Thing is most people old enough to remember that film in 1982 also know Tron Legacy is shit and will never buy that film.

Silence! That movie was...okay, it wasn't awesome, but it sure as hell wasn't shit. (I think it most suffers from being an action blockbuster where devotees of the original were expecting more of the quirky, off-beat cult-classic vibe, but it's a solid action blockbuster with some fine performances, and in this age of brainless shaky-cam Michael Bay abortions, that counts for a lot.)

Visually it looks inferior and the story is worse sorry. Olivia Wilde in Lycra is te only reason to watch it! If you never saw Tron then sure you may not have such a negative critique Same as War Games vs remake really.

Hey, I did indeed see the original Tron, and I thoroughly appreciate it for what it is - but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the sequel. (And I didn't say it was as good as or better than the original, but it sure isn't crap.)

Now, the WarGames remake, though...KILL IT WITH FIRE.

Also, if this is indeed a real thing, I guess we know where CUSA's supposedly astronomical marketing budget went...
