Yes he created the foundational coding for The Grid and many of it's vehicles, and assembled the Shiva system based on Lora Baine' s technology she developed (with Walter Gibbs). (As shown in the original TRON)

But I am sure the Shiva system does have it's inate limitations, no matter how it's "re-programmed". Even Star Trek Replicators are not shown materializing whole StarShips, a Star base, or massive buildings.
Component parts replication yes, which are then assmebled by teams of people yeah. But even with Anti-matter-matter reactor to power things, you never see a Replicator materialize a whole damn starship. Like wise I highly doubt the Shiva would materialize the Carrier and all the vehicles and soliders on board.

Energy isn't the limitation in a Star Trek replicator, it's memory. Storing the information needed to construct huge objects from scratch, with the precise location of every atom, is beyond the ability of Trek computers.

The Shiva has no such limitation. It's ALREADY not only storing the information on the carrier, the army, and an entire city full of individuals, it's running them in a full simulation in real time. Computational power is not an issue.

Look, you can choose where to end your suspension of disbelief. But you can't pass off your opinion as canon. Like it or not, the film's script disagrees with you. Take it or leave it.

Please, show me exactly in the typed script where it specifically says "the carrier and everything aboard would enter physically into the real world". I'm pretty sure it doesn't say that. Flynn's comments do not neccessarily equate to what would actually happen IMO. I'm not saying my opinion is "canon". I've given specific details and logical reasons why it wouldn't work in past posts. I'm not going to repeat it all over again.

Your way to quick to choose to dismiss them, that's your choice, unfortunately. Have to agree to disagree.

So, until I see specific statement from Joe or the script writters proving otherwise. I will say that it's not possible, in my point of view. Not saying it's "set in stone canon".

Flynn and Sam's bodily matter doesn't equal massive construct army and vehicles in the real-world, and nothing indicates the laser could or was even set-up to even be able to siphon off enough energy and local matter to materialize the whole damn army in the real world.

Until some novelization, canon material is published, the writers, or Joe explain verbatim how it could be done. I'm going to think it could NOT be done.

Using this argument I could say that the entire movie would not happen, as an ICT technician and software programmer I know that programs do not walk around inside a computer in a somewhat virtual world it just doesn't happen.....fact.

However because I am watching a make believe movie I am able to enjoy myself and be entertained by the idea. I don't sit there saying "Well that isn't possible because......." and I was using the death star as an example, but again using your argument star wars could not have happened because humans evolved on earth and not in a galaxy far far away. So like you I am going to think that it could NOT happen

Have I made my point yet that we have to take for granted what we are told in a story or shall I keep going??

Okay Transformers, you cannot look at a sound wave and see data in the graphical interface that you are seeing in your computer. This is fact so that whole plot line of the movie is rubbish. In fact MOST movies are impossible or we are told things for granted, Iron man's armour "just works" we are offered no explination of how or why it works it just does. I don't look into why I just enjoy it, I am told in the fictional movie I am watching that it works so I enjoy it. Same here, Clu has discovered a way of doing it. If he could not do it then what is the point of the movie? The movie has no point, there is no need to watch it at all because we know that it could no way in shape happen so I'll not bother watching Tron 3 when it comes out because it can't possibly happen ;D

Not having a rant here or anything guys I am hoping that you all read this with the light heartedness and chuckle I had when I wrote this. The simple fact is that we should just enjoy the movie for what it is, a good movie.

Would his plan have worked....honestly I don't know because Clu was stopped before we could find out. However the guy who created the Grid and used the tech almost every day since the end of the first movie believed that it was possible, so we have to assume that it is possible. At least until Tron 3 comes out and we find out for a fact either way at least.

ShadowDragon1 Wrote:Please, show me exactly in the typed script where it specifically says "the carrier and everything aboard would enter physically into the real world". I'm pretty sure it doesn't say that.

This is a moot point seeing as no one here has a copy of the script so your argument is also invalid.

ShadowDragon1 Wrote:So, until I see specific statement from Joe or the script writters proving otherwise. I will say that it's not possible, in my point of view. Not saying it's "set in stone canon".

They already have its called the part of the script where Flynn says the line "He's found a way to do it"

Again not having a go at you or anything like that I am just saying we cannot say for a fact either way but we have to assume that it can happen as the creator of the grid says it can.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

ShadowDragon1 Wrote:Materialize his whole army physically no, I highly doubt it.

I think only Clu would of materialized in the Real World. But if he's smart enough, he could pose as Flynn, and set up a connection from the The Grid server to the Internet' and then pull the whole "Skynet taking over all digital networks" thing has his forces spread across the worldwide networks taking over every "system"....


That's interesting, I've never thought of it that way. His army taking over the net while he prepares things from the real world as Kevin Flynn. He could become very powerful. Making Dillinger look like baby Jesus. Once he's got unlimited resources at his disposal he could build more Shiva lasers or something more powerful and bring over huge armies. Programs would then rule over users. Something Satan wanted to do in heaven, be God.

If you read Star Trek books on the technology it says that they used replicators to build houses. So why would Kevin think it could do that?

they use Replicators to make the all building materials, and then build the house via manual labor.

They still have star ships assembled in space, it's just all the components that make up the ship that are replicated with Replicators. I know of no Federation tech, giant replicator that projects a wide ray beam that can just materialize a complete, fully functioning ship *ever* mentioned in any ST series or movie.

