For reference, this is lower than the opening weekend of Morbius.

That's... bad

I'm a huge Tron fanboy but I mean it's always a surprise when they bring the franchise back. Lets face it the first two films flopped, the tv series was cancelled, the games never sold well and they were all great.

but I mean setting the film in the real world simply because of the ending of the last movie wasn't it. they COULD have had Quorra and Sam in it to see how it's working out for them but instaed you just a couple of pictures of them both. that's it. in the last film you literally have the revelation that Rinzler is Tron and then in this film, called Tron Ares, there's no Tron what so ever.

Legacy set up a third film beautifully and the writer/director for Ares was all "we're not having that". How do you have a Tron movie without Tron. why even call it Tron?
