Tron needs to be imagineered!!
IMHO, Tron is a fantastic Disney classic, and deserves more than some ad graphics on the monorails. So I'm putting forth a question: How would you imagineer Tron into WDW?
(note to WDW imagineers reading this, if you steal my idea, I want a job..I've got a ton of ideas)
Here is my ideas:
Disney Quest: Redesigned to be Tron themed. Or even a full replica of Flynn's Arcade. You've already got the games. Even create "space Paranoids"
Monorail: WDW monorails should be WDW monorails. But if your going to do something, go the whole way or don't go at all. How about a slick, shiny all black monorail with illuminated blue neon striping throughout. (and maybe one with red) Have the MCP be the voice of the monorail.
Tron 3D: Original Tron 3D movie in Epcot (HISTA theater perhaps)
Tron interactive ride: Where riders get pulled into the computer. Utilizing 3D FX (Like Spiderman in Universal) along with interactivity like Toy Story Mania. All in DHS.

I think you gotta go with some sort of simulator/3D dark ride. based on the clips i've seen of the new flick, I think it's going to be huge. And I think if they could make the light cycle segment work in a 3D ride, they'll have achieved the ultimate attraction tie-in to a movie!

no one thinks a light bike coaster wouldnt be perfect...? Tron is begging for something like that...
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
Is there enough mileage in anything Tron for the parks?
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
not so much for the film franchise... but as an attraction it would probably be even more popular than the films i think...

That's a good way of looking at of course. There's a good handful of film-based attractions I can think of which were popular in their own right but their original (certainly Disney) subject material never became classics...
Mr. Toad, for one...
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
I think the whole Tomorrowland area should be rethemed to 1979's, The Black Hole.

How about Education For Death for Fantasyland?

I was thinking along the lines of a Space Mountain overlay. The Ghost Galaxy version has the monster guy chase coasters, why couldn't light cycles do the same?
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
true... but i am a Space Mountain idealist... i kinda like it the way it is...
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
I must admit I'm quite partial to the idea, but along the lines of Ghost Galaxy - an occasional overlay, not an outright change.
Re: Tron needs to be imagineered!!
cant tron replace the speedway or better yet Stitch
