Hey that would be great. I just dropped an e-mail to Buena Vista Holland, maybe they have some stuff. I also asked them why there was so little promotion over here....lazy bastards !
Would be great if you could send me one if it doesn't work out over here. I'd love one of those recognizer stickers too....

Funny, in MN we didn't get a sticker either. I was first in line there. Preview was great. Nice expansion on a couple scenes we have had glimpses of already and I love the use of the Journey song.
I probably could have gotten 2 posters bc I signed on as having a guest (my daughter was supposed to come but was sick), but I only grabbed one of each of the things and left.
Aw man! If anyone would like to share the wealth with the Tron stuff, I'm you're guy! They didn't even show the preview up around me!

Was security tight at the other locations? We got IDs checked, signed waivers, got patted down, wanded, got our cell phones taken away, and security sat in the theater the whole time. I understand they want to prevent recording, but I would have had an easier time sneaking through a security checkpoint at the airport!
Attendance seemed light. And I got there about 5-10 minutes before it started with no problems. No way I was gonna wait an hour for a 20 minute show.
The original Tron is one of my favorite movies, and I loved this preview. I think the original will be done justice, unlike most other sequels/prequels. I also don't think the extended preview ruins the experience of the 'whole thing' at all -- I think it confirmed that this is gonna be a great movie and wet my appetite for the final product. I'm also not a fan of 3D, but in this case, I think it was used really well. I say so far so good.
I really can't wait to see the whole thing. The event was fun, and got a bunch of posters and cards. No recognizer sticker though...
Oh, and Olivia Wilde is hot.
And for those asking how this event was discovered -- this was the latest piece of an ongoing viral marketing campaign launched early this year (same campaign where people got the Encom badges). A "secret" website containing MS word documents filled with codes was discovered. The assembled and decoded information revealed a web address (tronnight2010.com) where you could register for a ticket on a certain date.

Double damn...we only had Rinzler cards at our location...
Can you get a good scan of the sticker and post it? (Through the masking layer) I can cut some if people want them, and there aren't enough... Just need a better view of what it looks like. White vinyl, I assume?
And I'll PM ya, in case you can just send me one, if there are any left...

FYI - was at Michaels a couple days ago looking for crap for my halloween costume and saw they have Tron posters for $6 each or something like that.

I did!!! I still think it's funny they are using that song. I like how they threw some "till tuesday" in there also.

Cool man I'm going to Micheal in like an hour to get a frame for the preview poster. Ill check it out
Ok, Luckyman sent me the extra Recognizer sticker a while back, and I finally got done 'vectorizing' it.
Here it is, in all its glory. Hopefully the forum will let me upload it as an .ai file, or a .zip. Then those of you with the ability to cut these can make your own.
I will be making some of these as well, if anyone is interested. I'll make it a sort-of "Free Thursday." Just send me a SASE. (Linked, in case you are unfamiliar with the term) I will have these cut out of white vinyl, so they will not glow under black light. To cut them out of the white polyester is more expensive, and it doesn't really stick as well...
Please note: If you send a regular 9" x 4.125" envelope, I will have to scale these down a little, just FYI. Better to send one of those 5x7 or 6x9 envelopes for the "official" size...

Meh, Til Tuesday??? All I heard was Separate Ways and Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics.. Til Tuesday sang "Voices Carry", which was not played in the 20 min clip.
Amateurs. LOL
I haven't rocked out to that song, but hearing the bass thump and reverb that they use in that scene has me so stoked to see the scene in the theatre again. I totally loved that.
