So glad you...HOW HAVE I NOT RESPONDED TO THIS YET.<br /><br />So glad you commented, and it's great to see a fresh perspective on these movies! Super awesome all around. :DFlashman85https://www.blogger.com/profile/05803594092301739957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-375462896069663031.post-20296604551689739222011-01-18T08:37:48.725-05:002011-01-18T08:37:48.725-05:00This is my first posting, and yet I feel like I kn...This is my first posting, and yet I feel like I know the two primary hosts.. almost like sons! Those that know this writer know that I don't write and yet this past Saturday I was able to escape into the movie theater and take in TRON Legacy via IMAX and upon reading the first posting on this subject I felt that it needed a response. Yes this response will not be as witty, insightful or spelled as correctly, but reading the original post by a youngster who happens to select the original TRON as the winner warranted a response. I agree that TRON had its slow parts and I also agree that the directors of the time were setting the stage for the technology. Take it from someone who saw TRON on the really big screen.. not those little ones they have today (IMAX excluded) or that little TV screen that the original posty saw TRON on, the ORIGINAL TRON, was the film of the day. All futuristic, cool and AMAZING. However, it's not better than TRON Legacy! I must admit I have never responded in a BLOG or posted a comment rebuttal online, as I don't see a lot worth my time or energy. I understand that some people consider it FUN! Sorry, to anyone if you're actually reading this! Anyway, I felt moved to respond to the amateur review of the two TRONs and even though I loved the 1982 TRON..TRON Legacy BLOWS IT AWAY! That’s right someone who is older than the two hosts of this site together, has seen both on the BIG screen and TRON Legacy wins. First the 3D was really good! Until I see holograms it'll only be good 3D.. but I was really surprised at the quality. The depth of field was the difference.. not to mention seeing it in IMAX was cool as well, I was at the POV level for the characters. The glasses almost covered my large head and didn't keep falling off.. Yes I remember the first 3D glasses ever used at a movie theater.. Told you I was old! Anyway, I love movies that suck me in and I want them too.. let them earn their money! I loved the cross movie connections, there were MANY little elements that helped me to buy into the new movie and the replacements. I also was impressed by the CGI.. of course it should have been easy to beat the CGI of the early 80's, but they did a remarkable job, what I saw back then came to life now! If you want the real comparison, then watch them both! But if you want to enjoy a movie on its own that just happens to be a sequel.. TRON legacy will stand on its own. Please understand that unlike most of you.. if anyone is reading this.. readers I am old and perhaps my eyes are not as good or my reaction times are slowing.. but TRON Legacy is really a great movie and deserves being seen on the big screen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