I've watched every episode of every ST series, and it's never mentioned that large buildings or full, complete star ships are replicated whole.order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pillabortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I don't mean to butt in here, but I'm pretty sure that Tron and Star Trek aren't canon with each other.

Also, Clu's plan probably would have worked. He's an essential clone of a genius computer engineer and the line "He's found a way to do it" probably wasn't thrown into the script just because it sounded cool. It'll probably (hopefully) be explained in Tron Uprising or Tron 3.

again; Flynn's assumptions =/= what would actually happen.
Do I really have to repeat the well-reasoned explaination why it would not be possible in the context of the Tron universe? I've posted it in past threads at least 3-4 times. But some people seem to just ignore it or dismiss my point of view without considering that as I explain things, that it might actually make the most sense.

I was using Star Trek replicators and their capability and limitation as an example/comparison with the functionality/capabilities/limitation of the Shiva laser digitization and materialization system.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Fun discussion.

Flynn is how old in the Tron Universe... 1000 cycles? Seemed a bit senile when we first see him. Gradually comes back to himself, but not sure..

Flynn isn't God outside the Grid. he's just another flesh and blood human. What I'm getting at are the physics and energy limitations of the world that we inhabit. Conservation of Mass, pretty fundamental law. Energy goes in, mass stays behind in an ashtray.

Even Star Trek replicators function by transforming bulk matter into a new form. Most of the better starship diagrams show a bulk matter storage area. That's the raw material for the replicators - they don't make something from literal nothingness.

That's what I'm getting at here. The Shiva strips the energy signature out of the human, and drops the left-overs into the storage can. Shiva combines that matter with the energy as it rebuilds the human (or fruit) later. There was only enough material for two humans in the cans. Someone would have had to hook up some bulk matter to build all those soldiers and war machines.

Flynn's mini-shiva (because it is NOT the same laser from ENCOM according to the book) likely had a failsafe to avoid annihilating the world around it. The things is really just a glorified 3d scanner/printer/ashtray, not a doomsday weapon. It is a really big peripheral, not a storage device. I'd bet that the patterns for each person are stored on the server itself, not the Shiva.

Also, Flynn's remark may have been in the idea of a program leaving the Grid in general and not the entire army.

Okay can all those who have a PHD in advanced quantum physics please raise your hands........anyone?

Because thats what we are talking about here with the Shiva laser, however if you want to get right down to possibilities and saying "oh it wouldn't work because of x or y" I'll invoke the Heisenberg uncertainty principle:

"Heisenberg uncertainty principle states precise inequalities that constrain certain pairs of physical properties, such as measuring the present position while determining future momentum; both cannot be simultaneously done to arbitrarily high precision. That is, the more precisely one property is measured, the less precisely the other can be controlled or determined."

In other words the beam that transports you into the grid CANNOT PHYSICALLY WORK, so therefore the entire movie is rubbish.....but hold on............it does work in the movie that means we are changing the laws of physics which means that anything is possible even the "He has found a way to do it" Like Tron.dll states the line isn't in there for no reason at all, there is your canon proof that it will work. And if you want to talk about physically impossible things then read above because physics dictate that at the present moment at least digitizing someone into the computer would not work because of the reasoning above, so unless we do have any quantum physicists in the forum who have cracked this issue out, sitting there saying "it would not work" even though we have the movie saying it will, is just complete silly.

Again Hope you all take this in the light heartedness that is was written

Clu says this. Now explain that!!

Greetings, programs! Together we have achieved a great many things. We have created a vast, complex system. We've maintained it; we've improved it. We've rid it of its imperfection. Not to mention, rid it of the false deity who sought to enslave us! Kevin Flynn!! Where are you now?! My fellow programs, let there be no doubt that our world is a cage no more. For at this moment, the key to the next frontier is finally in our possession! And unlike our selfish creator, who reserved the privilege of our world only for himself, I will make their world open and available to all of us. Yes, to all of us! And whatever we find there, our system will grow. Our system will blossom! Do this, prove yourself to me, be loyal to me, and I will never betray you! - Maximize efficiency, rid the new world of its imperfection! My vision is clear, fellow programs. Out there is a new world! Out there is our victory! Out there...is our destiny.

Thats true which maybe they are leaving them for the third movie? I did feel like there were a few things that needed expanding on like the whole Program into reality concept this is clearly going to be open for the third movie. Here is a crazy concept what if the MCP wasnt erased but was expelled into the real world after Flynn.....dun dun dunnnnn!

Ah, so we are back to the "magic" explanation.

If you buy that someone can be transported into the grid - when it's not possible, then everything else must be taken at face value and there's no point in questioning the possibilities within the confined of the boundaries established by the movie.

That's the same logic as watching Transformers without noticing how wrong the geography is at every possible turn.

As noted, I too figured that when Kevin said "he figured out how to do it" he was talking about Clu getting out. In fact that's ALL he could have meant. Kevin didn't know about a huge army of machines and rectified soliders.

I'm not a PhD Physicist, but my uncle is. He works at FEMILabs in Batavia, IL.
So I'll ask him next time. He more of a super-collider sort of guy, but I'm sure he can weigh in. Would that make you happy?

Honestly, though, PhD doesn't make you an expert on all things. In fact all higher education will teach you (and I know this because I do have an advanced degree) is what you don't know about in your own field. where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online
