this 2003 release film saw tabu playing the role of a terrorist who traps ajay kaul played by sunny . how he escapes this trap and saves other innocent people in the film is an interesting watch .

movie : rang de basanti this film is a 2006 indian drama film written , produced and directed by rakeysh omprakash mehra . the literal meaning of the title can be translated as “paint me with the colours of spring”

movie : namastey london this film is a 2007 indian drama film directed by vipul amrutlal shah , starring akshay kumar and katrina kaif . it also stars rishi kapoor , javed sheikh , upen patel and clive standen in supporting roles .

the latest of the love - of - country movies is ' ' maa tujhhe salaam ' ' ( ' ' mother , i salute you ' ' ) . it opened today , on india ' s republic day , with a slogan that starts , ' ' if you ask for milk , i ' ll give you pudding , ' ' but goes on , ' ' if you ask for kashmir , i ' ll tear you apart . ' ' ( the lines rhyme in hindi . )

this fight of two police officers against the terrorist , who is on the prowl in the city , makes the whole plot of the film , farz . sunny plays the role of a strong - headed dcp karan singh in the film .

in this multi - starer war film , sunny played the role of major kuldip singh chandpuri . the actor ' s role of a punjabi soldier is very strong - headed and true patriot and proved that he truly loves his country and will do anything for it . the film was released in the year 1997 and was awarded the nargis dutt award for best feature film on national integration .

sunny ' s patriotic instincts have now completely taken him over , and this time they ' ve poked him to cough up an irritating hairball in the form of one ' maa tujhe salaam ' . nothing like his previous efforts like gadar and indian , this flick makes a loud embarrassing thud as it crashes down in the form of a humongous flop .

, watching tabu in this film is a huge disappointment . an actress of her calibre is reduced to an excuse for a song here .

movie : chak de india this film is a 2007 indian sports film , directed by shimit amin and rob miller ( sports scenes ) produced by aditya chopra , with music by salim–sulaiman and a screenplay by jaideep sahni . it explores religious bigotry , the legacy of the partition of india

overall : an insult to intelligence , a total and utter waste of time and money . if you have seen this film , then sorry . if you have not seen this film , great ! don ' t even watch it for free ! wait for line of control to see a real war movie , this was just something that we should all forget and so should the makers of the film - just pretend it did not happen . . .

movie : kaante the film’s central plot is based on quentin tarantino’s reservoir dogs ( 1992 ) . according to tarantino , kaante is his favorite among the many inspirations from his film . hindustani jaisa bhi ho , usse do cheezein bilkul pasand nahin … ek hai cricket mein haar … doosra apne desh pe vaar - kumar gaurav

sunny is seen playing the role of arun sharma , a raw agent in the film . his mission in the film was to fight against the terrorists across the border . he even makes his wife , played by preity zinta , take up the challenge and become a spy to keep a check on the terrorist activities in pakistan .

ere ' s a suggestion : don ' t get deceived by this cleverly titled and marketed film , releasing at a time when india - pakistan relations are at their lowest .

here ' s a suggestion : don ' t get deceived by this cleverly titled and marketed film , releasing at a time when india - pakistan relations are at their lowest .

the necessity of a loyal indian muslim in a film of this sort is not lost on mr . verma . ' ' the muslim character from kashmir is fighting muslims from pakistan for hindustan , ' ' he said , beaming . ' ' people think muslims do not love india . i want to prove in this film they are true indians . ' '

the film is based in zhonabad , a place situated in the high - altitude mountain ravines near the border of india . pratap singh gets posted in this inaccessible area , after captain sonia (

conventional films begins with plots . if that ' s the premise , then this one is most unconventional . there is no plot to speak of in this film . here ' s what i could glean from what i saw :

inspector rajveer singh protects a child as a terrorist has made him a target for a revenge . the actor ' s kickass action and strong motive to protect the boy is one of the best usp ' s of the film .

the bombay film industry was peopled by its refugees . the popular films of that era toed the official state line of hindu - muslim brotherhood , alluding to india - pakistan relations in allegorical tales of sibling rivalry or unrequited love .

in the film , sunny is seen as the wheelchair - bound former air force pilot vikram shergill . he shares the story of his grief of his brother ' s death played by bobby deol to the leads sohail khan and vatsal seth .

movie : border this is an indian blockbuster hindi war drama film based on the battle of longewala . j . p . dutta directed and produced this war epic which stars sunny deol , sunil shetty , akshaye khanna , jackie shroff in pivotal roles .

mts comes across as a film made keeping in mind sunny deol ? s current image . the film is all about cross - border terrorism and calls a spade a spade . technically , the film is good , but somehow the screenplay lets you down at places . arbaaz khan ? s romantic track is completely avoidable . tinu verma ? s action scenes are brilliantly shot and are credit worthy . the fight master has chosen a suitable topic to make his debut . but the music ( sajid - wajid ) is a let down . raju kay gee ` ` s cinematography and k . k singh ? s dialogues are the definite highlights of this movie . in fact , most of the dialogues are sure to get whistles from the front - benchers . as for the cast , sunny deol is in top form in this tailor - made role . tabu looks distinctly out of place in some places but arbaaz khan has put in a lot into this film and it shows . the film has opened very well in most places , thanks to sunny deol but whether or not it continues its victory march is to be seen . there are many aspects that should make it a success , especially the indo - pak theme and the hard - hitting dialogues that are sure to be remembered for years . after gadar and indian , sunny deol has hit the bulls - eye once again . what a hat trick !

this film was set during the time of indian partition . the movie was a blockbuster and sunny ' s hard - hitting dialogues is still said mouthed by his fans even now . the actor played the role of tara singh and isn ' t this one of his best performances ?

where does that leave the hero of this film , albaksh ( arbaaz khan ) ? an orphan brought up by lala , he is obliged to be part of all his shoddy dealings . by the interval , however , both albaksh and the audience realise they have been taken for a ride .

last year ' s lavish epic ' ' gadar , ' ' a sikh - muslim love story set in the period of partition , turned out to be a colossal box - office success . the film also unleashed protests from some muslim quarters , though that apparently did not keep fans from flooding the theaters .

