If the game is cheap enough now, maybe I'll try it out
I played through the game (in THREE DEEEZ) and it's decent. It would be completely awesome if there weren't so many little annoyances, mostly to do with wall-jump-attaching bugs. Prepare to see the DEREZZZZED screen a lot. Other than that the atmosphere completely nails it. I love the game, but mostly just for that.
Since Legacy I've become slightly obsessed with Tron. In fact I just finished up this Light Cycle 'concept':

The article made me laugh a lot.
It had for sure sold better than the films quoted in the article maybe because the marketing campaign was... 10 time bigger and maybe because they had a bigger budget?
And if the soundtrack sold well, it's probably because it was written 'Daft Punk' and not 'Tron Legacy Soundtrack'.
I'm pretty sure that if MJ would have done a soundtrack for a movie, it would have sold well too. Just sayin'...
So... why are you bitching about it's success?

Excellent news. ;D
MTV did a interview with director Joseph Kosinski.
http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2011/04/05/tron-legacy-director-joe-kosinski-on-blu-ray-tweaks-and-why-tron-3-will-be-like-the-dark-knight/ (http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2011/04/05/tron-legacy-director-joe-kosinski-on-blu-ray-tweaks-and-why-tron-3-will-be-like-the-dark-knight/)
MTV NEWS: Which of course begs the question for another "Tron" — could you see yourself passing it off or is this your baby?KOSINSKI: We're working on the story right now. Now that we've got the backstory out of the way and we know this world and we know these characters, there's a lot of freedom that comes with the next film. When you look at "Empire Strikes Back" or "The Dark Knight," sequels that were able to take the stories and characters to whole new places because you'd done all the hard work ahead of time, that's a really exciting thing. For now, I'll just say it's very exciting.
Yes!
Hopefully over the weekend I finally have a chance to watch my Blu Rays

No, the answer to your question is in the first sentence of my previous post. I just had a good laugh. Laugh is wealthy by the way :D
Quote from: SiLTen times bigger than Batman Begins and Star Trek? Horseshit.
Nah, it was in fact 1.634529149421824819421894209 bigger (that for sure makes more sense and we should talk about right numbers everytime don't you think?). The purpose was to increase the fact it had a larger marketing campaign. At least where I live (Paris) there weren't many posters, promotional items of Star Trek or Batman begins as Tron had. That's it. ::)
As for the storyline, Kosinski says the film will continue the adventures of Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund)
"I think we will pick with where TRON: LEGACY left off with Quorra [Olivia Wilde] in the real world and what does that mean and the possibilities it opens up for the next chapter. It's that relationship between the two of them that's the next step."
Also, the son of Dillinger (who makes a brief appearance in the beginning of TRON: LEGACY and played by an uncredited Cillian Murphy) could potentially play a bigger role too.
"Dillinger [David Warner] was a really important part of the first film and felt like an easy way to continue that storyline and thread to have his son in the new movie, " says Kosinski. " That way you have people ask those questions of what the Dillinger legacy is in the world of TRON. We didn't want to ignore it completely and it leaves a really nice springboard for some intertwining development for the next film."

Sounds good. I would love to see more of the Dillinger's. :)
Sounds great! Can't wait to see what they do.
Even if Bridges isn't in it, I feel t hat Hedlund is a good enough actor to carry this film.

My God...that was great.
Only one question? How did Sark get out without a user's disc? :D This Grid must be...different. :P
Really cool fan-trailer.
Probably more like the original Grid. Which, if I remember correctly, was pretty much the entire telecommunication network, not an isolated system.
Makes sense, considering Sark and the MCP were also there. Also, in the original Tron LightCycles could operate off grid, just as they can in here, but they couldn't in Legacy.
This just makes me wish that trailer was real now. I want them to return to the original Grid, but with modern day advances like the internet and WiFi.
I'd like that. Would fix up a few of my problems with Legacy. But not all of them.
What wouldn't it fix, exactly? You had a problem with the characters, right?
I liked them a lot, but with a sequel, it would surely give them the opportunity to grow.
Characters were an issue for me, yeah. But the problems I think would be solved have to do with a lack of updating to the Grid. It just didn't feel relevant.
It also didn't really feel like a computer. But that's a discussion for another time, or another thread.
Fair enough about not feeling like a computer. i thought that it worked for the story being told, but I get what you're saying. Though I attribute a lot of the bleakness of the Grid to CLU's dictatorship, and what he has done. I really loved how in the first movie the user's were worshiped as Gods, but in Legacy, after CLU took over the Grid and did what he did, users were despised.
But yeah, I want a more computerlike, updated original Grid in Torn 3. And now I just got a thought. Imagine having both Grids in the movie. Each with their distinct style. Also, in a third movie, maybe Sam, or whatever other users are in the movie, won't be trapped for the duration of the movie. Maybe they come and go into the Grid(s) a couple times. maybe a program will come out like Sark did in this trailer.
Also, Marines, did you see the Torn Uprising trailer? It looks surprisingly good. Clearly the Legacy Grid, but it has some aspects sort of like the original, such as 90 degree turning on the lightcycles. For an animated show, it looks surprisingly good.

