Tron 2 Viral: FlynnLives and HomeOfTron Nick Butler, July 21, 2009August 17, 2010 If you haven’t heard yet, earlier today a series of packages were sent to multiple movie following blogs like FirstShowing.net. Included was a token and a disk which contained an image, and each blog received a different image. Check that out by reading our previous post.The code was cracked and it’s now known that the images contained a hidden message “Flynn Lives”. This led to the finding of FlynnLives.com.Some people believed he died. We don’t. We know that Kevin Flynn Lives.We’re not crazy, we’re not obssessed [sic], we’re not lunatics. We simply have followed the facts wherever they lead. And the facts tell us that Kevin Flynn Lives.I will be going through this website and posting my findings in a FlynnLives.com Viral Breakdown later today or tomorrow.In addition to FlynnLives.com, HomeOfTron.com was found via the tokens received by film blogs.

Of course, as with any ARG we’re probably missing something at this point. We’ll keep you posted.Thanks to FirstShowing.net for the heads up. Viral Marketing Tron Legacy
