I was really looking forward to this movie for a couple years because I love the aesthetic of Legacy, just wanted to take that environment and actually give it a good story. Unfortunately, everything I hear about it makes me exponentially less interested.
Casting Leto as the lead is fucking stupid and I don't want to support studios that ignore how much of a creep he is. Also, instead of getting Daft Punk for the score/audio design, we get Nine Inch Nails (who I don't have anything against, but don't come close to the Daft Punk vibes at all). Lastly, the trailer makes it look like almost all of the film will be taking place in the human world and not the grid, so what's the point?
Every time Leto is cast in a movie it feels like a prank, like "here's a legacy sequel and it's actually good?! Don't worry we cast Leto as a main character lmao" has happened a few times now.
I keep forgetting he's the lead in this and every time I'm reminded I get disappointed all over again.
This post is how I found out. Ugh
Ah butts, I wasn’t aware of the allegations. For anyone else who doesn’t know: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2025/jun/07/jared-leto-accused-sexual-impropriety
He's not. Nine Inch Nails is 🙂
Exactly. I was kind of happy there's another Tron movie. But when I saw Leto's in it, I lost all interest.
Is it? Be real. Did you really think this would be decent?
Geez, and here I get accused of living up to my username!!!
I haven't heard any details at all about the movie until this post. So i didn't have any opinion at all about it.
The Nine Inch Nails score is disappointing too.
...and yet they STILL keep casting this creep in the lead, despite several notorious box-office flops and a murky offscreen reputation.
Best part is when he said it's Troning time and Troned all over the place.
Well, none that aren't in his weird sex cult.

Isn’t Daft Punk retired?
Yes, but it's frustrating that they aren't even going for that same kind of synth/techno vibe in this one
He's standing on her ... you just can't see her
She got morbed

blade runner 2049. to be fair, it was before the sexual assault allegations, but still.
He has never had a role that fit him better tbh. He'd already been method acting as a creepy eccentric unlikable weirdo for most of his life!
I really liked the general idea of this Tron movie. I love the original and enjoy the sequel a lot.
Seeing him as the lead destroyed any interest I have in this.
"Smoke 'em if ya got 'em!"
(At one point that last word of yours was common slang for cigarettes in some countries. Dunno about now.)
Somehow I'd forgotten about that line - thanks for the laugh!
Ah even when not there he manages to fuck women hard
