But first, if you haven't already bought Daft Punk's electrifying soundtrack to Tron Legacy...
...then you really oughtta go to iTunes (where I bought it from) or buy it old-school physical media from a retailer and add it to your collection. In all seriousness, I'm finding it increasingly harder to find any friends who haven't got this album yet. Lately I'm listening to this, well... just about any time that I need music. Just gotta be careful when listening to "Son of Flynn" and "The Game Has Changed" while driving 'cuz like "Duel of the Fates" did from the Star Wars Episode I soundtrack, it's too easy to find myself with the pedal to the metal :-P
I didn't know until today that it was Cillian Murphy playing Edward Dillinger Jr. in the board room scene early in Tron Legacy. Had I caught that when we saw the movie a few weeks ago (read my review of Tron Legacy here) that would have been a huge flashing red hint that there were perhaps larger plans afoot for the Tron franchise.
Now comes word from Ain't It Cool News that the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release of Tron Legacy will feature three "teaser" scenes for... wait for it... the THIRD Tron movie. What are these scenes? The first one is reportedly Alan (Bruce Boxleitner) confronting the creator of RAM (the program that Flynn befriended in 1982's Tron, and again played by Dan Shor). RAM's human user, it is revealed, is the person behind the "Flynn Lives" campaign.
The second scene has Quorra (Olivia Wilde's character from Tron Legacy) still out of the Grid in human form, telling some reporters that she had just spoken with Kevin Flynn.
And the third teaser scene? Just some text messages... but oh boy, what they portend! It's an exchange between Edward Dillinger and his father (Ed Dillinger, who was played by David Warner in the original) about how "everything is going as planned".
Does this mean that Warner will be coming back not only as Dillinger but also as Sark or... be still my geeky heart... the Master Control Program?!
Looks like we'll be finding out soon enough. More Tron is always a good thing :-)

I have not even seen Tron Legacy but, for the first time ever, bought the soundtrack to a movie I have not attended. Love the music! I read on Roger Ebert's review that "the soundtrack probably would not be good to listen to while driving" and then you raved about it to so I figured...what the heck. Thanks for the recommendation.
Great stuff.
Now go see True Grit....
I have heard nothing but extremely good stuff about True Grit. I might catch it later this week. Thanks for the recommendation back atcha! :-)
I bought the TRON: Legacy soundtrack before seeing it, too. Love it!
And yes, I can only say good things about True Grit. Excellent flick.
