There will be a sequel no doubt. Maybe a Trilogy.

I hope so!

As long as they don't kill the format first. Right now the various companies that produce 3D glasses are making popular movies exclusive to their brand and requiring you buy 2 pair of glasses to get the movie (Or turing a $30 purchase into a $300 one).

Don't know if anyone else here has mentioned it already, but if you look up the wikipedia entry for Tron: Legacy, Steven Lisberger stated that a sequel was officially in production and that Adam Horowitz and Eddie Kitsis, screenwriters for Tron: Legacy, were in the early stages of producing a script for the new film...

Can't really see how the third film will pan out... Tron:Legacy seemed like a pretty conclusive ending to me. I assume that most people on this ARG have watched the film by now!! Anyway...

Anybody know what the capacity of the average server was back in 1983/1989?

By 1980 the first Gigabyte Hard Drive (IBM 3380) was released. It was around the size of a refrigerator. But was not widely used.

From my experience, typically anything that grosses $200 Million or more domestically is nearly guaranteed a sequel. Right now, according to Box Office Mojo, TRON: Legacy is sitting at $133.6 Million domestically, however at only 18 days of release it's far from making all of it's money.

TRON: Legacy likely won't become the next Avatar ($749.7 Million Domestic), or even the next Pirates of the Caribbean ($305.4 Million Domestic), as much as Disney put their best efforts out there with marketing to appeal to a wide audience, TRON still has that niche stigma associated with it. However, if the movie can gross over $200 Million Domestically with a similar gross Internationally it's almost certain Disney will make a sequel. It may not have been the break out hit they hoped for, but considering box office sales were down 44% since last year in December the current standing at $133.6 Million isn't too shabby, and as I said before, it's still got enough momentum to maintain sales at least through the end of January.

A small article about the third film. Apparently now it's official.

With a pretty cool suggestion about the next possible villain.

That story has nothing new to offer and is FAR from an official confirmation that any sequel is going forward. The writers were working on a story for a possible third flick long before Legacy was released. And Dillinger Jr as the villain... um, I don't think that is much of a stretch to foresee.

When anything official is stated by Disney, it will be reported on the major movie news sites.
