Just got back from watching Tron Ares and it was actually not bad (i had zero expectations or knowledge of what to expect going in).

What I don't get is why the protagonist is this chick, yet all the marketing and advertising has Jared Leto and she's nowhere to be seen? Why?
>>
>>215187207
cuz nobody knows who the fuck she is

jared leto was perfectly cast for his role btw and i will die on that hill
>>
>>215187265
and yet it was still not great. Put a regular good actor in this role like Mark Wahlberg and I'd have more fun. I dont know why but that's a fact and you know it
>>
>>215187265
So why even make the movie about her and not about Jared Leto? Or just cast a well known actress to play her?
>>
>>215187207
>and it was actually not bad
If that's you praising this movie then fucking kek
>>
>>215187316
Mark Wahlberg in a Tron movie would be the biggest miscast of all time lmao
>>
>>215187319
Probably an internal battle between the people making the movie and the ones who have to sell it.
It reminds me of when they marketed that one godzilla movie around Brian Cranston. Why not just make scientist man Cranston the main character instead of that boring dude?
>>
>>215187207
She's thoroughly unimpressive looking. Idk like asking Grok to gen an image of 'average aged average asian average lady' and she'd pop out. Leto looks interesting at least.
>>
>>215187483
I don't know if it was the angles but she's got a fat ass

>>215187207
If they had got Awkwafina for it then she would have been frint and centre of the marketing and the film would have done tons better. But she put her foot down and said she wouldn't be in a movie with Leto as there's something up with the guy and how they keep casting him for these things.same reason.

Dude have you been asleep for the 2020's? Tron Leg would have stuck out only if the protagonist had been a man. The movie was made by fucking DISNEY the odds of the movie having a female protagonist along with all the rest of the female characters being portrayed as the focus of power was 100%

It was a good movie, better than the horrible garbage 28 years later, Sinners, Superman, Peacemaker and many other movies who get high ratings because of the submissive white sissies on critics give good ratings alongside with non-white men because non-white men enjoying racial dominant sexual explicit movies and tv shows made for non-white men racial sexual feeling of dominance and explicit racial pride pleasure fucking women of other race or against the race of white male or anti-white male scenes were the race of white men is keep as inferior race of men as boomers, kids, old people, femdom, bad sex, drama, rape, cuck, gays, bisexual, loners, jokes, comedy, everything to keep the race of white male sexually inoffensive for non-white men enjoy racial sexual dominant social engineering and the race of white men is the only race groomed as gay characters, isolated race, sexually negative scenes, blandest sexually unattractive couples for female and male all for racial pleasure of non-white men with racial submission in the white sissy race social engineering of losers industry for years calculated around, how do we make white men pretend to be male in the most sterile, sexually non-dominant, non-hot, non-attractive for females and males and attractive only for non-white men races who could enjoy watch the race of white men without feeling sexually threatened since the race of white male is keep as neutral dead bland empty object, generic bland same race couples, negative loser cuckold race for non-white men, shitty loser race of men porn industry, submission for non-white men

The main characters are Jared Leto, this girl who fits his age range and she is good, the loyal black girl who follows Tron rules, and the actor who played Quicksilver in X-Men as the hacker controlling the codes. The movie was solid, don't just jump on the bandwagon of negative opinions.

Don't be manipulated to undermine yourselves race you dumb retards.

I've learned not to trust even the lukewarm recommendations on /tv/. (And posters who make a point of highlighting how they had zero expectations/knowledge going in, or went in expecting the film to suck, are especially suspicious: why pay to see the film at all, then?) But I was out anyway as soon as I saw the negress in the trailer.

Her motorcycle chase was fucking awful compared to Tron and Legacy where as riders Kevin and Sam easily get into the groove of the light cycle while with her she's crying and screaming while barely being able to drive it holy fuck was that awful.

She's supposed to be some gamer/game developer this should be cool as fuck for her

Clearly you don't get this, but if you're the sort of person who's ambivalent at best about seeing a film, but goes to see it anyway because they're that lacking in hobbies/interests/discernment, then you're not really worth listening to - even assuming you don't have an agenda.
>I dont live in a third word country
I didn't until relatively recently, but increasingly I do, so it'd be nice to escape to a place where there aren't nogs everywhere you turn. But no, they have to be shoved into the computer world too.

at no point does she girlboss, at most she's pretty aloof to her employees, and she's mostly following and obeying to Ares (given how he's the one who actually knows wtf is going on and has the inside info on the dillinger kid)
>>
>>215189917
You are actually fucking retarded. The movie shows she owns and prefers riding a motorcycle and that she developed videogames (Kevin Flynn did the same).

