Tron Ares 3D (2025) in cinemas October 2025

If the realD trailers are going to be any indication of the 3D, then wow is it going to be awful and full of ghosting. I know this is theatre dependant, unfortunately I live in an area with no good 3D projections and the owners don't care about it

Saying that, the 3D on Tron Legacy was so minimal that it was a waste of time. Apparently something to do with problems caused by double-imaging issues on account of the massive light-dark contrasts in the film. I don't even bother watching my 3DBD of this one, I just stick with the 2D.
I doubt that Ares would be better.

I hear your concerns.
The 3D trailer has mild to medium 3D layers, but only slightly better than Tron Legacy's mostly mild 3D. Hopefully there are some strong 3D shots yet to be shown in the final 3D movie on 10/10/25.

Sorry to hear that your theater projectors there aren't properly set up. My Regal is like that too. Cinemark though, excellent 3D theaters by me I'm relieved to say.

I saw the 3D trailer for Tron 3 Ares in theaters and it's mild to medium 3D layers. I didn't notice any ghosting because of that. If this went for strong 3D, with the bright glowing lines against the darkness of night, it would be really tough to post-edit that in 3D without zooming in or out to correct it too much, since the 3D glasses in theaters can't mask out all of the light.

Yeah unfortunately we don't have good 3D cinemas here. We only have Cinemark and all of them are not good and have some variable degrees of crosstalk/ghosting

Tron 3 will have the programs and special AI evolved programs strike out from the computer grid, attempting to take over Earth. Will be interesting to see Jeff Bridges return in a role. Probably as a program absorbed after Tron Legacy.

That is the Cinemark theater with bad projection? That is frustrating and surprising but thanks for mentioning it. My Cinemark might be a newer theater, and with a more concerned staff as they have perfect calibration/alignment of the 3D projectors since 2007's 3D Beowulf.

Sadly, Regal theaters 3D projection sounds like what you have there. Misaligned, double images on the sides at all times, dimly lit (so they can save on bulb replacement costs), and a bad presentation that will turn away new potential fans for 3D cinema. The theaters at fault do no favors for 3D, but is a case by case situation.

Yes it's Cinemark. They're the only chain here that does 3D and most of the showings are okay at best in terms of their 3D presentations. There's always crosstalk/ghosting no matter the movie, screen, or auditorium, there's some that have less, but it's an XD auditorium they hardly show 3D movies in

Thanks. I've spoken to Regal a few times, and the best they could do is say the projectors are handled by an outside source, so they can't adjust them during a show for the 3D calibration that is all double imaged on each side for every movie for years, and a free movie ticket one other time. I stopped going there after that. Unless I'm in that area and it's a 2D only movie.
