Mel at DropZone

Mel & I went to Playland on Saturday for the Ebay company picnic, and she and her friend/coworker Moneca braved the Dropzone.  I totally forgot to bring the camera, but another Ebayer brought a nice digital video camera and caught it, though he lost them for the big drop portion.

TR2N Trailer

This was shown at ComicCon a while back, but kept getting taken down by Disney for some reason.  The original is still up at Gizmodo but it’s barely watchable as it was captured by a camera phone, and the recording keeps turning sideways.

The version below has been rotated and stabilized by someone with some pretty great video skills.  It’s still low-rez, and a bit chopped in spots but that’s because of the original source.  This is as good as it gets until Disney decides to officially release this online.

Why they haven’t already baffles me.  This trailer gives me butterflies and makes me want MORE.  Besides, “you can’t take something off the Internet — that’s like trying to take the pee out of a swimming pool!” - Joe Rogan, NewsRadio.

Isn’t that a great teaser?  When the lightcycle first appeared I got chills.  Any geeky child of the 80s has to be excited about this.

We’re going to have to have a Tron viewing party soon.
