Disney’s new TRON serial doesn’t kick off until next month, but the entire first episode has gone live to hold us over until then.
The plot is not quite revolutionary, in fact I couldn’t stop thinking about Batman Beyond through the entire exposition, but it doesn’t need to be. The show has style to spare.
The animation is beautiful, the characters well-developed – especially for a half-hour pilot – and the voice performances are beyond expectation.
