Evangelion

I've been watching anime since longer than I can remember. Although between 2000 and 2006, I was heavily wrapped up in the MMORPG Everquest so 90% of all of my time awake was spent playing this game, I still managed to sneak in a few series while I was doing other things. It wasn't until 2004 that I finally got around to watching Evangelion. I, in part, avoided it because of the tremendous amount of hype I'd encounter when browsing for recommendations or looking into my next purchase. When I finally gave in and bought a used copy of the Perfect Collection, I was blown away by the layers upon layers of themes and a story that is told in a sparse way but was deceivingly complex. It was the first show that I watched that prompted me to actually read, and later discuss, about in online forums. And that's where it all began.

firefox: "A misconfiguration on the server caused a hiccup. Check the server logs, fix the problem, then try again." I get this error when I try to access the wiki_family directory to set up the 2nd wiki. I can't load the installation file. Any ideas? Bouncingmolar 08:12, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

   I tried copying the index.php from main_wiki/config to the wiki_family/config and i didn't receive the error when I loaded wiki_family/config/index.php . I could then move localsettings.php into the wiki_family directory, however i get the 500 server error again when trying to load wiki_family after that. My server doesn't like interlinking maybe?

   I also contacted support on my host: "[Thu Jun 14 13:30:12 2007] [error] [client] Premature end of script headers:/public_html/wiki_family/index.php. I checked your symlinks and folder permissions. All looked according to the instructions (folders already 755, etc.). I even checked the dB tables to ensure there were no table prefixes. I don't know what the problem is, sorry." Bouncingmolar 09:07, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
       This seems to be a problem with your installation. There is not enough information available to postulate a possible culprit. I would suggest attempting to install two separate MediaWiki installations and not symlink the two. you will have to duplicate all changes (extensions, skins, etc.) The interlinking portion will work regardless if you symlink or not. And technically if both systems can access the same database server the two need not be on the same machine let alone same account. Hope this helps. Suki 20:00, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
   Damn ... Ok I will try that. what info would you need to find out the problem anyway?
       I set the first wiki up and changed config permissions to 755 and moved the localsettings.php

On July 21, 2009, several movie-related websites posted they had received via mail a pair of "Flynn's Arcade" tokens along with a flash drive. Its content was an animated GIF that showed CSS code lines. Four of them were put together and part of the code was cracked, revealing the URL to Flynnlives.com,[27] a fiction site maintained by activists who believe Kevin Flynn is alive, even though he's been missing since 1989. Clicking on a tiny spider in the lower section of the main page led to a countdown clock that hit zero on July 23, 2009, 9:30pm PDT. Within the Terms of Use Section, an address was found. It lies in San Diego, California, USA near the city's convention center where the Comic Con 2009 took place and some footage and information on the sequel was released. Flynn's Arcade was re-opened at that location, with several Space Paranoids arcade machines and a variety of '80s video games. A full-size light cycle from the new movie was on display.[28]

The same light cycle seen in San Diego was also shown at Fan Expo 2009 on August 20 in Toronto. The setup at Fan Expo had the previously shown drawings in "Flynn's Arcade" surrounding the light cycle. There were also multiple screens in the booth playing the "teaser trailer"/"Graphics Test" in a continuous loop.

A second viral site, homeoftron.com, has been found. It portrays some of the history of Flynn's Arcade as well as a fan memoir section.[29]

On December 11, 2009 a new poster was revealed, along with the first still from the movie.[30]

On February 18, 2010 a new viral site "flynnlives.com/zerohour" was discovered, containing a binary clock counting down to the date February 25. On February 25, meeting places in 25 cities were revealed whereby fans could meet a "contact" at a specified location. The site revealed a scavenger hunt in 5 cities that led to an unknown event at 5 IMAX theatres around the world on Saturday, February 27. Another viral site, "pitcell.com", accessed by 'flipping' the puzzle pieces on flynnlives.com, lists the Imax events in New York, London, Los Angeles, Toronto and Sydney.

The first theatrical trailer was released on March 5, 2010 with Alice in Wonderland, and featured scenes with Sam, Kevin and the Tron world.[31]

On January 13, 2005, Variety reported that Disney had hired Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal to write a sequel to Tron.

At the 2008 San Diego Comic-Con,[3] a preliminary teaser trailer (labeled as TR2N and directed by Joseph Kosinski) was shown as a surprise to convention guests. It depicted a yellow Program engaged in a light cycle battle with a blue Program, and it prominently featured Jeff Bridges reprising his role as an aged Kevin Flynn (from the first film). At the end of the trailer, the yellow Program showed his face, which appeared identical to Flynn's earlier program Clu (resembling the younger Flynn in Tron).

While the trailer did not confirm that a Tron sequel was in production, it showed that Disney was serious about a sequel. In an interview with Sci-Fi Wire, Bridges revealed that the test footage was not likely to appear in the finished movie.[13]

On July 23, 2009, Disney revealed the current title at their Comic-Con 3D panel. Jeff Bridges explains that the title is in reference to the story’s theme: “It’s basically a story about a son’s search for his father." They also showed a trailer similar to the one shown at Comic-Con 2008, with updated visuals. At the time, the film just wrapped production and they had a year of post production ahead of them. Because none of the footage from inside the computer world was finished, they premiered concept images from the production. Art included the recognizer, which has been updated from the original film. Concept photos were also shown of Disc Wars, which has also been revised from the original film into a 16-game tournament. The arena is set-up so that the game court organically changes, and all 16 games are going on at the same time. The boards also combine in real time until the last two Disc warriors are connected.

Light cycles make a return,[14][15] with new designs by Daniel Simon.[16] According to the press conference at Comic-Con 2009, a new vehicle appears called a "Light Runner," a two-seat version of the light cycle. It is said to be very fast, and has the unique ability to go off the grid on its own power. We also get a glimpse at Kevin Flynn's own cycle, a "Second Generation Light Cycle" designed in 1989 by Flynn and “rumor has it it's still the fastest thing on the grid.” It incorporates some of the look of both films.[17] On July 21, 2009, several movie-related websites posted they had received via mail a pair of "Flynn's Arcade" tokens along with a flash drive.
