OK I’m gonna post some TRON 1982 storyboard art that was on the LaserDisc, because …. well BECAUSE
from what the LaserDisc extras show, it seems like this was a whole storyboard done before a LOT of things were finalized
…not much context was given… but…
here goes!
so: it starts out with what seems to be a similar opening scene– cutting back and forth between the Player and Program sides of an Arcade game…
which at first seems unsure as to whether it’s the Disc Game or the Ring Game, but then switches to Lightcycles or maybe…. tanks?
oh wait, this game also involves some kind of… shark planes
I like the shark planes
at this point they have apparently decided the colors are gonna be red vs blue, but they have not decided yet on Light Bikes vs Light Scooters
I like their neat little vacuum-tube public transit system
