ENCOM

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the real-world software company Encom, please see Encom Technology.

ENCOM is the name of a fictional software production company from the movie Tron. The main character, Kevin Flynn was an employee there until Ed Dillinger stole much of his work. After Dillinger is promoted in Encom thanks to the stolen work, he fires Flynn, who then opens a video arcade. This company was responsible for the creation of the titular character, Tron, and the two villains, Sark and the Master Control Program.

[edit] Kingdom Hearts II

In the video game Kingdom Hearts II, Ansem The Wise copied Tron, Sark, and the MCP off of ENCOM's computers into the Hollow Bastion computer mainframe. Nothing more is mentioned of it.

[edit] Gorillaz

The music video of Feel Good Inc. by the virtual band Gorillaz features Russel, the drummer and one of the four members of the group, wearing a baseball cap that has Encom scrawled across the front. The cap was created in CGI from a real cap that Jamie Hewlet, the Gorillaz artist owns.
