not to be a downer, but I don’t want programs to be in the user world (unless we’re talking Quorra and Tron but we all know that’s never happening). Tron has such an interesting world so why not expand on it? I already know what happens on our world. I wanna see more of Tron’s world.

I mean, for me it would really depend on the story and especially the characters – yeah. I agree that if it’s a totally new character it would be a VERY hard sell to get me to care, and I very much doubt Jared Leto would manage that feat.

(I’m already mostly screwed, because when I fell in love with Tron it was with the 82 movie and I specifically bonded to characters that ended up never appearing in later canon– so I already have some trouble relating emotionally to anything beyond 82. I don’t know how my heart chooses what characters to love, but that character love can absolutely make or break a fandom obsession for me.)

I already mostly don’t even like watching movies in theaters and I live in a pretty much eternal boycott of Disney, and so far I see nothing in the movie worth breaking that for. So as it stands now I am not planning to see it until I can get it without paying them anything (piracy or secondhand DVDs).

And maybe not even then. I don’t put any value on the blessing of the Mouse to make things canon. If it sucks, I don’t have to watch it any more than I have to read fanfiction that sucks.
