That's my point, though -- your suppositions are all well and good, and may even have been what the scriptwriter(s) had in mind ... but it isn't supported by anything stated in the movie via dialogue. Why not?

It'd have been VERY simple for CLU to simply include his "how we're going to take over" plans during his rather long-winded speech to his army of re-programs. We got the WHY, but not the how.

There was a reason why the plan wasn't stated. However, if he did explain the how we would have gotten another trope. Unfortunately, in the end it all comes down to stereotypical gloating.


Of course, as mentioned in a prior post, and echoed by writing teacher I had in my life, it's better to "Show not tell," which is what they did in the film... except often with voice over narration by Flynn.

I guess I missed the part where they showed me that there was any thought put into KLU's plan to conquer the real world by ... um ... somehow ... doing ... something ... bad?

So yeah, I was real scared by the "big" "bad" "evil" "guy". Hey, he doesn't actually qualify for any of the 4 letters in BBEG ... do we have a proper term? ;)
