Kind of reminds me of the original STAR WARS poster actually, but regardless, not my favorite TRON poster so far... Much prefered that Japanese one with the glowing blue rings

BEAUTIFUL. I want that on my wall.

There's something odd about Garrett Hedlund's face in that poster that goes beyond the normal photoshop cockup, but I can't put my finger on it.

That's actually a great poster.

There's something sort of Frazetta-esque about it to me. Maybe it's the way the girl is posed, but it seems to hearken back to that old-school style.

I know that there were different ones used even back in 77, but I was talking about this one. I thought given the pose of the leads it would be clear what I was talking about:

Can just see a little red 'x', but I take it you mean the one with Luke, front and center, holding his sabre straight up like a beacon?

Oh drat, let me change that hang on (yes that's what I was talking about)

For reference, Kate, this is the poster they are riffing on:



New poster is great, need one for my wall.

Good point, though in fairness perhaps that poster was riffing on SW given the fact that SW came first

Anyway, the fact that it's echoing an older poster isn't the only reason why it's not my favorite tron poster. I like the other one I linked to better on a number of levels

I don't know, something about that Japanese one seems off. It feels less like a cohesive whole, and more like a bunch of images slapped together.

Awesome.

Gimme a translated Japanese one of these, please.
