Okay, it’s confirmed. I heart Tron about as much as Amanda Talar hearts John Mayer.
So every time a new trailer comes out, as we get closer to the December 17th premiere, I get more and more stoked. Already I’m looking forward to the cutting-edge special effects that actually make Jeff Bridges look 30 years younger (his younger version is the CLU 2.0 character), as well as the upgraded lightcycle battles and the reimagined world of the Grid. Although I wish the directors would have hired Wendy Carlos to score this film (she scored the original Tron movie), I’m starting to appreciate the work that Daft Punk has done in scoring this picture.
Oh heck. Here’s the trailer. Enjoy.
What, that ain’t good enough for you?
How about this…
Here’s a short music video from Daft Punk, with the song “Derezzed,” as performed in Tron: Legacy.
Man oh man oh man I can NOT WAIT for this film to come out!!
That new Solar Sailer is massive.
Actually I don’t think they made the Bridges look younger, I’d say they took his face from the first Tron and mapped it to a 3D model; hey, that’s what I would do 🙂
Fun fact: Daft Punk are huge fans of Tron. The director says somewhere that they approached DP to do the soundtrack and the band pulled a reverse interview on him. It is Daft Punk that quizzed *him* to make sure his vision of the sequel would be worthy of being associated to. They were pretty serious about it being done “right”.
I think it was the best idea to hire Daft Punk for the score. Then again, I’m a total fanboy of both the film and the band.
