TRON LEGACY Coming At You in IMAX Size

As some of you may or may not know, Disney held a trailer unveiling event for TRON LEGACY across the nation this past Saturday.  At the Los Angeles premiere, TRON LEGACY director Joseph Kosinski and the director of the original TRON, Steven Lisberger, were on hand for a Q&A following the teaser.  However, the biggest news, both literally and figuratively, came after the event when FirstShowing and SlashFilm caught up with Kosinski for a quick chat.

During that chat, it was revealed TRON LEGACY would be featuring scenes in the full, 1.7:1 aspect ration exclusively for IMAX.  If you’re not 100% sure what that insinuates, Christopher Nolan utilized the same style for many scenes in 2008′s THE DARK KNIGHT, utilizing the full capability of the IMAX’s immense size.  Kosinski revealed there would be five such action scenes featured in TRON LEGACY.

As if TRON LEGACY and its 3-D qualities weren’t going to be immersive enough, these IMAX elements are going to completely transport the audience fully into the TRON world.  Here’s hoping Kosinski’s usage of the technique is as smoothly utilized as Nolan’s scenes were in THE DARK KNIGHT.

SlashFilm was also told Disney would be releasing a special, online trailer for TRON LEGACY showing the difference audiences are to expect in the IMAX presentation.  TRON LEGACY is set for release on December 17th.
