TF2 made me the man I am today

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Correction: TF2 made me the man I was before ponies. Then ponies made me the what-some-would-call-a-man I am today.

On one hand, this means Lucas can't fuck up the franchise anymore.

On another hand, this means Disney can fuck up the franchise more than Lucas has.

[Pinkie Pie]

He's still on as a 'creative consultant', so he still has a hand in it.

Hey, look on the bright side. Maybe Disney will do with Lucasfilm what they did with Marvel. *cough*TheAvengers*cough*

[Pinkie Pie]

That was in the works BEFORE Disney, though.

I'll give it 15 years before I pass judgement.

Tron Legacy was pretty good but I wish it had come out in 1990 and not 2010.

[danielsangeo]

I didn't really like Tron: Legacy too much. The story, in my opinion, took a backseat to "OOoooooOOOOooo! Lookit the new graphics!" And the characters they had were very muddled and too often took me out of immersion.

 

I much prefer the original Tron (I have it on Blu Ray) because the graphics were primitive and they didn't get in the way of the story and the characters.

 

In other news, my old avatar and other stuff is back now that Halloween is (*sniff*) over for another year.

[Alyxx Thorne]

Tron Legacy will never be as groundbreaking as Tron was either in terms of effects. For its time, Tron was really on the edge of what was possible with CGI and even today I think it has a very inspiring style. I just can't say the same about Legacy.

[Pinkie Pie]

I still like Legacy, though, and want a sequel. I think it might be like with people liking the Transformers movies. *I* don't get it. I've watched them all and I just can't understand why people like them so much, but it must be the same way with me and Legacy. I like to think Legacy is a smarter movie than Transformers, though.

[Alyxx Thorne]

I guess the difference is that Tron is about computer games where Transformers is about toys.

[Pinkie Pie]

Well, with Michael Bay involved it's about boobs, racism, explosions, and SOME Optimus Prime. I dunno, maybe I just appeal to Tron more because Bay tainted my view on Transformers for the longest time until War for Cybertron came out and I watched the older animated movie. And he's gonna do the same with Ninja Turtles? God I fear the future.

[Alyxx Thorne]

Oh, now I realize what you meant by "fearing the future" in your other post. XD

I want to watch Wreck-It Ralph when I get back from Germany.

[Collective Foal]

I might see Wreck It Ralph in theaters. But I'd like to watch it with friends rather than family for once. I don't think I've EVER seen a movie without a family member before. That's just sad.