movie : gadar : ek prem katha bollywood action movie starring sunny deol , amisha patel , and amrish puri set in the time of the indian partition . gadar : ek prem katha was a box office phenomenon and sold more tickets at theatres in india than any film in history apart from sholay ( 1975 )

maa tujhee salaam has been in a state of controversy since the first promo ' s came out ; first was its strong anti - pakistani stance that came under intense fire , and then that the director has mislead the public showing sunny deol in the main promo ' s - while sunny deol ' s role is not the lead role . in the current political atmosphere in india , with the country at the brink of war , many trade analysts , members of the public , including myself - were convinced mts will become a monestrous success and may even rewrite box office history . in fact somewhere along the way , i was convinced mts may will be a decent flick . we were wrong ! mts has collapsed like a house of cards at the box office . however i am going to dispel a common miss - conception among people , that the film has mainly failed due to the deception staged by tinu verma , using sunny ' s name to boaster the chances of a movie that stars a flop arbaaz khan as the hero and has a first time action director as the director . this may indeed be one of the reasons of its failure , but watch this torture and perhaps the other reasons will speak volumes to you !

overall ; technically the film is only good in parts , while other sequences have been shot and executed with outdated methods ; the explosions shots in particular are very well executed ; the opening indian movies and mts logo looks very slick . however the movie is completely hampered by bad sound and dubbing , jerky cinematography and dull action and editing .

here are a few other implausible gems i noticed : for director tinnu verma , a brilliant scheme to nab terrorists would be to have intelligence officer tabu shake her butt , belly and all , and burst into song . also , indians are shown freely ridiculing pakistanis . the pakistanis of this film pride themselves on being two - faced traitors .

maa tujhe salaam is sunny deol ' s 3rd movie of the patriotic trilogy of 2001 . after the major successes of gadar and indian , sunny is at it again , this time in kashmir as a commando , protecting the villagers against terrorists . sunny deol is the real macho - man ( muscleman ) among the other tough stars , and he is just brilliant in the action scenes , which are awesome . i just love it when he roars , as that just boils your blood so hard that you will do anything for the honor of your country . tabu does well as a supporting commando , but the movie belongs to sunny deol . he is just the best action hero in bollywood . the climax was just amazing and mind - blowing , as sunny blows out baddies with big machine guns . later , he is hit by bullets while going uphill with the indian flag , but sunny is just unstoppable , and he vanquishes the baddies and then is hospitalized and survives ( ending like imtihaan ) . sunny wins the day , yet again . jai hind ! sunny deol zindabad !

starcast : sunny deol , arbaaz khan , tabudirector : tinu vermaproducer : mahinder dhariwalmusic director : sajid - wajidsynopsis : ' mts ' tells the story of a brave indian army officer major pratap singh ( sunny deol ) , who foils a pakistani infiltration attempt . the action takes place somewhere in the border town of zhonabad , which is a high mountain ravine near the international border of kashmir . the villain , lala ( tinu verma ) lives with his henchmen in zhonabad . lala ' s ancestors were landlords and that ' s why he is a respected and powerful man in his hometown . he ' s also an enemy agent . he and his men are responsible for the infiltration of terrorists and ammunition through mountainous passes . lala takes into confidence a young illiterate village local albaksh ( arbaaz khan ) . albaksh works like a slave for lala without knowing that lala is anti - national . captain sonia ( tabu ) gets information about the activities of lala and albaksh . she passes it on to the military headquarters . major pratap is ordered to proceed immediately to zhonabad . in the meantime albaksh comes to know about lala ' s real activities . he opposes him and lala becomes his enemy . lala cooks up stories and falsely implicates albaksh , who becomes a traitor in the eyes of the law . he is arrested and thrown into jail . when major pratap interrogates him , albaksh relates the real story , and tells him about the planning of a vast terrorist infiltration into the country through zhonabad . as time is running out fast major pratap decides to fight the terrorists with the help of albaksh . rest , as they say , is history . good triumphs over evil in the end . analysis : ' mtj ' is an out and out arbaaz khan film . he is the hero of the film and sunny deol just makes a special appearance in the film ( for his friend tinu verma , who makes his debut as director ) . arbaaz emerges as the dark horse of the film . he comes across as someone who can fight as well as act . however , the story and plot of the film does not live up to one ' s expectations . sold as a sunny starrer ( though he is not the hero of the film ) this ' commercial patriotism ' flick is strictly for the masses . dialogues like ' doodh maango kheer denge , kashmir maango cheer denge ' play to the gallery . to sum up even if you miss it , you have nothing to lose .

today , the plots , lifted as they are from newspapers , are just this side of fiction . but hindi movies being what they are , fantasy is hardly spared . song and dance routines still break out on the snow - capped mountains of kashmir , though these days , the films are more likely to be shot in a hill station far removed from kashmir , which is considered too dangerous for film sets .

the story for ' ' yeh dil aashiqanaa ' ' ( ' ' this heart in love ' ' ) has been lifted from the 1999 hijacking of an indian airlines plane by pakistan - based terrorists . the hijacking supplies what the film ' s director , kuku kohli , describes as the spicy stuff that every romantic plot demands . ' ' for a love story , there should be some mirch masala , a little hurdle , ' ' he said . ' ' it shouldn ' t go so smooth . ' '

one film in the making , apparently based on the 1999 india - pakistan war in kargil , is called ' ' loc , ' ' the acronym for the so - called line of control dividing indian - and pakistan - held kashmir . a spate of biographical films about indian ' ' freedom fighters ' ' are also on the way , notably about men who rejected gandhian nonviolence in favor of armed struggle against british rule : three are about bhagat singh , an anticolonial guerrilla leader hanged by the british in 1923 .

will these wannabe directors never learn ! ! how many times will we have to tell them , we cannot be taken for granted ! geez everybody wants to be a director or producer now days ; not every tom , * * * * and harry can direct . direction needs a passion for film making , a desire to provide the audiences with a near perfect product ; tinu verma does not to do that ; in fact maybe he thought we needed a near disastrous product - but tinu has even gone further than that .

how would you feel if someone took the life story of one of your loves ones and turned into complete nonsense ? similarly , tinu verma has taken an important part of india ' s history and presented in a distorted and ridiculous way ; that was the conflict of kargil . mts is a slap on the face of the relatives and loved ones of all those that died in this conflict , a slap on the face of our armed forces . how mts has dealt with kargil ( was it dealing with it at all ) makes the whole kargil episode seem insignificant . one simply cannot realise the scope of that episode from this film . its sad mts was even made , its even sadder that the indian government let it pass , that too with glowing reviews . j . p dutta ' s loc will be a true account of the kargil conflict and i cam say without even seeing loc , that it will be a million times better than this mts garbage .

