Finally able to watch the disc, although without the Final Frontier beer I wanted as it is sold out
I stand corrected regarding that duplicate shot of Sulu and the viewscreen. I figured it would be hardly noticeable but, wow, does it ever stand out.
I'm also noticing some softness to the image, but I'm wondering if that's my eyes being tired and not the disc itself.
The surround sound is fantastic. I believe it's been said it's the same sound mix as the previous disc but I never dse the old blu ray disc so it is new to me. I'm hearing sounds I never heard before, such as Kirk's birthday where the clock is ominously ticking in the background and the fire is cackling off to the right. These little subtle noises are excellent, as are the bigger sounds.
I'mnstill early in the movie yet.
Edit: I wonder if it's the higher quality of the picture or a random coincidence but I'm picking up a lot of little continuity errors that I've never noticed before. Nothing movie breaking, just strange that im noticing them now and not in any of my past viewings.
That stair climbing bit is kinda weird without the "That's my son" exchange.
My God, these ship models are beautiful. Even today CGI can't match them imo.
