FIRST TIME WATCHING *Tron:Legacy* 

For 2010 the CGI in this was absolutely mind-blowing, and combined with the Daft Punk soundtrack it made it an awesome audiovisual experience.

This movie was way ahead of its time!

Dude. Went to see this in theaters when 3D was all the rage. It was normal 2D until Sam went into the grid then it went full on 3D. It took a while to pick my jaw up off the floor.

Tron Legacy is a sequel to the original Tron. It's not a remake.

TRON ended up having a bigger impact on me than I thought: Liked this movie, loved TRON: UPRISING, and loved those Disney Unity games of them. The soundtracks for this movie and the show were great, too

Didn’t think you’d watch this! One of the favorite childhood films, even if people don’t like it.

This has to be one of my favourite soundtracks. I listen to it regularly.

The whole vibe of cyber synth aesthetics and Daft freaking Punk rolling the score and cameo as well, no other film even came close to it when it came out -and still to this day nothing has really taken as much of a dig into this atmosphere. The story itself may be a little rough around the edges hence why it didn't score highest critics, but the feel of the movie is true icon status.

Can’t believe you didn’t watch the original!!!! 80% of your questions would have been explained bro. For 80’s kids the first was insane!! And I played the tron video game at the arcade all the time.

Why exactly did people hate about Tron Legacy? I think its definitely a gem and loved the aesthetics. I just thibk some people have bad taste.

fun fact daft punk composed this whole film and won awards for it, truly an incredible soundtrack

You don't need to watch the original to understand the sequel, but it does add lore and context. The og and the sequel were both way ahead of time at release in terms of tech and visuals. Tron was a huge inspiration to pretty much any and everything CGI releated that followed

22:49 R.I.P. Daft Punk. Thank you for giving us one of the best movie soundtracks in this Tron sequel. I'm so glad you've watched this movie, Seb. Tron Legacy is one of my favorite sci-fi films.

As someone who was totally familiar with the 1982 movie TRON - this was an absolutely fantastic sequel. I've no idea why anyone could think this was bad. It's hugely entertaining, visually spectacular even to this day, and the soundtrack is legendary. What do people want? Anyway, seems like you had fun, you might have understood the story a little more had you seen the original TRON from 1982.

this movie is a hidden gem

To be fair, it wasn’t for those “failed” de aging attempts like in here and Rogue One, we wouldn’t be where we are like with the Irishman. The first ones through the wall…they always get bloodied.

This movie deserves more recognition! Way ahead of its time.

Tron Legacy is one of those movies that immerse you and make you feel like you on another planet. That soundtrack slaps 🔥

Imagine being 11 when this dropped i grew up on the 80s version thanks to my dad. Ao when this dropped i was blown away 😭. I still remember playing a pvp light cycle game on roblox that was actually fun .

This soundtrack is goated. End of Line has to be the hardest synth vibe ever concocted. This needs to be made into a video game with 3 sections - disc battle, lightcycles and the flyers with turrets; why hasnt someone made this game?! I'm sure it would sell - all 3 modes are inherently online pvp ready-made!

Best Tron there is. The animated Tron uprising is pretty good. Just wish they made another.

Tron Legacy is a film that I have liked since I was little because when I was an adult and saw this film again I was very sad seeing all the scenes from loss and to very deep sadness. Moreover, the music also made me really Goosebumps.

That first scene is 100% CGI of his father Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges)... because that's how young he was in 1989 when he did the first movie, and got trapped in the grid..... It's the same actor in this movie, but only 20+ years older. You don't really NEED to watch the first movie to get this one... that first scene, and the few sprinkled into this one about the past, kinda sums up all you really need to know to follow the story and this movie.... but this is not a remake, it's a sequel.... done the right way after 20 years has passed. lol.

4:30 He didn't actually commit any crimes. He's the majority shareholder, and therefore what he took was his own property. He also technically owns the building as well.

I did the math. Based on the assumption that one Grid hour equals 1 real minute, dad Flynn was trapped in the Grid for about 1200 years

Not to sound dramatic, but this movie literally transported me to this world when I went to go see it in the theaters. I couldn't stop thinking about Tron and its universe well after the seeing it and to this day it's still one of my favorite films. Also went to see it with my family and they just thought it was alright lol.

