Yeah, take that, Clu...FLYNN'S bits are POINTY!

When I saw CLU's orbs the first thing that came into my mind was "playing with his balls...."
Then nearly every male viewer in the theater snickered! No kidding!!!!
Y'know...that thought actually never occurred to me WHILE WATCHING THE MOVIE...

I'll say what I always say: anybody who's too young to see a bit of swearing or a few dirty words is too young to be on a message board (13 is the usual age message boards allow users). Also too young to pick up on the innuendo here.

I hate myself for thinking these terrible thoughts whilst watching the movie. Oh gosh... I'm not alone it seems.

What's a battering ram to some is a logic probe to others.

The orbs were a sign of Clu's virility and fertility, and they changed the direction of gravity in the game arena. Nothing more...abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I don't like this statement as a rule.

Sometimes (and by sometimes I mean often) close critical analysis brings out stuff that you'd never otherwise think of. Isomorphism as (not) explained in the movie is kind of interesting, but if you read further into the philosophical, biological, and computer science roots of the concept you can pull a lot more meaning from the film.

Design choices in films are not made arbitrarily. Often there's a meaning that can be read out of it if you choose to look beneath the surface.

That said, control gravity, draw a parallel between Flynn and Clu (thanks to ShadowDragon1 for observing that Flynn's were actually Bits and not the meditation balls), show the philosophical roots of the flick, and look interesting are pretty much the only things worth reading out of them. Whether they're tied to Rinzler or not is kind of immaterial, IMO.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Actually, I don't think it is. I think it's a pretty damn big deal if Clu can control Rinzler, don't you?