awesome acting by ranbir and soonam as well . no doubt paresh rawal did his excellent role . . worth…

mts supposedly deals with the kargil theme , though in reality , has zilch to do with it . was this a war movie ? who knows ? was it a love story with the background of partition - gadar in snow coverd mountains anyone ? nope ! what was it then ? simple ! it ' s a complete and utter mess that deserves nothing less , but the trash can .

where should i begin with the story ? hmm , im not sure where to start ? ok wait , i remember ( i saw it 2 hours ago , but i ' ve already forgotten it ) well there is the indian army , barely made up of 20 people , there is mr pradeep , nevermind forgot the name . lets just saw there is sunny deol - oh and he has a love interest , miss captain sonia ( tabu ) ( no i never can forget someone with the name sonia ) they occasionally go sing and dance underneath trees , except in this case snow covered trees . . . oh and there is an army commander who cares more about hearing his name and song be announced on radio , than the country . another army commander , cares more about his hair ( or rather lack of ) rather than his country . oh and there is mr arbaaz khan , who is a patriotric kashmiri muslim , that finds out his god father ( lalla ) is a big player in terrorism . . oh and arbaaz khan has a cute girlfriend , that he occasionally goes to , but don ' t worry most of the songs are given to the sunny deol and tabu duo . hmm is there anything else , oh yeah the terrorists are planning a major invasion of kashmir , which obviously is thwarted by our superstar sunny deol and they all lived happily ever after .

what screenplay ? take out the screen all together . it was all play , perhaps tinu verma was treating movie making as some sort of game or trivial task - you know a bit of shoot em ups here and there , then a song or two , some skin , some exchanges of love , some religion and nationalist crap and then a totally unbelievable climax ! there you have it , mts complete ; now just send it off to the editing table and post production , publicise it and release it during war time - now just wait for the sound of the cash registers ! ( grin )

the indian army ; where is the discipline ? the seniors are taking to their peers as if it ' s a tea party ? one soldiers cares more about being announced on the radio and his jokes , another cares more about being bald ? the others just stand there as scenery . there is absolutely no discipline whatsoever , this is suppose to be an army , not a circus !

a dozen indian armed soldiers - incoming are hundreds of terrorist forces , armed with machine guns ( now comes the realistic bit ) - they completely slaughter the 5 measly armed indian soldiers ( but after all tinu verma strikes again ) on comes arbaaz khan armed with two machine guns , ummm hes running directly in their direction and firing at them ( ironically he does not even get hit once ) and all of a sudden the enemy forces feel the heavy fire and cannot proceed , so they run away ( " its arbaazzz , runnnn " ) that is pretty ironic considering the indian soldiers were a dozen and posed no threat to the enemy forces , but one arbaaz totally changed the equation . i see another sunny deol in the making

in a similar sequence , where sunny deol is running directly in the direction of enemy fire , the enemy manages to hit everywhere else , everywhere around him , except him and one sunny deol manages to overcome the entire army .

overall the story , script direction all got left behind in pre production , the final product only has one story , one direction - and that is it will become history ' s rubbish and head in the direction of total oblivion .

no reviews needed ; - i mean how can you expect someone with the name , " sajid wajid " to give a normal score ? songs just pop up out of nowhere , have no meaning , are extremely outdated and have dull picturizations .

jerky cinematography only alleviated by the beautiful location of kashmir , but no credit to the director of photography , however to his credit , he has executed a horse race sequence beautifully . bad sound ; sound seems to alternate between high and low whilst in the same scene , can be somewhat excruciating ! dubbing is extremely bad . special effects are poor , while some are ok - the explosions are very good however . background scores range from bad to good . tinu verma ' s action is dulll ; did somebody really call this " akin to hollywood " - which hollywood films are they watching ? 40 ' s stuff ? hmm watch hollywood action movies from as earliest as 80 ' s , and you ' ll see how " akin " mts ' s action is . the only aspects i liked about the action , was the gun shots and their impact , otherwise the rest is a dull show .

tabu ; as captain sonia is wasted , the critically acclaimed actress that has won for performances in chandini bar and astitiva , has actually done this role . was that even tabu , maybe they cloned her or something ? she is reduced to merely an excuse for a song and dance and for some exchanges of love . ( i actually ended up forwarding all these scenes )

arbaaz khan : he flopped for a reason - and that is that he simply cannot act . his dialogue delivery is poor and i find his voice rather annoying . he seems to have the same expression in every scene . his career should be considered finished !

brhadharanyaka upanishad - sloka 1 . 4 . 2 and 1 . 4 . 3

potboiler , a revenge drama , a love story . contrary to its title ,

major pratap singh ( sunny deol ) is a valiant army officer , leading his battalion into the snow - clad mountains of kargil . when not swapping manly stories about his escapades with terrorists , pratap serenades dream girl sonia ( tabu ) at exotic locations . sonia is a military intelligence officer herself . though there is not much of that to go by - - her intelligence is limited to romancing her beau .

cut to jhonabad ( a small town at the foothills of kashmir ) , which functions on the whims and fancies of lala sultan ( tinnu verma ) . lala , along with his tyrant brothers , secretly nurses the dream of turning kashmir into an independent nation . he therefore collaborates with pakistani terrorist gulbaksh ( sudesh berry ) who actually wants to merge kashmir and pakistan .

what happens next ? good wins over evil , of course . pakistan is asked to take a hike .

on the acting front , arbaaz khan exudes raw intensity and vulnerability . his newly acquired toned and tough physique adds a roughness to his reckless character .

sunny deol , in a glorified special appearance , is the stuff heroes are made of : he woos the girl , fights the baddies , mouths anti - pakistani lines , wins the battle and survives three bullets after a miraculous operation .

as for first - timer tinnu verma , his direction and acting skills leave a lot to be desired . action sequences are his forte . he would be better off sticking to them . the music only lenghtens this brainless adventure for 40 extra minutes .

