I went to see "TRON: Legacy" because it was one of those rare, rare contenders that sold me on the previews alone. (Seriously...I had little idea of what to expect, but I knew it looked pretty and tech-y.) It was cliche in a whole bunch of ways, but really kind of AWESOME and 1980s with technology and modern design -- definitely my kind of thing. I'm pleased that my assessment was accurate. :) (Digimon fans might enjoy some setting/story elements. lol.)
1982's original TRON is....(drumroll please)....OUT OF PRINT and not available on DVD. Is Disney serious, here?? What? Really?? The new one isn't even a REMAKE; it's a bona-fide SEQUEL. I'm gonna die laughing. I guess I'll have to take the film hero's own advice ("Information should be free to all users") and keep laughing all the way to the torrent sites.
