Oops! I didn't realize you had posted this already, User Hastin! I was so excited about the news, I went straight to "General Discussion" and posted it right away. Wasn't trying to steal your thunder.

Hopefully, this pans out and we have more to talk about in the near future.

This is exciting news, but I'm firmly in the "believe it when I see it" camp. Until we hear it's gone into production, and we start seeing previews, I won't hold my breath.

Also, I'm wondering about the two writers who have been assigned to write the screenplay. Are they going to take Steven's sequel story and work with it, or write something completely from scratch? Questions, questions.

And if the film does pan out, then Disney Interactive will have to make another Tron game, whether they like it or not. Ha!

If anything, it will be a remake. I mean, how many Hollywood movie sequels do you know have been made to much fanfare when the original was a flop? I hope nothing comes of it, to be honest. All Hollywood seems to do at the moment is churn out prequels, sequels and remakes.

Long live Tron 1982!

Red5, you really are the eternal pessimist.

And it can't be a remake if it's "the next chapter" in the story of Tron. Hell, right at the top of the article: the subtitle is "Kosinski will program Disney sequel". Or did you miss that?

I agree, as good as this sounds I'll believe it when its actually in production. I mean how many times were they going to make a Spiderman movie until one got finally released?

I really hope this is true and I hope that it is good. A remake might not work as well as many people think, because all of us Tron fans here will forever comapire it to the original and pull it all to pieces. The best thing would to be create a sequal to the movie. 20 years have passed and computers have changed to much. Programs get updated and rewritten so that can explain why Tron could be a Different actor if Bruce B doesnt want to do it. However if it IS a sequal will it follow the original planned sequal as TronFAQ said. AND will it include the continued story of Tron 2.0 ????

How cool can even a sequel be in these days of pristine computer graphics? Even if they use the same "sets" and scenes the first film, it wont have the same feel to it. Unless they take pains to try and evoke that same feeling by mimicking the graphics from the first one.

Worst case scenario:

The entire movie takes place in the REAL WORLD!

Lisberger is a co-producer and Dave didn't know? And with this news coming right after the announcement that Lisberger is working on something else?

I'm very skeptical about the veracity of this information.

Seconded.

Wait, what? O_o

I feel like I missed something, need more information on this. :U