. you are , truly , better off watching the war of words between prime minister atal bihari vajpayee and president general pervez musharraf on your television .

sunny deol is celebrating his birthday today . the action man of bollywood has turned 59 today . the actor , who is famous for his action packed avatar in several of his films , has become synonymous with his names . moreover , the actor has donned the role of a true indian in many of his films . with his strong character and power - packed dialogues , his films are a must watch during national holidays , celebrated in the nation .

on his birthday , let ' s take a look at some of sunny ' s films .

in this 2001 release , the damini actor played an honest deputy commissioner of police named rajshekhar azad whose only aim was to wipe out corruption in every possible way . he fights with the dreaded terrorist and his toughness and strong character brings about the best in him .

loosely based on the life and times of shaheed bhagat singh , sunny played chandrashekhar azad , while his younger brother bobby deol played the titular role of bhagat singh . the 59 - year - old actor ' s portrayal of azad was well - received by the audiences and the critics .

bollywood , that keen observer and welder of the national mood , has tapped into india ' s current high - octane nationalism , with tales of swaggering , self - assured heroes who beat back terrorist ' ' baddies ' ' and their pakistani henchmen .

the diplomatic niceties of the past , when pakistan was only alluded to as some unnamed malevolent power , have been scrapped . so too the allegories that were a staple of hindi movies past , when the india - pakistan divide was likely to be cast as a tale of ill - fated sibling rivalry .

' ' we want to just hype the emotions of indians for the country , ' ' said its director , tinu verma , a rajasthani stuntman turned filmmaker .

sunny deol , the leading man of the new vogue of pictures , said it was high time for patriotism to return to the screen . ' ' people are looking for true heroes , ' ' he said in an interview in his office , sunny villa , in the swanky seaside neighborhood of juhu beach .

the films of today were simply not possible 50 years ago , when the horrors of partition were still fresh in the minds of filmmakers . partition , which carved india and pakistan out of the british empire , forced 12 million people to move from their homes and killed roughly a million people .

the reasons for the ascendance of today ' s brassy nationalism in bollywood are varied , as much mercenary as sociological .

' ' nothing succeeds like success , ' ' said taran adarsh , the editor of trade guide , an industry weekly . ' ' there has been a change in thinking : people find patriotic films appealing . and when you have a ' gadar , ' you have 10 producers following suit . ' '

ashis nandy , a political psychologist at the center for the study of developing societies in new delhi , said he saw in the latest trend a reflection of the desires of the swelling indian urban middle class and those of the government it elected , led by the hindu nationalist bharatiya janata party . ' ' it ' s only kind of binding cement left , ' ' he said of such nationalism .

besides , he said , ' ' i am an action filmmaker . this is a very good subject for me . ' '

indian films , though officially banned in pakistan , are hugely popular there . even the patriotic numbers are ferried over to the other side soon after they are released here .

they land on the stacks in the video store in durre ahmed ' s neighborhood in lahore , for instance . unwitting fans , eager for the latest bollywood release , snatch them up , the shopkeeper tells her , only to bring them back the next day with a volley of epithets .

dr . ahmed , a psychologist who teaches at the national college of art in lahore and who visits india frequently , has seen many of the films herself . they have filled her with dismay . pakistan ' s popular culture , she says , is not nearly as obsessed with the enemy nation as india ' s seems to be at the moment .

' ' i wonder at the general , popular level if it bodes well for india - pakistan relations , ' ' she said by telephone from lahore . ' ' if you have less and less contact , which is what ' s happening now , and the void is being filled with these , frankly , exaggerated caricatures of the other as villain , that is just going to make things worse .

' ' we ' re both such emotional nations , ' ' she added . ' ' in some sense , we ' re the same , which is why we can ' t communicate with each other . it ' s sort of like talking to yourself in the mirror . ' '

soundtrack to disney ' s 2010 film " tron : legacy " . it is the first film score production by daft punk , in collaboration with joseph trapanese and accompanied by gavin greenaway . " derezzed " was released as the only single . seven bonus tracks were released on various special editions , and later compiled in 2011 under " tron : legacy ( collector ' s digital ep ) " .

my final “lost” interview is with joseph trapanese who collaborated with thomas bangalter and guy - manuel de homem - cristo ( better know as daft punk ) for two years helping them bring their score for tron : legacy ( 2010 ) to the big screen . watching this film for the first time back in 2010 was an incredible learning experience for me . nobody who writes publicly about film or music ( or both ) wants to admit having made up their mind to not like something before experiencing it ; however , that’s pretty much where i was with tron : legacy .

. . . the director has a good eye and a great lead actor to pull legacy through .

in december 2010 , flynn frontier appeared ( linked from the flynn lives site ) , featuring info about books authored by kevin flynn before his disappearance .

like the original , tron : legacy obsesses over technology and style but forgets important details like character and plot .

everyone wants to know more and more about tron legacy . for those of you not at comic - con , we have transcribed the entire tron legacy panel which took place on thursday . here is the panel’s official description :

, it looked like 2010 would see more tickets sold than 2009 , and it could crush the total box office record . that seems like a long , long time ago . memorial day was a disaster and , despite a few bright spots here and there , the box office has never regained its early shine . now the question is not whether 2010 will see more tickets sold ; it won ' t . the question is whether or not 2010 ' s total box office can remain above 2009 ' s pace . if

is a monster hit , it could go along way to helping save a win for 2010 . it ' s going to need to be a monster hit to keep pace with

tony gilroy was announced as writer and director on june 9 , 2010 . the film was set as a " sidequel " , rather than a direct sequel or reboot of the franchise . shooting began in january of 2012 , in new york and manila , philippines .

aspiring for psychological drama rather than action movie , the film takes itself far too seriously .

the question is : can tron become a solid franchise for disney ? the original 1982 film was an impressive technical feat , but struggled financially before becoming a cult classic . while the 2010 reboot certainly laid down the possibility of a revitalized series , reception to the film was mixed , not helped by its mediocre story and acting . tron : legacy did well enough at the box office to warrant some pre - production work on a sequel , but seemed to be doomed by the general state of the movie industry at the time . this is hardly the strongest of bases upon which to launch a major film franchise .

