TRON (the original 1982)

GEEKS ALERT!! stop writing your codes, leave your interface and get yourself ready to go back from WYSWIG programming to the most simple and basic of programming, the binary codes! *is it? =p
in preparation for the upcoming movie TRON Legacy, its nice to recap with the original classic TRON in the 1982..




most of us would already forget about this movie if there would not be a sequel for it wouldn't we?
during that time, it is the most sophisticated movie ever produced, it bring the concept of MATRIX even in the year 1982.


imagine trapped inside a computer, meeting and talked with our own program represented as humans.scary isnt it?


the movie started off with a scene of a lightcycle race between Sark and some accounting program, the storyline is a program written by human started to lose faith with user, and started to influence other program to lose their belief in existence of user, like telling the world that there is no god, just logic random coincidence. any program that disobeys will be forced to enter the game arena to be de-resolutionised . or de-rezz.

the lightcycles

program being forced to join the game

trusting on the user is like believing in the existence of god.woo

this is Sark, highest officer of the master control program
(he sounded lot like professor Snape in Harry Potter!)

Master Control Program (MCP)

there were also a lot of other sci-fi transportation devices in the digital world,

the solar sails, to move from one domain to another

tanks, created by the main character, Flynn

the recognizer, the MCP most lethal army

the story got more interesting due to the MCP trying to kill Flynn in the game by transferring him into the game vie the laser created by the heroin in this movie, Lori.
the laser kinda work like a 3D scanner i guess, disintegrating particles and rearrange them back in the digital world.*i sounded really geeky saying all the stuff above.hahaha

the laser beam

the character name inside the digital world is also kinda funny for now we didn't really found that name to be that cool.hahaha

crom dies early in the game, crom=chrome? =p

Girlfriends alert!!
this movie is strictly for geeks only and for those who does understand a lil bit about computer and the programming terms. im lucky my girlfriend a programmer.hahaha
if your girlfriend is a geeky partner of yours,bring her with you,if she is not, there might be a potential for her to goes to the bathroom and never coming back. kinda de-rezz in the toilet forever waiting for the movie to finish.hee

Geeks rule!!
