Season THREE OFFICIAL TNG Blu-Ray Discussion Thread

From the DVDs:

This was on the DVD special features, or was it the bonus Data disc from Season 6? It's been a while since I've seen the special features, but that's cool if it was and I didn't know it was during EoC where the visit took place.
 
So here's the missing 3-second shot thanks to some posters over at Blu-ray.com:

Looks like my speculation about the footage maybe being lost due to use in the First Contact teaser trailer was unfounded. This looks more like the situation with the missing 2 seconds from "We'll Always Have Paris" that was never located and less like the missing 13 seconds from "Sins of the Father" that was simply misplaced. I don't think it's likely that they'll ever find it.

But it *is* from Part II, just like I thought! The disclaimer on the package is wrong. :)
 
See, I would have slightly edited the footage so that Riker's "give us time" line was over an extended clip of Locutus on the viewscreen. Just a slight-enough change that 99% of people would never notice.
 
There's always the possibility it'll turn up in time for the Season 4 Blu-ray, but if not, the effort is appreciated.

By the time it gets to this point in the story, I'll be so into it I might not even notice.

That would have worked! I would have been okay with that. Or considering they were scanning everything, the use of another take or possibly compositing Riker's mouth movements from the 1-inch tape upconvert and blending it into the HD footage that *was* found. That way 90% of the shot would have been HD.

But, as it is, I'm sure it will be okay. Good thing the scene is dark. :)
 
Strange... did you notice how all the missing bits so far are featuring Frakes?!
Hmm...
 
I am tempted to buy the stand alone version of "Best of Both Worlds". Not sure if it is worth the money if I will own season 3 and 4 on bluray?

For as inexpensive as it is, it's definitely worth it - it's got like 30 minutes of disc exclusive documentaries, a BOBW-specific gag reel, and a full feather-length commentary. Go for it!
