I find, over the years, that modern action films rely more on showing off the latest, fancy, CGI graphics, rather than producing a good, entertaining story line.
I find I quickly lose patience with many of the latest film offerings, and generally switch off, and do something else, (go to sleep)!
The story line, whatever it is? quickly becomes lost in a confusing mass/mess of CGI Graphics just to amuse the Film Director!
As a typical example, I find films like; "The Matrix"... Shocked.... totally confusing, even after my young friends trying to justify, and explain to me, the overly complicated, highly unlikely story line!... Undecided...(there's a recipe for an argument!).... Grin!
I enjoy a good, well written, well directed, simple, easily understandable, entertaining; "story line" to keep me welded to the screen.
The original; "Tron" had a good/excellent story, and well designed computer graphics to match the subject...nothing more to spoil it!
Overly-fancy, film CGI graphics should be relegated to animated cartoons!... Wink...!

Paul...a bit of a critic, regarding some of the latest films!... Wink... Grin...!

I agree Paul, a well written, directed and acted film is worth it everytime.
Hollywood do still do it from time to time, Gladiator was superb and deserved every Oscar it won. I have to say watching Tron get trashed is almost as painful as watching George Lucas's prequels to Star Wars. I mean what is that Jar Jar thing?
I think I'll watch Where Eagles Dare tonight, well acted, well directed and a crackin' story Cool

Do you know this one Mark, Operation Daybreak. A really good WWII film, not many have heard of it.

And People call me immature when I like cartoons Angry.
That's exactly why.
If your going to do a Movie, You might as well get your facts right
E.g In the new(est) green arrow movie they say the service ceiling is 50,000 ft Actually it's 60,000. And anyway even if it did go above the Ceiling it wouldn't stall From what I understand It would just be hard for it to maintain altitude. I may be wrong though Tongue Undecided.
But my mum always says, If you want facts, Read an encyclopaedia. Tv is for entertainment Tongue Tongue Roll Eyes
 

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

I did has a  chance to watch it Over and Over this movie Tron Legacy in HBO ,  and by watching it closely this movie had all the ingredient to become a successful  hit if it wasn't for that Poor/strange/empty story ,I insist Clouds inside this quamtum universe of computers? among many things that shouldn't be the the story ,also the Young Jeff Bridges effects Sucks again the movie looks short because its gets short by a poor tale ,and the new mythology point of view of the new writers

but


the costumes are awesome ,the effects are astonishing and above all the Daft Punk Music very good ,also many exquisite details and ideas of science fiction technology  ..I loved the ISO people Life created by itself in this world its not so bad as I thought you just have to watch it couple times..

its not so bad ,but if they would have the same vision the original had with those todays effects ,I bet by Now there would be Tron 3 ,in production Tron 4 etc

One example of how weird was they spend all the budget making Young Jeff Bridges it didn't went out too well but they omitted all the details the laser disintegration of Sam to integrate him into tron's word  ,and reintegration of Quora to the real world ,I 'd bet people would wanted to see a being from that universe in ours ,they skip everything  Tongue
