Corrected entry: After Flynn Sr.'s identity disc is stolen off his back AND then shown in Clu's transport (he has not stolen it back yet), we get a scene lasting several minutes between Flynn Sr., his son, and Quorra, where Flynn Sr. is standing with his back to the camera and his disc - which is supposed to be gone - is still there. When Quorra's disc is off, it is missing, and we do not hear anything about Flynn Sr. being able to spawn a new disc.

Correction: That's not Flynn's disc: it's Quorra's. Transporting it that way leaves both his hands free.

Corrected entry: Flynn's arcade had been locked up since the disappearance of Flynn in 1989. When Sam was walking through the arcade, one of the arcade machine was Mortal Kombat, which didn't come out until 1992.

Correction: Flynn disappeared in 1989 but they never say that the arcade closed down immediately after his disappearence. In the first movie it's explained that he took on the responsibility of running the arcade after he was forced out of ENCOM. At the end of TRON he's back in control of ENCOM and obviously had someone else running the arcade.

Continuity mistake: At the end when Flynn is asking Sam to go, Quorra has Flynn's disc on her back. In the next shot she says "Sam, it's what he wants" and the disc is no longer on her back. And then in the next shot it's on her back again before she gives it to him.

Trivia: While fleeing CLU's ship in their stolen Light Jet with Quorra as the pilot, Flynn tells her controlling the jet is "all in the wrist." Flynn said the same in the original Tron when he was asked about his gaming skills.

Question: Tron fought for the users, so how was Clu able to make Tron serve him?

Answer: Because Clu was given all the authority of the most important user, the creator, Flynn.

But what did Clu do to Tron to make him serve him? Tron fought for the Users so it would make no sense for him to suddenly side with Clu who wanted to create the perfect system and help him in annihilating the ISO's.

When Clu and co. attacked Tron and Flynn, Flynn's disc must have been damaged, removing his personality in a way similar to amnesia. This allowed Clu, now master of the system, to gain control of Tron's skills. Later, when Prinzler saw Flynn, he remembered him and what he did, and regained his original purpose.

The answer was in the movie itself. During a conversion between Sam and his father it is mentioned that Clu had the ability to repurpose programs. This is the action that allowed him to "build" the perfect system. The isos were manifested without creation from anything and had genuine freedom that Clu couldn't repurpose. This is why he destroyed them because it threatened his strategy to create perfection. Answer: Clu repurposed Tron to serve him and do his bidding. That simple.
