    It’s been fun to learn that Disney didn’t really want this film, and Jered Leto basically willed it into existence.

    He must have kompromat on somebody.

      Disney should’ve kept the momentum running after Legacy. They had a good thing going with Uprising before the MBA’s and their egos just had to come and ruin it. waltuh

        I can’t believe they dumped all the characters from Legacy and left the fates of everyone including Tron open. There was actual hype for the franchise after that and it sold well on DVD and Blu-Ray back when people still bought those. Disney weren’t happy with it Legacy being only a moderate success, joke’s on them because Jared LeTron looks like it’s going to be the new John Carter.

          They even addressed criticisms of Legacy in Uprising. Characters got proper development and the plot was well done.The soundtrack was a banger and the art style was amazing.

          As much as I love Tron, I just can’t get reinvested into it because Disney will shelve it again if it didn’t make 5000 Tronillion Dollars in one night and I hate Jared Leto.