So logically from a story telling perspective this sets up her as excelling as a lightcycle user like Kevin and Sam and yet she spends the whole time crying and screaming it's fucking awful
>>
>>215189948
she does pretty well with her own motorcycle, but when exposed to a completely different tech that probably doesn't even obey real world physics she fumbles, as expected

>>
Legacy was considered trash, attacked by all critics, to years later be weirdly liked when it was heavily attacked at the time.

Now people are hating on Tron, which hasn't even been released in China yet, a movie that was cool and awesome.

But no, people are hating on it because you're a bunch of unfun, sub-human people who like boomer garbage like F1, Top Gun, James Gunn, and other trash.

The same people who are shilling that this movie is bad are the ones who tried to shill James Gunn and other garbage movies as good.

This movie is really good. The stupid people are just the ones who follow the hate bandwagon, repeating the Twitter hate shilling made by bots.

These same bots are the ones who spread hate against Jared Leto and followed the bandwagon, but the same Twitter doesn't hate on James Gunn for his pedophile jokes. All the garbage James Gunn content like Peacemaker or Superman gets positive reviews.

Why I should hate Jared Leto? Because he's not black? He need to have gay/cuck loser shit to show total humiliation submission for bots? Submit himself to ritual humiliation on Hollywood? Because he's is in his 50s and still attractive and looking in his late 30s or early 40s?

This whole concept would be better served as a gritty live action version of Digimon. Leto with goggles could have been an adult Tai.

Standards were higher back then.

Legacy was released in 2010, before woke-shit became a cultural problem in Hollywood. Yes, people were disappointed with Legacy, because the story was a weak-rehash of the first movie. ...but people LATER figured out that the story worked for the most part and started developing it's cult-status. Warranting a third movie..

..but as you know post-2010, woke-shit culture became an issue and suddenly all the producers in Hollywood forgot how to make good movies anymore. That when we look back at 2010, people look at Legacy like it was a good movie, compared to the shit we consume today.

Shitting on Tron: Ares is real... the only way for people to worship this movie, as they have with the other two movies is to see the entire industry shut down, and we go back to Vaudeville theater acts of trannys teaching normal people how to swap out tampons..... then people will look back at Ares, believing it was the best thing ever to warrant another movie.

The Baiting and Switching will continue until morale improves.
>>
>>215199053
It's an even split between her and Leto.
>>
So the takeaway from Legacy and Ares is that every human deserves their own personalized AI wife or husband.

Same. Maybe for those who expected plot and character development, they're gonna have a bad time with this. But I knew from the trailers what I was getting into: a Transformers level spectacle and I got just that. The action was so cool and non-stop.

This is also the best ILM has looked for years and I'm still mindblown by the visuals. I watched this movie twice, and I'm gonna rewatch it again tomorrow
>>
Just got back from seeing it, here are my thoughts.
>Jared Leto really, really likes Depeche Mode
>there are severe tonal inconsistencies, e.g. the bridge scene with the stolen car. Product placement, bright daylight lighting and the weak soundtrack for what is supposed to be a tense moment. Really took me out of the film.
>the mixing for dialogue was weak, but that's standard nowadays. Several scenes would benefit from closed captioning.
>Gillian Anderson must've needed a paycheck.
>The new Dillinger was alright, liked the callback at the end.
>brings up topics and concepts that have huge implications, dismisses them with a line of dialogue and never mentioned again.
>constant fellating of Flynn. Expect frame-by-frame youtube breakdowns of all the references
>the retro scene near the end looked surprisingly good.
>overall, lots of wasted story potential, dcent action scenes, and an unremarkable music score.
>IMO, Legacy was a better film

tl;dr
6/10, it was ok.

Leto was surprisingly solid as Ares. Athena was cool too.
I wasn't a fan of the Encom crew at all, but Eve was the least worst of them all. Although the whole sister dieing young thing felt like such a waste, she could of been uploaded to the grid and lived out her life creating in there or get fixed in there and come back out, fucking something. Too many out of this world ideas for the tech and all they could come up with is 3D printed soldiers and fruit, meh.
No cameo by Sam Flynn or Quora was a letdown, but at least Kevin Flynn had his moment.
Soundtrack slapped thankfully

This guy was trashing the movie before it even came out. It was like he was chomping at the bit to start shitting on it. His reviews only ever go one of two ways. "This is shit and let me tell you all the ways it is shit using the same 6 soundboard bytes" or "I can' believe I'm saying this but it was actually not as shit as I expected". But that is the problem when you lock yourself in to a running gag of a character for your reviews. If you lose the fake drunkenness, the repetition and the cliched takes then you just become another faceless reviewer
