The trailer for this looked cool. I've never seen the original. Every time I try to watch it I end up wanting to throw stuff at my TV at around the 12-15 min mark. I'll try to get through it for the new one, lol

Great news! I loved Boxleitner's performance so much that I followed his career for years to come. I also discovered David Warner there.

Peter Jurasik also had a small role as a program in that movie:

Bruce had already reprised the character through VO work on the TRON 2.0 video game and in the mega-hit video game Kingdom Hearts.

I saw that TR2N bootleg teaser trailer featuring Jeff Bridges on YouTube and yes, it did look extremely cool.

After watching that Tron Legacy teaser clip, I can honestly say that a small res clip has never looked or SOUNDED as good on my computer as that one did. Sure beats YouTube.

"Tron Legacy", the highly anticipated follow-up to the 80's sci-fi classic "Tron", has been set for a December 17th 2010 release through Disney Pictures.

In the Joseph Kosinski-helmed 3D adventure, Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), looks into his father's disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years.

Along with Kevin's loyal confidant (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous. Bruce Boxleitner, James Frain, Beau Garrett and Michael Sheen also star.

Word is Disney is so happy about the early buzz and interest for the Tron movie, that there are plans to make atleast a trilogy of films, and a CGI-animated TV show. They're hoping it'll be a franchise similar in size to Pirates of the Caribbean. Of course all this depending on Legacy doing a killing at the box office. There will also be various Tron attractions coming to the Disney theme parks.

The trailer should be out this weekend with Alice in Wonderland.

... there are plans to make atleast a trilogy of films ... They're hoping it'll be a franchise similar in size to Pirates of the Caribbean.

Well, then let's just hope that part 2 and 3 of that TRON trilogy don't suck the way those of PotC did.

I haven't seen the first tron since i was a kid. I'll have to go watch it.

While waiting for the trailer, here are some stills.
