Tron 3 Is Coming and So Am I
Another clip from next week’s Tron: Legacy DVD has leaked onto the nettertubes, and unlike the last one, this very specifically teases a Tron 3 with a conversation between its two (assumed) antagonists. Now, we all knew Dillinger Jr. was going to be the major bad guy in the next one, but this clip indicates the return of my favorite Tron character of all as his partner — the MCP. I’m not going to lie, when I heard its voice (and can anyone tell if that’s David Warner or not?) I got so excited my pants disintegrated. (Via /Film)
