Continuity mistake: Tron sends his memory disk to talk to Alan. After Tron communicates with his user Alan1, Alan sends him back the disk with new data on it to destroy the MCP. When Tron receives the disk it is like a Frisbee, solid on the top and hollow on the bottom. When he receives the disk the hollow part is on the bottom. He holds the disk in front of him and starts talking about "the key to the new order". The shot changes and the disk has been reversed, hollow side toward him and solid side away from him. He did not have time to rotate the disk. (01:08:10)
Tron (1982)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Steven Lisberger
Starring: Jeff Bridges, David Warner, Bruce Boxleitner, Cindy Morgan
Flynn (Bridges), Yori (Morgan) and Tron (Boxleitner) all work together to fight the MCP. Tron and Sark (Warner) duel it out, until Tron kills Sark. The MCP gives Sark more power, and he becomes larger and stronger. Flynn dives in the MCP Beam and distracts him, and then Tron throws his disc into the beam and destroys the MCP. The computer world turns back to normal and Flynn returns to the real world. Dillinger sits at his office and finds that the MCP has been destroyed and Flynn has found the evidence that he created the string of Space Paranoid Games. Flynn becomes the new boss of ENCOM.

Sark: There's nothing special about you. You're just an ordinary program.
Kevin Flynn: So are you, one that should have been erased.
Trivia: Director Steven Lisberger had several arcade games scattered all around the sets. The cast and crew often had to be called away from them to return to shooting, particularly Jeff Bridges, who would often claim he was "preparing for the next scene" in order to keep playing a bit longer.
