We’re trying to rewatch Invasion now that it’s concluded (or cancelled). First season is heavy going, lots of parallel plots that only slowly intertwine if at all, and not necessarily so much happening in every episode.

Next will be a For all mankind rewatch to be fully prepped for the upcoming season 5. Let’s see if we can time it so we can binge the new episodes without a week’s wait in between…

    Your comment reminded me that I still hadn’t seen Tron: Ares, so I rectified that tonight.

    It’s…perfectly fine? It looked cool, it sounded cool, it had a basic plot that worked well enough. That meets the threshold of Tron expectations for me.

      I’m glad you finally watched it! Like Legacy, it was a treat to see at the theater for the music alone. I think it was a perfectly serviceable Tron movie and was a natural continuation from where Legacy left off.

        It was a bizarre choice to exclude Sam and Quorra, but all things considered they did it pretty well. Shame we will likely never get the continuation that they laid the groundwork for.

          Yeah, I was stoked to see that picture that Ares was carrying around at the end of the movie, but then was sad when we all saw how the movie performed. We will get a continuation right after Tron: Uprising season 2… 🙃
