[up]Really? I thought of Garret Hedlund as like Hayden Christiansen except a good actor.

[up] Yeah I get that too when I'm looking at a thinner Garret but in his more bulkier look he more stongly reminds me of Christian Bale, plus the gruff voice.

And Hayden Christiansen is SUPPOSED to be good actor, well that's what I hear. I never liked him in Jumper or Star Wars but he was generally resigned to playing whiny assholes.

Know what amazes me?

That Disney could hire Elijah Wood to play the lead main character in their upcoming tie-in animated prequel series.

Well, voiceovers are less time consuming than a full on acting role. And in recent years, animated films are showing more and more big name actors in the cast.

Or maybe he's just a Tron fan.

Plus, we'll get more of Boxleitner as Tron.

Man I can't believe they blew so much money on trying to make Jeff Bridges look younger when it looked pretty much like the effects of FF: Spirits within which I think was in the tropes article.

What they should have done is get Kurt Russel to play Clu, and then use some CGI to make him look younger like they did for Patrick Steward in Xmen 3. Also Kurt Russel is awesome.

The only thing that really bugged me about Clu was the hair, it just didn't work right. He would move his head and the hair just didn't move right.

So I checked up on this on Wikipedia out of curiosity:

On February 28, 2017 during a Q&A session with Joseph Kosinski, he revealed that Tron 3 has not been scrapped, instead saying it was in "cryogenic freeze."[186] A few days later, it was reported that Disney is supposedly looking into rebooting the franchise with Jared Leto attached to portray a new character named Ares, who originated from the Tron 3 script.

What the actual hell.

Why are people paid to make these decisions?

News, everyone!

Tron 3 lives!

Yeah, it's still got Leto involved, but it's looking explicitly like a proper sequel instead of a reboot no one asked for.

We now have a director attached to the next TRON movie: Garth Davis.

For reference, Davis is known for his arthouse films like Mary Magdalene and Lion with the TRON movie being his first big tentpole. Apparently, he actively pursued the gig of directing and won over the executives, so we can only assume he's one of us...

...was kind of hoping that one of those 2020 miracles was happening and we were getting a continuation of Tron, but ok.

And we are getting a sequel. Hurray.

After 28 years, Daft Punk are splitting up...
