LOL going back to the topic of hair on programs.. I think it would be kind of cool if the hair looked sort of like Modding luminescent wire OOH! Electro-luminescent polygonal dreads with kind of a light/dark scrolling barcode, moving from the base of the scalp to the tips of the dreads. The barcode on the dreads could be encoded information depending on what the program has been thinking or saying in the last 30 seconds or something, and the brightness of the hair or speed of the scrolling could change dynamically depending on the program's mood, emotions or level of activity heehee maybe the hair could end in latches to act as a data interface to enable upload and download of code to the program Woohoo! If Yori is the love of Tron's runtime, then does that make her his Amiga? Bring back the Boing ball!

hmm did they do the hair thing in the matrix

Interesting take on it.

For the most part, I don't think hair on programs looks right. At the same time, I really didn't like the bald look used in TRON 2.0. Bald programs look... well, not right either. Bald on the real-world street - ok, but bald programs seem odd, unless they are a representation of a bald user.

Mercury's hair in TRON 2.0 seemed to work, given the program design used on the more modern looking programs. The punk chick's hair kind of worked for me too. Jet's hair did not look right. He should have been helmeted, IMO.

Your take on hair reflecting mood is interesting. My first thought about that is that it could be a cool visualization of programs' moods as they interact. My second thought is would it get distracting really fast if seen all the time?

Facial hair worked on Dumont. Somehow it just fit the character and I bought it without a problem.

Whatever they do, I think that if programs do not have helmets or some kind of head-cover, they should have something representative of hair, but not looking just like regular hair. It should look like something from the digital world, and not just digital hair.

I actually had a dream some time back about a TRON sequel and it really disappointed me (long before any news of TR2N). Many of the design elements weren't right, one of which that stood out like a sore thumb was that all programs were bald. I hated it. I felt like I was watching a digital rehash of THX.

I had a dream about SW Episode I just before it came out. In the dream, I remember being bored and disappointed. There was a scene playing in which many trees or a forest was the setting that I remember from the dream. Then in real life, while watching Episode I, I was reminded of my dream as the film was really disappointing to me.

I sincerely hope TR2N is nothing like I experienced in my dream. Sorry for getting slightly off the topic.

Hair. Digital hair of some kind, or all helmets? Maybe they should just do the cone-head thing. Hey - it worked for Beldar and family.

Greetings, Programs!

I just got back from Siggraph '08 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Well while Disney reps were very very mum on the subject of TR2N a.k.a. "Tron 2",
the new rumor from some people involved and those "in the know" in the CGI and CG Animation industry is that Digital Domain is going to be involved in part with in the creation of CG enviroments and characters for
TR2N.

Representatives for Pixar flatly denied any involvement with "Tron 2" or " TR2N ", saying in a generalised way
"we only do CG Animated character based movies"... So they are claiming no involvement thus far....
Just some food for thought.
End of Line.

This for now it's just the rumor going around.

Many I attempted to talk to said they couldn't really tell me, or confirm due to having signed a Non-Disclosure Contract...

Apparrently Digital Domain is looking to hire experienced and "senior level" Technical 3-D Artists and animators right now for a " huge, upcoming project to begin in 2009..."order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pillwhere to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Not quite truth, unless they have dropped 1906 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0832278/ and John Carter of Mars http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0401729/

I'm just repeated exactly what I was told by a Pixar rep. Like I said it seemed like a "denial of involevment" kind of thing to me.

(like we had when the CC announcement was made/shown... Disney (in my viewpoint), wants to secure their intellectual property in every way possible so rumors are all we got for now. However (this would be dreadful), if they really don't want to invest into the Tron IP in case that they 'think' is won't bring in the dollars, they might try to 'hush' everyone up instead of doing their rightful duty at last min (and I HOPE I'm so very wrong about it).. I only say this because Disney is as weird as Boy George on horseback... Really weird company (they even gave Don Bluth and Garry Goldman the cold shoulder). I wished Walt was still with us...

As long as I've known, Disney has always been wierd. Denying obviously successful movies (and other stuff). Removing the TR2N trailer from youtube (honestly, if they don't want people to see it, why release it?), et cetera. sigh... so self-centered with so much potential...

I posted a blog on MySpace with the TR2N trailer on July 26 and I updated a couple times but the video I have is stilll there

ah! Finally! We're back on topic again... and with some pretty interesting TR2N news! Thanx ShadowDragon!

Another rumor in the "fairly probable" scale, is that Rythm & Hues may be *in part* working on some the CGI, and Effects work for TR2N as well...

ILM is heavilty involved with these:
Iron Man 2, Night at the Museum 2, , Captain America (maybe), Star Trek (the new film by J.J. Abrams), and some other films.

There's no word, not even rumors of them being involved with TR2N for right now.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill
