Yeah there are some pretty active Tron groups out there. So overall I think it's good. But I wish more programs would post here again. Wow it's been years

I've seen this happen on another forum I use to go to.

It was for a popular crime show on TV at the time, and given the HUGE popularity of the show when it was on there was a LOT of activity on there, almost on a daily basis. 
In fact, it was the VERY FIRST forum I ever signed up to, way back in 2009!

But here's the thing-after about 5 seasons that show eventually came to end, and it was most definitely FINALE.

Done.Finished.Over.Forever.

What happened?

Within months of the end of that show nearly all activity on that forum almost completely DRIED-UP!

Towards the end the activity on that forum was reduced to a snails-crawl, because the members soon realized that without any new import into the franchise in any form there would be nothing new to talk about in the franchise. 
Or, to put it another way, when one Season ended (and when it was announced that the next Season would be produced but before production had actually begun) activity slowed down tremendously, and at the time some members were asking why things were slowing down?

Then one member-I can't remember their name/ID-hit the nail on the head:

The reason why there was such (has they called it) "a lull" between Seasons is because everyone on the forum was just sitting quietly and waiting for the 'Next Big Thing' to happen in the franchise, and what will be released (TV show/film/merchandise) next.

Looking at it, I think that's exactly what's happened here. Tron fans and forum members are sitting quietly (making the occasional comment) just waiting to see what's going to happen next.

And I'm sorry but I think it's going to be a LONG time before we hear anything meaningful about this franchise. Tron 3 seems to have been indefinitely shelved by the looks of it, Disney have (so far) shown particularly no interest in reviving Uprising and I can see almost no new major merchandising releases recently.

I'm sorry to say this, but by the looks of I think this is has good as it gets for the franchise for now. Legacy was released 7 years ago now, Uprising 5 years ago and I think that in terms of interest in the general public the franchise is very much on a declining slope now, and has been for years.

I don't think this franchise will disappear entirely from the Sci-fi community, it will always be around in one form or another and I think it's up to us to keep it going for as long as possible on forums like this.

I used to be one of the top posters here along with one or two other programs in the early days. until real lif happen to be the main concern to getting things dones. Since then and some things have calm down I am back here to post once again. Being one of the founding fathers of posting in this board. LOL. I am back for a little while Even Traahn knows that as well. Right Traahn.

I am back for a little while Even Traahn knows that as well. Right Traahn. You're still one of the top posters. #4 in fact, at a staggering 4,427 posts! My life has been busy, too, so I don't come around here as often. I think pre- and post-Tron Legacy launch discussions fractured the community a bit, but maybe a Tron 3 will someday unite the Users. Real life happens... and it happened to me, too. Been quite busy the past while and will continue to be. So unless or until a Tron 3 is officially said to be in the works, including some substantive teasers, I will continue to lurk in the shadows, for the most part; occasionally popping in to see how folks on the Grid are doing. "Video Warriors, look! The I/O towers! Every one of them is lighting up!"

Yeah I hear ya all too well on that.I will still post from time to time. Been working on some other things through youtube as another outlet for my hobbies here. Like playing pool in the billiard halls. Trying to get a couple of my friends to join in for a couple of rounds of fun. tape it at the same time. And go through the routines of editing it and some other tech stuff. (Which reminds me I could do a simple repair of that outdated vcr that I have here. LOL Looking and sonding like Doc from ack to the future talking out loud ) Should be interesting to post something like that even though they are no longer in production and cassette tapes are already hard to find. The fun of being in tech as always.
