Roderique Arisiaman has an interesting vision. It’s a vision in which the powerful Sith lord, former Jedi, Darth Vadar explores a virtual world inside an old computer game. This vision is manifest through art. Shiny blue art. Art that can only be called Darth Tron!
Tron, Daft Punk, Derezzed – all made uber shiny with electric guitar cover
One of the great things about Tron 2 was the soundtrack. Daft Punk is the perfect band for the franchise. As much as I like Daft Punk it doesn’t mean that I’ll deny they can be trumped. I think Swan the White Pig has managed to do just that with his electric guitar cover of […]
Two words: Tron Samurai
Some pictures need very little introduction beyond their title. This is one – this is Tron Samurai. For a brief minute I had to wonder how and why the programs in Tron ended up battling with flying discs instead of more traditional weapons. But, duh, it’s a computer program and they’re simply doing what they […]
TR3N / Tron 3: Destiny trailer is a fake
There’s a bit of a battle raging in the YouTube comments for this trailer. Is this a fake or not? The uploader, antovolk3 suggests it may not be real but others have suggested Disney and Warner Bros have YouTube yanked other copies of the video so surely that means it has to be real? Have […]
Fan made TRON Light Cycle board game and models
What did you think of the new Light Cycles in Tron: Legacy? Was it wrong to see them with curved light lines? Certainly the classic, corner-now-or-die, Light Cycles are famous and truly Tron. Little wonder that geek natives around the world fancy having access to a Light Cycle game. Step forward KingTemp, smoked acrylic, some […]
TRON 3 (TR3N) trailer
There’s a 10 minute long trailer for TRON 3: The Next Day. Yeah 10 minutes long. The trailer contains a major reveal but I’m not sure if it’s a spoiler. The trailer is a documentary style recap on the Flynn Lives movement that sprung up to resist the corporate transformation of ENCOM after Kevin Flynn […]
Tron Uprising trailer
The teaser trailer for the animated Tron series – Tron Uprising – is out. I suddenly understand why they had Bruce Boxleitner as Tron in the movie. They were thinking ahead by, er, thinking back to what they should show off the franchise in the time between Tron and Tron Legacy. The cast looks pretty […]
Playboy does Tron [cheeky]
Don’t grumble. You saw the title Playboy in this post and you clicked anyway! Besides, despite a little cheek; I think we’re safe. This is art, right? Body paint is often considered art. Even if the body paint glows in the dark. This is the second Playboy post at Geek Native; the first being the […]
TRON & Daft Punk: 9 minutes of impressive projection mapping
I’ll put my hands up and admit that I’ve seen such a rush of fancy 3D projections that I’m becoming hard to impress. I don’t even think this projection mapping on the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in London is in 3D. It is, however, impressive. What’s more; this 9 minute video is full of Daft Punk […]
Awesome – Tron mouse leaves light trails
The famous light bikes in Tron were okay. What made them so cool was the solid light trails. Don’t you agree? The Tron franchise machine knows exactly what makes the visuals work in the film? Items bound with neon strips are common. Light trails are rare. They’re just hard to do! That’s why this Tron […]
