Season THREE OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread - Page 6

tomalak301 · January 4 2013, 06:05 PM

Yesterday I was searching around trying to find out more about Season 3, and see if a release date was out, and found an interview with Roger Ley Jr. on startrek.com. One thing that I found out was they are going to do a tribute to Michael Piller on the special features. That is cool. He really was the guy who turned TNG around and made Season 3 what it was. Still wish we knew a release date though.

I could be wrong, but I think I read somewhere (maybe on TheDigitalBits or something) that they are shooting for April.

Don't quote me on that though.

That's what trekcore has said as well. I'm actually looking for when the series will be available for pre-order, since last week I got a giftcard from Amazon and kind of want to use it. I guess it doesn't matter too much since I'm using it for TNG, but I would have thought a date for pre-orders would be coming soon.

It would have to be April at the latest if they wanted to release 3 seasons in the year. April, August, December sounds about right.

I suppose CBS will be announcing something by the end of February.

Is that confirmed is it April when S3 because this season is my favorite season some really good stories and the best cliffhanger in any Star Trek series !!! I've been looking on line with amazon uk but I can't pre order it yet.

FrontierTrek · January 5 2013, 10:51 AM

They haven't fixed a date to my knowledge, but they're shooting for April.

Agree, it is arguably the best season of TNG with an outstanding cliffhanger. I am looking forward to an April release

Well, that didn't take long:

April 10th, hooray!

^^Even more interesting is that we could be seeing The Best Of Both Worlds remastered in it's entirety in April. I'm excited enough about these blu rays that I might buy season 3 AND the special BOBW release.

tomalak301 · January 8 2013, 08:31 AM

I don't entirely like the fact that if you want both episodes, you have to basically buy them twice. One as it's own set, and the other as part of Season 3 and then Season 4 of the blu-ray main set. I wouldn't mind if they offered up exclusivity like they did with Best Buy and include the BOBW disc as a bonus disc. It would be better than paying an extra $10 (just a guess) for episodes you're already going to get with the rest of the series. I do like however that it sounds like both Part 1 and 2 are being remastered by CBS-Digital. Would hate to have one look awesome, and have the other with the possibility of looking like what we got with HTV.

No, you just have to wait. If you want both episodes but don't want to buy them twice, just buy the season sets and skip the standalone release.

Best of Both Worlds edited together as a feature length episode? But the DA-DA-DA-DAAAAAAAAA needs to cut to credits for maximum impact!

Tosk · January 8 2013, 10:46 AM

If they really wanted me to flip, the feature length edit of BOBW would also include the opening of DS9's Emissary in the correct spot.

Don't worry, I'm not serious...but it'd be cool.

If you read that article, it only refers to the AUS release by Paramount Australia.

We might not be even getting a BOBW single disc release. The release date for S3 might also be different for the US.

The BOBW disc is for worldwide release as far as I'm aware. Regarding the release date - as I mentioned in the article, US/European dates may differ by a few days either side, but I wouldn't expect a huge difference.
