If Tron Legacy is the type of movie you like, I suggest you go see the movie this weekend (Friday night even, if possible).
This is how Hollywood works, sadly. The entire success of a movie rests on its opening weekend. If it does well (and really anything other than #1 will be a disappointment) then perhaps it stays in the public consciousness for another week. Does poorly and all you'll hear about is how it bombed and probably some stuff about how "cult" or "geeky" films don't do well.
I've seen this with a few other movies I was into that didn't fare so well. Opening weekend is key.