. granted , christmas eve landing on a friday did have a lot to do with that , but this is still a terrible result . year - to - date , 2010 has now earned $ 10 . 33 billion , which is about $ 50 million behind last year ' s pace . it won ' t get better next weekend , so 2010 won ' t be setting the record .

the long wait , a short film by award - winning writer / director wolfgang bodison ( a few good men , er , csi : ny / miami , ncis ) and lead actress elizabeth yoder ( grace ) , took the coveted “storytelling achievement” award at the 2014 laughlin international film festival . this accolade is the latest in a series of honors bestowed by international festivals , audiences and critics , including playhouse west film festival’s prestigious “best director” award for bodison , “best actor” and “best short film” awards at the 2014 beaufort international film festival and “best actress” at the jersey shore shorts film festival for yoder .

the bourne legacy is the fourth feature film in the jason bourne film series and was released on august 10 , 2012 . it ' s title is taken from the novel by eric van lustbader . it is directed by tony gilroy , screenwriter of the first three films , and stars jeremy renner as cia agent aaron cross . matt damon did not return for the film , as a result only pictures of him as bourne are seen .

was released this weekend last year , the year - on - year comparisons look bad for the industry as a whole , and 2010 looks certain to lag 2009 in tickets sold , and possibly in total revenue .

the same trailer was shown again at comic - con in july 2009 but noticed that the films title had changed from tr2n to tron : legacy .

it ' s the end of the year and there are certainly some question marks that will be answered over the next 31 days . are there any monster hits left for 2010 ? will 2010 manage to stay ahead of 2009 ? will it actually start winning again at the box office ? unfortunately , the answer to all three of those questions might be no . first of all , of the november wide releases , only two will really match expectations , with a couple of others coming close . so december starts on the weak side . additionally , last december saw the release of avatar , the biggest box office hit of all time . there ' s no film coming out this month that will match that movie . in fact , there ' s a chance no movie coming out this month will match last december ' s second place film , alvin and the chipmunks : the squeakquel . this means that even though 2010 had a $ 300 million lead over 2009 just a few weeks ago , by the end of the year , 2010 might fail to break last year ' s record . more . . .

it ' s a triumph of streamlined design , but tron : legacy never enters the fourth dimension where it ' s worth a plugged nickel to humans .

kosinski noted that at the time he was shooting legacy , disney had yet to pick up marvel or lucasfilm . owning those huge properties would likely mean that any sort of re - reboot of the tron story would come up against a high bar , given the box office success of those properties . that said , tron : legacy did a decent job of picking up from a film that was almost three decades old . kosinski’s plans for a sequel “invasion” movie makes perfect sense given what legacy established about programs coming to the real world , and it would be interesting to see just what “source code” this potential third film could draw from , and what role this new character would play in it .

a sad attempt to capture some of the magic of a dated film . the special effects were pretty good though .

the hollywood reporter ’ s sources say that this potential new film won’t be a direct sequel to tron : legacy . instead , it will be “built out of the source code of the deleted tron 3 script , ” with leto playing a character from that screenplay named ares .

[ tron legacy ] feels pointless - like a computer in someone ' s basement that was built for no purpose other than noodling on , twenty years ago .

if you choose to see tron : legacy , leave your brain at home , and be ready to watch what boils down to a great dramatic daft punk music video .

with an estimated budget of just 500 . 000 dollars " legacy " achieves to tell an intriguing story and keep you invested at all time . well worth a watch .

thomas bangalter and guy - manuel de homem - christo , better known as the parisian electronic band daft punk , composed the film ' s score . the score was performed by an 85 - piece orchestra , who recorded the tracks at air lyndhurst studios in london , uk . the soundtrack was released on 7 december 2010 . journey ' s 1983 single " separate ways ( worlds apart ) " and eurythmic ' s 1983 single " sweet dreams ( are made of this ) " are also featured in the film .

the original motion picture score for tron : legacy was composed and produced by daft punk . the album peaked at no . 4 on the billboard 200 and was the highest charting score soundtrack in over a decade . walt disney records will be releasing tron : legacy r3c0nf1gur3d , an album featuring 14 remixes of the original motion picture score on april 5 .

flynn ' s office appears to contain the same couch as in the first film , and still has a parking meter in it . the hand - held video game flynn briefly played in the first film can be seen on the couch in the arcade basement .

the word comes a couple of days after tron : legacy and oblivion director joseph kosinski spoke with collider during a q & a following a recent imax screening of legacy . he noted that the long - gestating tron 3 was in “cryogenic freeze , ” but that it wasn’t dead , just “just sitting for the right time to move forward with it . ”

, and that film earned just over $ 30 million in the u . k . along and almost $ 300 million internationally . overall

out of the equation , then 2011 would have beaten 2010 over the weekend , but even here the margin of victory would have been lower than the ticket price inflation . it is way too early to judge how well 2011 will do compared to 2010 , but so far it is 23 % off of last year ' s pace at $ 281 million to $ 365 million . i expect that gap will grow in terms of raw dollars , but by the time memorial day rolls around , 2011 could start rattling off some wins .

the us release of the tron : legacy blu - ray contains a handful of hidden easter eggs as part of the tron : the next day feature , some potentially setting up the storyline of the third film . the hidden clips are accessible via a " space paranoids " arcade - style high scores menu following the short film , requiring the viewer to type in various high score initials to access the clips . the hidden clips included are as follows :

tron 3 , according to kosinski , would have been an invasion movie starring garrett hedlund’s sam flynn and olivia wilde’s quorra , who returned to the real world from the virtual one in the 2010 film . tron 3 had been in the works , but was never greenlit , and was shelved in 2015 following tomorrowland ’s disappointing release . an animated series , tron : uprising , aired for a single season in 2012 .

a somewhat underwhelming second feature from director thomas ikimi , legacy is a psychological thriller that simply doesn ' t do enough to retain our interest , even given its short 93 minute running time .

at the beginning of the movie , the title only says " tron " . not until during the ending credits does the name " legacy " get included in the title when it reappears .

sk : you did a marvelous job . it was my favorite score of 2010 , and i love that my relationship with it is still growing . it’s forced me rethink and look at things a little differently . it’s the way i want all those childhood properties to be resurrected .

gray was captured during a mission gone wrong and tortured afterwards . " legacy " follows him dealing with post - traumatic stress and idris elba ' s performance is a good one . " legacy " mostly feels like a good stage play with it ' s limited locations and the distinct editing with some intentional jump cuts and the effective score helps to show gray ' s bad mental state .

when daft punk was announced as the ones who would be scoring tron : legacy , that’s the first thing that went through my head . they’re great musicians but are they great filmmakers ? i had my doubts . when i finally saw the film , i was pretty taken aback . it’s an incredibly functional score which i thought was amazing .

what would you do if you believed your father was a superhero ? the legacy brings to life a story about fathers and sons , imagination and magic , and believing in something larger than ourselves .

disney is considering booting the grid back up . that’s the word from the hollywood reporter , which broke the news that the company was considering resurrecting the franchise for another outing , with suicide squad star jared leto eyed for the lead role . this is at a very early stage , thr cautions . no writers or directors have been attached , although tron : legacy ’s producer , justin springer , will reportedly produce the film along with leto ( if he ends up starring in the film ) .

bodison and yoder are building on the film’s critical acclaim , developing it into a feature - length screenplay to generate further momentum for their labor of love .

