You are correct, it is a sequel, and it's called officially called TR2N.  I see one movie a year in the theater and this is my movie for 2011.

Oh yeah, and she's in it.  I'm guessing she just showed up in this outfit and they gave her the job.

i just went straight.  ;)

that's retarded. 

official trailer released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJHcyGS9tkI

negatives: based on the dialogue, this film is going to try to take itself seriously.

positives: from 1:10 onwards, we get our first taste of daft punk's score.

as i watched that new trailer, after rereading this thread and everything i wrote prior . . . dammit if that film looks, not half bad.

yeah, I'm trying to not get too excited…but man it looks awesome.

there is an alternate reality game going on with the movie as well, check out http://www.flynnlives.com, after deciphering some of the clues on the site, users were led to this game:

if you find all 50 and log in beforehand, they send you some sort of Encom ID badge.  One of the games before this, people got tron wallets.

I stand by my statement.  It's going to be epic, even if Olivia reamins clothed.

based on that trailers, i'm not convinced that it will be an epic movie.  lots of eye candy, sure - but that dialogue, and the hints at the storyline… <shudder>.

per hipsterrunoff: "Really just want to ?cut the bull shit?, have these mp3s leak, and see if Daft Punk tying their brand to this movie was really worth it. Have a bad feeling that this movie will sort of be the ?Starship Troopers? of the 2k10s. Seems like best case scenario, it ends up being ?The Matrix? of the 2k10s."

soundtrack for Tron: Legacy will be released on Nov 23, according to Amazon

apparently daft punk makes an appearance in the movie - as DJs in a nightclub, inside the computer-world.  their names are listed in the credits on IMDB.  looks like they've dropped the ridiculous "TR2N" moniker.

movie will be released on Dec 17.  will also come out in IMAX 3D.  that should blow a few extra braincells.

do you think three d will go away after people grow bored like they did in the fifties and eighties?  or will the upgrades in technology just keep it going until "virtually" everything looks like what one of my freinds called      it . . . "like you are always the holodeck of the enterprise."  wow, i have a friend who would say that.

leaked.

Me too, but what does that have to do with a shitty electronic act?

if the new tour was sponsored by four loko . . . would you break out your leather, s & m gear?

Breaking out implies that I ever put it away.
Every day I just want to hurt so good.

i listened to the soundtrack.  its much more orchestral than I was expecting.  its mostly boring.

that's what i expect most people will think. 

it is a soundtrack, and they recorded it with a 70-piece orchestra… definitely not a party album.

I wasn't expecting a party album, but I was expecting something more like the blade runner soundtrack.   the track 'The Game Has Changed' is basically what I was expecting the album to be like

We submitted our remix of "The Game Has Changed" to Disney. Not sure what it's going to be used for at this point, but I think it'll be more along the lines of what you were looking for with a "Blade Runner" Soundtrack feel.

I rather enjoyed it driving through the white out I endured on my way to the slopes - made for a perfect adventure.  I hope to enjoy it again and again while sleeping with Olivia Wilde, whether she's there or not.
