I hated the video game more.
Assuming you're talking about "Tron" and not "Discs of Tron":
It was certainly a video game that felt designed by committee. Admittedly, I really enjoyed it as a kid, which means it still triggers pleasure centers in my brain as an adult, while simultaneously, I have come to regard it as flawed and boring.
("Discs of Tron", on the other hand, still holds up pretty well to this day.)
And besides, I'm on the Twin Galaxies scoreboard for "Tron". I used to be Number Eight, although I've since been kicked
way down.
Re: the trailer. I might well be the only person on the forum who finds this exciting. Or at least the only one who admits to it.
EDIT: after sleeping on this, some aspects of the trailer have come to bother me. The most obvious thing is that the motorcycle helmets look pretty dopey -- I prefer the Devo helmets of the original -- but other than that I can't quite nail it down. I think I'm bothered by the fact that this appears destined to end up as merely a 21st-century reimagining of the original (with the same "games"), but with better CGI and more intense action.
In the original, the "culture" inside the computer was supposed to reflect what computers were being used for in the real world (e.g., the "games" (with lightcycles, recognizers, thanks, and disc battles) were the exact same games that Flynn had developed himself). Enough has changed in the world of computers (and computer gaming) since then, that you'd hope/expect the internal culture to have changed at least as dramatically. There's a lot of creative potential for this, so if they just stick with the lightcycles and tanks it will feel like a lazy cop-out.
But the trailer does imply that the movie will be heavy and dark, which is a mood that I like, so maybe that will win out.
