I have NEVER seen tron. I plan to fix that next weekend.
it might look kinda old compared to todays technology, but it was amazing for 1982!
more viral marketing for tron. a mock video interview with alan bradley (boxleitner)
Do so. It holds up rather well, I think. Largely because the ‘games’ were influential in later computer games.
Although I suppose that there are people too young to even get the references at this point.
sigh
excellent find!
…and gave me something to think about…just a feeling…
…share…
As a Gamer, Software Developer, and Bruce Boxeiler fan that was pretty cool.
I have not read any spoilers for this thing (and I’m not looking for any), but I hope we get to see Bruce as Tron somewhere in this thing.
[spoiler] just have this feeling that he had something to do with Flynn’s dissaperence [/spoiler]
Well I’m 28, I should be able to get the references. 
i dont think so, but he does know something…
here is a press release posted on the Encom website:
ALAN BRADLEY TO HEADLINE MAJOR ENCOM PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT
March 24th, 2010
Newly-minted Executive Consultant Alan Bradley will introduce the latest addition to the Encom International product library on April 2 in San Francisco.
Software giant Encom ushered in the digital age with an unrivaled library of gaming titles. Now, Encom International circles the globe with advanced software systems that include communications, sports, entertainment, navigation, agricultural, health care, construction, weather, military and governmental applications on every continent.
Bradley began his career with Encom as a security systems engineer and rose through the ranks to be named CEO in the early 1990s. When he exited the executive suite, he took on a far greater role. His visionary research turned Encom into the industry leader in sustainable production and distribution methods – methods which are now the best practices for technology companies around the world. "Whether the challenge is to establish communications in a national disaster, or keep kids engaged as they battle Recognizers, I love what I do. Encom will always be my home. "
CEO Kurt Hardington sums it up this way: “Alan’s new title and role reflect his unique position as part of the Encom story. He keeps us grounded, yet he’s the first to move forward when technology takes us in a new direction. That’s why he’s perfect to present our newest product – it’s where we’ve come from and where we’re going.”
Alan Bradley will take the stage at 8pm in Justin Herman Plaza on April 2 to unveil the next generation in Encom innovation.

From the Hollywood Reporter:

Disney puts ‘Tron Legacy’ sequel in motion (exclusive)
“Tron Legacy” isn’t due until December, but Disney already is putting a sequel on its monorail track.
Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, the “Lost” writers/executive producers who worked on “Legacy,” have begun writing a sequel to the studio’s sci-fi tentpole.
No details have been released because it is so early in the process. Notwithstanding the question of whether the movie will be a hit, other topics to ponder are whether the sequel will focus on spinoff characters or center on a new adventure set in the “Tron” world. Insiders have suggested that Kitsis and Horowitz are working on a way to round the story into a trilogy.

No deals have been made with “Legacy” director Joseph Kosinski or cast members to return, though options were placed in the original deals, and Disney surely would hope to reunite all the elements if “Legacy” proves to be a hit. Also needing to be figured out is who would produce a sequel. Sean Bailey, a producer on “Legacy,” is now Disney’s president of production.
Still, with Bailey as production head and WME-repped Kitsis and Horowitz writing more “Tron,” Disney seems to be believe in what they have.
Why you ask? welllllll
hells yea
