I loved Tron Legacy.
Is this actually bad?
because legacy got bad reviews too.
I don't trust these online review sites anymore.
>>
>>215130748
jared leto dated an ai module to get into character for this film
you tell me if it's bad
>>
>>215130748
The fact is that they purposefully destroy Sams character by saying he nearly bankrupted his father’s company and only when a badass female girlboss took over as the CEO did things turn back around.

It also has some hideous gorilla nogs in it so DO NOT WATCH THIS.

>>215130748
If you read the reviews, the criticisms are in line with the rest of the franchise. It looks and sounds great, but the script is dull.

She's more the MC than Ares.

>>215130748
Yes, if you liked Legacy you have the taste of a tweenaged boy. You liked a movie because it had a unique soundtrack and ADHD visuals and disregarded its lack of story, its wooden acting, its complete inability to challenge the end-stage capitalist paradigm embodied by Encom and the techbro CEO antagonist from the start of the film.

Just face it, a Tron film is never going to get "good" reviews, just watch it if you liked the others and make up your own mind.

>>215130748
Spoilers

None of the other characters are in it bar Jeff bridges

Basically the film is Majoras Mask in effect because Anything that comes from inside the grid only lasts 29mins before it disintegrates and it’s Encom (Dillingers grandson and mother Scully) vs a woke game company Asian chick who has just figured out the “permanence” code and are racing to get from one of Flynns old floppy disks. so Ares sent by Dillinger turns because of “benevolence”during this process develops Empathy and decides to help the Chinese girl instead of capturing her

The whole film is fucking shit


Music is absolutely trash ONLY on a couple of alone scenes where Ares is talking to the giant head andross from starfox does the music hit

But the chase sequences are long and drawn out in the city and the cinematography went over the top with red Tron was never red as it implied villain and corruption

As a Tron fan I fucking hate everyone saying the visuals are great there’s nothing cinematic the chase scene inside the grid has several shots that looks like it has background scenes sped up with actors reacting to the background scene because it’s so fast it’s retarded

Honestly the biggest question I had was why the fuck the old Grid from
the original Tron was somehow still around with a Jeff Bridges hologram in it. I thought it was upgraded to the Legacy Grid
I think the movie would've been less enjoyable if I wasn't doing a 4DX screening, I would've been too focused on my questions

For the thousands of people wondering, the big door, unfortunately, does not make an appearance in Ares :(
>>
>>215130748
No. It's not good. It's boring, the characters are flat, the dialog has no wit or energy, the story is the most by-the-books Disney storytelling you can get with an overly complicated narrative for something that's really simple, none of the set-up of Tron Legacy is here, the world building is terrible, the fights are poorly shot and edited.

It can look nice at times, and the soundtrack is fine (not great, and there were other better choices for artists for the score (not just Daft Punk). Its' not worth your time.
> because legacy got bad reviews too.
Yeah. Back then, the critics were wrong.

Ares is an instant 0/10

Oh come now. I'm a sucker for father son stories so I liked Legacy but you're insane if you think that script was anything but middling to weak.

what made the original tron special is it had a neat direction and a massive amount of work went into making it work visually. the rest is meh

>>215137862
>He was a fucking deadbeat that lived in a shitty container, dude.
His arc is literally him learning to be responsible and continue his father's company and legacy and work with Alan to make it better.

Nah, it's actually pretty strong especially juggling the world building, the stakes, the rules, and the characters.

All this says is that he takes over the company. Running it into the ground over time is still in-character. Your evidence is a failure, sorry.

>>215138589
>Running it into the ground over time is still in-character.
Because he didn't care. Then he changed his mind to care.
>Him ruining a company is extremely in-line with his character.
Nothing indicated him of poorly running the company. He made pranks, but that was because he wanted to troll the the company. He's literally smart enough to break into the company, hack their systems, and escape from custody.

Next time, stop looking at your phone instead of the movie.

After seeing Ares, I'm rewatching the first two films. Both marginally more enjoyable than Ares. But, did they release a director's cut for Legacy? Because there are scenes where it'll have letterboxing, then it won't, and I don't remember that happening the last time i watched it.