Technological relevance is irrelevant, despite what io9's review would have you think.
Tron is a medieval fantasy story mixed with high-tech motifs (perhaps moreso in
Legacy), that occassionally flirts with the idea of a highly idealized digital frontier.
Tron: Legacy was no more about technology in the last two decades than
The Wizard of Oz was a cautionary tale about tornado season -
Tron: Legacy was a sword'n'sandals swashbuckling adventure story about a good wizard and an evil wizard who usurps the kingdom from him. That's it.

Just felt like wasted potential to me. Why bother having it in a computer if you don't do anything with that? It was the same problem I had with
Predators. They set up this interesting setting, and subsequently do next to nothing with it.

Liked the combination of right-angles and smooth turns with the Lightcycles. And Boxleitner.

Yep, the voice cast, combination of old and new, and the beautiful animation make this look like it could be great.
David DiGilio has been hired to write the script.

Bruce Boxleitner says that Tron 3 will come out in 2013. :)

QuoteDuring Disney's D23 presentation, a fan caught up with Bruce Boxleitner, who played Alan Bradley/Tron in the original "Tron" film and in the recent sequel.
The fan asked if Boxleitner will return for the third film, obviously trying to get the actor to confirm whether the third film is even being considered. "That's already a done deal," he said about returning for part 3. "It's already in the works."
When asked if there is a planned release date, Boxleitner replied: "2013. It takes a long time to make these things, but they won't get to it until next year anyway."
I knew that they will go for a 2013 release date. I wonder who direct it with Joseph Kosinski gone?
Excellent news! :D

He is directing Oblivion which comes out in 2013 also. I would imagine that he will likely not return with him directing another movie.

Hmm, that's right...
Maybe Oblivion is going to be pushed back
If he can't come back, I would like to see Steven Lisberger return to the directing position.
Brief interview about the status of the film:

Flynn lives. ;D
Interesting. Bridges is unquestionably the biggest star the series has. It would be good for hype if they brought him back, but they should have a good story reason for doing it.
Seems a first draft has been written.

Maybe if TRON: Uprising is well received, production on this might movie a bit faster, Having watched the prologue episode that came out a couple days ago, I have to say, the show really does have potential. Hope to see this movie soon!
Yeah, hopefully they won't wait another 28 years to make a sequel.
Production is moving forward.

What will they called this movie? I personally won't mind calling it "Tron 3.0" since it sounds pretty neat in my opinion and people knew that Legacy was a sequel.
Until story details come out, its impossible to know.
I'm just really excited for this to happen. Would be quite cool if Sam connected the Grid to the internet.
Hedlund is coming back:

Oh, definitely. Especially if Cillian Murphy plays a big part as his son. They were actually setting up the father/son duo in the (really cool) viral marketing stuff set after TL.

Hee hee, that got me giddy. ;D
Dan Shor (Ram from the first film) was also in one of the viral videos. If you ever find yourself with access to the TL Blu Ray, its definitely worth giving the whole compilation a watch.

So today I watched Tron, Tron Legacy, and Tron The Next Day (and all of the other Flynn Lives viral videos), and then I come in this thread and read this article. Awesome 8)
I'm actually pretty interested in this. I had the DVD of the original when I was ten and watched it until it broke. I saw Legacy in theaters, liked it but didn't love it. I'm all for another sequel though. Just not in 3D this time. At least Legacy had the decency to admit its pointlessness right out the gate.
Tron Legacy had a literal point for being available in 3D more than any other movie I've seen.
And that's all it is-- available in 3D. I can't narrow down how many times this has been said but here: nobody is forcing you to see it in 3D.

