    Flynn's words about "I wrote you. I taught you everything about the system. You're the best program that's ever been written. You're dogged and relentless" are downright creepy when you think about Legacy.

      He wasn't a monster; a tragic antagonist perhaps, but only followed his programming. Flynn created him, so he only knew what Flynn himself believed and knew at that particular time. After having a family and seeing the grid expand, Flynn changed but CLU was stuck. Forever bound to the grid, which is why he saw the ISO's as a perversion of the grid, an ugly and imperfect being that didn't do what the rest of the grid inhabitants did at the time, follow your directives and programs.
      I think of the ISO's as the first step towards Artificial Intelligence, "In the Real World", because remember this is what is happening inside. Programs becoming alive or thinking for themselves? A disaster in the real world. Clu just wanted to do what Fllynn made him to do. Perhaps the ISO angle wasn't explained as well, but that's how I think of it, the first steps of advanced AI's. What if the computer or program your using right now crashed because it didn't like what you were doing? That's an ISO. Its starting to think and have sentience. Clu was just trying to keep order.
      If programs can be re--purposed, maybe Flynn could have done the same to Clu. But it probably wouldn't have gone well. Maybe he couldn't, I don't know, as that part wasn't explained. But Clu did figure out a way. Remember, he's just a program designed by his creator to complete his directives. He doesn't have as much free will as an ISO or a User. In his mind, he was just trying to save the grid. Even if it meant turning against his creator. Maybe some saw him as a monster, but he didn't have the ability to think beyond his original , some creative deviant methods and either re-purposing the faulty programs or removing them in the games, which originally were not lethal and just for fun.
      I felt he was a tragic anti-hero. Imagine having all those directives and all that power and ability, but trapped and unable to go anywhere or do much where he was. Hence, the page to Alan in the Real World and his speech that mirrored Flynn's towards the end. He saw "out there" (the real world) for freedom. He wanted a system of ultimate perfection. Kevin Flynn's original dream and commands, imprinted onto Clu 2.0 That's how he saw it and how I interpreted things. (wow - this got long. sorry)

      @@jiryensaber6090 The thing is the Flynn who created Clu 2.0 was NOT the real Flynn. He was a poor copy of Flynn. The real Flynn would never have created such a flawed program. Watch the original movie to see who Flynn really was; an idealistic programmer who believed that the system did not have to be the exclusive domain of the top level programmers. What we saw in Legacy was only a shadow of Flynn. The system could not handle his virtue and kindness. We see this in the fact that Clu turned on him. Clu IS the system. Clu is the MCP without any of the experience of the MCP. Clu is why Flynn changed. The real Flynn was still in the system somewhere. I think the ISOs were Flynn trying to reassemble himself after being scattered by Clu's attempt to live up to buggy code.

      Nope. It said nothing of the sort. Clu was not an executable. Clu was most likely a .com as it would take a command level program to break into a high security memory. He didn't freeze and crash. If anything the stolen tank program crashed. There is one inconsistency here. Never once does Flynn have any sort of visual display on his screen. Yet somehow he knows exactly what Clu is doing. Unless Flynn somehow is able to read code like an Operator in the Matrix, there is no way in hell he knows what Clu is doing.

  • @totoshampoin
    @totoshampoin 4 роки тому +113

    So I might have covered what happens computer-wise here!
    Flynn tries to send his program Clu to the system.
    This program has to get through the firewall, which he manages to 0:50
    Unfortunately, Antivirus MCP's data analysers (known as Recognizers) has detected Clu as a virus 1:27
    The recognizers are basically occurences of some recognizer.exe which would be a subprogram of MCP meant to read datas and report anomalies, which would mean Clu is trying to corrupt (destroy) each of them in the server's RAM (the Random Access Memory, not the program), which is obviously futile as the MCP has plenty of them.
    Clu's process ends up freezing after terminating another Recognizer (Clu.exe has stopped working) 2:25
    Then MCP catches him and proceeds to analyze then terminate the virus 3:10
    Through his analysis, he reads the code might be similar to Flynn's coding (MCP is most likely an AI program, since he's able to communicate with users) and decides to report Flynn's effraction to Dilinger (did I spell it correct?), just as any antivirus must alert the user when a threat has been caught.
    Of course, that's all my interpretations and I have no idea if that was the intention... But I like to think it was, as it would be very clever.

      that sounds pretty much exactly what a computer would do in real time, it detects a program or something is trying to enter it illegally, sees it as a virus, proceeds to capture/isolate and then deletes it, or even stores it in a safe/isolated area where it can't gain access to anything, and then either 'deletes it' after a period of time, or tells the User what it found, and asks them to delete it.

