I live a somewhat "off grid" lifestyle...no cable cable, satellite TV or internet connection at home. As a result, I have only seen the T:U episodes Beck's Beginning and that one where Beck looses his disc. Yeah, I know you know the name of that one, but I don't care what the name of that episode is and that's not why I'm writing this, so please, just.....don't. .

The jist of this is that I am going to need to get a hard copy of the series, preferably on Blu-Ray but I'll of course take it on DVD if I can get it. Is Disney going to publish it as such? Do they.....do that anymore? I am afraid I have no other way to see all the episodes in the series, short of waiting to visit some relatives in a few months who have a fast internet connection which I can hog for hours on end to DL all the episodes from iTunes, and even then I am not too sure I could watch them the way they deserve to be watched, which is on my 1080p TV.

Answers, anyone? I'll at least rent it from Netflix sooner or later if they ever have it to rent as such. They don't as of yet, I checked.

Unfortunately it seems like nigh all of the Tron fandom feels that Tron: Uprising will be the next Firefly...

But, be damned if I'm going to go along with it without throwing a few punches.

Now, as for the DVD/Blu-Ray release, I am waiting on that, myself. I do believe Uprising is an excellent work, and I intend to buy multiple copies, myself. I wanted to donate them to the local library, Drop-in center, Big Brothers/Big Sisters division, Health Sciences Centre, etc.. Personally, the charitable gesture alone is worthwhile enough for me, and spreading word of the action is what I hope might inspire others.

I see it as an act of good, a personal antidote against he cynicism we've come across with the (in my view, unfair) treatment which Uprising has gotten from whatever (damned) Disney executive doomed the series.

I only wish there were.

Is it possible to drum up an email campaign and start asking for that? Get some voices on Twitter, Tumblr, Youtube, anywhere - and start getting people to begin asking en-masse for those treasured DVDs.

Much my thought, unfortunately.

I'd easily and gladly support any given release of Uprising officially on DVD or Blu-Ray, hands-down.

To that end, I was wondering about the legality of donating copies to local areas (YMCA, drop-in centers, etc.).

Uprising is like that Dizzee Rascal song, "There ain't no rerun, no dvd, no second season"

As far as torrents, I'm glad for whoever they work for, but I've always found them useless. They either don't work or I don't have the three days it would take to DL anything worthwhile.

Torent DL time depends on your internet speed and seeders.

Some things DL for me in a matter of mins, and some in a matter of days (ie: Complete collection of a show may take days.) have even had some things take a few weeks.

I use UTorent to do the download, and get my torents from kickasstorents.com

hmm, uTorrent doesn't seem to be working.
Has anyone had luck with the kickasstorents link?

I'll try vuze and see how that works

I have all 19 episodes from kickasstorents.com

What problems are you having with UTorent?

Java Wrote:I think it may just be my internet connection. It is a particularly large torrent. So, my signal probably just can't handle all that data. It took ten minutes to show any download progress.

Ah. Yeah. Individual DL's work best. When I do a series, I break them up by season. Works faster.

Good Luck.

P.S. Uprising would make a nice animate movie if edited all together.