This movie came out on a December. I remember right before Christmas break a girl from school gifted me The complete soundtrack on CD that was released at the same time as the movie. We both loved the soundtrack and she knew how much I especially loved it. It was the most thoughtful gift I never received from any peer at that time. Looking back she probably had a huge crush on me but I was too much of a dumb teen to realize haha. I still think of her for a moment whenever I listen through the soundtrack 😊

I don’t know why this didn’t do well in theaters , I’ve always LOVED it and still today the CGI and music is epic! LOVE IT!

30:56 "It's like Captain America." Funny story about that. My Spouse is a big fan of Bruce Boxleitner, who played Alan & Tron in the original and Alan in this one. Right after this movie came out, we found out that he was going to be one of the guests at DragonCon, a big Every-Fandom convention held in Atlanta, GA USA over the US's Labor Day Holiday weekend every year. Sort of the US Southeast's answer to San Diego Comic-Con, but with less media marketing dollars, and a lot more alcohol. Now, Tron was not Boxleitner's only big role, as he was also the lead actor on Seasons 2-5 of Babylon 5, was on a spy-thriller series called Scarecrow and Mrs. King, and stared in a few Western movies, and so over the five days of the convention he had a lot of different activities where he was interacting with the convention goers, and my Spouse made it a priority to catch every single one. Day One: Attended his panel on Babylon 5, sitting close to the front. Day Two: scheduled Celebrity Photo-op where Bruce posed with the fans one at a time with my Spouse in their Tron Legacy inspired Original Character Cosplay. Day Three: Visited his Autograph Table on the Walk of Fame, to get him to sign the photo from the day before. Because my Spouse had on entirely different cosplay that day, he didn't realize at first that it was the same person as the photo. Also got autographs on two Tron Legacy Disc toys, and a cowboy novel he'd written that we'd found in a used bookstore. He was flabbergasted to even see it, and didn't think it was even still in circulation. Spouse also had made him a customized, one-of-a-kind My Little Pony doll, done up in Tron Legacy style and gave it to him at the autograph table. He leaned over to the table next to him and teased his Babylon 5 co-star Mira Furlan with "I was given a pony! You don't have a pony!" Day Four: Another panel, this one trying to hype up some steampunk show idea he was trying to get off the ground called "Lantern City". Again, we got close to the front. This panel also had some swag give-aways, as everyone who attended got promotional keychains and an autographed Lantern City Poster. As we come up to claim our posters, he recognized my Spouse with "Oh, it's you again!" even though they were in their third different cosplay of the convention. Day Five: Mondays are a slow day for DragonCon. Usually everyone is packing up to go back to the real world. We had exactly zero Boxleitner plans that day. But because of some last minute cancellations we'd managed to score a room on the "Executive Level" of one of the convention hotels. And unlike most of the hotel, this came with free breakfast in the executive lounge. We're there fueling up for the final drive home after checking out. My Spouse had packed up all the cosplays and was just in a blue t-shirt with the Captain America shield on it. Just as we're finishing up, we hear someone behind us walking up and asking "So who are you supposed to be today?" It was Bruce, who apparently also had a room on the Executive Level. My Spouse peeped up with "I'm just me!" and he offered for us to get some phone selfies with him. It wasn't until a few weeks after DragonCon, when my Spouse was looking up videos of the other conventions Boxleitner had attended earlier that year, including one where the con organizers had arranged for a birthday cake for him because he'd come to be a convention guest on his birthday. In that video of him getting the cake, he has on the exact same light blue Captain America t-shirt. I mean it makes sense that the guy who played a character known for throwing a round object to defeat the bad guys and then it boomerang reflects back to be caught would be a fan of another character with that same gimmick, but my Spouse had no idea. We're pretty sure that after seeing us every other day of the convention, when he saw my Spouse wearing the same shirt he'd worn on his birthday, that's why he decided to come say hi.

I loved this movie so much when it came out can't count how many times I've watched it lol. The music, the concept, the actors, the cinematography just everything was amazing. Many years ago i had a dream that had the bikes and the ones that fly but it was in our world and I used both of them and it's one of the best dreams I've ever had in my life ❤

I love this movie so much. Despite being much more into arthouse stuff like Bergman and Żuławski, this movie is somehow my holy grail of cinema. The pure blockbuster experience.

