(TEASER TRAILER)
If you are as old as me, you watched the original Tron movie when you were young, and as close to when the movie was first released. If your parents were cool enough, as a child, you watched it, and like most children seeing something sci-fi and cool, this movie was everything. Albeit very dated now, but the ships, the light cycles, red against blue, was there not a green in the original? I cannot remember at all now, but the long and short of it was, it was epic at the time, and we still hold fond memories of the original. Then there was Tron Legacy. The trailers looked amazing at the time, but the film never really delivered. The special effects were ok, but I think we had better around that time, the story was a little weird and bringing back Jeff Bridges and the dodgy effects to make him look younger was awful. However, Ares, that first trailer was pretty good, but this one, this trailer, THIS TRAILER!!! definitely sells this movie for me, as not only does it look epic. The first trailer had my attention, but this trailer fully has my attention. I am getting a sense of AI self-awareness, which is all the rage since, well, maybe the first movie, and we are still talking about it now in real life.
Having Evan Peters explain that they have managed to "harness/create" the AI NPCs, or just an AI, (maybe) to use it/them as soldiers by bringing them from the digital world into the real world and having a specific character named Ares to be the top/best soldier, because he is intelligent, strong, fast, is great and all, but now he wants to be human? Wait, what? Is he trying to break away from his "grouping" to become human? Why is the city being attacked? There are a few sequences in this trailer that look great, RoboCop, Terminator-esque. The Light cycle, the (what I can only explain as) the mechanical wing-propulsion suit, even that big thing we see going past the offices, I thought was called a dreadnaught (I need to rewatchrhe movie). But, the shot at the end is indeed the money shot! All those missiles firing out and moving angular like in a computer game, epic. That first trailer was good, but this one is leagues better. Let's see!
