Sci-Fi Tron: Ares with Jared Leto

Remember the "good guys" still think they can convince the Nazi to give them money.

Or they're all just Nazis.

Mr Beast, Elon Musk, and Jared Leto.

What a crew.

[DarthSkywalker]

Disney being pro-Nazi isn't new. Just look at Walt.

Mr Beast, Elon Musk, and Jared Leto.

What a crew.

Mr. Beast is in it? This is like The Producers or something. It's like they want it to fail.

He's not, I think it was from an MNF cross promo.

He's not, I think it was from an MNF cross promo.

Weird he would do this when Elon is involved. He's trying to come out as anti-AI now.

I was a lot kinder towards Tron Legacy on a rewatch. But frankly, I am surprised reviews are 55% currently. I expected low 40s. But reviews are consistent with what Tron seems to always be: impressive tech and visuals, okay story at best

Probably cause the AI he made keeps calling him a facist

'Tron: Ares' will top the box office in its opening weekend.

$50M is like double what I would have guessed its opening weekend box office would be.

Meanwhile the knowledgeable folks...

 

[Sithborg]

I trust that it can go lower...

I imagine with time, Ares will go down a little more. I think Tron Legacy has aged pretty well, and should get re-examined

 

[DarkKnight88]

I mean. Even the Tron score isn’t correct cause contemporary reviews are mixed in. I’d be more curious to see what it would be with only its 1982 reviews.

I'm a big fan of Legacy. But I also think it isn't a good movie, so I fear a lot of retro reviews would be full of nostalgia.

It depends on what you define as a good movie. Tron Legacy from a stylistic and visual standpoint is awesome. From a script standpoint, it has many issues. I am usually a story comes first guy, which is why I wouldn't call Tron Legacy a GREAT movie. But I think it is a GOOD movie

That's why for movies older than say 2000, I never use RT

They're all contemporary. The oldest on RT is from 2000.

For me, characters always come first. The movie has no characters. Even Qurroa, by far the most memorable part of the film imo, is a wisp of a character.

Closer to the movie then us.

No one saw Tron until 2000.

Like I said, I agree with you from that standpoint. I just think the visual elements are so good that I think it overcomes that and makes it a good movie IMO. I also looks even better than a lot of contemporary films now by a mile, excluding Jeff Bridges deaging effects. The script has been a weak element for both prior Tron films, and reviews would indicate that applies here as well to Ares
