Free Tron Legacy Imax Preview Tickets

They probably shouldn't have told everyone exactly how to get the tickets and then publish the list. The only thing you need is a valid ID so that they can be sure you're on the list. They didn't even take down your address or any other info.

I wouldn't think many people would be that excited about going that they would resort to subterfuge to get in...but I could be wrong.

Who WOULDN'T get excited about free tickets?

[Mousekedude]

There were several locations available in Houston, but the only one that wasn't sold out by the time we heard about it was on a day and time when we couldn't go. Oh well.

Subterfuge to gain tickets?! How un-Disney-like! Shame, shame!

People died for $400 laptops, I think a lie to get past the bouncer at a party is well within the acceptable limit.

I guess I can see your point Just a sad sort of world where people would do that

It's funny, I never thought it was a big deal or would get "sold out" when I got the tickets. I saw the link and looked at my calendar, and seriously, I never have any open time, but next Thursday night was open for me so I thought, ok why not go, it might be fun.

But the funny thing is I signed up for a ticket for me on my e-mail, one for my son on his email, and for my daughter on her email. So I though I had 3 tickets to go in. But after reading the ticket, each ticket is for 2 people, so I have now 6 tickets really. I think my son is going to bring a friend and my daughter will bring her boyfriend, so we should have a big group.

There is a ticket at the top of the page and this is what it says on the bottom of the page "ticket":

I will report back next week... I am looking forward to going. I loved TRON when it first came out, so cool, so futuristic. I hope the new movie does the original justice.

Let us know how it is! I just recently watched Tron earlier this week since I've never seen it before and now I'm looking forward to the sequel.

What would have been cool as the sequel is coming out would have to been to re-do the original with all new computer graphics and in 3D to boot....

I think they avoided doing that because nerds had/have enough problems with Lucas doing that.

[Amy]

Wow cousininmiami, those are a lot of rules! Sounds like you will have a fun time though You'll have to let us know how it was...

[Wizzard419]

Yeah, they oversold all the theaters so get there early. Rumor has it that you shouldn't have too much trouble if you're in standby since the last time they did it very few of the registered people actually showed up and there was confusion by many people where they thought it was for a single ticket not a pair and ended up snagging several pairs by accident.

Just remember, leave your phones at home/in the car. I have a feeling they are going to do a search of everyone since they really do not want it leaked on the net.

Frankly, I had no problems with Lucas doing it. It cleaned up some bads in Ep 4, cleared up a major plot flaw in the end of Ep 5, improved Ep 6 but needed to do far more to clean up some of the bad, bad special effects still left in that film (such as Luke fighting the monster in dungeon pit, the dessert ship sequence, Ewok battle scenes, etc.).

I think the first Tron would crisper and sharper if it was re-done using today's superior computer graphics. It looks soooo radio shack.

[Wizzard419]

Yeah, they can improve the visuals drastically but some of the nerds treat all those older films like they should never be touched, altered, etc. (Read only settings) and that any attempt would be like trying to edit a holy book.

[Jacca5660]

I think one of the reasons they haven't touched Tron is because of the quality of the original. I don't think there is much to work with. Although they can do so much now, it might help it some. Tron used to be one of my favorite movies. I guess I'm one of those nerds/geeks y'all are talking about! How can you be a jock and a nerd/geek? Smart jock = oxymoron!! I ain't no ox moron!! ;+>
