 		I'm bought in, the EOC poster & the Comicon chase posters are legit enough plus a 9-track tape recorder & a variac lying around are the kinda wierd stuff a set designer would throw in for "effect". Maybe it's a short for the BluRay & not a whole movie, but I'd guess the pics are legit.

That's great, my friends and I were joking around after the film saying that we wished the popcorn guy was in it. Looks like he will be (if this is real)!


I JUST read that on IMDB and couldn't believe I didn't know Dan Shor played both for the longest time! Shocked

I would love there to be a backstory between Dillinger and Real World Ram. I can picture the MCP appropriating Ram's programs, possibly framing him for the MCP transgressions (how would ENCOM explain the MCP hacking into the Pentagon system?) post Kevin's disappearance, leading him into exile from ENCOM.

This would explain a lot of the energy ZackAttack/RAM put into finding Kevin as he knows his friend could not only restore ENCOM's good name, but would clear his own name.

 		I guess whata get's me about this is

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The idea that Dillinger & Son have some kind of plan, and that the events of Legacy as the real world sees it (Encom OS leaked, Sam takes over company, brings Quorra with him) fit into it perfectly. Besides some genius plan to take Encom back or get revenge on the Flynns & Friends, could they really be that much of a danger? Or has Dillinger been doing some stuff with digitization technology himself that has changed his goals and outlook of things like the way it did for Kevin Flynn?)

Looking at this image, I found a few things interesting and a bit funny.
There's a Flynn's Arcade token on the desk.
There are a couple of notes from the ARG pinned to the bulletin board, as well as an envelope.
The FL posters with the red Bit and red light cycle are kind of funny. That Bit of course represents "no" and the red light cycle was RAM's.
There's also a map on the wall with a location marked, no idea where that location is.

Most of this set could easily be created by a fan. I don't get why you would pin up notes you made for others, or an envelope you made for others (if this is the FL HQ).

Those, of course, were the posters used at SDCC '10 for the 'scavenger hunt' on the first night of Flynn's Arcade...

...aaaaaaand now I finally get the joke. Smile

As for the bitterness from Tron-Sector, it could be that they were not the center of the universe for Flynn Lives. Goodness knows that early on several here tried to get people to participate a bit over there too, as they were suggested as a better place for non-ARG specific discussion. That didn't work too well, and maybe we can see why.


I think I managed to invoke that. I apologized on BOTH sides for that, but yeah...I've had a few posts bounced as well. Maybe they're still annoyed at me for suggesting we not duplicate efforts.

You know, and I'm just speculating here, this could be more ARG and less sequel.

When they originally splashed the footage at ComiCon, it was all to test the waters. Maybe they're duplicating the same thing here, but basically rallying the base post FL (round 1) to see how big they/we've grown.

Knowing that, it could be that there are things on the DVD that lead to another startup. Or, it could just be their way of putting special features on the DVD that pay tribute to the ARG. I was always annoyed that *no* mention of The Beast was done on the AI DVD, so maybe they've learned. I'd love to see that the game vids & story are immortalized on the DVD.

Here's to hoping things start up with either the DVD/BluRay release or an announcement at ComiCon this year. Smile

Also, nice nod to Tron (also the little FL photocopies right there).



BTW, that's how you know it's fake...Zack couldn't possibly have an untouched bowl of popcorn. He's so ravenous, he eats Alan's! Wink

 		Yeah, same thing with no mention of Why So Serious on the TDK discs. Sad

 		I gotta say, it all looks legit to me. There's even what looks to be a Flynn Lives shirt tucked underneath some papers near the popcorn.

Hurray! It feels good that we're going to see this kind of treatment after everything else they did this year. Very Happy

 		I believe I have just babbled myself.... Shocked

IF this is real, I don't know where to begin!! Should we be looking for clues in these images? There's a map on the wall with a large X on it...

I only have 2 images - is there a third?

UPDATE:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I opened up the images in Wordpad. I found that IMG_5080.jpg was taken by "Dougmcclintock" on a "Canon EOS 5D Mark II" camera.

There's a website for "Dougmcclintock" - appears to be a photographer:
http://dougmcclintock.com/

Interestingly, IMG_1308.jpg was taken on an iPhone. Both photos were taken on the 22nd November 2010.

His work looks a lot like some of the images used for the location clue pics in the campaign.

 		Was there a Doug mentioned in either of the movies or in the ARG?
