The TRON first script draft
Last year, the wonderful @greetingsprogram1982 managed to acquire a copy of the first script draft for the film TRON, scanned it, an uploaded the pages as jpgs here on Tumblr. I have now taken the liberty to convert these scanned pages into a pdf file and upload it to The Internet Archive, in order to hopefully preserve this important historical artifact a little better (many of you are probably aware that Tumblr isn’t exactly the ideal place to archive things long-term for various reasons):
I can highly recommend that any fan of the original TRON movie check out this script draft, if you haven’t already done so. It’s a fascinating read, containing scenes and concepts that didn’t make it into the final film (and missing some parts that would be added later), and versions of the movie characters who are very different from what they eventually ended up being.
Again, huge thanks to @greetingsprogram1982 for scanning the script in the first place!
This is awesome and I love it
also: thank you, Internet Archive, for inspiring my new header pic
(considering how many of my ideas come from a rogue Pattern Recognition subroutine that obsessively finds connections between any and all things stored in my extremely random brain repository, often only stored there because of some weird connection they have to something else …well, I think the Archive Recognizer needs to be my new mascot or something.)
