Tron: Uprising

[ravn0s]

did scar part 2 air?

 

[Kane52630]

It did and it was amazing. The show is getting better and better...and it looks like we might see more of CLU.

 

[ravn0s]

yeah was a great episode. the fight scene was really cool and i loved dyson's yo-yo disc.

 

[Lencho01]

Very awesome episode.

 

[ravn0s]

did episode 11 air? it's not on itunes.

edit: did some googling. looks like it's on a break

apparently it's not getting very good ratings so they're going to probably reschedule it.

 

[Liam_H]

It really doesn't seem like this show will continue past its current season.

 

[r0derix]

A shame that this and Motorcity, two quality action cartoons, are on Disney XD of all channels.

 

[Kane52630]

Uprising also have one of the best cartoon theme songs since BTAS for me.

I can see Disney not caring about it as much now that they have Marvel and Star Wars.

It really doesn't seem like this show will continue past its current season.

which is sad because it's a fantastic show.

The background designs on this show are actually pretty gorgeous.

 

[ravn0s]

yep it's done for

charlie bean ‏@bean_charlie News for fans of #TRONUPRISING. The show will return to XD at a new time: Sundays at Midnight (technically Mon morn) starting Dec. 2nd.

 

[Donut]

I guess Disney wants nothing but MARVEL & Star Wars cartoons on their channels now

 

[Kane52630]

yikes.

So I'm guessing there's going to be only 8 more episodes left?

 

[Siby]

I really hope this show comes back. Everything about it is so amazing. The animation is the better than anything I've ever seen. I love all the shiny reflective surfaces, the vehicle designs, and the background designs. I even love the character designs now, at first I thought they looked odd with the really long legs but it feels fine now.

From Tron-Sector:

When the TRON: UPRISING animated series debuted this past May -- it struck me as something that transcended being "just" a television series: the production value was striking -- on the quality level of feature animation, and unlike anything that was otherwise commonplace amongst much TV animated series fare. Since then, UPRISING has consistently effused fantastic, imaginative direction and spectacular, highly stylized art design and music -- complemented by a sci-fi/fantasy "dream cast" including Elijah Wood, Bruce Boxleitner, Lance Henriksen, Mandy Moore, Paul Rebuens, and Tricia Helfer -- with clever, entertaining sci-fi stories delving further into the grand mythology of the World of TRON.

Also impressively, the series immediately cemented its own definitive place between both iconic TRON movies with its strong, signature elements -- making it stand head to head with each film.

However, since its debut, the series has had to contend with long breaks between certain episodes, making it difficult for many viewers to track and follow the series with any type of regularity. As well, its time slot has changed twice -- and is now being changed again to Sundays at midnights, Pacific time -- starting on December 2nd. Thankfully we live in the day and age of being able to set our DVRs (digital video recorders) to easily record TV programming!

Many on the net have also voiced that they do not get the Disney X D channel upon which it airs -- and the series actually found higher ratings and a wider audience when it was "shared" briefly on the Disney Channel for a few episodes. Another excellent way to view the show is via iTunes, Xbox Live Marketplace, and the Playstation Store -- episodes are added there within hours of their broadcast on Disney X D -- and come with full Hi-Definition and Standard Definition viewing options.

I recently had the privilege of viewing an upcoming episode -- "The Stranger" -- which is set for broadcast on December 9th (one week after the series resumes episodes on December 2nd). Just when it seemed the series couldn't possibly get any better, the envelope has been pushed even further with stunning artistry and inventiveness -- and just flat out coolness. I won't go into any spoiler territory here -- but rest assured, it's epic!

There are nine more episodes in this season of TRON: UPRISING -- and to quote Castor from TRON: LEGACY -- "This is going to be quite the ride!".

 

[Lencho01]

Things probably could've been more different if Legacy was more like Uprising.

Sundays at 12am?!?! That is the dumbest scheduling move of all time!!!

EDIT: Oh, 12:00am Pacific Time. Which is nine o'clock EST. Still not a great time.

I'm not sure what kind of clock you're using....

Tron Uprising Update

here's a bunch of designs i did for Tron Uprising. one of the most amazing shows on TV and i am so proud to have contributed to its awesomeness.

Tron:Uprising concept art:

I had the pleasure of working on TRON:Uprising from 2011-2012. The show has been airing this year and has a few episodes left to go. The experience was invaluable and a time filled with creative memories I'll remember forever. Thanks to Charlie Bean and Albeto Mielgo for the awesome experience. I was mainly responsible for Vehicle Design working along with Daniel Simon and Vaughan Ling. Whenever there was down-time, I moved on to do environments for the show. It was a nice blend, and I was always on my toes.

 

[Liam_H]

So is this ending cause those quotes make it seem like it is, especially the latter.

^very awesome to hear.

I just saw the last epiosde, It wasn't as good as the Scars two parter but it was pretty good near the end. I hope they bring in CLU more because he was pretty much absent in this one.
