why would tron ares take 15 years to return to theaters after tron legacy?
Our in-depth review series, Part One, takes a look at how other elements in cinema, and the science-fiction genre contributed to delaying the first sequel and now Tron Ares. Legacy took 28 years for its release when most sequels took two to four years tops. And now Ares comes in 15 years after Legacy?
“No one really cared about Tron Legacy, because The Matrix franchise had created a compelling premise, an edge-of-your seat adventure with claws that grabbed the audience and didn't let go despite a less inspiring second act and a below average third act. That opening salvo was so powerful in the story it told, The Matrix kept on reverberating in the public psyche, its influence reverberating in pop culture, and its dying echoes were still strong enough to knock Legacy off its feet when it opened. Disney did not attempt a sequel until 15 years later.”
If you want to read the real reasons behind the massive gap and the lackluster Tron Ares’ return, you need to read Part I of III in this in-depth look at Tron and the sci-fi genre.
