I didn't see the movie and I have no interest in doing so but how do you get a 100% grade when your other ratings aren't all 10s?

I didn't like the first TRON, so why is this one any different?

I take the total and times it by 20 (5 qualities 10 rank levels) and it was over 100.

This takes place AFTER the original Tron.

No, not really.

**joz** · 04-28-2011, 03:19 PM

It sure as hell sounds like it.

The main concept, but not the story

**Demon-Mask** · 04-28-2011, 07:27 PM

I can't say I have any interest in this movie whatsoever.
The first movie was great, in part because the whole "man get's sucked into a computer" thing hadn't been played out to death yet.

That, and Tron was one of those movies that didn't really need a sequel.

I highly disagree

**joz** · 04-29-2011, 03:52 PM

What exactly do you disagree with? The first movie being great or that the sequel wasn't necessary?

There should've been a sequel

**joz** · 04-29-2011, 04:20 PM

But there is.

And, if there weren't a sequel, would you feel the same way? Would you feel the same way if this movie went by another name and wasn't connected to Tron? Basically, did Tron really need a sequel, and could this movie stand on its own merits?
Nothing personal, I'm just wondering.

Eventually, Yes, Yes

Going over the plot of the movie and then rating all of your factors doesn't say a lot about your opinions on the movie.

**StarfoxFan2009** · 05-02-2011, 11:05 PM

Movie reviews, like games, need to be detailed... this was hardly detailed.

**joz** · 05-03-2011, 08:47 AM

While having more details makes a review better, they don't NEED to be detailed if the author doesn't feel like it.

**Dudebro** · 05-03-2011, 12:54 PM

Yeah but they do need substance. If a review is the equivalent of a normal post it's not gonna be ok.

**joz** · 05-03-2011, 12:59 PM

**Dudebro** · 05-03-2011, 01:02 PM

Were you agreeing or being sarcastic? Either way I'm one of the last people to care about reviews but I know we don't want ones with next to no effort.
