DVD vs. BR question

- Start date
If you are a completist like me, yes. I have both. But the again, I bought all the fan collectives even though I had all the series on DVD. Depends on how much you think $60 for both will set you back, if you buy new.
I've seen them for $5 each in the cheap bins at Walmart.
You sure that the Frakes/Sirtis commentary isn't there? I could've sworn I watched the Blu-ray with that commentary. But then I'm getting old and misremember some things sometimes. So I may well be wrong.
GET OFF MY LAWN!!!
It just dawned on me that you said no TEXT commentary!
God, I feel stupid!

It's great. They really rip into the film.

HA! But as already answered, THAT commentary is on the Insurrection disc.
The udder "shock" they had when they saw Patrick Stewart was an associate producer made for some fun! Great commentary! I wish the 2 of them had done the other movies as well.
No text commentaries, but the Frakes/ Sirtis commentary is there.
What bugs me is the menus.. they are all a waste. The only thing that is unique is that they will play a theme unique to that film, except of course, the First Contact blue-ray, which actually has the best theme of all of them.
Also, the stand-alone packing is ugly as hell, a lot of wasted space for the off-set Starfleet emblem.

"When did that happen?!" That was probably my favorite part.
I'll have to check out the Frakes-Sirtis commentary!
I feel the same way about the Shatner-Nimoy commentary in the Star Trek IV DVD.
They should've done commentary on all 6 movies, really.
In Trek III, I found Nimoy informative, but kinda dry. Same goes for Shatner in Trek V's commentary, but when they get together for IV?
Their chemistry takes off, and I had a lot of fun listening to them talking about the film.

My favorite commentaries are Braga and Moore's for Generations and First Contact. It sounds like they recorded these at the same time. They are honest, funny, and informative.
Braga: "The wine bottle sequence was my only contribution to the script. I wrote it on a post-it note and.... folded it in."
Braga: "The wine bottle sequence was my only contribution to the script. I wrote it on a post-it note and.... folded it in."
Yes, the commentary on "Generations" was surprisingly blunt. Braga admitted to freaking out when he realized "All Good Things," a script he and Moore threw together quickly was better than "Generations," which they'd slaved over for year or so.
It's also nice that the two seemed to have worked out their differences.
