thought: since we're all pretty upset with the direction of tr/3n...why don't we just Goncharov the third movie?

Not Tron Aries. The actual Tron 3. The one made with love for it's fans. You know the one I'm talking about.

Whatever happened to Walter Gibbs?

He was the founder of ENCOM, sidelined when Dillinger rose to power, so I really wonder what happened to him once Dillinger was kicked out and Kevin Flynn took over. As far as I can tell, he isn't mentioned in Tron Legacy or in any related media, which I do think is a shame, especially considering that he's the first character who actually states the central premise of the film: That the "spirits" of those who create computer programs live on inside the computer. He was probably speaking metaphorically, but I wonder how he would react if Flynn had told him of his experiences in the digital world.

Gibbs' actor, Barnard Hughes, had unfortunately died a few years before Legacy, and considering that the character was old and gray-haired even in the 80s film, it's sadly not unlikely that Gibbs would be dead as well by the time that the sequel film is set in. I would like to think that Flynn offered him a high-ranking position in the company, and perhaps that Gibbs declined, being happy to be tinkering with hardware as a part of the laser research division. And even though Flynn apparently kept his own laser "experiments" secret from the rest of the company, even from people like Alan and presumably Lora, I would like to think that he eventually told Gibbs about it, since he might think that Gibbs would understand and appreciate the revelation that computer programs literally contain the spirits of their creators. It's the least Kevin could do for the father of both ENCOM and the digtizing laser, I think. I would also like to believe that his digital counterpart, Dumont, would live on long after Gibbs' passing, and that Flynn told him about the greatness of his User as well.

I'm so obsessed with Tron Legacy it's just this beautiful little fucked up movie that is INTENSELY dedicated to being a synaesthetic art piece while also hitting Disney's mandated sad dad storyline from the late 2000s

But EVERY SCENE is gorgeous. Almost every FRAME you could put on your wall as an art piece. Daft Punk did the soundtrack! You can't GET shit like this anymore it's just a one in a billion event where everything came together right

They got away with so much and no disney movie will ever go this hard ever again

[artisanscarecrow]

You know something that really bugs me? The fact that Flynn was able to save Yori from dying with his "user powers" or whatever, but not Ram--- what the heck Flynn, you've been on this journey with Ram for longer, why not save him??

Oh, but I'm just bitter because I liked Ram a lot.

I really like how the colors turned out on this! I didn't draw the helmets because helmets are my nemesis and also because, if you've seen the behind-the-scenes photos from this movie, we were robbed, all the leads have gorgeous hair!

So I drew them with hair. Sue me.

I also improvised the circuitry lines a bit because they had WAY more lines in this movie than the suits did in Legacy and I'm not dedicated enough to memorize their placement, haha

Tron Lives! (If only Ram did too! :...) )

Cyberpunk Tf Au Mega post : (WIP)

Subjects are due to be changed if needed

(Updated: June, 11, 2024)

In this world all cities on Cybertron have dedicated musicians that are elected through the most popular vote. There is no war, but movements for the political system to be overrun and remade. Many of the elected musicians are there to help the people, to give them strength and courage to speak against the oppressive policies the government gives them.

The aesthetics of the people differ from city to city. (Examples)

Iacon: Synthwave/Vaporwave

Kaon: Dark Synthwave

The changes also go to the different genres of music the top musicians create and play in live shows.

Iacon: Chill Electronic/Pop/Etc.

Kaon: Phonk/Metal/Etc.

With the different types of music, there are collaborations to blend different types of music together! Granted I have only really thought about Megatron and Optimus so far in this Au, I'm playing on adding Elita-1 and a few others soon though!

How the politics in this Au work: Here

How the dimension portals work: Here

Abt Optimus and Megatron:

\\Optimus -

-Stage name: DJ Synthrave

-Public & Known name: Paxius (Pax-ē-us) / Pax

>> Musician of Iacon

>Personality: Always cheerful and happy, polite, easily excitable, loves learning new things, extroverted, doesn't catch most mood swings and can't read a room (Megs has to explain A LOT to him)

REF SHEET: (Don't remove signatures)

\\Megatron

-Stage name: DJ Deathgrip

-Public name: D-16 /or 16 /or Six

-Private name: (Close circle) Tronix (Tron-íx)

>> Musician of Kaon

>Personality: Introverted, blunt, hard around the edges, secretly a softie, over analyzes everything, sounds grumpy 24/7 but actually isn't, knows a lot about everything (and can explain it in great detail)

REF SHEET 4 MEGS: (pls don't remove my signatures)

The back view is the true version of his backpack (thing), an updated ref sheet will be made soon.

