Nope, I didn't care for Tron in its first run ... and neither did most audiences. It bombed, if I recall correctly.
BUT - - it had great elements, and wonderful style. Jeff Bridges, David Warner and some other fun performers. A cool look unseen at that time, and an experimental type score by Wendy Carlos. None of it gelled, imo ... and I daresay in the opinions of many.
But it lived on in fondness for what it did achieve and for its really cool parts which were greater than the sum of.
Believe me, I squee at the Tron footwear, the Tron tattoos, and the prospects of the Tron tunnel returning to Disneyland. So, yes, I squeed at the trailer the other night ... and I will be seeing this movie on Opening Day.
S.Q.E. Squee.
