New Tron Trailer

Everything old is new again.

In anticipation of Tron: Legacy, a fan created this new trailer for the original Tron (1982), with a more modern look and feel. He did a fantastic job. Really great.

He said:

Wanted to make a exciting trailer with a modern feel as oppose to its original marketing in the 80s. I hope people will give this movie a try before they see Tron Legacy. Sure its dated but there was practically nothing like it in the day, especially 1982.

Mission accomplished, dude. I already own the movie and that makes me want to go out and buy it again.

In comparison, here is the trailer that came out in 1982:

Just not as engaging. Still, trailers weren’t all that great back then to begin with.

Nowadays, trailers are an art form of their own. There are some really good ones in my previous 2010 movie post. The Tron: Legacy and Prince of Persia trailers are both really good examples.

Anyway… I’m with the fan who created that trailer: go rent or buy the original Tron before going to see Legacy. It’ll be worth it.

And after you watch it, go listen to me and a couple of foreigners talk about it.
