Tron Legacy fact: Tron Trilogy

Tron Legacy fact #8

Apparently, they are already preparing for a third part to the Tron empire. Disney has commissioned Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis to develop a plot.  This duo was part of the writing staff for the TV series Lost.  I guess the likelihood of this franchise producing a trilogy will depend on the box office success of Tron Legacy.

Inception Interpreted

Have you seen Inception yet?  If you haven’t, drop whatever you’re doing and go see it now.  Yeah, it’s that good.  Here’s my review of Inception.

**SPOILER ALERT**

Do not click the following link if you do not want to know what happens in the movie.

Peter Hall has done an excellent job of examining the movie and providing his opinion of what really happened as well as some plot holes he feels exist in the story.  I’m inclined to agree with interpretation #5, but Hall makes some good points in all the interpretations.

First, go see Inception then read Hall’s examination of it: Dissecting Inception: Six Interpretations and Five Plot Holes.
