I tried to do the tron trivia on this site and it isn't working for me. Does it work for anyone else?
For kicks, I made my own trivia site. Y'all should go and test your Tron mettle. Here's the link.

Ram is misspelled as Rom in your quiz.

All too easy.
However...
That question about RAM's user having to like popcorn makes absolutely no sense.

I disagree.
Dan Shor, the actor who played RAM also played the co-worker who asks Alan if he can have some of his popcorn in the scene where Alan is called to Dillinger's office.
Therefore, if we assume that all programs in Tron's world are physical representations of their users in the real world we can assume that co-worker was RAM's user, and he obviously likes popcorn.

Well... It's easy to you and the rest of us because we are true TRON fans. But to the novice fan, they'd have a hell of a time.
I enjoyed the quiz. I just hope that there will be a TRON 2.0 quiz in the near future (only about the story and not about the tech. end).

The co-worker's name, which is not credited anywhere that I know of, is Walter Dizzly. I was told this by Steven Lisberger. He needed someone to do the role and Dan was available, so Dan it was.

RAM was an actuarial program who worked at a big insurance company.
Walter Dizzly worked at ENCOM.
ENCOM is not a big insurance company.
Ergo, Walter Dizzly, who worked at ENCOM, which is not a big insurance company, could not have been RAM's user, and therefore one cannot assume that RAM's user likes popcorn.
Besides, Dan Shor just filled in that part on short notice; that right there tells you that if someone else not featured as a program had been available to play the part, you would never have associated Walter Dizzly with RAM. If Peter Jurasik had been the one to play the part, would you then think that Walter Dizzly was CROM's user? "We are, after all, not God." - Cmdr. J. J. Adams "C is for cookie.

Walter could have written the program, "Ram". Besides, I think we have to accept the movie as canon and not take into account all the "behind the scenes" decisions. Personally, I like the fact Dan Shor did that part...of course I didn't notice it when the movie came out in 82, but knowing it now ties it up in a neat little package. where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Maybe people just think it would be nice if Walter Dizzly wrote RAM, but unfortunately that don't make it so.
There is absolutely nothing in the movie that even hints at the possibility that Walter Dizzly wrote RAM. You don't even get a good look at Walter's face, and the face is the key to associating a program with its user. Most people didn't know Walter was Dan Shore unless they were told, so how can you associate the two?
Furthermore, if you want to stick to canon and not go by "behind the scenes" decisions, then the character Walter Dizzly is actually "the guy that asks for Alan's popcorn" because the part is unnamed and uncredited in the movie. We found out the name from those people who are "behind the scenes".where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online