I haven’t clicked on a Seb video faster than when he did the first transformers

FINALLY😭 prayed for days like this

If you listen in the bedroom scene in the beginning Flynn said "I made a program in my image".

“Stop glazing bro”🤣

My brother and I loved this movie when we were kids. At one of our birthdays we had a cake in the shape of a light cycle.

I drove 140miles to see this in imax before it was released and was soo worth it!

29:00 the person who is playing Rinzler is Anis Cheurfa, a stunt performer. He was actually snake eyes in the new movie back in 2021.

“SEBASTIAN, FINISH THE MAZE RUNNER TRILOGY NOW” we all say in unison

This movie deserves a sequel with Garrett Hedlund and Olivia Wilde. Too bad Disney didn't think so. So of course they are making a sequel without any of the old cast, writers or directors lol. And with Jared Leto as the lead.

One of my favorite movies. The style and music are phenomenal.

this movie was definitely ahead of its time. it Failed so hard and Bombed at the Box Office, everyone hated it because it wasnt the original but now theres people who dont even care about the original who just see this one and love it for what it is. its a good film, just underappreciated.

That song and that scene at 21:48 did exactly the same thing to me.

i remember this film, the soundtrack is an absolute masterpiece, DAFT PUNK switch between eletro and full instruemental

I had no idea this was even on your radar! I love this film so much, love that you reacted to it!!!

Top 10 Movies That Seb Has To Watch: 1) Coralline 2) The Hunchback Of Notre Dame 3) Planet 51 4) Warcraft (2016) 5) Oppenheimer 6) Jurassic Park III 7) Hacksaw Ridge 8) The Terminator 9) RoboCop 10) Surfs Up

Can't believe you'd not seen this one already. Such a good score from DP! Both the original soundtrack and reconfigured version are amazing btw

Been waiting for what seems like an eon for ya to get to this. Was not disappointed. Loved your enthusiasm and unabashed glee!

This was my childhood favorite! I hope Tron Ares is good!

Tron legacy has been and probably will always be my favourite film

The film's director Joseph Kosinski is getting a bit of a reputation as a master of legacy sequels.

So glad you watched this :D such an underrated movie that never got a much deserved sequel.

Grew up watching both and love them but love this one more as you can see why and love the scene when Tron remembers and am still waiting for the 3rd one to get made someday

I have seen this movie 7 years ago and it is still as good as i remember

Did you guys know the guy who directed this directed Top Gun: Maverick.

LOVE this movie, and the original! The original was insanely influential

One of the most underrated movies of all time - if this came out nowish, with modern CGI, it'd be called a masterpiece and Garrett Headlund would have become a megastar

This soundtrack just transports you to another world. It’s the perfect fusion of techno-futuristic and orchestral. Just absolutely beautiful in every way imaginable. Still get chills everytime I hear it. And emotional with the track Father & Son. Overall it’s just amazing. Also helps that this is one of my favourite sci-fi movies.

I remember coming to the US after a vacation in Mexico (im from México) but found out Tron Legacy was rentable in something called RedBox and we watched it but i fell asleep 😂 and i remember rewatching it like 2 years later and ever since ive loved it especially daft punk

Clu's motive is that the Grid isn't enough. It's not infinite. It has "ends" to it. Also, Clu now knows there's an entire endless universe beyond the Grid, and that it ultimately has control over the Grid. So, he wants out. He wants out so that he's not helpless on the Grid, as our universe does whatever it wants that might endanger his entire reality while he's powerless to stop it. He also wants a reality without boundaries. The only way to truly save the Grid, for Clu...is to leave it.

I love daft punk soo much

The philosophy of TRON is: How would the world in the computer look like? Will the programs look like their owners or their designer? Much of these would have been answered if you'd watched the first.. which looks vastly different, but it started the neo glow trend.

