Perhaps it also has something to do with the lousy reviews the movie had and the fact it has virtually disappeared into the movieland ether...

Where has a Tron attraction been actually confirmed to be in development? I don't remember ever hearing or reading about it anyplace.

Give it a few years. Tron Legacy was very successful and a sequel has already been confirmed, so I can see a ride coming along in the not too distant future. It may be a little bit though.

personally, i could care less if it's been greenlit or cancelled for Disneyland. I'm more concerned about it still possibly being greenlit for the Magic Kingdom. The park that actually could use a new E-ticket.

It was not very successful...The movie cost 170 million to make; it brought in 171 million US...the only profit it made was from international release, and that information is sketchy at best.

All that information is readily available online.

The reviews were 48% average. Even audiences only rated it at 68% overall (rotten tomatoes). That's an overall D+ to F critical rating.

Disney has NOT announced a sequel to the movie. There is some speculation that because it got a 50-% return from international box office that it might be greenlighted for a sequel. This is perpetuated in the Wiki listing for the movie, and nowhere else by Disney or any other producer or studio spokesperson.

Look, the movie wasn't a bomb. It also wasn't a hit. It was a film that disappeared from movie theaters in less than 9 weeks. Currently, Disney is acting as if the film just didn't happen. They've discounted or sold-off all of the Tron merchandise (with the exception of a little bit left at WDW, especially the gift shop after Mission:Space) and they haven't gone out of their way to discuss it anywhere.

That's a bad omen for any further Tron anything at DIS or WDW.

Except for.... oh, I don't know... could it be elecTRONica?!? :lol:

ElecTRONica has been very succesful, and has been extended twice from its original January 3rd end date; the first extension was through Easter Vacation, and the second extension was through Labor Day.

ElecTRONica is going strong in DCA on weekends, and nightly at Easter break and this summer. And not once do they resort to Stich trying to get 8 year olds and Soccer Moms to do the Macarena. :lookaroun

The type of dance party elecTRONica is not. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXKN5WikUk0
