The concept of Tron,is a good one. And the first movie, while not perfect, is pretty good. Theres enough there, that Disney could have created its very own Star Wars franchise. Instead they bought Star Wars, and gave it the Tron treatment to make sure that died as well.
The problem is very much Disney. With Marvel, they got the right creatives together to make mostly solid movies that people liked. Over the past 5 years, they have pissed all that away with being Disney things. And a few months ago, I read that they were looking for another ip to buy so they could bring the gen Z male audience back... Which is telling as fuck, when they have Marvel and Star Wars, but dont know how to make them appeal to the younger male audience so much that they need to buy another IP.
actually, disney's SW was going to be John Carter and they killed it in favor of SW.
Well, disney never knew how to handle SW at any point. They had luck with The Mandalorian S01 and with Rogue One, and Rebels, but that's it… they are a girls/family company and that's it. Pixar was other thing but now they are Pixaren't after disney bought them.
They killed it when they took off the FROM MARS part!
John Carter. Who the fuck is John Carter?!
John Carter FROM MARS! Ooohhh, it's a sci-fi. I'm in!
Good script, good acting, good source material, good director that was really into the source material, shit marketing.
