TRON Lightcycle / Run | Walt Disney World | Magic Kingdom | Ride Cam | 2023

Beginning April 4, 2023, Walt Disney World Resort guests, also known as Users, will be digitally scanned into a mysterious game world presented by Enterprise in TRON Lightcycle / Run. Team Blue members will board high-speed Lightcycles for a thrilling race through a dark, computerized world, facing off against a fierce group of Programs known as Team Orange.  Here is my First Ride on Disney’s…

I finally got to ride TRON: Lightcycle/Run at Magic Kingdom and determined it was one of the coolest things I've ever done with my life. Now I'm itching to get back into the Tron aesthetic and did a Quorra sketch. I haven't done a cel-shading style in a long time!

(Anyone else miss Tron: Uprising? Taken from us too soon...)

Someone in merch has at least seen the poster for the original 😁

New TRON merch just dropped for Lightcycle /Run in Tomorrowland, I am frothing at the mouth right now.

Allegedly Tron will be getting TWO merch shops in Tomorrowland, one is by the ride itself, and the other will be in the abandoned Alien Encounter building. Could this mean a second attraction is planned for the distant future..?

This was a overlay in  Anaheim from I believe 82’ until the end of the People movers run (when it turned into the disastrous Rocket rods- funnnily enough there was a Tron idea of racing cycles around tommorowland that wouldn’t went on this track. It was one of their initial ideas and potentially how we have lightcycle run today) . Aside from needing a serious oil job from all the squeaking, there is a charm to the OG people over, I’m also jealous it goes through star tours!

Now the Tron portion occurs midway during one of the tunnel portions of the ride. Automatically you can tell what budget their on, the voice isn’t very robotic (compare it today to the train at Disney world where a siren comes on in the tunnel before approaching Tron).

You get digitized in the same exact shot from the film, down to the dial up noise creating pretty stellar projections throughout the tunnel, the same beautiful shots of patterns and circuits. It goes into a lightcycle sequence racing and dodging around you— honestly it’s pretty great visually and I absolutely adore how perfect they have the sound?

“You have escaped Tron’s game grid for now Users,” I’m sobbing. Was he trying to run us down??? Hello?? This is especially funny because going into the tunnel it mentions master control and HE is the one mad/digitizing the guests. It’s the computer world of Tron but not his games.

It’s not as cheesy as I thought it was going to be, in fact it’s a great little tribute/advertisement for the movie itself “wasn’t that cool? Go watch it!” Alongside how back in the day the parks had actual arcades within them too. All I’m saying is we still have a people mover at Disney world and a already existing Tron ride… it’d only be fitting… 80s projections and all.

I like how much influence this held on what ultimately became lightcycle run, now of course it’s set In the sequel but the idea dates back to the original. Both the digitization sequence and lightcycle race are pivotal to both films so it only makes sense they’d want a attraction on it.

Favorite Disney Parks Attraction Showdown: Round 1 - Group A2

Videos and propaganda under the cut!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind: WDW Epcot

Propaganda:

"Genuinely the best theme park ride I’ve ever been on. It’s insanely cool, not too short, and really smooth"

"I only got to ride it once (which I mean... I just really don't like that they don't even give the option of riding it a second time in one day, but whatever) but uh yeah! It was so good!!!! Would ride again (if they would actually let you!!!) out of 10"

Greetings, programs, and welcome to the third and final installment of Wonderful World of Darklords' Summer Blockbuster series! "Blockbuster" is a strong word for both Tron and Tron: Legacy, but they're cult classics that busted blocks in the hearts of many (including Tom). That said, while CLU is one of those Disney villains who needs very little work to become a darklord, the Grid needs a whole lot of work to become a domain in a computer-free fantasy setting. Topics discussed include:

wait, Tron? Really? How does that work?

whether and how to include the ISOs, who add a complicated extra layer to the domain but also are a delicious part of CLU's torment;

additional setting elements to make the Grid a more fully realized and fleshed-out domain for gameplay, drawing from Tron: Uprising, Tron: Evolution, and the horrifyingly titled choose-your-own-adventure novel Tron: Legacy: It's Your Call: Initiate Sequence;

adapting D&D mechanics to the aesthetics of Tron, from "how to use a cool disk when I'm a sword guy" to "what's going on with those special user powers the Flynns use;"

and more!

The full writeup for the Grid is available on DM's Guild: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/486304/The-Grid-A-Ravenloft-Domain-of-Dread?affiliate_id=241770

Much like with Toy Story, Tom wrote an adventure for the Grid! As always with these longer adventures, a caveat: while our DM's Guild writeups for domains are free and always will be, adventures are a LOT more work and DM's Guild doesn't give us the option of "no, no, it's free for regular podcast listeners but everyone else has to pay." HOWEVER, just like with Sleepy Hollow, the Raven Nebula, and Toy Story, we have a coupon code to get our listeners the adventure for 99 cents instead of $1.99 until the end of September. (And if you join our Patreon, you can get access to a free link!) Check out the discounted link here: https://www.dmsguild.com/browse.php?discount=950be42e9f

The 2e Shadow Rift adventure is also available on DM's Guild: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/17482/The-Shadow-Rift-2e?term=the+shadow+rift
