I'm a pretty big Tron fan, since I was a kid. But this movie kinda feels like it's just wearing the corpse of Tron around. Legacy was cool, no idea why they wouldn't just continue with that story. And going from Daft Punk to NiN is not winning me over in the slightest, never been into NiN. This doesn't feel like it was made for current fans, and it doesn't feel like it was made to attract new ones either. I haven't seen it yet, highly doubt I will see this one in theaters.
Apprently Disney's goal was "Gen z men" based on various reporting.
Doesn't seem to have took.
Yeah the original Tron was filled with a sense of wonder and spirit, I suppose it was a different time and all that tech was shiny (or rather grey) and new and not being used to oppress people quite yet at least on a massive scale, but it seems like they just went so cliche cyberpunk with it. I've been a fan of NIN since Pretty Hate Machine but tbh their soundtrack work sounds all pretty dark and foreboding and samey.
I guess you have a point. In the very words of the President of the United States of America: "Everything's computer."
