Kosinksi was supposed to do it; I think that they even had a script and everything :(

he got screwed by Disney with Tron sequel. Legacy wasn't great but it had some ideas brewing and the leaked script for the sequel had some promise... that fly swatted by Ares repurposing its general shapes and utterly wasting it on some nondescript cyberpunk corporate shenanigans and digital invasion into the real world as bluntly as humanly possible. At least we got Oblivion out of it

Ah. I haven't seen Ares. Maybe I shouldn't.

it's inoffensively forgettably bad. At least Morbius was proactively awful - Ares is just there and it's a bunch of stuff and then it is over and that's it. It feels like Unreal Engine showcase reel
