Tron: Uprising - Beck's Beginning



DisneyXD decided to release the first episode for Tron: Uprising to get people excited, and I have to say I'm pretty damn impressed, especially by how much the series directly ties into the last two movies and expands on the universe. The idea of showing off the general life of folks in Argon, a city located in the Grid shows off a side of Kevin Flynn's creation we never had a chance to see before. I honestly can't wait till June 7, as the quality of the episode ended up exceeding my expectations.

Disney released an official synopsis to accompany the 30 minute premiere:

Beck is a young mechanic living in Argon City, a growing metropolis in a far off corner of the grid that has just been occupied by General Tesler, a henchman of the notorious Clu. After his best friend Bodhi is ruthlessly derezzed by Clu's army, Beck seeks justice for his lost friend and launches a crusade against the regime. His rebellion captures the attention of Tron, the greatest warrior The Grid has ever known, who sees the potential in Beck and trains him to be his successor. Labeled with the moniker of The Renegade, Beck sparks a revolution to fight for the freedom of The Grid.
