Tron: Legacy Gets a December 17th, 2010 Release Date

Walt Disney Pictures announced today that they have set a December 17th, 2010 release date for the hugely anticipated sequel Tron Legacy. This means that the film will not only be going head-to-head with two holiday animated films in The Smurfs and Yogi Bear, but it will also have to share theater screens with Seth Rogen's comic book adaptation The Green Hornet.

Tron Legacy is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that's unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), looks into his father's disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin's loyal confidant (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous. The film was directed by Joseph Kosinski.

Tron Legacy is set to hit theaters on December 17th, 2010.

Tron: Legacy was released December 17th, 2010 and stars Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Bruce Boxleitner, James Frain, Beau Garrett, Michael Sheen, Anis Cheurfa. The film is directed by Joseph Kosinski.

    Wizeguy, if you don't want people pissing in your punch, don't say something sucks, that someone may potentially like.

    My dad and I always used to watch TRON, and one Christmas he bought me the Collector's Edition, and when I watch it, I think of the times we watched it together. He's been dead four years now.

    You could simply say, "I hate TRON"! You are conveying your absolute distain for it, without insulting anyone else's love of it. When you say, "it sucks", you are bringing it's merits into question, and people take it personally.

    And that's your etiquette lesson for the day kids.

    Tron is not totally awesome Vanboy. And I get the damn concept I just do not like the movie. And this one doesn't look that great either and since I did not like the orginal I am not expecting anything from this.

    Wisegay, TRON is totally awesome! You just don't get the concept, and that's okay. Nobody is judging you. Did you see that trailer for TRON: Legacy? That was mind blowing!

    Lets get the cartoons like Johnny Quest, Captain Planet, Swat Kats, Johnny Bravo, Billy and Mandy up on the silver screen instead of all the classics!

    In case any one is out of the loop or cares to know I have been hacking Delgren's profile and making it sound like he likes to suck dick. He does not like to suck dick, sorry for doing all of this. I don't know what comes over me sometimes.

    Yogi will be number three. The so called "Geek Factor" will help Green Hornet And Tron. Smurfs and Yogi wont get number one. Thats like saying Alvin and the Chipmunks would get number one over Harry Potter of Twilight. Just not gonna happen.

    Seth Rogen should realize that he cant be a main box office attraction star. Two more classic shows are going to get trashed by Hollywood. Leave the classics alone. If Hollywood wants to turn cartoons into live action films then heres an interesting suggestion. Kids Next Door or Ben 10! What do you guys think?

    nnooooooo regardless of what you would WANT to win, this film and Green Hornet going up against 2 major family films unfortunately statistically do not stand a chance of winning the weekend.
