Flynn Lives!

cargoweasel posted this link on his Twitter feed, and I must say I'm curious. It's viral marketing for Tron 2, giving us some background (perhaps) on what's ahppened to Flynn since the events of the last film.

The question arises: is the site hosted by humans on the outside, or by the programs on the inside? I'd expect phraseology issues if it was the latter ('died' implies it's a human site, rather than 'derezzed' would imply program-side), but then again, given how much faster things run in the computer, it must be generations since the end of the MCP..

I think I may be geeking out a little already. n.n

Oh, just a wee bit.

It appears the site is a human attempt to track down the location of Flynn, and I'm assuming he's been uploaded to the system/network/Matrix again.

Since time does presumably pass at different rates in the system (how long was Flynn adventuring with Tron before he got Tron to communicate with Allan? How long was Allan waiting?), I'm gonna assume he's spent a LONG time inside. So, yeah, generations for sure.

I wonder if he will be the antagonist in this one again. I guess that'll make two genre films where he takes that role.

and God I wish I was going to SDCC this year.

I know! The one year I'm not able to go, because of this family reunion, and they've got all sorts of REALLY cool stuff I want to see.

I haven't been in... eight years. Quite a fun show, for sure. I miss it a lot.

I wonder what they're doing for it.

And I suddenly wonder if it's 1st & J streets, or 1st & J aisles?

I wish I was there too... the con floor must be utterly deserted after seeing this picture of the waiting lineup for the Twilight panel.
