Tron Legacy

[Webhead2006]

I am sure the film will make its budget back easily from domestic and worldwide.

 

[dark_b]

its not that simple. if the movie makes 200 worlwide it will not make its budget back.

to make a profit it needs to ''wooow'' people.

i wonder when will studio realize that having to many movies in one month is bad for them and not for us.

AintItCoolNews Review

Whether you dig the story or not, even the naysayers are going to be blown away by the visuals of the film. The aerial number that takes place on the race to the I/O tower… I think another 5 viewings are in line, just to attempt to process what I was seeing. It’s visually beyond stunning.

FYI I bought my IMAX tickets and im looking at some of the theaters and they are starting to sell out

 

[dark_b]

i am really interested in the story now. with 3 trailers they spoiiled the whole story to us.

what did some expect? Inception ?

 

[terry78]

Exactly how are there spoilers? Most people can look at a commercial and tell what the plot is. If there is some twists along the way, whatever.

So it turns out a classmate from a car/product design class I took a few years ago worked on the helmets on TRON.

His website says the CLU helmet was very high concept:

If you notice the triangle window on the face above the orange "V". This was the only open space used for viewing which held a miniature color camera which transmitted via cable to small video monitor glasses worn by the actor inside the helmet. This, with the array of lights, ventilation fans and regulated battery power supply proved challenging to fit comfortably inside the limited space.

All helmets lighting operate on remote radio control.

He's a cool guy and I'm glad he's doing cool stuff.

Glad the film seemed good. But the review itself wasnt that good. It mosty was just a nerdgasm

^I’m not sure how M. Night Shyamalan still gets hired to make bad movies.

Or Uwe Boll. He's probably blackmailing some poor dude for financing.

 

[Avengers-Report]

How many reviews are out? I really want to read some opinions about the film.

[jesusmagicka]

pretty much confirming what i thought, first time director and all...

 

[ALP]

I'm surprised this movie is tracking as low as it is. It's being promoted a lot, I expected it to do massive numbers.

I'm finally looking forward to a 3D live action film I can enjoy since Avatar. Only other one I saw was Alice and it was bloody awful.

 

[Webhead2006]

i think it will be fine, heck i dont bother with most critics myself.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

From what I have read,the criticism doesn't sound like too much of a problem. It sounds as if there are more pros than cons.

Tracking doesn't mean much alot of the time. I still think that it's going to underperform boxoffice wise but not because tracking said so and not because it is a bad movie. People see and love bad movies all of the time. Again, I could be wrong but thats what I think.

So far Ive read 2 good, 2 bad/meh

 

[Webhead2006]

I still don't care for critics myself, I am going to see it still and judge it for myself once I see it.

 

[rashad]

^True, but there's nothing wrong with reading varying opinions.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

^True, but there's nothing wrong with reading varying opinions.

Personally, I try to read reviews after I've seen the film for myself because I don't want to be influenced by a prejudice I've built on the film from critics. My process to really determining whether or not I like a film is:

1. First Viewing
2. Read Reviews
3. Second Viewing
4. Look at more reviews

By this third viewing I have a definite idea of how i feel.

I have a sneaking suspicion Ebert is going to hook this up with four stars. He digs this type of thing.
