In theaters Friday October 10. That's less than 3 months away. Who's in?
Lightcycles!
- Thread starter Lightcycle
- Start date
Went on Cheap Tuesday to see this.
Did I enjoy this movie?
Yes. Very much so! The visuals were spectacular and NiN soundtrack was a perfect complement. Ducati continues their partnership with the Tron franchise, but most intriguing of all... a Hypermotard snowbike!!!
They didn't hide the fact that it was filmed in Vancouver at all. Lots of recognizable landmarks and street signs. Lightcycle Akira-slide thrown in as a deep-cut for the manga fan boys.
Was it a good movie?
Oh god, absolutely not. Cringe dialogue and flimsy plot. After watching this movie, not sure why Gillian Anderson's character was even in it? Seemed like there was a whole plot point surrounding her cut out of the movie...
Overall, not better or worse than any of its predecessors.
If you are Tron fan, you most definitely need to go see it on a very large screen with a very loud sound system.
If you are not a Tron fan, you will not like this movie. At all.

Thanks I almost went over the weekend but think I'll just stream it. Headphones and 34" of curved bliss will suffice.Went on Cheap Tuesday to see this.

Lots of movies bombed at the theater, only to become classics. Kind of like the Hawk GT.

Now I kind of want to watch Idiocracy, and rewatch Office Space.

Ranked: The 10 Most Beloved Movies That Tanked at the Box Office
There are many reasons a movie could flop at the box office. Poor or insufficient marketing, the release date, competition at the theaters, lack of star power, unfavorable reviews, etc.

Martin Scorsese, Paul Thomas Anderson, and Quentin Tarantino have all flopped at the box office at least once in their careers.

I love "Idiocracy" (Disney+) it's silly and fun. I'm still amazed at the brand names/marketing they were able to get rights too.
Fun fact Crocks are the footwear of the future because everyone in the movie is wearing them because the costume designer had a limited budget and because they thought they were too ugly to ever become popular in real life.

Remember Brawndo, its got what plants crave. It's got electrolytes.

Everyone in 'Idiocracy' Wears Crocs Because They Were 'Horrible' and Cheap?
The movie was filmed in 2004, two years before the controversial foam based footwear product took over the world.

In the same year that Tron came out, there was another movie in the theatres which had a production cost of $33MM. By the end of its theatrical run, it made $39MM worldwide, but failed to turn a profit after marketing costs were factored in.
By every metric, it was a box office flop.
That movie was Blade Runner.
TIL Jared Leto is playing Skeletor in the new Masters of the Universe movie due out next year.
