This may be too large a leap.
But the parallels between Tron and Avatar - accepting 27 years of advancement - is incredible. Or, perhaps I should say that, when watching Tron for the first time last night, I was mostly reminded of Avatar.
Guy transported bodily into alien world that only he can help save from nasty people?
Mm, ok maybe it's a stretch. And Tron is clearly much more lighthearted - cinema is more advanced. Anyone seen a film lately that isn't full of controversy, heartache, and so on? I loved My Neighbor Totoro for just that reason.
At the end of Avatar, I left not knowing what I felt. There are all sorts of messages.
So, if you take Tron, add an enviro message and current thinking on what filmgoers want (ambiguity, complex messages), you get.. Avatar.
Well.. maybe.