That's the fucking weird thing, they namedrop Sam as the owner of Encom prior to Kim which seems to imply this is after Legacy. It puts Ares in this weird ass paradox zone if you try to think about it.
I wish we could at least apply the Tron 2.0 flat out decanonization because then we could treat Legacy and Uprising as a separate timeline to Ares. What's even weirder is the post credits scene considering not only does the CEO guy arrive to the Grid in plainclothes but he seems to be getting possessed by some remnant Sark data or some shit? At least I didn't hate Leto as much as I was expecting to but man this movie felt off the whole time

None of the Tron movies are bad.

In fact, one of the best part of them is how easily they filter fucking snob retards who think they are superior for liking trash that isn't as deep as they think it is when you really analyze them.

Not a single Tron pretends to be more than what it is: Amazing visuals, amazing music, great action, and a story filled with what it needs to complete an interesting arc with some interesting questions about to technology that leaves you thinking for a bit

That's it. It doesn't need to change your fucking life to be a good movie.
>>
>>215130862
Sam was a literal activist who never cared about money. In fact, at the end of legacy, he wanted to give the company to Alan and escape with Quorra. Not, be a CEO himself.

It's a much bigger crime to not mention Alan or Tron at all. I mean what the fuck does it say in the title? I wanted to know what happened to Rinzler.
>>
>>215137947
>no sam or qoura
they do appear at the end and Sam is namedropped many times
>no edward dillinger
you talking about the son? fair enough, I guess it was because the actor is too famous to be cheap now so they dropped him since his character wasn't that important in legacy either
>no legacy grid
Encom's grid is literally modeled after Legacy grid, wtf are you talking about?
>no need for kevin's code to leave the grid for programs
Kevin is dead faggot, he only lives inside the machine now. The office from where they access the original Tron was built by Sam so it's fair to say he copied the data of the grid where Flynn meshed with CLU in it to preserve his memory.
>>
>>215140696
On the Legacy Grid note, nta but I think I figured out the discrepancy that was bugging me. The Encom grid is THE Grid, whereas the 80's Grid is from the backup server. The part that was fucking me up is that there didn't seem to be any hinting that they took the full setup back with them, and the way they treated the situation with Kim made it come off like they didn't really prep a plan b. And yet apparently they brought back the computer I guess with the photon laser and either I missed it or they never really showed them loading it with the laser when heading back to Encom
>>
>>215130862
Sam was reckless and rejected being his heir bro
>>
>>215130748
The first one is probably the most interesting. Legacy is kinda cheesy with the model looking couple and the sob stories. This one goes all Marvel but it's also good. A bit better than other franchises, it's fun to watch at the movies. Each movie has its charms

>>215131428
She is actually the main character, which makes all the promos weird

Ares is the main character. The chick is just there to keep moving the plot while Ares is going through his self discovering journey. Even her supposed dramatic plot point is just a tool to teach Ares about death and the shortness of real life

>>215137899
No I didn’t miss that you dumb cunt I’m totally aware of the different grids and him becoming white was retarded, it should have been blue. Lisberger stated specifically in the making of the colours represent each of the programs directives, we only ever see blue for 8 minutes in Enron’s grid because I timed it and 11 minutes of red grid most of which is a sped up chase scene on water that looks retarded the rest is on earth except the few minutes at the end when in original grid.

Plus the music was shit I’ve listened to the soundtrack all the way through for weeks now as it’s been up on NINs YouTube for free. It’s shit. There’s only 3 good tracks and it’s low beat ones that provide moments of melancholy or thoughts. Also none of the titles for the songs makes sense do the research. There’s no emotional value to each track it’s dead

Legacy was also a bad movie
>>
>>215140626
I'm pretty certain in Tron Ancension Tron was supposed to come back/be restored after falling into the sea and enter the real world to save Sam and Quorra from Ares
>>
>>215140696
Cillian Murphy was supposed to be the main bad guy of Tron 3 he wasn't just supposed to be some cameo
>>
The soundtrack is good if you're a NIN fan. It's completely unrelated to the previous soundtracks, but some tracks are very reminiscent of Carlos's "A Clockwork Orange."
>>
Why do you all suddenly care about Alan, Sam, and Quorra so much? Alan/Tron was greatly overshadowed by Bridges' charisma in the original. And in Legacy, he was just some old dude. Tron was also relegated to a side character in Legacy, and no one complained. Sam was just a boring white male protagonist from the 00s, and Quorra was just an eye candy for the male audience. You know what Olivia Wilde looks like now? Do you really want to see an old bogged hag in leather?
