Hey folks, Harry here with news on the highly anticipated TRON LEGACY trailer which was selectively screened this morning around this country and beyond. From the sound of it, I really really hope it is in front of my screening of ALICE IN WONDERLAND in IMAX 3D this Monday, but that could possibly be, just my own personal idol masturbatory fantasy wish. Anyway - we had a host of spies write in with their coverage of having seen the trailer - so without further bs from me, here ya go...
Hi Harry, I was one of the "lucky few" to get a ticket to today's Tron Legacy IMAX 3D event in London - via that viral pitcell.com site. Although you'll probably get loads of these, I thought I'd jot down some thoughts for you. First, the rubs stuff: - They made us wait a long, long time outside the screen. Too long. - They only showed us "it" once. - "It" wasn't long enough. So what was "it". That's where the brills stuff comes in: - WE GOT TO SEE THE NEW TRON LEGACY TRAILER - Due to timezone shenanigans, it turned out we were to the first audience in the world to see it. - They gave us a "FLYNN LIVES" t-shirt. - WE GOT TO SEE THE NEW TRON LEGACY TRAILER Brief rundown of the trailer: - A good deal of exposition from Bruce Boxleitner - An introduction to the main character - Son of Flynn - A lot of footage from the Tron-world. - Remember the arcade from the original film? Remember the atmosphere in the arcade, with Flynn being king of his little place. That is what the Tron-world is now like. - Son of Flynn is thrown into the world, and there is a very cool shot of the Encom laser rearing it's head behind him. Sadly we only got to see it once which was disappointing, considering how long they made us wait. But I think, from what I saw and remember, Tron Legacy is going to be great. At the very least, the visuals will be remarkable. (If you use this, I'm Cosmosboy.) All the best.