" the ballad of narayama " is a japanese film of great beauty and elegant artifice , telling a story of startling cruelty . what a space it opens…

yeah , i’ve got used to living in a sort of slightly false reality , because i live in la now . so that helped with the film .

legacy is a dark and brooding character study which presents the fringes of sanity slowly peeling away as a former black ops solider attempts to deal with his troubled past and piece together the last year of his life .

about elizabeth yoder yoder ' s journey to hollywood began with humble origins . born and raised in indiana on her german / swiss 1800 ' s family homestead hailing from both the amish and mennonite lineage , yoder lived in a community where television and radio was taboo . as she matured , she gradually became aware of a mysterious progressive world outside her strict upbringing and the faraway glow of television transformed into the beckoning lights of hollywood . drawing has won awards from festivals as grace in the long wait film including " best actress " at the jersey shore shorts film festival , " best actor " at the 8th annual beaufort international film festival and the ribaut award for " best short film " , and " best director " at the 18th annual playhouse west film festival . ms . yoder was nominated again for " best actress " alongside screen icon shirley maclaine at the hill country film festival , and shares the most recent win of ' storytelling achievement ' award .

we wanted to preserve the original memory of the film that we got without seeing it . we didn’t want to be overtly affected . this is my interpretation of it , but i just wanted to be affected by it viscerally and not directly . i didn’t want to reference anything . i just wanted to know that in the back of my mind , i had this memory of the original film , and that kind of inspired me to do good work on the new film .

jt : no film score should ever be something other than what the film demands . if you watch tron : legacy , in an early cut without music , you see that it doesn’t call for that original wendy carlos score or style . it’s a fantastic score in its own right . i listened to it recently , and i was astounded by the maturity of the combination between the electronics and the orchestra . i didn’t remember how well that combination worked for the original , and how good of a job wendy carlos did with that .

joseph kosinski directed the promo and is currently directing the film . kosinski previously directed commercials for gears of war , halo 3 , apple computers and others , and was noted for his skill at blending photo - realistic cgi with real actors and scenery . lost writers edward kitsis and adam horowitz are slated to write the film .

sean bailey : we thought , because it was a father / son story at its core and a legacy of kevin flynn passed on to his son , sam , we thought it was a creatively appropriate title . but the other reason we were really…when we landed on legacy , we really wanted to go that direction is , i also think that steve and jeff , bruce and team set a standard in 1982 of how they were pushing the envelope .

congratulations to all the cast and crew for winning the ' storytelling achievement ' award at the 2014 laughlin international film festival . all our hard work has really paid off .

and also , i’d like to correct something . it’s actually a 4d film because jeff bridges brings an extra dimension of awesomeness , so it’s the first 4d film . and i believe the 27 year gap between the two films , i think for michael douglas between wall street 1 and wall street 2 , there was a 230 year gap .

completely underrated unknown film ! one of my favourites ever . idris elba holds this low budget psychological thriller together with breath taking acting . set for the most part , just in a small brooklyn apartment room , this film follows an ex black ops soldier ' s mental deterioration . i love that he ' s not a sqeaky clean good guy , this guy was bad news , but now it ' s coming back to haunt him . masterfully done , i feel like more people need to know about this film .

returning for an unprecedented third year to the fans and convention that started it all , walt disney pictures is pleased to present a special insider look at the upcoming tron : legacy . panelists include filmmakers and talent from the film : director joe kosinski , producers sean bailey and steven lisberger , and cast members jeff bridges , garrett hedlund , olivia wilde , michael sheen , and bruce boxleitner . the discussion , moderated by patton oswalt , is set to include exclusive glimpses of the film , as well as a q & a involving all panel participants , along with special surprise guests .

, has a shot at top spot and it is this week ' s target film . in order to win , one must simply predict the opening weekend box office number for

it is genuinely exciting to see where this brave new world of cgi and 3d is leading . but on the whole , this isn ' t really much of a legacy - - or even as much fun as a round of space invaders .

once disbelief is suspended , it ' s quite a ride . as with avatar last year , the reason to see tron : legacy is for the experience . lights flash . radiating discus hurl through the air in 3d . the music pounds .

i expect " tron : legacy " to be a phenomenon at the box office for a week or so . it may not have legs , because its appeal is too one - dimensional for an audience much beyond immediate responders . when " 2001 " was in theaters , there were fans who got stoned and sneaked in during the intermission for the sound - and - light trip . i hesitate to suggest that for " tron : legacy , " but the plot won ' t suffer .

some of them rely on the original themes by john williams , and some of them don’t . some of them should rely more , and some of them should rely less . that’s an interesting thing to look at for sequels , but again , our goal was nothing more than creating a great score that matches the film . so the film is the holy grail .

the score for legacy in turn captures the world of tron in its current form . it’s evolved , sleek , polished and powerful . it captures the high achievement of society . the two scores create a wonderful pairing where each crystallizes their individual worlds .

tron : legacy is a fun popcorn flick if you had the opportunity to catch it on the big screen , but with the digital effects downsized on a dvd format what ' s good about the movie doesn ' t emit as much of an effect .

patton : i mean 27 years . how did you feel when the phone rings and they are like , “hey , we’re doing tron legacy . we need tron back . ” was your suit in the garage ? did you like go get into it ?

disney may be looking for a merchandising bonanza with this long - gestating sequel to the groundbreaking 1982 film , but someone in the corporate offices forgot to add any human interest to its action - heavy script .

