1982. A year that brings to mind the electronic sounds of Depeche Mode, the brilliantly colored, angular neon couture of emerging fashion, the first CDs, the birth of PCs, and the cinematic eye-popping 70's inspired graphics ofDisney's cult classic, "Tron." StarringJeff Bridges as Kevin Flynn, the original "Tron" was the story of a young computer genius who circumnavigated the logic of fledgling computer technology to create the ultimate unique GUI (Graphical User Interface) by way of a "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" style De-rez, digitizing beam. Kevin finds himself kidnapped by the MCP (Master Control Program) inside the computer, and fights to survive as a "User" while teaming up with his friend, Alan's, security "Program," Tron, to escape MCP's hold back to reality.

Although "Tron" was never a blockbuster, it still wedged itself in as part of the nascent digital revolution. Now, 28 years later in real time, Disney has taken that idea and recreated the neon striated world using state-of-the-art computer graphics with high definition keying techniques to transform the blocky settings into a pure 3D immersive experience. "Tron Legacy" "Directed byJoseph Kosinski" is a stunning high quality counterpart to its forefather. StarringJeff Bridges"returning as Kevin Flynn, and also as his creation, CLU, "Tron: Legacy" introduces the athletic skills ofGarrett Hedlund as Kevin's adult son, "Sam Flynn," and the graceful Olivia Wilde as the unique "ISO" (Isomorphic Algorithm,) "Quorra."

As it happens, Kevin has been living in the world of Tron for the past 25 years, leaving his only son the head shareholder of Kevin and Alan's game company, Encom. Sam finds himself blasted into The Grid "a digital world his father created", and with the help of Quorra, battles life and death situations against a facist 1982 version of Bridges in order to free his father and return home.

The Trailer for "Tron: Legacy" sent millions of fans drooling over the two-decade awaited sequel.Loyal Studios in Santa Monica, California, was the location used to shoot a portion of the trailer withOlivia Wilde. Using the studio's spacious green screen, The Grid came alive with motion capture nodes, identity disks, ideal lighting, and, of course, the incredible flexible talent of Wilde, who gave Quorra a deep emotional resonance.
