Tron: Perfection

Wakeupkeo has made TRON: Legacy perfect!

I recall enjoying this film a lot upon initial viewing, but that was a long time ago. Revisiting TRON: Legacy, almost for the first time, with this edit was a darn treat! Everything was edited so seamlessly, I couldn't even tell it was a fanedit. There was a quick moment at around the 41 minute mark where Kevin was narrating over a flashback and the music was a bit loud. I also wasn't really a fan of the "Doin' it Right" rescore at the end, I would have preferred the main theme. Besides those two nitpicks, both the audio and visuals are on point.

Looking at the changes after watching, there is a lot cut. Mainly a lot of cheesy-cheesies and clichés that aren't missed. One moment I believe should have been cut was Castor doing a little dance after stealing Kevin's disk at around 00:56:16. It kind of takes away from the moment, plus he got blown up minutes later.

Besides those minor criticisms, this edit is just fantastic. The best of this movie is really brought out, while all of the negatives are gone.

I applaud you Wakeupkeo, another amazing fan-edit.

Do you really dislike Tron: Legacy? Yes? Then this edit is not going to make you like it.
Were you ambivalent about Tron: Legacy? Yes? Then you might really enjoy this edit!

Wakeupkeo trims over 30 minutes from this film, and I didn't miss a single one. It's a leaner, slicker piece of big popcorn cheese. But popcorn cheese it is. With many of the worst lines and most pointless side-plots gone, we're still left with a film that really has nothing to say and that's built on mind-numbingly typical dialogue.

Props to the editor for making the film's strongest asset, the amazing Daft Punk soundtrack, flow smoothly and undisturbed. There were a few lines where the audio editing stood out to me, but nothing so jarring that I had to mark off points. Keeping the music flow intact was the truly impressive bit. Visual editing is even more flawless (I had a moment of slight confusion in the CLU/TRON fight, but not sure if that was due to the fanediting or original editing and I'm too unmotivated to check.)

Did I "enjoy" the narrative? Well, not that much. But more than the original, so it seems inappropriate to take points off here. This film is definitely an improvement on the original Tron: Legacy. It's still a huge wasted opportunity and I'd recommend the animated series instead (Tron: Uprising- amazing cast!) but Wakeupkeo has succeeded at making a bad movie less bad.

This is a really impressive effort. While I think the ending was a bit rushed, and some of the added voice-over was awkward at times, this edit quite successfully streamlines the narrative and improves the pacing overall. Unquestionably preferable to the theatrical cut.

Long time I saw Tron Legacy and I jumped into this edit without even reading the changes or the information. I saw the title and the score and went for it.
I was not disappointed! An exciting edit with great pace and narrative! There was almost no cringe at all and went from family film to sci fi thriller. My go to edit!

Great, man. Fantastic. The narrative is stronger, the villains are more intimidating and imposing, the structure is clearer. Everything is better.
I give a 9 on visual editing though, because some cuts were too obvious, but it doesn't mess up the enjoyment of the whole thing.
Definite 9.5/10 movie.
