All that said, it has a lot of cool ideas and implications, but it is essentially just another special effects music video with some good action.

The Depeche Mode exchange, while awkwardly inserted into the movie, was one of the few things I genuinely liked about it. (I didn't hate it. It mostly elicited a shrug.)

Spoilers? I guess?

The first time Ares really realized he was becoming more human was when he couldn't articulate a logical reason why he preferred Depeche Mode to the classical music being discussed.

I feel like the Depeche Mode exchange worked a lot better in the second scene.

Legacy isn’t the best story ever, but the soundtrack absolutely is.

I like Legacy because Clu is kind of a Tragic Villain. Like he's basically Kevin Flynn's other son, who had done everything his "father"/creator told him to do, and it still wasn't "good enough."

I really like the scene when they go to Flynn's compound and he has that flashback, then the moment of rage as he throws everything off the table.

Especially with the first Tron where Clu is just a sort of throw away program of Flynn's. Flynn likes Tron more, he believes Allan's program is better than his own and Clu knows it. So when Clu finally takes over the Grid and essentially traps Flynn within the Grid it's still not good enough. Clu STILL isn't good enough. Flynn is STILL trying to find and reconnect with Allan's program, Tron.