>/>\\\\\</<

These two are great friends, completely inseparable. (More so if you ship Megop, which is completely up to you if you do.)

Within both of their specific cities they are under a lot of pressure due to different reasons, and the different cultures, different politics, etc. So they hide on Earth to relax (Continuities that work: Earthspark, Tfp, Idw Mtmte)

Dedicated hashtag: Tfau cyberpunk

I wanna see y'all's art, stories, and ideas! @ me if I don't see it!

Earth is a Shardworld and TRON proves it.

<<Spoilers for all published Cosmere works and the TRON Films>>

Good evening fellow Radiants, Mistborn, and other Comerenauts. There has been plenty of discussion surrounding many long standing questions in the Comere. What is the intent of the 16th shard? Is Earth in the Cosmere? Why hasn’t Scadrial developed computers yet?

Well the answers to all of those questions are revealed to us in Disney’s TRON (1982), which I believe was ghostwritten by Brandon Sanderson (1975)

In TRON, Kevin Flynn, after provoking the MCP, becomes trapped in the Cognitive Realm of Earth, called 'The Grid', and has to partner with cognitive shadows, called Programs, to defeat the main villain, called the Master Control Program (basically if the Stormfather decided to go Lord Ruler on the Spren after the Recreance).

Kevin, alongside programs Tron and Yori, use their differing knowledge of the magic system to stop the MCP from taking control of the Grid, a land of Programs that represent various functions within the physical world. Ring a Kharbranthian bell? Here’s a hint, replace the Grid with Shadesmar, MCP with Odium, and Kevin, Tron, and Yori with Kaladin, Adolin, and Shallan.

What’s interesting though is this world’s magic system, called Programming, creates these Programs in a much more direct and intentional way than how a Seon or Spren is created. It's sort of a cross between AonDor and Awakening, where you use an interface to write Command words that directly shape Investiture, which they call "Power", into a being called a Program.

Programs are keyed to the Identity of the User that created them and take on their appearance, as well as develop an Identity Disc, a device that contains the Intent of the Program and Identity of the User. I think these Identity Discs are the real reason that TRON will be revealed as part of the Cosmere as they open up so many issues we have when it comes to Identity. If one can key their identity onto a spren or fabrial, it's likely to have profound effects on future investiture technology.

Additionally, years later, in the events of TRON: Legacy, it's revealed that a group of people have mysteriously emerged in the cognitive realm. I believe these 'ISOs' are actually the Iriali and potentially IRE combined into one faction. If it's not a simple error of poor adaptation of the source material, this could be why the ISOs are not blonde and have a more personal connection with Investiture.

Now that Disney has started filming TRON: Ares and Sanderson has mysteriously stopped talking about that 'Mistborn' screenplay, I think it'll be revealed soon that Sanderson not only wrote TRON: Ares, but that TRON: Ares will actually be the first Mistborn Era 3 entry and will follow the plot of the Scadrains discovering Earth and trying to weaponize the Grid against Roshar.

Some Points:

Many might think that this sounds like Invention, but I think the shardic intent here is 'History' or 'Memory'. Most of the magic system at it's core, very subtly works to continously preserve data, like the Identity Discs and typical operations of the various Prorams, such as the MCP going rogue after aquiring significant amounts of data. If we consider shardic intents to be aspects of god divorced from divinity (or absolute divinity. There's a WoB on this.), then it stands to reason there's one shard dedicated to rememberence, and we know the last shard is trying very hard to survive but doesn't have 'survival' as an intention. A Historian Shard could definitely fit the bill.

MCP is corrupted Investiture, that's why it's red, but Clu is an avatar of Autonomy, which is why his faction is orange-red. Clu's entire idea is basically the same as Telsin, except probably lacking in nuclear armaments. Probably.

The device that takes the Flynns on and off the Grid is not a shardpool but a very sophisticated fabrial hooked to a shardpool. I think there's one major difference; the fabrial kills you and turns you into a cognitive shadow (Hence why Kevin could live on the Grid for ages without sustenance beyond investiture)

Daft Punk is canonically Hoid.

