    I really liked the general idea of this Tron movie. I love the original and enjoy the sequel a lot.

    Seeing him as the lead destroyed any interest I have in this.

    Every time Leto is cast in a movie it feels like a prank, like “here’s a legacy sequel and it’s actually good?! Don’t worry we cast Leto as a main character lmao” has happened a few times now.

    I was really looking forward to this movie for a couple years because I love the aesthetic of Legacy, just wanted to take that environment and actually give it a good story. Unfortunately, everything I hear about it makes me exponentially less interested.

    Casting Leto as the lead is fucking stupid and I don’t want to support studios that ignore how much of a creep he is. Also, instead of getting Daft Punk for the score/audio design, we get Nine Inch Nails (who I don’t have anything against, but don’t come close to the Daft Punk vibes at all). Lastly, the trailer makes it look like almost all of the film will be taking place in the human world and not the grid, so what’s the point?

    …and yet they STILL keep casting this creep in the lead, despite several notorious box-office flops and a murky offscreen reputation.

    I keep forgetting he’s the lead in this and every time I’m reminded I get disappointed all over again.

    The poster has Jeff Bridges standing nearby in a dress. Also, the disc is pink and triangular now. I think the poster is calling Leto a fag?
