Written by the film’s co-producer Justin Springer with an introduction by production designer Darren Gilford and afterword by director Joe Kosinski, THE ART OF TRON:LEGACY is large-size hardback proudly shows off 160 pages of digital paintings, photographs and film stills from both 1982′s TRON and TRON:LEGACY to illustrate the sequel’s design lineage direct from the iconic original and how new design concepts evolved since. As the best of these making-of movie art books do, this volume is a splendid and beautiful journey into the world of Tron simply flipping pages and feasting your eyes on a couple hundred paintings and designs from the film — just a fraction of the hundreds more pieces of art created.

I just saw the film, and I loved it! Very dazzling. It makes the first film look ugly by comparison.
Perhaps, but it’s truly impossible to compare the technologies with which both films were made. TRON was just as cutting-edge for 1982 as TRON:LEGACY is today. Glad you enjoyed it though.
Yeah, I get your point. I still did like the first Tron, I just enjoyed this one more. Now I can’t wait for the third film.
