Well, I wasn't really referring to "flying at your face" when I was
talking about 3D. I was more referring to depth. To the *inside* of the
screen, not the outside.

Yup. I read somewhere that they couldn't use the Sun/Oracle name because
of a trademark issue.

I dunno - I think they did a fine job of giving the depth of the city and
such. I think they could have done more non-gimicky 3D effects, as I said,
but I found the 3D quite fine in the movie.
Of course, given that it's the traditional Tron black-with-straight-lines
sort of environment, there's not a whole lot the depth really added.