audience question : hi . my question is for everybody , basically . i was wondering at the beginning , when the movie was in production , when it was called “tron 2 . 0” or tron with a two in there , how did it evolve into “tron : legacy ? ”

tron is still celebrated for its pioneering computer graphics and retro 80s styling , but its plot was fatally impenetrable and forgettable . that formula seems to have been honoured here : visually , tron legacy is sleek , polished and thrillingly state of the art ; storywise , it ' s bonkers .

joseph trapanese : i was really lucky , or how should i put it…it was really serendipitous . some people i had worked with on multiple occasions know thomas ( bangalter ) and guy - manuel ( de homem - cristo ) . they were speaking with them about potentially scoring legacy and the challenges that they faced , not the least of which would be scoring a film which they had never done before , and certainly not one of this size or kind , and also working with an orchestra which they had never done before .

it was a good news , really bad news weekend . let ' s start with the good news . the overall box office for the year reached $ 10 billion for only the second time in history . bad news , the box office this past weekend was so bad that 2010 lost its lead over 2009 . it did rise from last weekend by 8 % to $ 145 million , but that ' s 47 % lower than the same weekend

grew more than 100 % thanks to easter sales , selling an additional 1 . 04 million units for the week to give the film total sales of 5 . 59 million units / $ 85 . 30 million after a month of release .

and so we felt as this team a creative legacy as well for wherever we could be pushing the boundaries on this movie , we wanted to . and so it both kind of fit our movie creatively , and also we thought really spoke philosophically to the movie we were trying to make following up these guys’ achievement in 1982 .

when ordering rinzler to shoot at flynn ' s light jet in the final battle , clu tells him to " finish the game . " sark in the first film tells flynn to " finish the game " during flynn ' s first ring battle .

there wasn’t anything overt , but we’d all seen the film . it was all something very memorable . it was all very memorable for us . it’s one of those films that changes the way you think about the world , so no matter what you do , you’re going to not necessarily reference it but be influenced by it somehow . to avoid being influenced by it in the wrong way , we just avoided watching the film and paying any direct attention to it while we were on this project .

and then finally , i think the biggest technical challenge and the thing i am most excited about is jeff bridges , having him in the film first of all , but having him play two roles . he plays kevin flynn , the programmer from the first film , and he also plays flynn’s avatar clu in our movie . and clu has remained the same age he was when he was created . so we will see jeff at 35 years old playing against himself . and he just does an incredible job .

but the need to think about this stuff is optional . tron legacy is best enjoyed as a showreel of cutting - edge visuals – an extended daft punk video , perhaps , or a computer simulation of bridges ' inner turmoil since he won his oscar last year . he won ' t win any for this but the visual effects departments might .

about wolfgang bodison wolfgang bodison is best remembered for his performance as lance corporal harold dawson in the critically acclaimed , rob reiner film , a few good men . most wanted , freeway , joe somebody , and legacy are just a few of his ever - growing film credits . he recently starred in the independent features : the appearing , ragamuffin , vertical , and pretty rosebud . television credits include recurring roles on “nothing sacred” and “family law , ” as well as guest - star appearances on hit shows such as “csi : ny , ” “csi : miami , ” “ncis , ” “cane , ” “er , ” “the wedding dress , ” and “perception . ” the past several years , wolfgang has transitioned to filmmaker by writing and directing the short films , simone , broken , sarah’s wish , and the long wait , all of which have screened in major festivals worldwide .

great modern political psychological film . idris elba gives an amazingly intense performance . the script is tight and intelligent . absorbing character study made thrilling by a director who has a great eye for visuals and a fantastic lead who knows how to create a complex character .

tron : legacy , released for home entertainment on april 5 , 2011 , is available on multiple home entertainment platforms , including blu - ray 3d™ , blu - ray™ , dvd , digital copy , movie download and on - demand . also included is tron : the original classic special edition . reviews have praised its audio / visual quality . [ 1 ]

my main interest in seeing this film was actor idris elba as central character malcolm gray . elba is of course better known to most viewers as stringer bell from the landmark tv series the wire and also to british audiences as troubled cop luther . elba , who also served as executive producer here , occupies the screen for pretty much the whole film and his performance is impressive ( save for a rather inconsistent us accent - perhaps he should have stuck to stringer ' s baltimore drawl ) . the supporting cast ( including elba ' s fellow…

i’m a fanatic of the original tron ( 1982 ) and every direction legacy was heading communicated to me that this was nothing more than a blatant cash - grab cannibalizing another beloved franchise from my youth . what few positive spikes piquing my interest were completely eroded away when it was announced that daft punk was composing the score . i had nothing against daft punk . i longed recognized them as great musicians , but were they great filmmakers ? film composing has more to do with the art of filmmaking than it does music - making . was this the right choice ? i dismissed their selection as just another paltry scheme pandering to popularity .

our goal was to do justice to the film . we all had such a fondness for the original tron . we had this great love of what ( director ) steve lisberger was able to achieve . we knew that this film demanded nothing less than faithfulness to that vision , that really bold world he created , and also a faithfulness to a bold , unique idea and a unique approach to the score . that dictated this was going to take a year and a half to two years of work from the dedication of a small team of musicians .

was brought on to refine and re cut parts thomas ' edit . richard graham ' s input was invaluable as he somehow managed to shave off 15 minutes of the film but still maintain the integrity of thomas ' edit , which richard respected . it ended up a good partnership .

he wouldn’t just check in with the animators , he’d have the animators go down every day , and work on finessing how to draw a deer properly , and every sort of motion . you’d think that’s expensive , but what came from it was a great achievement in film history .

the year is now 2010 , where the now - adult sam breaks into the encom tower and steals encom ' s newest operating system os 12 , releasing it online as part of his annual prank on the company . after being chased to the top of the tower by a security guard , sam reveals himself as the major shareholder of encom , who then attempts to freefall off the tower only for his parachute to snag onto a traffic light . as he tries to reach his motorbike on foot , he is arrested and is eventually released a few hours later .

the master control program is booted back up in this revamped tron continuation that sees the return of original star jeff bridges as kevin flynn , the brilliant computer programmer whose disappearance leads his son , sam ( garrett hedlund ) , to search for him in and out of the computer world . original director and co - writer steven lisberger produces the new film , which is helmed by commercial director joseph kosinski . james frain , olivia wilde , beau garrett , and michael sheen also star , with bruce boxleitner returning as alan bradley and tron , the heroic protagonist of the original film .

