    I'm quickly getting bored with Uprising, it's just the same thing every episode, 2 dimensional bad guy tries to catch Beck and fails... it doesn't feel like a full world with well developed characters.

    I was lukewarm on Uprising at first, but it's gotten more engaging over time. It's definitely not the same thing every episode.

    They finally did something with Beck's boss that actually made him a little more interesting.

    I thought that Legacy was pretty good.It could've been better but it was solid entertainment. Looking forward to Tron 3.

    Is it confirmed that Daft Punk is doing the soundtrack for T3?

    So simple really for Flynn to come back. I always assumed he made a backup copy of himself in case of emergency. The backup would only be a program, not a user. So, no user powers. But, it would have all of Flynn's knowledge. If Clu ever grabbed him, how would he be able to continue to guide Quorra, right? I fully expect something like this.

    This universe is poised for some good universe building after Legacy and the cartoon.

    If this is handled well we could see even more Tron down the road. *crosses fingers*

    So it will definitely not be 'END OF LINE'.

    Amazing how far its come. When I saw the DVD of Tron in 2002 i didnt think the Tron 2.0 concepts would see fruition, now it's a franchise...wow.

    Garrett Hedlund is coming back? Is that a threat? ;)

    I'm sorry but the guy has no charisma and shows no emotion whatsoever. He's got a good-leading man look but brings nothing else to the table. I enjoyed Tron Legacy a great deal but it would have been better if it wasn't saddled with some dead weight like Garrett Hedlund.

    I enjoy Tron Uprising myself.

    I, too, fell behind on Tron: Legacy due its lengthy break but I just finished catching up and I'm still thoroughly enjoying it. I loved the two-parter with John Glover's Dyson and his relationship with Tron, and I hope the character returns in future episodes. It's a pity Jeff Bridges doesn't voice Clu or Flynn but I guess he's too busy and/or too expensive. I also liked the new character development for Able, although I'm still wondering how he knew Beck was the Renegade. It's a shame that Disney isn't promoting the series at all and placing it at a terrible time. If this inevitably leads to the show's cancellation, I hope that it gets a proper conclusion including Tron's eventual capture and re-purposing as Rinzler.

    In an interview with the director (posted here?) he says that Daft Punk will be his first call to do the score, and that they also have a lot of unused material from Tron Legacy, but that it's too far away to be certain they can do it.

    John Glover returned in the episode that aired last night at midnight. It was a pretty good episode, it didn't have the annoying sidekicks or the cartoony villains in it. It was also Tron heavy. Wish the show was more like that.

    I totally agree that the episodes without Zed and Mara tend to be better than the rest of the show, but Tesler is pure gold as a villain, especially now that they've gone into his head a bit more.

    I don't mind Mara much but Zed's a a total waste of space.

    Count me in. I like the characters, I like the world, I'm willing to be patient with less than stellar writing though of course I hope that's up to par this time, too. They need Quorra back.

    ^ The Quorra episode is the only one I haven't seen, and it's not showing up in my On-Demand. Grr! :mad: (If you're referring to having Quorra back in the movie, I do agree with that -- although after the end of Legacy, I don't see how she wouldn't be back)

    Not back in the Grid, maybe, but I get the impression that the next movie will focus heavily on her adjustment to the physical world.
