The 11 dumbest things about Tron Legacy

The 11 dumbest things about Tron Legacy
I didn't hate Tron Legacy upon first seeing it - I'm a movie magpie, constantly awed by bright and shiny things - but the more I think about it in retrospect, the more I realise I had been witness to a truly epic logic fail: a spazzy cinematic Hindenberg going down in neon flames. Behold: the most ridiculous aspects of the most ridiculous film of 2010.

Not to Mention Castor being thick as a brick (Cute though, Michael Sheen rocks!) to be duped by Clu so easily. (At first I thought Castor would make off with the disc, and in the end come clean and to the rescue) …

And I reckon Castor would have had a jet stick or two to escape in an emergency. "Is that a jet stick in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?"

It was also stupid and really annoying how they didn’t go deeper into Castor’s character - seeing how hurt he was, given his past - He would have seen the Iso's mercilessly eradicated (when he gave his all to help save them) - what that would have done to Castor emotionally and now he's only out for number one, he's lost all senses of loyalty and direction and drowning himself in the program equivalent of booze. Poor guy.

The stupidest thing about "Tron Legacy" was how they wasted such a cool and complex (and cute ;) character. Perhaps in the sequel he can come back (after having escaped) and there can be a more in-depth character driven story about him. If not, I’ll have some of what Castor’s having and write him a damn good fanfic.

Salute & Ciao!

Here's the best Tron: Legacy review on the grid.

It's long, but it's hilarious and covers just about everything wrong with the grid in 2010.

Oh we've ragged on Ali about that loads in the past.
He also thought Transformers 2 was a 4* movie. Bwahaha.

You haven't seen... the original?

Anyway, pretty sure he swapped sides because that was the first time he'd seen Flynn since he was changed, and that somehow reminded/rebooted him? Not as epic as Vader turning on the emperor...

I did think about doing something on Tron, but not having seen the original, I wasn't really sure of his origins or intent. Did seem a bit convenient for him just to swap sides though.

No mention of the lack of screen time for Tron and his sudden change back at the end? Then the nod at the sequel which just made people think he was about to show up again at the end to save the day?

Man, that was vicious, and yet you didn't give Transformers 2 the same treatment.