made from friday to sunday . this makes it hard to judge its opening . in the meantime , the film added $ 1 . 71 million on 481 screens in the u . k . for a total of $ 20 . 47 million in that country . it will have little trouble overtaking

even for viewers familiar with the first tron , there ' s a great deal to take on board here . the opening flashback in tron legacy even resorts to jeff bridges using action figures to explain the history to his son . this is as well as a voiceover explanation of " the grid " , the virtual realm into which kevin flynn , bridges ' character , mysteriously disappeared 20 years ago .

jt : yeah . we got really lucky on this one in that everyone was on board . the basic answer is yes . there are always surprises , here and there . there are always things that you never imagine . some of the changes are for the better . some of the changes are not , but what we all bought into was the fact that we were scoring the film . we’re not the end all , be all . we had to achieve our basic goal , which is , you write for the film . so i think the basic answer is yes , in short .

i ' m giving this more attention than the movie does , which is just as well . isaac asimov would have attempted some kind of scientific speculation on how this might all be possible , but " tron " is more action - oriented . ( personal to sci - fi fans : if " 2001 : a space odyssey " is analog , " tron : legacy " is thrilling wonder stories . )

taking refuge in a shabby brooklyn motel after narrowly surviving a failed mission in eastern europe , black ops soldier malcolm gray ( idris elba ) begins to disintegrate mentally as he broods over the legacy of his actions in this taut psychological thriller . haunted by his demons while holed up in his room , malcolm ponders the ascent of his brother ( eamonn walker ) , an ambitious senator with designs on the presidency .

jt : i’ve always been an orchestrator ever since i was young . it’s something that i’ve always been passionate and detail - oriented about . when i brought up the idea ( of me orchestrating daft punk’s music for the film ) , the general thought was , “that would be great ! ” but i’ve never orchestrated a million dollar film . so i suggested we bring in someone who can oversee my work and verify it . i told them that bruce has been my mentor since i came to l . a . there’s no better master of the orchestra than bruce . so lucky for me , that got approved .

also at the beginning of the movie , two figurines are seen to be in the middle of a disc battle , foreshadowing sam ' s battle in the disc wars . a model of the 2nd generation light cycle can likewise be seen , foreshadowing later in the film when we see kevin ' s light cycle .

joe kosinski : yeah , we are going to try something . and this might be crazy , but i thought it was worth giving it a shot . this is the first time this has ever been tried . we actually have technicians from skywalker sound all throughout the audience , and we’re going to do some crowd recording . if you guys do a great job , you are actually going to be in tron legacy in december .

we had to push the boundaries creatively , technically , and also story - wise , tell a story that couldn’t be told until today . and i think we’ve done that in a couple of ways . we’ve shot this thing with the camera infusion camera system ; true 3d movie . no conversion here in this film .

steven lisberger : no matter how good the technology is the artists , the creative people find a way to spend 105 % of it . so in a strange way , it feels similar to the first film . you get that idea that no matter how good it gets , it’s not going to be good enough .

sk : take me through the creation of a typical cue . how were the ideas presented to you ? what did you end up doing with those ideas and then how did your input affect the final product ? could you walk me through a day in the life of creating one of the cues for this film ?

sk : i want to throw this out there . i’ve been hearing a lot of rumors out there about who really scored this film . there are fanboys and industry insiders alike who claim that “some guys at remote control ended up composing this score” and that daft punk “didn’t have much involvement as everybody was led to believe…”

steven lisberger : it proves to me that some things , good things , take a really , really long time to happen . and it’s like the line from the first film : “you just keep doing what you think is right and you hope it works out in the end . ” jeff said that in tron 1 .

sk : bruce brought up a point with me about how some daft punk fans might have been disappointed with the score because it ended up not being another daft punk album . it was a film score . that’s primarily the reason why i ended up loving it so much . it wasn’t just the next daft punk album .

additionally , paz , portrayed by edgar ramirez , is briefly seen shooting and killing simon ross ( portrayed by paddy considine ) at waterloo station , the event which also takes place during the bourne ultimatum . matt damon has a photographic cameo , as his picture as jason bourne is seen at the beginning and end of the film .

originally the film was to be written by george nolfi , and would star matt damon , julia stiles , and joan allen . however on november 30 , 2009 , paul greengrass stated he was not interested , and the project was canceled . matt damon said he wouldn ' t return to the bourne franchise unless greengrass directed again .

when you combine orchestra and electronics , there’s a real chance that it’s going to fall flat on its face . it’s not going to be a good orchestra or good electronics . it’s going to be this weird , messy combination of loops , and what not , which really doesn’t do anybody any justice , much less the film .

the studio , from day one , was extremely supportive of what we were doing , and yes , you’re completely right ! in this day and age , to have this much time on the film is unbelievable , but luckily we were involved early enough , and had enough people behind us , that it was able to happen .

sk : i’m one of those minority film music buffs and composers that believe that a sequel needs to be scored in its own unique way . if there’s an opportunity to bring back themes , and is appropriate , then that’s fine , but i think the best sequel scores out there are scores that are their own original entities .

rose to top spot with $ 19 . 41 million on 3041 screens in 34 markets for a total of $ 72 . 90 million internationally . the film is about to cross $ 100 million domestically , and it looks assured at repeating that feat internationally , which is very impressive for an art house film . it opened in france scoring second place with $ 4 . 58 million on 300 screens , giving it the best per screen average in the market . it also opened in russia earning fourth place with $ 1 . 34 million on 329 screens over the weekend and $ 1 . 73 million in total . over the weekend , it earned twice as much as

sk : i am a lover of the original tron . i think wendy carlos’ score for tron is one of the great electronic masterpieces of cinema . although i would not categorize the legacy score as having anything to do with the carlos score , there’s a nice parallel between the two . carlos’ score really captured the world of tron in its infancy in 1982 when the grid was new and relatively archaic . there was a lot of chaos and uncertainty .

the film dictates all , and as you know , a sequel , if it means original themes from the previous one , then so be it . harry potter is a great example to look at for sequels and music , because some of the sequels are fantastic , musically , and some of them are really quite poor , musically .

the christmas break is just ending , but as it is normally the case , international numbers are late . we do have studio estimates for a few films , as well as last week ' s final numbers , which had a surprise change at the top . we ' ll start with this week ' s possible number one film .
