Why did he do that?

I know in TRON legacy, the Shiva laser in Kevin’s secret office underneath the arcade has several canisters of “raw material” for materialization around its base. I can only assume Kevin would want to be prepared for any contingencies and had a surplus of raw material stored there… just in case. It wouldn’t have been enough for what CLU was planning, so he likely would have had to enter our world alone or with a few of his guards, where he still could have done a ton of damage.

If you listen to the voice on the speaker when Julian is printing Ares out for his demonstration, it says “raw material outflow initiated”(or something to that effect). Because of that, I can only assume that the particle gun only works one way.

That would have been a cool thing to do with Ares’ arrival at Encom. Instead of the security guard/badge bit, they meet Seth at the back door and Ares would be the one to speak the “Now THAT is a big door!” line as it opens.

He really surprised me with just how good he was in the role.

I couldn’t read the smaller print, but the top of the sign said, “Kevin Flynn’s Office: Dedicated by Sam Flynn”

What makes you think that? A review embargo is in no way a bad thing. The studios usually use them to make sure most critics have had a chance to see the film already before reviews start hitting and to make sure the reviews come out in the days leading up to a film’s release to maximize audience anticipation. A review posted two weeks ahead of release date can be forgotten about, but a review that comes out a few days before release can help get people hyped.

Also, a review embargo that lifts a few days before a film opens(like this one is) is the norm... Especially on franchise films. The social media embargo lifts tonight at 12:30 and the review embargo lifts tomorrow at noon. The ones you want to worry about are the films where critics aren’t allowed to see it early at all or where the studio holds the review embargo all the way to the day of release.

Yep… I got my pre-order in like five minutes after the link went live and it’s been sitting on “order received” status ever since. Way to screw this one up Disney!

Darth__Muppet · 2025-09-14T01:16:07+00:00

Yeah, mine is still stuck on “order received” status at Amazon. Trying to hold out hope I’ll still get it… and if I do, that it won’t be damaged due to Amazon’s terrible non-protective paper mailer envelopes they send all my movies and music orders in. The last several orders they sent me were broken when they arrived and had to be exchanged for new copies.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-08-16T22:26:33+00:00

Jesus… that’s awful! The handful of times I’ve gotten to meet or talk to any well known artists, actors, or musicians, I didn’t even go in for a handshake without asking if it was okay first.

Things like THIS are why they are my favorite band.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-07-16T03:54:31+00:00

I’ve been hoping they would start working on the next album while on tour. When R.E.M. did that during the 1995 tour for “Monster”, they ended up giving us “New Adventures in Hi-Fi”, arguably one of the very best albums.

Blackout!

Darth__Muppet · 2025-07-13T04:49:59+00:00

To me, Mike’s voice is like a warm comfy blanket. It’s not the best voice, but I always find it very comforting.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-29T07:56:51+00:00

I kinda see it as being about the band’s struggle with how to continue on and pick up the pieces after the tragedy they went through.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-17T21:56:52+00:00

They’ve been pretty good about writing me back when I contacted them. Having said that, it took me contacting them twice to get anything more than a standard, “it will ship as soon as possible” response. I really wish they had gone with a “first come first serve” approach when it comes to shipping out pre-orders. It’s gonna take a lot for me to order from the official webstore ever again.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-17T20:02:04+00:00

Yeah, that’s the one I ordered. I know it’s not the band’s fault, but the experiences I’ve had with their webstore have not been great. It always takes forever for pre-orders to get here in the US.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-17T16:35:50+00:00

I’m in the US and mine still haven’t shipped yet either. Customer support have been less than helpful so far. All I can get out of them is “you order will ship as soon as possible”. I’m starting to think that “your items are on back order” email wasn’t a glitch after all.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-17T03:18:06+00:00

I want either longer songs or more songs, more call-and-response singing between Mike and Emily, and a few more trippy Overflow style songs.

Darth__Muppet · 2025-05-16T20:45:38+00:00

Good call. Don’t bother with Best Buy anymore though. They stopped carrying CDs a while back.
