The Hollywood Reporter confirmed today that the studio is in the early stages of working on a version of the third installment, but it will not be a direct sequel.
Why did Tron 3 get Cancelled? As it turns out, the cancellation was partly because Brad Bird's Tomorrowland underperformed something that was believed but never confirmed. What is the TRON world called? TRON Universe. What does CLU stand for in Tron?
Codified Likeness Utility. Is Tron on Disney plus? What do the colors in Tron mean? The colors basically represent their beliefs and their purposes. Clu's forces are orange, and users and their believers are white. Some programs are blue and some are green or pink or yellow or some have multi colors Tron Uprising. Who is Zeus in Tron Legacy? Michael Sheen. Who created Tron? At the time, de-aging still represented a possible future in film. Today, its main purpose is to allow filmmakers to dig up the past without completely changing it, as the act of re-casting or retconning is apparently a far greater sin than an eerie digital makeover.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. But, while it looks marginally less spooky, it lacks the intent behind Legacy. As a more precise visual recreation of Bridges, CLU feels more like a puppet than the angry, incomplete machine of the original plus, it also somehow emotes even less. The lack of fidelity becomes necessary to the distinction between Flynn and CLU, and solidifies it as one of the most fascinating uses of the tech to date.
Flynn is now The Dude, and irreplaceable. The spooky, not-quite-human face of CLU becomes more conspicuous when the film contrasts him with that older, earthier, and funnier Bridges, whose newfound Zen attitude and ideological difference to CLU is made clear by the large beard and flowing white robes. Flynn illustrates to CLU that design by algorithm and aversion to risk is a creative method incapable of the uniqueness that comes from spontaneity and the personal.
CLU seeks refinement of what works, and Flynn simply hopes to facilitate change in the Grid rather than assert control over it.
The film makes it obvious which is the better option, making it an ironic, inadvertent warning at a time when the increasingly monolithic Disney itself appears hellbent on reforging visual arts in its own image. The Grid is visually distinct from practically anything else produced by Disney, all while serving as a harbinger of things to come.
But its continuing relevance comes from how it laid out a blueprint for how the company makes films to this day. I would have liked to see a little more substance to the story.
The beginning has a bit about free software, which is nice to see. But Legacy doesn't have the overarching sense of actually being inside a computer system that held the original film together. Apart from a few mentions of deleting or modifying programs from the real world, there's no clear correlation between it and the computer world. No — they're better, and I don't say that lightly. The light cycle sequences will blow.
Tron: Legacy is just absolutely gorgeous. It must have been a CGI wizard's dream to work on, considering that the majority of the film takes place in a world where everything should look like it's computer-generated, by definition. The de-aging of Jeff Bridges and, briefly, Bruce Boxleitner is exceptionally good. It gives the young Kevin Flynn in the prologue and Clu a slight but noticeable not-quite-rightness of their faces, but it's still the best I've seen.
I usually think 3D is unnecessary and overrated in films these days, but not this time. It's used brilliantly and refreshingly sparingly. In fact, the parts of the film that take place in the "real" world are shown in 2D which you can still watch through your 3D glasses , which makes it all the more powerful when Sam finds himself in "the grid. Bridges is one of the best actors around, so he does really well with the part he's given.
That being said, I didn't really feel that the screenwriters had captured the essence of the character.
