I love the book and I want to see this, if only so I can rip it to shreds, but I certainly don't want to pay money and encourage anymore literary abominations. Or Luhrmann films in general, he's got the subtlety of a brick to the face. http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/robert-redford-who-the-hell-is-jackie-evancho.php Jackie also happens to be a platinum and gold selling recording artist for columbia records. Look her up so that people realize that you didn't just crawl out from other some rock, lol! :P http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/trailer-breakdown-you-mess-with-riddick-you-lose.php one two three four get with the Riddick I like how his special power is being able to see in the dark. Why don't the bounty hunters plan to hunt him during the day? http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/trailer-breakdown-you-mess-with-riddick-you-lose.php You just ruined my world with this breakdance clip. I was sure Diesel was born so big but now it seems he ate some vitamins at some point in his, not afraid to spell it, career. Also, some racist (although they don't exist nowadays, do they) could say not only black guys all die, they have 'the first guy that dies' awarded. Btw, I love this trailer type summarizing the whole film for audience so that we don't have to actually watch it. I know, I know, there is not much to summarize, but still... http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/fast--furious-6.php My reaction to that Simpsons gif got me a dirty look from my boss. And not the good kind. http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/forthcoming-highlights-from-eric-roberts-busy-year-ahead.php Eric Roberts is the new Richard Jenkinson who was the new Tom Wilkinson. Old-ish gangster type guy who is in everything. http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/new-poster-trend-alert-just-add-motion-blur.php surely you can forgive motion blur on [i]helicopter blades[/i] http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/the-11-dumbest-things-about-tron-legacy.php http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m94xnzM4JK1rt9aiz.jpg | | | V http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/forthcoming-highlights-from-eric-roberts-busy-year-ahead.php * Looks at header pic * Maybe he can replace Dermot Morgan so we could get some new Father Ted episodes. http://www.theshiznit.co.uk/comments/the-11-dumbest-things-about-tron-legacy.php Alright, time to punch hole after hole in your mostly nonsensical gripes. [b]Clu 2.0 - a program with a plan[/b] Was this a longshot? Sure, but I imagine Clu had hoped the entire time that Sam would eventually visit his own arcade. And the fact that he was able to determine the proper commands for firing the machine, pretty simply for anyone with serious working knowledge of a UNIX-based OS. Sam's keen observation and computer skills guided him. Not that mysterious. [b]Don't page me, bro![/b] First off, he was trying to bring Alan to the grid, not Sam, but more on that in a second. Why didn't Clu just send Sam a voicemail? Gee, I imagine because he isn't a psychic. When Kevin created Clu, he imparted all his knowledge into him. Which would have included Alan's pager number, not Sam's future cell phone number. Besides, Alan was the one Clu wanted, which is obvious by his surprise at Sam and Clu's first meeting. He was trying to bring in Alan, Tron's original programmer or "user". [b]Castor[/b] If you had actually paid attention to the story, you would have known that [i]ZUSE[/i] changed his identity because he fought alongside the ISOs during "The Purge" carried out by Clu. I.e. he would have been exterminated had he not taken up his new identity as Castor; and thus would have never had even existed during this storyline in the first place. [b]Sam Flynn, super hacker[/b] Super virus?! Are you kidding me? Do you know anything about computers beyond point-and-click?! He did a simple switcheroo, he pushed the OS12 onto the company's public servers. (We even see Mr. Dillenger killing the link from the board room.) [b]Quorra and the ISOs[/b] At what point in the story was Quorra ever described as an "organic manifestation"? If she were organic, she would have bled exactly like Sam did when here lower arm was sliced off. You see, you just decided you hated the movie within the first ten minutes, and now you're conjuring up fantastically erroneous interpretations. [b]Artificial lack of intelligence[/b] Again you're flexing your sheer like of ignorance in the realm of technology. Why is it that you keep comparing every bit (pun intended) of a computer system to a web page? As if that is all computers consist of. There are plenty of reasons that a grid-program could become "homeless", data corruption and fragmentation, just to name a couple. [b]On yer bike[/b] He obviously gave it away to throw Clu off his trail, if only briefly. Clu would know when it was on the grid, and track it accordingly. Sam had precious little time, which is why he used the fastest thing in the system for transport in the first place. Honestly, you're really reaching at this point... [b]Rules? There are no rules![/b] I would have figured that even someone so technologically illiterate would know that digital entities don't need to eat or shit (did you actually even watch the original TRON?) The dinner was symbolic, he hadn't sat down for dinner with his son for ~20 years. [b]Kevin Flynn, Christ parable[/b] The laws of physics are indeed shaky at the quantum level (flexing your ignorance again?) Beyond that, I'm not sure where you're even going with this point. [b]Clu the hell are you?[/b] Again you're showing how little you even understand the story. Clu is indeed the digital mirror of Kevin Flynn, [i]at the time he was created[/i]. He's not psychic (haven't we covered this?) and he doesn't evolve. He is as Kevin Flynn was at the time he was created, that's it. [b]The dialogue [/b] Did you already run out of holes to punch in the story? And besides, Kevin's dialogue was priceless. After 1000 grid years stuck in the system, he still maintains the unique attitude of his former self. Honestly, if the movie was so far over your head, then just say so and move on! Don't spend hours writing a blog entry that makes absolutely no sense to anyone but yourself.
