    I have always loved to answer Tron when people would ask me what is my favorite Disney movie. I suspect that Disney is very aware that Daft Punk’s involvement contributed to the success of Tron: Legacy and pulled in NIN to try to duplicate the magic. I don’t necessarily think it will work, but I am not said for the new NIN.

      Oh it was very mutual for Disney and daft punk. People like myself have had Daft Punk albums since the early 90s. While everyone was asking who was under the helmets. We already knew. And had followed them since before they formed Daft Punk. But for your average lay person. Tron legacy is what really introduced them to daft punk and caused them to blow up even bigger. Not that they didn’t deserve it.

      Legacy in the time it was made, had plenty of time to cook and get things just right. By all rights, Aries should have as well. But the Disney today is not that Disney.

      From the little I’ve read they are doing this more as a semi reboot been a continuation. Which is a definite mistake in my estimation.
