Grappling hook stealing Flynn's disc

on Saturday, April, 09, 2011 7:06 AM
It didn't dawn on me till now, that the hook actually catches Flynn in the center of the disc, and the hooks aren't wide enough to touch it. Which pretty much means, if anything should've happened, it'd be Flynn getting dragged backward. The grappler never actually touches the disc. Oops.

looks to me like the tips of the grapple claw are touching each of the four little nodules on the disc...where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill onlineabortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

It changes colors with his wardrobe.

When he has white on, his disc is white, so when he has black on, his disc changes color then, too.where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Why would Kevin even need a disc? He's not a program who needs to communicate with a user.

Having said that, really, what is all the big deal about losing your disc? Kevin lost his and Quorra switched hers. Or is it because they weren't programs, they were exempt?

Obviously the color changes when he has a different robe on, but why? How does it change color? Does he have a second disc? What's the purpose other than to match? Can any program accessorize so cleverly ?

The disc was the only way he could get out of the Grid VIA the portal. Quorra, as an ISO, didn't need a disc either, as she was born on the grid, instead of created.

For instance the scene in which Sam is leaving the grid, he uses his father's disc to get out.

Like mentioned in another thread, the disc they [the ISO's] have is more of back up than anything else, since that was the only way her derezzed hand could come back together was by Flynn-tervention.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I thought the black one was the Key to exiting the Grid, plus who knows what other things he has attached to it. But then that would give the white one no purpose, since Flynn is a User. Chameleon disks seem silly. order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

I guess if it touches the nodes, it clamps down onto the disc, and it just comes off the nubby-thing.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Quite frankly, i just attribute it to the clothing change. Which, to me, represents a change of mindset. So if his attitude/intentions have changed, why wouldn't something so personal as his disc also change?

I mean, the switch to black clothing tells us, before any dialogue happens, that KF has made a choice about something--he's decided it's time for kicking ass and taking names. It's a cliche, of course, that he's switching from "peaceful" white to "ninja" black, but I think there's more than that too:

Black is the original color he was wearing in the Grid. You could say it's what he was wearing back when his attitude was different, when he was taking an active part in the Grid rather than sitting on the sidelines doing his own thing. In addition, black is also the color that just about every other program wears, so you could say the change also represents that he is not setting himself apart from everyone else anymore (hiding out).



What do you want? I'm busy.


Program, please!


Chaos.... good news.

Because everything you learn and ever know is imprinted on it. A user using an ID disc, especially Kevin Flynn, could be able to instantly recall info when he needs it. Don't believe me? Kevin Flynn didn't know for certain if a program using his disc could exit out. But CLU figured out he could because of the information on the disc. That means that Kevin Flynn, over the thousand cycles on the Grid, picked up bits and pieces along the way about it and never knowingly put two and two together.

Basically, it serves as a backup system, like the old tape drives for PCs.

Incorrect. Sam used his Disc to get off the system. He used his father's disc to get Quorra off the system. Rewatch the scene, you'll see that Sam holds up both discs (one on top of the other).where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Does de-rezzing occur when you lose your disc or is it a punishment handed out by whomever is controlling the grid?

"If you lose your disc, or fail to follow commands, you will be subject to immediate de-resolution."

Breaking it apart:

"If you lose your disc, or fail to follow commands"

Failing to follow commands is something all the main characters do in the original film (Yori, Tron, Ram, and Flynn being great examples), and they aren't ever derezzed out of nowhere are they? :P

"You will be subject to immediate de-resolution"

This implies that there is a chance that you will be derezzed immediately, presumably by a guard or sentry.

In short, it implies a death penalty.where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

Something that always confused me about discs, particularly in the first film is, discs are needed to communicate with Users, so even before the MCP got involved, logically every program would have one. So why are discs being issued by Sark? If they wanted to ensure Programs were cut off from the Users, wouldn't taking away their discs be a logical solution?on line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill onlineabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Good point. But maybe if Sark took away all the discs? None of the programs would do what they were supposed to, and the users on the other end would have figured out that something corrupted the system and pulled the plug on the whole thing; deleting Sark and the MCP as well.

Anybody notice that Sam's disc looked white before they attached it to his back?