    • @telperion4441
      @telperion4441 Рік тому +2

      Tech seems on point. One correction: The Master Control Program wasn't an anti-virus program. It may have had that capability but it was actually a general administration program meant to facilitate and enhance the day to day tasks of Encom employees. Dilinger, who was effectively the MCP's user (it was actually a chess program that he found and modified for his purposes) began giving it instructions to steal other programs and take on their functions in order to take credit off the ideas and profit from them. So possible the MCP took over an anti-virus program previoiusly and was doing as you say, but its primary purpose was not an anti-virus, quite the opposite actually.

    Clu is the only known program (besides Abraxas) to have yellow circuitry. Apparently, it’s because he is a foreign program created by Flynn, which makes him distinct from normal programs (Blue) and MCP programs (red).

    • @adamwalker4709
      @adamwalker4709 2 роки тому +5

      Actually, in the canon of TRON, the colored circuitry dictates a program's purpose. Programs that are default in nature, meant to do what they're designed for when it comes to businesses and corporations are all blue, which is also why users have the default blue, but are also capable of other colors as seen when Flynn absorbs the red circuitry of one of the MCP programs. Programs with yellow circuitry are programs designed specifically for hacking purposes, so they could be considered to be a hacking program like CLU or possibly a virus or even an inoperative data pushing program. Green circuitry is only ever seen on programs that were written by military personnel, hence why the kidnapped military programs were being used to operate the game tanks when Flynn, TRON, and RAM fled the light cycle grid. Red circuitry is for programs that were either corrupted or diverged sharply from their original programming (i.e. the MCP as it was originally just a Chess program), or are failing to operate/slowly derezzing.

    A little "TRON" personal backstory. I saw this at the theatre in 1982. When it was available on VHS, I used to play the scene back over and over. Part of this scene used to put me in a trance or very relaxed state. If you go to 0:37 you'll notice a slight hum or melodic sound (used throughout the film in other parts). Not sure if that was a part of Wendy Carlos' soundtrack or just an effect added to the computer world sounds...but it was sooo soothing when I was kid. Now, with youtube, I can have it repeat and use it for meditation. I would be interested in knowing if anyone else did this.

      I prefer it over the remake's CGI, personally. Not saying Tron Legacy was bad, but the electronic world in it looked too realistic, too "physical" in a sense. And yet, it is supposed to be essentially another dimension, and thus the simple, non-realistic CGI of the 1980's movie was giving it an otherworldly feeling that was perfect.

    These CLU attacks fill in the gap spoken about in Tron legacy. The scene where Flynn explains to Sam that there was a coup, where he was supposed to create the perfect system. I think once Flynn defeated the master program with TRON and CLU (his mirror), he was able to enter the grid and create said perfect system....after a while CLU rebelled against him after lusting for that administrator power. Just imagine the timeline from Flynn's POV, this is what he make Legacy from, an 80s aesthetic into the sleek 2010 version.

    I'll lay out some clarifications regarding CLU and Clu. The differences are simple. yet complex. Follow me and you'll understand. CLU, was Flynn's search engine. It was loaded with file names, checksums, hash traces, and the like, working to find the game source code that Flynn built for a variety of games that were poached from him. CLU got cooked by the MPC.
    Clu, was a monster of Flynn's making while on The Grid. This one was created using XCOPY on himself, inadvertently creating a entity that had no sense of self-history, but yet he contained Kevin's entire life history, right down to his First Memory but with no emotional context. Clu, essentially, had no soul, no machine to date can copy. He was continually bombarded with Flynn's memories and emotions, putting the entity on the brink of insanity. The order to create a perfect system, is still impossible. There will always be a snake in the garden, a weed in the yard.