Not a chance.
I still think Legacy was a fun movie. It looks like we might have to wait until 2015 for the movie, but oh well. I still need to re-watch the first movie someday. I saw it once like 14 years ago.
Tron was one of my favorite Sci-fi movie's the year it came out and the soundtrack was off the scale.
Can't wait for this.

You didn't even like Tron: Legacy :P
I know. My relationship with this franchise is incredibly bizarre and paradoxical. I absolutely love the premise and world, but I feel that neither film has properly done them justice; yet I still love some of the cast members and characters, Boxleitner's Bradley/Tron duo being chief among them.
Long story short, I am interested in this sequel, and I want Boxleitner's badassfullness to be present throughout.

Director Joseph Kosinski Provides Update on Potential TRON: Legacy Sequelhttp://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/BadRubberPiggy/news/?a=98429 (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/BadRubberPiggy/news/?a=98429)
Quote"We're working on the story right now. Once we get a script we're all really happy with, we'll take it to the powers that be and see if we can go back to the Grid. I think we will pick [up] with where TRON Legacy left off with Quorra in the real world and what does that mean and the possibilities it opens up for the next chapter. It's the relationship between the two of them that's the next step...
Dillinger [played by David Warner] was a really important part of the first Tron and it felt like an easy way to continue that storyline and thread to have his son (Cillian Murphy) in Tron Legacy. That way you have people ask those questions of what the Dillinger legacy is in the world of Tron. We didn't want to ignore it completely, and it leaves a really nice springboard for some intertwining development for the next film."
Yes yes yes yes yes yes.
Insta-boner!
Can't wait I hope they manage to get this off the ground.
Yessssssss.
Was gonna say "They made a #2?", but then I remembered there is an older movie I have yet to see.

Idk about the "professional" critics. They probably hated it.
About time!
i'm actually surprised this is going ahead because at the moment... disney want all the 'boomage' with STAR WARS lol.
I'm from the toy industry and from what I can tell, Disney / Marvel / Lucasfilm will be doing their best to turn their key franchises into unisex properties. They know what a golden cash cow these franchises would be if they could get both sexes into them. So far nothing has really attained that appeal that "Twilight" had to both sexes. We see now that Marvel has launched a Princess Leia comic book. I expect that Cora from Tron may be what keeps that franchise alive in the eyes of Disney. Disney wants to have a whole line-up of princesses in every genre. Now with Star Wars they have Princess Leia and I expect that Cora will be the digital world princess. My 2 cents.
Anyway, I am super stoked about the new Tron. Going to rewatch Legacy right now...

Ha ha, I actually had to look that up. I never watched how I met your mother.
From a toy industry perspective, Twilight should have been the perfect storm to attract boys and girls to play with licensed merchandise, but it never happened that way like Star Wars for example. The fact that the property did not translate so well into toys does not take away from the fact that it was a huge hit with more or less a 50 / 50 split in terms of appeal for both sexes.
This is really just my hunch but I suspect that what the big story property owners (Hasbro, Disney, Marvel, etc.) will want is to do a bit of cross-dressing of the properties to attract members of the opposite sex who do not traditionally enjoy the property. Watch what happens with Star Wars and Tron and tell me I'm wrong afterwards.

Man, I absolutely loved and still do love Tron: Legacy. One of the best underrated films out there. Awesome from beginning to end.
Oh yeah, I'd love another sequel.
I hope they do it before Boxleitner and Bridges get too old to reprise their roles.
De-aging CGI has come a long way since Legacy. They may actually be able to give us better renditions of young Flynn and Tron.
TBH, I didn't really mind Clu in Legacy. The effect was far from perfect, but I think being in that totally digital environment, I was able to easily overlook it; it felt part of the environment, if that made any sense.
The shot at the beginning of the movie, though, with digitally de-aged young Kevin... that one was rough.
I can't recall why this movie was so reviled when it came out...

Flynn merges with Clu. No idea what that means, exactly, but I'd bet there's some trace of him left in the Grid's coding. A digital Holy Spirit.
Last we see of Rinzler, he was sinking and his colors reverted back to Tron's. So I think he's very much "alive," and now very much aware of who he is.

