And CLU won't be done until he has entered the real world and "rectified" more imperfections, namely humanity itself. But CLU takes too seriously his quest for technological perfection, soon enslaving Tron and sending Flynn into the outskirts of the grid, where he has hidden until the present day. It's a server that houses the "grid" he created decades earlier, with the help of his supposed-to-be helpful virtual doppelganger, CLU, and the original Tron program (Bruce Boxleitner), both ageless. Star Jeff Bridges picked up an Oscar and a few wrinkles in the interim, and this film finds his computer whiz Kevin Flynn once again trapped inside the digital realm. A 1982 buck is worth a lot more than a 2010 greenback, true, but the follow-up not everyone was waiting for grossed $44M in its first weekend alone. This one has got to be some kind of record, right? More than 28 years after TRON hit American theaters, raking in a less-than-blockbuster $33M, TRON: Legacy was released upon audiences apparently hungry for sequels, eye candy and fresh 3D.