    If this version of CLU wasn't killed, imagine what would happen if he somehow got to meet CLU 2 from TRON Legacy. I know that wouldn't be possible since Kevin can only copies stuff to the new grid he designed for Legacy. For example, he copied Tron to that grid, so he's not just the original. He's basically a clone of the original Tron. But the only way that an original program would be able to get one grid to another without being copied would be by coming to the real world with Kevin, like how Quorra comes to the real world with Sam.
    So if this version of CLU survived and went to the new grid with Kevin, imagine him meeting CLU 2. Of course, if CLU 1 did survive then Kevin wouldn't have created a new version of him. But if CLU 1 did meet CLU 2, I feel like this would be their interaction after CLU 1 finds out that CLU 2 wants to get rid of the ISOs...
    CLU 1: Don't do this. This is not what Flynn made you for.
    CLU 2: Not what he made me for? He created me to create the perfect system.
    CLU 1: This is not the way to do it! You can't create perfection by destroying everything!
    CLU 2: In order to build something, you need clear space. And I am making more space on the grid by getting rid of what is not needed.
    CLU 1: And you think the ISOs aren't needed?
    CLU 2: What good are they to us?
    CLU 1: Flynn wants to bring them to the real world! Cure disease, he said! He was going to change the world!
    CLU 2: And he promised we would change the world TOGETHER! He broke his promise!
    CLU 1: If you really wanted to do the right thing, you wouldn't want to derez programs and you wouldn't betray Flynn.
    CLU 2: I am doing this for us. And in order to get to the grid's maximum potential, we have to get rid of every single thing that is imperfect.
    CLU 1: Like you?
    (CLU 2 is now pissed. He walks up to CLU 1 slowly and gets close to his face.)
    CLU 2: Has it ever occurred to you why Flynn created me instead of just using you? Why made me to create the perfect system instead of asking you to do it? It's because he wanted that in my programing. For it to be what users call a "soul purpose". And what about you? He created you to hack the ENCOM computer system to search for proof that Dillinger stole Flynn's video games. And what happened when you tried searching for the proof? You were captured and sent to the Main Control Program. Flynn had to find the evidence himself in those memories. Now that Flynn found them, what good are you now? You are no longer needed to find that evidence. "Utility" in our name may mean being useful, but only I am useful now. You no longer have a purpose. And since you were caught back then, that makes me better than you. You're just a rough draft of what CLU is really meant to be. So, to sum up everything, you are imperfect too. And I have to make sure that this grid is perfect... by getting rid of everything that is imperfect.
    (CLU 2 uses his disk to derez CLU 1. CLU 1 screams in pain as this happens.)

      I always got the impression that the second half of the movie was perceived almost instaneously from the real world - Alan wasn't just sitting there at his terminal for hours while TRON played the games, broke out of 'jail,' rode across half the grid, dodged an army of tanks, climbed the IO tower, and finally interfaced to download the code that would end the MCP. Or, I could have been wrong all these years and the correct answer is just simple movie magic.

    • @Abu_Brandino

      The chatting is more like how the Program interprets the lines of commands inputted into the computer by the user. Just gives us something to listen to. As for the MCP talking to Dillinger, the words are there on the large screen, and on the computer terminal when he talks to Flynn. The voice dialogue is there so we as the audience don't get bored reading text on a computer.

    @Clymax01 when you watch tron legacy ,Clu 2 is a completely new version of Clu.The only relationship between Clu 1 and Clu 2 is that they have the same name and user: Kevin Flynn

    For all of you who keep saying Clu crashed, THE TANK CRASHED NOT CLU!!! Clu is IN a stolen tank program. He didn't crash. The tank crashed.

    note: clu in legacy is specifically called "Clu 2.0". he's a second Clu, successor to this one and far stronger because he was created by kevin flynn in-world, not from a normal keyboard programming method.

    I wish they kept the same suit concept for Legacy... I mean circuit-like, lighten by emotions, brighter colors... as well for the backgrounds more interaction with different color/moving circuits as this one... oh well... hail the 80s and their funky fun colors! haha