There were actually 2 versions of the soundtrack released. One of which is a remix that plays fairly well. I misplaced it and must find it!
Here's what I really love to do nowadays... in the evenings, I get into my car and put on the Tron Legacy Daft Punk sound-track and go for a spin through deserted, empty streets of Toronto. Just an amazing experience... it almost has that Will Smith / I Am Legend vibe...
Tron: Legacy was one of those films that makes you happy IMAX 3D is a thing.
I think that was Tron: Legacy's big problem. It was too well done for people's tastes who were hoping for a similar low-fi experience to the the original Tron....
Which is really silly.
I would be pretty interested in seeing a return to a modernized version of the Encom Grid from the original, which has a totally different aesthetic from Flynn's Grid in Legacy. Maybe bring the two together somehow via the internet, since the internet is a foreign concept to these films so far.
The web was mentioned in Legacy. The new Encom operating system was uploaded to the web. But it didn't quite exist in the virtual space of the grid...

Yep, shoulda chosen my wording better. What I meant was that we haven't seen either Grid connected to the internet, since they've both been entirely standalone systems.
FYI Uprising is on Disney+. I never got to watch this when it came out, and I don't believe it was ever released on DVD or anything either.

Too long ago to really remember tbh, I just know I wanted to turn it off about half way through (couldn't because I was watching it with the other half). Vaguely remember not finding any of the characters interesting, and the set pieces being dull.

No, with user metrics of 6.8 on IMDB, 63% on Rotten Tomatoes and 7.2 on Metacritic, Tron Legacy being hot garbage is
not the common view.
And I personally like it too.
Personally I'd put it my top 10 "enjoyable" films of the last 10 years. Soundtrack is the bomb. Effects are good outside of Clu, acting good, set pieces pretty good.
I was spewing they didn't go back for for the third. More films with the Rock in it I suppose....

Jared Leto looks way younger than his age. Maybe Jared Leto is a vampire like Instagram said.
Not thrilled with Jared Leto choice. He was the worst part of BR49
So was Wallace taking Deckard to the Grid? ;)

That's at least definitely interesting
This pleases me immensely. I thoroughly enjoy the first two. Though I still have to finish watching Uprising.
Same, actually. I watched a few episodes back in the day but never really stuck with it. I should change that, now that it is on D+.
Tron: Legacy is amazing top to bottom from its daft punk soundtrack to the lush visuals. Really hope Jared Leto passes on it, though.
I will never understand the poor reception to Legacy. An immensely great film. Every aspect of it.

Agreed. I was never crazy about 3-D but I remember seeing Legacy 2 or 3 times in that format in the cinema. It was soooo immersive.
Despite a super lukewarm opening at the Box Office the film had crazy legs, though. Went from being a disaster to pretty modest return all in its theatrical run.

Not keen on Jared Leto after BladeRunner.
Leto might have revealed the title.
(https://images2.imgbox.com/4d/3a/n69w53l4_o.png)
Looks like he has since removed mention of the word "ARES." So either that's a working title, or that's the real thing, and either way, someone asked him to remove it. :D
https://twitter.com/JaredLeto/status/1292942227040157697
I don't know enough about Tron to know if Ares have some meaning or connection to the previous films.
Really could do with a Tron: Legacy rewatch though. 8)
Maybe it means he's related to Zoos?

No word yet, but crossing my fingers. It wouldn't be Tron without, well... Tron.
Sounds like an in-continuity reboot to me. I don't see them starting from scratch or scrapping
Legacy or anything like that, but I do kind of feel like it isn't going to directly connect to the events in those two either and opt for telling a more standalone story. I wouldn't be shocked to see it set on an updated version of the original ENCOM Grid from the first film, and if that's the case, then there wouldn't really be any call for the events of
Legacy to factor in (barring, perhaps, Quora existing in the real world) in a really direct way because that was on Kevin Flynn's own personal Grid.
Cillian Murphy though?

But the directors filmography doesn't exactly excite me tbh.
Yeah, I love Tron and Tron: Legacy and want to hope for the best here but also.... Jared Leto and the guy that directed a bad Pirates sequel....
EDIT: Just did some digging and found this article from 2012: https://collider.com/tron-3-moving-forward-jesse-wigutow/
Jesse Wigutow is the writer now currently attached to Tron: Ares as well. I wonder if maybe any of the old Kosinski-era "Tron 3" ideas might end up folded into Ares.
Not just a bad Pirates sequel, the worst Pirates sequel. :-X

I'd do more than settle – I really hope to see them again!
I hope there's some presence of Kevin Flynn in this new Grid, too, even if we don't get to see him in the biodigital flesh.
I know at one point early on in "Tron 3's" development, when Kosinski was doing it and it was going to be a direct
Legacy sequel, it even seemed like Yori was going to be coming back from the first film.

