Disney Remaking Tron

[GarrettCRW]

Although...and this is slightly off topic; I had heard that Disney, sometime soon, was going to release all their World War II propaganda films on DVD (Go to www.encyclopedia-obscura.com and read up if you have no idea what I'm talking about). That would take some serious nads, and if they did do that, I would commend them for it.

They already did that last year-On the Front Lines was released in May along with Mickey Mouse in Living Color Vol. 2, Tomorrowland, and The Chronological Donald, Vol. 2. And yes, it included "Education For Death" and "Der Fuehrer's Face" uncut.

I can see Disney doing this. They've already raped most of their classics with those abysmal direct-to-video sequels. Blech.

Disney has been sucking over the last, oh, 20 years or so, haven't they?

And that's roughly how long Eisner has been in control, you see. (Of course, it was down to $2 a share when he came in.)

[GarrettCRW]

The beginning of Disney's current era of suck is 1994, when Frank Wells died. Suffice to say, he was the one who kept Eisner from going over the deep end.

Flynn: Brad Pitt
Tron: Tobey Maguire
Sark: David Warner (why not?)
Yori: Angelina Joline
Dumont: Jeff Goldblum
Ram: Dave Chappelle

Okay, maybe not. What are your predictions/picks?

I'm ok with everyone, except for angelina jolie. She has something that i just don't like. Hell i'd prefer martha stewart in it (has horrible as that sounds).

I thought The Matrix WAS the sequel to Tron....I've been misinformed...hmmmm

ditto, except that I heard that the Matrix was the remake of Tron.

Remake? No, not a good idea. But a continuation of the original or a plot that acknowledges events that occurred in the original Tron? THAT would be cool. I don't want to see them "re-imagine" Tron. But it would be cool to see what the cyberworld has become since 1983.

"There was another User who arrived here Eons ago - Flynn was his name."

Even a line like that would help bridge the film from past to present.

Id much rather see a remake. I dont want Tron 2 to ruin Tron 1 the way T-3 ruined T-2. They did such a terrible job ending the story, I really dont want that to happen with Tron. I dont know how many times Ive said "I wish they never even made T-3." At least if they remake the first one, I can ignore it if it sucks.
