Anonymous: <p>One aspect of the Tron series that annoys me is, starting in Legacy and continuing on all the way to Ares, is the franchises insistence on treating Kevin Flynn as if he's a combination of Nikola Tesla and Shigeru Miyamoto. He's responsible for every major technical breakthrough in the setting. They even retcon him into being the founder of ENCOM! </p>

my focus is still very lasered on 1982, but I do think that when you take the whole series into account, Tron feels like it’s largely about 1. becoming what you hated most, and 2. how the videogame/computer industry is all about selfish techbros taking credit for other people’s work