Cameron Monaghan and Sarah Desjardins have joined

Also, the Desjardins article mentions a brief plot synopsis that I'm pretty sure is new:
QuotePic follows Leto's computer program Ares on a journey from the digital world to that of humans.
'Tron: Ares' Filmmaker Joachim Rønning Says Pic "Shut Down" With 150+ People Laid Off Due To Strikes; Urges Studios & Guilds To "Speed Up The Negotiating Process"
QuoteFilmmaker Joachim Rønning took to Instagram to let followers know that Monday was suppose to be the first day of production for his upcoming Disney movie, Tron: Ares, however, "we are shut down with over a hundred and fifty people laid off," he says due to WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
"It's indefinite, which makes it exponentially harder for everyone," he adds.
Rønning then urged, "The AMPTP, SAG-AFTRA and WGA need to speed up the negotiating process and not leave the table until it's done."
"This is Hollywood. We close deals for breakfast. Why do we suddenly have all the time in the world when every day is so precious? These tactics are extremely frustrating. It's time for diplomacy so we can get back to work – under conditions that are fair to everybody #amptp #sagaftra #wga," he added.
Deadline sources inform us that production on Tron: Ares is merely paused until both guilds return to work; the plug hasn't been pulled on the Disney threequel.
The WGA and AMPTP recessed talks on Friday with plans to resume them soon this week. The WGA let guild members know that the Negotiating Committee received a counterproposal from the AMPTP, and was in the midst of evaluating it.
Tron: Ares casted up before the SAG-AFTRA strike with Jared Leto, Evan Peters, Greta Lee, Sarah Desjardins, Cameron Monaghan and Jodie Turner-Smith. The third Tron movie, penned by Jesse Wigutow and Jack Thorne follows Leto's computer program Ares on a journey from the digital world to that of humans. In his post today, Rønning said that the next Tron coincidentally is about an important deal point in labor talks, a pic "subsequently about AI and what it means, and takes, to be human". The director further emphasized, "AI needs to be regulated. There is no doubt about the threat the technology poses to all creatives."
Rønning, whose movie Kon-Tiki was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film in 2013, also directed the Disney pics, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales ($796M WW box office) and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil ($491.7M WW).

Vomit
It's also pretty odd in that it's literally using one of the cliffhangers/launching points from the end of Tron: Legacy (an AI character in the real world) but... with nothing seeming to directly carry over from Legacy.
I'd rather see what happens when the system gets connected to the internet. The real world ain't gonna have light cycles.
Quote from: Local Trouble on Aug 15, 2023, 04:11:27 PMI'd rather see what happens when the system gets connected to the internet. The real world ain't gonna have lightcycles.
Aye.
Legacy makes it such an explicit point that Kevin Flynn's personal Grid is totally disconnected from everything else and on its own server, so coming out of that movie, a Grid that's connected to the internet was my major hope for a third film as well.
It may become unrecognizable when that happens. Flynn's system still has light cycles and recognizers because they're assets from the video games that he created and stored on the ENCOM mainframe back in the early 80s.
A system connected to the internet would probably get invaded by 40 years worth of newer assets from games like Minecraft and WoW, so we'd end up with something resembling the world of Wreck-It Ralph.

Tron 2.0 is f**king fantastic, arguably my favorite FPS of all time.
Some of its "computer" concepts are a little archaic by modern computer science standards, but that's kind of the case with any computer-centric media on a long enough time scale (see also 'Colossus: The Forbin Project', 'WarGames', the original 'Tron').

Legacy debuted with a teaser that called it "TR2N," so I'm guessing this is just a working title as nod to that.
Release title is likely going to end up being
Tron: Ares.
I'm still deeply confused by the fact that Expendables 4 was officially titled Expend4bles. :laugh:

Garrett Hedlund
Bruce Boxleitner
Cillian Murphy
Olivia Wilde

Good Jesus...
If this was a reboot then ok but calling it tron 3 and not having the cast from 2 is just stupid.
Hell yeah, tbh I can buy all of those names missing if they include just one.....

Crazy that this thread started all the way back in 2011 and now 13 years later we're receiving actual news on the production. Feels like a little window into cinema history for anyone who wasn't there to experience Tron 3 hype after Legacy came out (yes I know I'm young 😭)
