Over 8 minutes courtesy of ST.COM! For those of you who've looked at this on youtube till now it might be a revelation.

Oh, God. Goodbye, arm. Goodbye, leg. I must have this. The interviews and behind-the-scenes footage by themselves make this worth having. Those "Galileo 7" clips looked great.

 

[Woulfe]

I like having an arm and leg to stand on and use.
SO
I'll wait.

Damn you, Paramount. Still, *only* ninety quid, and hopefully it will drop in price.

 

[Noname Given]

Ah well, I guess I'll have to wait a few years because Paramount/CBS will have to put it out on Blu-Ray before I pick it up (and yes, I know that they singed a deal - at least Paramount did - where they are now an 'HD-DVD only' studio); but with Blu-Ray sales still outpacing HD-DVD, I think one day, they'll finally come around. I can wait.

I know this is a stupid question, but do HD-DVD's play on normal players (but not with HD quality, of course), or do they only work in an HD player?

 

[NCC621]

It's a hybrid set, so it will play on HD-DVD players AND standard-def DVD units.

The new transfers look beautiful, and I can't wait to see the episodes uncut.

I really want Billy Blackburn's home movies. But there is no way I am going to buy the entire set just to see those. And am I the only one not impressed with the exterior tour of the Enterprise? It looks oh-so-fake.

Fake? It's a computer game model, not a movie quality model. That wouldn't be technically possible. The thing is just for fun, and personally I think it does look like fun.

 

[Kail]

Looks VERY cool, but I'm not buying Star Trek AGAIN.

 

[Ronald Held]

Another reason to get the DVD set. Then again I think of the price....

 

[Classic Fan]

Oh god. Star Trek, to buy again.


Jeees.

Looks good though, best set thats gonna available for 6 months until the next box set version.

Id consider buying if they include the original episodes un CGI'd aswell. But paramount will release that edition after 6 months from this version anyway.

I love the 'explore the E' feature though.

I think the old FX are available as a feature, from what I've read here previously. I can't confirm.

 

[Mr. B]

...this set look rather pricy, but i'll definately be renting it at least.

amazon.com has a good picture of the dvd case, plus it is only priced at 140....rather then the 200 retail price....

Cool stuff! :thumbsup:

 

[Jack Bauer]

Does the DVD side have the original versions or is it just the remastered versions on DVD instead of HD DVD quality?

 

[N-121973]

What order will the episodes be on the set, original broadcast or production?

The holidays will be coming so this may be something to suggest that someone gives you as a gift.
