Nerd Reactor writes: Today Marvel sent out a press release, announcing that the upcoming comic book covers would feature Tron versions of their biggest superheroes. This is possibly the best thing to come out of Disney’s acquiring of Marvel Entertainment. The new covers are part of the promotion for Disney’s Tron: Legacy.
The Big Lebowski and Tron: Legacy star Jeff Bridges has announced tonight that he's been diagnosed with cancer.
With Captain Marvel, we see a young Nick Fury, with both his eyes intact and a smooth, youthful look. At the grand old age of 70, Samuel L. Jackson is able to relive his youth, thanks to movie magic- and a lot of post-production work. Find out what other actors have drank Hollywood's digital fountain of youth.

Between all the nostalgic love for the 1982 original and a stellar in-your-face ad campaign, expectations for Tron: Legacy were higher than Kevin Flynn’s eventual broadband bill. Frankly, with fever-pitch anticipation, we were expecting Flynn’s own “digital frontier to reshape the human condition”. Instead, all we got was an incredible- looking movie that successfully updated its predecessor’s hokey concept and gave us one of the best soundtracks of the decade. So... er... what’s the problem again?
Has this guy been living under a rock? The general consensus on this film is that is pretty damn good. Tron 1 is pretty badass too. The reaction to Tron 3 was huge. I can't forgive Disney for that unless they decide to put it back in motion.
And if you're going to argue with me, don't even dare bringing up a Rotten Tomatoes score of all things.
Yeah I really liked this movie. Most people I think thought it was pretty good. The soundtrack is top notch. Best soundtrack in recent memory.
The original is so good though? I bet it's the way it looks. Is it the way it looks? Is that why?
Nice, I caught these earlier today and thought they were pretty sweet. It's cool to see how Disney is doing cool little marketing things to incorporate the two properties they have now. It goes a long way towards showing Marvel fans that they aren't going to destroy everything they love about the comics. They're going to be doing some cool stuff and I'm glad to see it all. Let's just hope that the Marvel characters stay out of the next Kingdom Hearts game though...
Wow thats actually pretty sweet lol. Its a nice little limited edition collectors item, but nothing more than that.
