Mystery behind Sam's necklace chip: SOLVED

on Monday, October, 10, 2011 1:22 AM
Alright. So, I haven't posted here in awhile, I've just been looking around and reading things. I only thought about posting if I saw something MAJOR- well, I did. I've found an easter egg that pretty explicitly shows exactly WHAT Sam is downloading onto his chip at the end of the movie- something thats been the subject of debate for quite some time. Some say it was Kevin he downloaded, some say it was Tron, some say it was the entire grid. Well, we know what it is now.

The grid.

Allow me to explain. Disney released an iPad app called "Disney Second Screen" that shows things like concept art and film-maker quotes that are related to whats being shown on screen. It connects to your Blu-Ray player to display context-relevant bonus features. One of these bonus features is a never-before-seen video that supposedly shows what's on the computer screen when Sam downloads the info to his chip.

First we see an image of the chip, and text scrolling that's shows Sam logging in (it says "user: root. pass: sam.") and then it says "Downloading files to chip: TRON WORLD" and a loading bar with two graphics- one is a stack of discs (to represent the data on the computer) and another that is the chip, with an arrow pointing from the discs, to the chip. At the bottom you see a bunch of random file names (supposedly the ones being transferred) all of which are things that are in the Tron world, such as "Endoflineclub.zip" etc etc.

I think it's pretty obvious what they're trying to convey here. I'm going to be searching through the app for more easter eggs and hints.

Assuming you are asking "Can I connect my computer to the blu-ray to do the same thing?" and not "Can I use the iPad app while watching the movie on the computer" the answer is no. Or at least, I don't think so. where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Also, its interesting to note that theres actually some insight into the functions of the Shiva laser as well. One of the filmmakers says that they consulted with scientists to make it as real as possible, and so under the chairs they included canisters that collected things- specifically, the water vapor and carbon that you leave behind when you're digitized. order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

See, the clip isn't over there at the ending when he saves it all onto his chip. It's closer to the begin, around when Sam and his Dad are talking. If you can't find it there, I'd try going in WITHOUT connecting it to the movie, because theres always that option.

I went through most of it, couldn't find any easter eggs but some other interesting things- I.E, in the flashback sequence, the characters were intended to be wearing original Tron suits. on line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill online

If you're referring to me, it's because I don't own a bluray player and thus, dont own the film.

They only recently decided they'd let you roam around the thing on your own.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

That sounds like it backs up the possibility that Quorra used Flynn's matter when she left the system with Sam.

Please, no more talk about the laser and how it works. That causes too much fighting.

so if Sam saved the entire Grid on his necklace file saver, does that mean the system is active or in stasis?

I've wondered that about flash drives/discs/etc. I would assume in stasis until you plug it in and it has power-- in the case of a CD or DVD, whatever's on it is probably "asleep" perpetually until you actually install it onto a system. (Of course, I realized a few weeks ago that I've been doing all my post-T:L writing as if it's still active, but I'm just going to leave that a plot hole because I'm feeling too lazy to figure it out-- not sure if I really want it all taking place on a new server so I'll just hope nobody notices!)where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Can't have 'computing' without a CPU. The necklace appears to be memory card with a flashing diode for nothing other than Hollywood effect.

However you know a copy of the grid is still on that machine he powered down, though it doesn't mean it current state was saved. Flynn could be gone and everything reset to whenever the grid was last saved. Think of it like a word processing document, you type a whole bunch in it, but until you save if you shut off the computer its gone. Thats kind of like the grid, whatever the last state was when it was saved is where its at.

The movie implies that Sam downloaded the most recent state, Flynn gone, Tron in the Sea of Sim.

I do the same, Kat. I likened it to that episode of Next Gen when the crew created a world for Dr Moriarty to exist in perpetually. Now that was plugged into something so maybe not quite the same, but when I write, Yeah, Sam saved something but not the entire Grid. Otherwise I would have no stories.

Yes... Fighting... Chaos... Good News!


Knowing how fast time moves in the Grid relative to the real world, it could be very interesting to know how long things continued in the Grid after Sam left and before he shut down the servers.... order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill
