We’ve got two new pics to show you from TRON LEGACY… yes, that’s right, two new ones.  You may recall, we JUST showed you two pics mere days ago, but Disney is masterfully teasing us with this sort of thing, and this weekend everyone will have a chance to see the TRON LEGACY trailer attached to Tim Burton’s ALICE IN WONDERLAND prints.  MTV caught up with director Joseph Kosinski during the special events last weekend, during which fans got their first look at the trailer.  Joseph had a few quotes regarding the film.

“I’ve had my head down plowing forward for almost two years now,” Kosinski told MTV News. “It’s great to be able to step back and show the fans a glimpse of the world we’re creating and see their reactions.”

Kosinski also seemed shocked at how strong the fan enthusiasm was for the Disney franchise.

“I was surprised at the lengths people went to… I heard about people getting on planes and flying from Chicago to New York and crazy stuff that I would have never anticipated. We were playing to the ‘TRON‘ base, so if it doesn’t play well to those guys and girls, we’re in trouble. But it played great. It was fun to hear them cheer for little details that only a die-hard would know, like a glimpse of a laser or a shot of Flynn’s Arcade from the outside. That’s satisfying, because I’ve put a lot of those little Easter eggs throughout the film.”

Kosinski also noted that after this weekend playing in theaters with ALICE IN WONDERLAND, the trailer will be widely available on the Internet.

“My suggestion is to see it in 3-D in surround sound this weekend and download it next week and feel free to freeze-frame and analyze… It was important to me that when people see it for the first time, they have the opportunity to see it in 3-D on a big screen. The entire second half of the trailer is in 3-D. On your iPhone, it’s not quite the same.”

Here’s that second image, in which you can see the reveal of the TRON video game inside Flynn’s Arcade.
