'TRON: Legacy' starring Jeff Bridges - trailer review

TRON: Legacy Directed by: Joseph Kosinski Starring: Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Michael Sheen Rating: NR Release Date: December 17, 2010

TRAILER SCORE: 9/10

MY THOUGHTS: I saw this trailer while at the IMAX recently, and I enjoyed the spectacle of it all immensely. In fact, it made me wish I was seeing TRON: Legacy right then and there, instead of whatever forgettable film it was that I saw that night. I love everything about this trailer.  It begins with a genuine air of mystery, and though we only see snippets of it, a brilliant and lonely ambiance pervades the real world Sam inhabits -- and then he goes elecTRONic and that ambiance is amplified tenfold.  Daft Punk's soundtrack is sure to please -- the music/sound design in this trailer certainly sparked my excitement.  Olivia Wilde looks stunning, though perhaps a little stiff/android-esque, but I imagine that's the point.  Garrett Hedlund seems to fit the role of protagonist well, and you can't go wrong with Jeff Bridges.  I'm totally stoked for this film!
