The47th Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'm so sad by this. I liked Legacy, and I thought the "franchise" had a lot to offer. Who knows, maybe they'll revisit the project if they see the potential for new sci fi properties beyond Star Wars. Especially merchandising-wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Good. Tron 2 was rubbish. Pretty sure Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha, Jon Voight, Harvey Keitel, Helen Mirren, Sean Bean, and, of course, Jon Turteltaub would all be more than willing to use half the budget set aside for this and deliver a much more entertaining product. Preach! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimisawesome Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'm disappointed I'm guessing Disney was open to making it but couldn't decide on a reasonable budget It has to be another reason. Its Disney and a large budget Disappointment we are talking about so they where ready to green light at 190 and let budget overruns take it over 240. /jokes jokes.

jimisawesome Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Disney had been interested in adding Jared Leto to the cast, but an offer and negotiations had never commenced. - THR Yeah known Box office legend Jared Leto was the difference between killing it and all the billions in box office and toys. Pretty sure Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha, Jon Voight, Harvey Keitel, Helen Mirren, Sean Bean, and, of course, Jon Turteltaub would all be more than willing to use half the budget set aside for this and deliver a much more entertaining product. Anyone know why this has not happened? They made great money because they where one of the few franchises that you can bring the whole family to.

Nicolas Cage is fabulous in National Treasure 2.

grim22 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Time to say goodbye to the main forum Tron 3 I agree with Kitik. Change the title to something more clear like "Disney cancels production, movie not going ahead" and keep it in the main forum for a couple of days so people know the news at least. Not a fan of the second movie, but give the fans a chance to see the news. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 This forum's continued demand for a third national treasure is straight-up embarrassing. goddamn. with the collective budgets of Tomorrowland, Lone Ranger, and John Carter, they could've made National Treasures 3-7 And it's not like Tron 3 is any better than National Treasure 3 (or Sherlock Holmes 3 for that matter) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACCA Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Wow, I'm SO disappointed! I can't believe Disney did this. Tomorrowland always seemed like a flop, I feel sad it had to affect this. Kosinski has made a couple of visually stunning films, with excellent soundtracks, first working with Daft Punk and M83. For those that don't like the Tron franchise or Legacy, you still cannot deny that visually the film was stunning, and the soundtrack was a great achievement. Purely for another chance to see Daft Punk do the soundtrack, combined with Kosinski's eye for amazing visuals, this should have been gone ahead. So if Disney never goes ahead with this, will they give up the rights for this ever? I wonder if another studio would be willing to greenlight this. I imagine Kosinski is not happy at all with Disney. This move though unfortunately confirms the rumors about Disney; that they've become nothing more than a grotesque marketing/merchandising corporate machine. It's crystal clear now that Disney makes movies only to sell merchandise. Disney it seems could care less about the film itself. If it doesn't sell merchandise, it looks like Disney won't make a film now. What a sad company Disney has become. Over the last few years there has been a gradual decline in quality with a majority of Disney's tentpole films, with only a few exceptions. It doesn't look like Disney will be supporting creativity or originality in the future for films. I'm guessing Brad Bird may jump ship from Disney as well. Granted I think Bird made a mistake in even making Tomorrowland, not to mention partnering with Lindelof, who's become box office poison for most scripts he touches. All in all, what a mess, and what a sad day for film fans. Edited May 30, 2015 by Gonk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
