Tron Goodness
All I can say is 'gigidy'.
Have you gone back and seen the original Tron? It's actually quite bad and will never live up to the memory of a 12 year old boy watching it in 1983. But still, I remember the emotion I had when I watched it then and it gives me goosebumps to think I'll be able to re-visit that place again.
So for fun and your viewing pleasure, there are 3 trailers below. The first one, is the original trailer for Tron. I love watching old trailers. Before there was an understanding of real marketing. Real style and sophistication. They make me laugh. The Tron trailer tries with interjected tag lines ("Where love... and escape... do not compute." Har har.) And somewhat compelling scenes. Better than most really.
The second trailer came out a few months ago. Apparently, it's not even in the actual movie. It's a 'demo' to showcase the technology and look for the new film. Brilliant.
And of course, last but not least, the new and real trailer for the movie due out next Christmas. I can't wait.
And did someone say "3D"? gigidy! gigidy!

Certain things you should never revisit from your childhood. I tried the original Battlestar Galactica and gave up about 15 minutes later.
The new Tron on the other hand…*drool*
