Well, considering he more or less purred while not in his own mind, the name seems justifiable. He just needs some ears.

...deviantART's probably already having a field day with this.

Apparently no one remembers this scene
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
When Rinzler is chasing the aircraft and Flynn spots him out the left side of the craft going in to attack CLU he wispers "Tron". Then as rinzler is fading into the water his suit turns from red to blue.

Rinzler is the evil version of Tron which was brought about when they all broke up.


and as far as the double identity discs
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
When Tron, Clu, and flynn split up during the short history part in the movie, tron is fighting off the programs attacking Flynn and he grabs one of their discs, looks at it and then puts them both up in the air like he did whenever he was a bout to fight. This would be when he first gets the two discs and perhaps it was one of these discs that corrupts him....

Actually if you listen closely, it sounds more like a subdued modem or fax connection... like a form of data exchange. None of the other reds have that, only Rinzler. Almost as if some coding was perhaps... repressing him? like a virus or corrupt code. hm.

Flynn stated that Clu 2.0 couldn't delete a program, only re-purpose them (Rectifier or games?)

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Tron was still fulfilling his programming to protect the system, just that it was Clu's skewed view of the system,

Until he remembered he fights for the users.

The first time I saw the movies (so far I have seen it three times) I was a bit put off by
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

the apparently abrupt conversion of Rinzler back into TRON during the light plane sequence. Then the second time I watched closely as Rinzler's jet did the loop over Flynn and realized that Flynn's light (aura, digital imprint, whatever) was reflected directly in Rinzler's helmet. My take is that this was the first time that Rinzler/TRON had been that close to Flynn since his conversion by Clu. Remember that Flynn never actually saw what happened to TRON when Clu took him down. So I look at it as when Rinzler got close enough to Flynn, he was "rebooted" by Flynn's energy field, resulting in the "I fight for the users" statement and reconversion back to TRON.

yeah, that's what I took it as, a modem handshake on dialing. It'd be pretty sweet if they actually encoded a message in what he was saying.

Tron is Rinzler

Note: This is a world created and designed by Kevin Flynn. It seems obvious that he would ask Alan Bradley for a copy of Tron, to help safeguard his world... what program would he trust more? So he inputs Tron, and Clu2, and then himself...

It seems pretty clear that Tron is the one doing the fighting in the trailer for Tron: Evolution. And it seems pretty convincing that Rinzler's suit is the same as Tron's. As for the color discrepancy, remember, Flynn himself changed his colors in the original film (then changed back).

Therefore, my speculations: Rinzler could be Tron, undercover. Or Rinzler could be Tron2, a duplicate program created by Clu2 to serve his *own* purposes (all of Tron's abilities, none of his ethics).



Just to let you all know,

Yes,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Rinzler is Tron. He sacrificed himself to save Kevin from Clu2 and was repurposed.

This is not a spoiler, Kevin Flynn dying in the movie
is the spoiler.

Thank you,

Arcko

spoilered all that is indeed a movie spoiler -thebruce

Trons head was cut off by CLU2. Thus the gurgle. Thus not EVER seeing his face in or under the helmet.

He no longer has one.

Er, no. What Flynn said was "TRON, what have you become?" Razz
