Agreed! Although I can't find anywhere with a Separate original Tron BD/DVD pre order up? :/

I can't either, I hope it's getting a seperate release as I haven't seen artwork yet just the Legacy and double packs.

Looking more hopeful for an individual Tron release? Want to get the 3D superset so was hoping they would release the original separately

This isn't doing Tron any release day blind buy favours. Frisbee anyone?

This might be worst coverart ever?

I've got a feeling the UK (single) release of TRON isn't going to materialise.

Much better. Send it to the studio. They might give you a job there just to say thank you!

I'm not keen on the Tron/Tron Legacy double pack myself. I prefer films in a certain franchise have their own individual cases. Maybe I'm just old fashioned.

I won't be getting the 3D super set for the following reasons:
1. I don't have a 3D set up so I would have a disc that would never get used
2. Not a big fan of 3D anyway
3. Don't see myself upgrading to a 3D set up anytime soon

A digital copy is tempting, but not worth the money when the studio is trying to push a 3D set as part of the deal.

Looks like it'll just be the double play set (Blu-ray+DVD) for me.

I hope the original Tron does eventually get a single release. I loved Tron Legacy so there is a good chance that I would love the original Tron aswell.

Thanks I've added the dreaded certificates to the cover now. I think I'd like to see some shots of the original before I buy but I hope it looks fantastic on blu-ray. And Legacy should be reference quality material so I can't wait to watch it for the first time.

Not sure where you live, friend. But I was able to walk into my local Moviestop Wednesday where they had the original Tron listed for pre-order on blu-ray. Their projected release date is May 1st, but I'm sure it'll be a bit earlier.

I went into Tron Legacy with some reservation as the original Tron I thought was a film that I didn't like.
This one is eye candy and audiophile utopia.
I'll buy this BluRay for sure.
Look, the premise is a 'been there done that' feel (bad guy wants the world) but, the gadgets and whatsits along with the eye candy PQ and booming audio tracks are worth it and I'm assuming should be reference material.

Bravo.

By the bad guy I assume you mean Clu. Clu doesn't want the world he wants perfection as per Kevin programmed him to want. Everything he did, he did for Kevin.

Not like these films that aren't shot with real 3D and then have "3D" through the whole film, because you just get used to it and don't even notice it.

Still not sure whether I should have watched the original first though. I have been meaning to watch it, but just haven't gotten around to it yet...
Everything aside from the scenes in the real world is shoot in 3d.

They can, but they are often locked and a seperate disc is included as the actual image can often differ. Often the 2d has adjustments made to it, so aside from including a completely seperate encode for a 2d release on the same disc it is often best to include a seperate disc (there are also instances where the actuall film differs in terms of plcemnent s of object ect between the 2d and 3d release [eg: Alice in Wonderland]).

Well this is a UK forum, so we don't have Moviestop, and looking at how Disney UK release their Blu-rays at the moment, there's a possiblity that they'll only release it in a double-pack with Tron: Legacy, as they seem intent on these double-pack releases.

If they do just release the double pack Disney will be treating Tron like a DTV title something it doesn't deserve be any stretch of the imagination.

I love The Collectors Packaging Edition. I want it, and comes with 3D.

And again, the UK gets shafted in terms of special edition packaging. I wish I could move to the states now.
