Yup! X-Files may indeed by gracing Blu-Ray soon

Enterprise S1 should be mid-late March. And the bonus features are looking great... TNG S3 too!

T'will be interesting to see how FHE handle the XF BDs - remaster or upscale? Please let it be the former!

ENT - presumably it's just a case of re-scanning at 1080p, given that the HDTV versions would have been 1080i//720p?

Xfiles are coming to BD too?
OMG, that will be a very expensive 2013. Star Trek TNG and E, Xfiles, the James Dean Movies...
Guess I've got to speak to my boss to get a raise...

So is X-Files another situation where they shot on film and edited in video? Those reruns usually look about as crappy as the TNG ones, so I assume it must have been.

CBS is probably going to just pull the D5 HD master tapes off the shelf and encode directly to Blu-ray from those. Unlike the other shows, ENT was finished in 1080/24p HD from the get go.

But, as has been mentioned many times before, the VFX plates in the early seasons were composited at D1 resolution (480i), then upconverted back to 1080p (after removing the 3:2 pulldown, of course) during the online edit.

I am curious to see if CBS will airbrush Counselor Troi when she is onboard the Sheliak ship. Her appearance in that one scene pushes the envelope on a family show.

It was probably just a little bit nipply on set...

Again CBS-D shows, what "staying true to the original" means.

davejames · December 24 2012, 07:25 PM

Not really a great comparison, as the HD in that clip doesn't really look like HD.

Forgive me if this has been asked, but are they going to do blu-rayed DS9, VOY & ENT sets concurrently with the TNG BD releases?

As opposed to waiting till one whole series is complete before starting the next.

Enterprise will be released concurrently with TNG.

DS9 and Voyager have not been officially green-lit by CBS yet.

Although it will be kind of weird at this point if they don't, since they're giving Enterprise a proper full HD release and with TNG doing so well so far.

I really really hope that DS9, at least, gets a good remastering. It really does deserve it and as FX heavy as that show was in particular, I would argue it needs one as much as more than TNG.

OneBuckFilms · December 28 2012, 05:54 PM

If sales figures for Enterprise get close enough to the TNG season set figures, you can bet your bottom dollar that CBS-D will work on restoring DS9 and Voyager for Blu-Ray.

I have yet to see my TNG seasons 1 and 2 blus, as I haven't attained my HDTV and Blu-Ray system, but I am absolutely buying into these sets.

The stills and side-by-sides, plus the details of the staggering work that is going into the project, have my jaw permanently dragging on the floor.

The fact that this is happening at all is a miracle, and if they get to DS9 and Voyager, it'll be glorious.
