Something I love about the classic Tron posters is how the tag lines really tell you a lot about the world? Funnily enough it helps me to understand the world better than I had with my countless rewatches and re reads of the novel. Short, quippy and striking. It’s a little romaticised and dramatized but it’s true.
“Where energy lives and breathes”
“Video game battles are a matter of life or death”
“Trapped in a world he helped to create”
They absolutely slap. I also like how the designs and changes in tag lines and titles really show how long this movie was in development and it’s changes. It’s neat.
Honestly I’m really sad about the lost art of poster making in general, beautiful paintings and snappy tag lines that told you exactly what you were going into. It wasn’t just a advertisement it was a promise, a explanation - a summary. This isn’t to say there isn’t the occasional good poster design in the modern day but it’s really a lost art.

I have nothing to justify this. I'm using this as my phonescreen so I made 2 versions for phones. The colours might be a bit of, cause I made it a long time ago (wasn't sure if should post it but screw it 🙃)
