Want to see a CGI’d version of Jeff Bridges as a 35 year old again? Want to see another glimpse into something that could potentially blow your mind on December 17th, 2010 (on IMAX 3D, of course)?

Behold the latest Tron:Legacy trailer. With more bright and shiny lights!

Sam Flynn, the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn, looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant, father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.

Yeah, whatever. Just show me the flashing lights in 3D.

Maybe you missed the original Tron because you were too young (1982).

You might have missed the rave scene of the early 2000′s.

You now have another opportunity for a lightshow that would make DJ Tiesto say “Dayum!”

I’ll have to admit. This film has not been on my radar. I was too young to truly care about the original. By the time I could care, the effects were outdated and impossible to watch. But something about this trailer got my attention. Maybe it was the wicked Daft Punk score pulsating in the background.  Maybe it was the obvious excitement at Jeff Bridges playing another badass. Or maybe it was all about the pretty lights. Regardless, it’s fairly obvious that this trailer should be seen on the big screen–in IMAX to truly grasp the coolness of it all. The same feelings were had when first seeing the Avatar trailer. Super cool, but needed to be on the big screen, not my computer.

Tron: Legacy is the first step in a post-Avatar world. We expect to be blown away. We expect the spectacle. I really didn’t think I’d be interested in this film at all.

Now I simply say: Yes please.
