    The thing is - the original became a cult classic in part because of the “cutting-edge” special effects. These modern takes look flashy, but they’re not showing us anything “cutting-edge”.

    Funny enough, I think the now-dated look of the original is part of its charm. I wonder if a Tron sequel would do better with a “dumbed-down” look.

      I saw the original in the theater. It was exactly as amazing as advertised.

      But it’s been a long time since then
