Video: Tron Trailers: Evolution And Legacy

Tron could be considered to be as iconic as Super Mario Bros. but in a different way. The original Tron movie debuted courtesy of Disney in 1982 during a time when the video game market was over saturated with gaming consoles and less than desirable software. Before Nintendo breathed life back into the games industry Tron could be considered a last ditch attempt to resuscitate the then fledgling industry. Over the course of a few decades Tron has been represented in a multitude of games, books and a comic book including Tron 2.0, The Art Of Tron, and Tron: The Ghost In The Machine respectively. It looks like Disney has decided that 2010 is the perfect time to breathe new life into the franchise. In 2010 we will get Tron Evolution the game and Tron Legacy the movie. While the game trailer above was posted by Dawdle last week in response to Spike TV's game announcement, seeing it with the movie trailer (after the break) really solidifies the Tron experience and allows for a clearer picture of Disney's modern approach to this classic franchise. Both singe the screen with an impressive showing of slick visuals pierced with trademark incandescent motherboard circuitry. These trailers lack any real hints at story but I have a feeling these titles will be more about action and gameplay than evoking an emotional response from consumers. Clear hints at the classic bike scene from the original movie suggest light cycles will make appearances in both the movie and the game. Hopefully these trailers' sleek images portend movie going and gameplay experiences equally engaging. Both are slated for a Holiday release 2010.
