Tron film - Trivia

Actors Bruce Boxleitner (Alan Bradley/Tron) and Peter Jurasik (Crom) would later team up again in the TV series Babylon 5. While their Tron characters never met, on B5 they had many scenes together (Boxleitner as John Sheridan, and Jurasik as Londo Mollari).

In the computer world, all programs wear uniforms with colored circuit lines on them. The original concept was to have the 'evil' programs (those loyal to Sark and the MCP) with blue circuit lines, and good programs would have yellow. At some point this was changed to blue for good programs and red for evil ones. Some of the original coloring remains, mostly in tank programs (Clu, who drives a tank, has yellow circuit lines on his uniform, and all of Sark's tank commanders have blue).

The name Clu is likely derivative of the CLU programming language.

Mickey Mouse makes an appearance in the movie. During the solar sailer sequence about 70 minutes into the movie, Mickey's head is plainly visible on the plain over which they are flying. (Ref: http://www.eeggs.com/items/2351.html)