I have no idea why I wrote this.

Omfg! I've just discovered that there was a whole ass ARG before the release of Tron Legacy (FLYNN LIVES)

LOOK AT THAT VIDEO!!! FULL DEDICATED WEBSITES, A RECREATION OF FLYNN'S ARCADE, PEOPLE HUNTING FOR CLUES, PEOPLE 'GETTING INTO' THE END OF THE LINE, FLYNN'S NOTES ON HIS PROJECTS, AN ENCOM PRESS CONFERENCE AND INTERVIEW WITH ALAN BRADLEY, THAT GORGEOUS LIGHTCYCLE. MY GOODNES WHOEVER HAD THE IDEA WAS A FUCKING GENIUS.

Is there someone in here that participated in it? If yes, please tell me how it really was/ how it went, if it was really this cool.

Idk why but I find all of it really exciting, even tho, if I knew about it back in the day, I wouldn't have been able to participate because I live in Europe and I was a lil kid.

Damn... It would be really cool to have something similar rn, but Disney really fell off and would never put so much effort into something like this ever again.

I love spectating on bizarre fandoms. Love to stumble upon a hitherto unsuspected community passionately dedicated to shipping the characters from, like, Darkwing Duck or Tron. Love to read meta for an early 2000s children's show that ran for two seasons.

[astercontrol]

crossposted from my Discord group because it builds on a concept we talked about there...

the idea of programs (sorta) slut-shaming each other

and my thoughts went in a kinda interesting direction

I mean yeah, I had Tron call Ram "little shareware" in my last smut fic

which yeaah was basically calling him a slut, although it does not have all the same connotations for programs that it does for Users

(I think in that case, between those two, it was on the level of mild friendly teasing-- same goes for Ram's "repressed firewall" retort afterwards)

but a couple things occurred to me

for one: I don't think Ram is literally shareware-- a program written to be free for anyone to use, by someone who's maybe requesting voluntary donations from users who like it.

No, I think writing him was part of Roy's job, and I think the insurance company bought and paid for him.

I think what he is, though, is still kinda slut-connected.

He is a program written for commercial distribution, to be used by many end-users.

Whereas Tron is a program custom-written for his System, to be used primarily-- maybe exclusively-- by the User who created him

which I think is the source of how pious, how dedicated, how serious and task-focused Tron is

And how Ram in contrast is …friendly, outgoing, dedicated to pleasing and helping as many users and programs as possible

Which can be as sexual or as nonsexual as you wanna go in fanfic, I guess, lol

A year ago, I didn't know who Michael Sheen was, other than that he played Aziraphale. In fact, if you asked me who played Aziraphale, I probably would have had to look it up. (I am the worst with names.) I certainly couldn't have told you anything about him, or any of his other work.

(In fairness, I couldn't have told you the names or anything about any of the other GO actors other than David Tennant, and I only knew David because of Doctor Who. I am terrible with names and generally don't care a fig about actors' personal lives.)

One of the many things I am grateful to have gained by diving headfirst into the GO fandom since August 2023 is a knowledge of Michael Sheen, both as an actor and a human. His work is outstanding and so varied, you can tell he picks projects because they are interesting and fun for him, not because they will make him famous (I see you, strange Tron AI and also Prince Andrew.)

And even more, his dedication to making positive change and following his conscience is beautiful and inspiring. I especially admire his commitment to his home, to Wales, and to the Welsh people. Having that deep connection to and fierce desire to protect and uplift a place is so beautifully human, and also so rare in this time when so many of us are disconnected to the places of our ancestry or even our birth.

So happiest of birthdays to actual angel and feral Welshman Michael Sheen. The world is lucky to have you.

[hollowtones]

respect your dedication to typing the word "TRON" in all caps and quotation marks every time

There was a period of time where, literally ANY TIME I abbreviated the name of something, people would come out of the woodworks to do the joke of "I'm gonna willingly ignore all context and misinterpret what this stands for" and I got sick of it immediately, so I started typing out Whole Proper Names in italics or quote marks out of spite.

Then I realized it feels fun to type things out proper-ways. So now I'm doing it for joyful reasons instead of spiteful reasons. Also sometimes it makes strangers on the internet unreasonably angry and that's funny to me sometimes too.
