    Pixar Reportedly Helping Out On Tron: Legacy

    I was shooting the shit with a buddy/webmaster-colleague last night when he noted what a great job Disney has been doing for Tron: Legacy. No doubt, the studio and filmmakers are going to make their presence known at Comic-Con next week.

    When you think about it, it's a ballsy move on the Mouse's part. Make a sequel to nearly thirty-year-old cult classic that was an expensive box-office flop upon its release. And shoot it in 3D. The funny thing is I think Legacy is going to be a monster hit this Christmas. I'm definitely going to pay the extra cash to see this sucker in 3D, and I hate the gimmick with all my might.

    Entertainment Weekly says Disney has gone the extra mile to assure a quality product.

    The studio hired Pixar alum Brad Bird (Oscar-winning writer/director of The Incredibles and Ratatouille) and Michael Arndt (who penned 2010's biggest blockbuster Toy Story 3 and himself an Oscar winner for Little Miss Sunshine) to pen a week's worth of reshoots that took place a month back. Before anyone starts foul, director Joe Kosinski called the shots behind the cameras and even screenwriters Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz were still involved.

    Apparently the plan was to get Pixar onboard to beef up three areas they're well-known for: character, emotion and theme. Should be interesting to see how much said additional photography plays in the final product. I can't see this as a negative news-item.

    Droool; the wait for this one is genuinely hurting me now. I need you Tron. I need you now.

    I am very much looking forward to TRON Legacy and am glad they brought in Pixar to make it better. I hope at Comic Con they bring in Cindy Morgan (Lora Baines Bradley/Yori) for the TRON Legacy panel. It would be even cooler if they announce she'll have a cameo in the movie.

    There are many foods that increase cholesterol levels and you should avoid them as most of them are also bad for your figure. For example, butter and similar fatty products we use for cooking. These products have a high concentration on fat that together with other fat we take during the day can increase the total fat levels very much hpbwuv hpbwuv - bieber supra shoes.
