Flynn lives! Time to rise up and join the revolution comrades, and what better way to get started than checking out these awesome propoganda-style Tron posters by illustrator Steve Thomas.
Steve specialises in arcade-related retro designs (that it has to be said would look amazing on my wall at home, so hopefully he’s reading this and feeling generous…),and retro-futuristic travel guides, with a number of very cool prints available over at zazzle. Check out Steve’s site for more of his stuff, including some great takes on Donkey Kong, Frogger and even everyone’s favourite mediaeval knights on flying ostriches actioner Joust.
Newsgush: Tron 3 Is Go!

Wow -two newsgushes in a row for Disney’s hyped-through-the-roof Tron series. Yep -series.
While Tron: Legacy may be a few months away from screens, it seems the house of mouse has enough confidence to greenlight a third installment. According to the Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog, they’ve already signed up ‘Lost’ writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz to penthe continuing adventures of Jeff Bridges in cyberspace.
Of course, this may depend on Tron: Legacy’s ability to fend off the box office kryptonite that doomed it’s predesessor to a life of dodgy VHS cultism…
What do you thing? Are we ready for more Tron, or is this headed for a disaster of Matrix-like proportions?
Newsgush: Tron Legacy Goes Viral
0 CommentsFebruary 16, 2010 – 10:39 am
So far we’ve only had some gorgeous light cycle shots to clue us in on happenings in Tron: Legacy’s computer generated world, but it looks like marketing – or the Master Control Program – are ramping things up online, starting with a truly odd site over at www.flynnlives.com which is playing a weird flash graphic. Rumours are already circulating that it’s a variation on a binary coundown clock, set to stop at: February 24th at 2:30 PM ET.
Whether this ominous date will bring us a new trailer or an invasion by holographic flying tanks remains to be seen…

Normally we don’t go for direct press puffery here at STS – prefering to think our journalistic integrity is worth a pint or two at least – but the 25th of February sees the premiere of Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland, and we’re willing to make an exception as the 3D extravaganza and the nice chaps from Disney will be transforming London’s Leicester Square for the event in aid of The Prince’s Foundation for Children & the Arts
The entire cast—including Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, Anne Hathaway as the White Queen and newcomer Mia Wasikowska as Alice will be attending, and hopefully we’ll be able to distinguish Tim burton and Helena Bonham-Carter from the drunks stumbling out of Chinatown as the entire place gets it’s bi-annual scrub down in preperation for a royal visit (that’s HRH The Prince of Wales, not Stephen Fry).
We’ve already seen some pretty stunning visuals – including the (did we mention it was exclusive? we probably should) new image of Anne Hathawy above – from the movie, as Alice “embarks on a fantastical journey to find her true destiny and end the Red Queen’s reign of terror” apparently. Oh -and it’s in lovely 3D – not sure how that works with the Cheshire Cat but hey-ho.
Alice in Wonderland is released across the UK on March the 5th on 2D, Disney Digital 3D and IMAX® 3D screens, so come on down and join in as we attempt to sneak past the bouncers and cram your camera full of celebrity goodness in aid of a good cause.
