There are stories of coincidence and chance, of intersections and strange things told, and which is which and who only knows? And we generally say, "Well, if that was in a movie, I wouldn't believe it." - Magnolia

Trailer: Tron Legacy (#2)



And here we have a BRAND NEW trailer for Tron Legacy unveiled at the San Diego Comicon where basically all the big movies for the next 2 years are being discussed and nerded over by people in storm trooper and predator costumes. But on the other hand, this trailer makes me WAY more excited. I finally saw the first Tron a little while ago and thought it was bizarre and hard to follow and interesting with tacky graphics, but now I finally get what's going on! And what those big, hovering "U" shaped machines are, as well as the light-cycles and the disc fighting, etc. Fun fact, did you know you can buy a light-cycle? Well, of course it's really just a motorcycle shaped like a light-cycle with lights on the wheels and stuff, but still. I'm just excited to see Jeff "the Dude" Bridges back as Flynn, the witty, charismatic, but determined computer nerd/hero. Not to mention the special effects look awesome and may even be worth seeing in 3D despite my general loathing for the current 3D craze and how it's just a gimmick for studios to make more money off of more expensive tickets. Plus, this trailer clarifies the existence of plot other than getting sucked back into the computer. So Flynn's son needs to rescue his father from a computer program pretending to be his father? Intriguing! Anyway, be (even more) excited for this and its December 17th release! It may even end up being the Volk family's traditional Christmas-family-movie-outing, who knows.