Favorite movie of all time! So happy Seb got around to this one. Daft Punk went absolutely fucking INSANE on the soundtrack and the visuals are some of the best you’ll ever see in a film. Truly one of the most under appreciated movies ever

Let’s f@king go !!! I recommended this movie to you a while back so glad to see you’re watching it :)

For the record, Flynn actually CAN do absolutely anything in the Grid, in terms of his access to all of its code and such. His limitation, is his human brain, and how the computer is emulating it and everything else about him while in the Grid. Sort of like a god with omnipotence...but NOT omniscience. He can only do what he knows HOW to do. He can't simply will anything he wants into being, or such. His powers are limited explicitly by his ability to comprehend the coding of any given feature of the Grid. Which, while he wrote almost all of it, is quite extensive...it's not absolute. Even after a thousand "years" in that place. He's still only human.

One of the only movies that I rewatch again and again, tirelessly.

Really ahead of the time! My family went to watch this movie in theaters when it came out because my little brother liked movies about cars and we thought he would enjoy himself and obviously didn't disappoint 😂

"CHANGE THE SCHEME! ALTER THE MOOD! ELECTRIFY THE BOYS AND GIRLS IF YOU'D BE *SO* KIND." Still use this quote at work in the casino every time someone opens or closes a box on blackjack ir poker. 😊

Everyone who has ever seen this movie, would like to be in a Tron themed club/amusement park, the sheer colors would slap 👏 and take cool pics with the light Bikes!

I watched this move in Disney World when it came out in one of their really nice theaters and It was crazy. The music was so loud the bass was shaking us.

This movie and Ghostrunner (the videogame) gave me the most goosebumps when I listened to their soundtracks

This movie is absolutely amazing. I wish there was a Tron 2

Sometimes I just listen to these soundtracks on repeat. Thank goodness Daft Punk released the complete edition.

You need to see this in 3D!!!!

Bro i cant believe he didnt even watch the ending... cora aeeing the sun for the first time is such a great way to close the movie and he didnt even see it or he did and didnt show it or say anythi g about it....

watched it when i was a kid at imax & in 3d, became one of my favourite films and still to date there were rumours shortly after tron legacy released that there would be a 3rd… had a quick search and there’s set to be one next year !! after so long 🤧🤧

Watched it in 3D.. probably one of my first 3D movies i ever saw. and it was spectacular!

This is one of my favourites, the soundtrack alone is amazing, and then the visuals…wow.

Tron is an absolute amazing movie, I can’t get over the neon lights vibe and concept of going into a games ecosystem.

Yooooooo never thought you'd see this!

still remember watching this in the cinema, it was mind-blowing at the time

I have a confession. When I heard our boy point & say "we have...a USER." I immediately thought of someone attending their first AA meeting getting just called the eff out. More people might actually go if they did. Who knows. As long as they have the same cadence as the guy.

THANK YOU SEB. This is my favorite movie of all time and is severely underrated by people who can’t look past Clue’s (the fake version of the dad) cgi. Also yes Daft Punk did the whole soundtrack including the more orchestral songs for this movie. I am glad you could enjoy he film so much.

Appreciate you finally watching this seb. Awesome reaction and video and it was so my favourite movie you made my day Seb. Shoutout to you a true goat

Any else notice Cillian Murphy (peaky blinders main guy) was Edward Dillinger

Thank you… just thank you. My favorite RU-vidr lol. Watching my all time favorite movie. When I saw that this was coming to YT from the Patreon I’ve just been ecstatic waiting

Way ahead of its time, it is the best of the best remakes Disney has done ever

To this day the biggest crime in cinematic history is the fact this was filmed in Digital HD rather than film so we could never get a 4K Remaster release.

Tron Legacy pretty much popularized the syncwave genre.

Man, I remember my friends and I taking shrooms and seeing this in 3D, absolutely insane experience.

Daft Punk deserved to be nominated for Best Original Score

this movie and the first avatar are the best 3d experiences ive been to

If you love this you’ll love tron uprising, it takes this aesthetic to a whole new level plus great writing and story

Finally! I've been waiting for you to react to this movie for that past 2 YEARS!!! 🎉

I just noticed you finally got some Focal headphones!! Yay!! Gone are the days of gaming headphones. A great pair of headphones and a good movie is an experience more people should have! So much more intimate.

So glad this reaction finally dropped

DUDE Tron and Tron: Legacy are my fucking favorite movies of all time--you'll love the original!

Thank you Seb, this film has inspired me a lot! Glad you watched it💕

21:35 Gawd i love that beat !! So happy that you liked it too !!

This movie is so well made that I'm surprised every time it was released in 2010
