For an old man Freeman manages to look surprisingly BAD ASS in that trailer.

Tron Legacy is pretty damn entertaining, the bluray looks and sounds incredible, Daft Punk made that movie

Agree 100% FWIW, while Avatar was a better movie overall, I had a much bigger blast watching Tron:Legacy in IMAX due mostly to that cool score playing in all its glory.

I assume someone's made the WALL-E joke at this point? I'm not much of a fan of Cruise, but he does tend to hook up with interesting directors. I wasn't a huge fan of TRON: Legacy, but some of the aesthetics were interesting (apparently Joseph Kosinski was an architectural professor, so there's a kind of symmetry to all of the designs in that film). I'll probably go see it. Story looks humdrum from the trailer though, the usual "last resistance" on post-apocalyptic earth" stuff.

I really like the look of this, though I wasn't a fan of TRON: Legacy either. Chances are I will go see it in the theater, unless it bombs with reviews.
Speaking of trailers I'm sick of seeing -- Every movie I've seen recently has had that damn Hansel & Gretel trailer.

For those of you who live near an IMAX theater, the IMAX release has been formatted in two ways.
For those who live near a 15/70 theater, you'll see the film in 1.33:1.
For those who live near a digital IMAX theater, you'll see the film in 1.78:1 (a la Skyfall).
Kosinski shot the film to take advantage of the multiple aspect ratios and the F65 allows the user to frame in all major aspect ratios. This make sense now as the film has been destined for IMAX since Universal announced the project.

So is this movie going to be a hit? Didn't realize it comes out next week already.

I think it'll be "lukewarm", I didn't know it was due out next week either.
Movie companies really need to start advertising on Hulu Plus, because the only thing I miss from regular TV is occasional movie ads.

Doesn't sci-fi usually do pretty well, whether it's good or not, just because there is such a large fan base of the genre out there?

Sunshine grossed $3.7m during it's full run in the US.
Lockout pulled $14.3m
In Time pulled $37.5m
Babylon A.D. did $22.5m
Children of Men did $35m
Ultraviolet $18m
Aeon Flux $25m
The Island $35.8m
Serenity pulled $25.5m
Tent pole Sci-fi does pretty well though (Star Trek, Star Wars, (I guess they fit here) Comic Book Movies, etc; ), but coming out with something that doesn't have a big following is tough.
