According to digitalbits, these are the orginal theatrical editions, none of the extended versions will be included. Also means that this is the first time Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country has been released in their normal, unaltered version on disc, DVD included. Watch for a Director's Edition of Star Trek I, II, and an Extended Edition of VI sometime in the future. |

man, i'm so tempted to get this... but these are theatrical versions... i might have to hold off and wait for the director's cut/extended editions (which according to bill hunt, they will probably release later)... damn double dips... |

Paramount's just teasing consumers with this set. There should be seamless branching with the Special Editions on the same disc. Just like rabid Star Wars fans, Paramount knows they will have no problem selling these discs to Trekkies. It's easy money. Just like when they originally released the DVD versions. First they did the theatrical editions, then double dipped on the Special Editions. |

I would be much happier of the Next Gen films were included. I am itching to watch First Contact on Blu. |

I'm with you TheManInBlu - don't care if theatrical version or not. First day purchase for me - hope to do a Star Trek marathon viewing w/ friends right before we go see the new film! |

Like I said before, they are more than made up for being exclusive to that other format. 
Another step in BD's Supremacy over the home video market. |

Glad to see the coming - but I'll wait for the releases featuring director cuts etc. and in single edition releases. Love the 7.1 audio! I'll be renting these till a more elaborate edition is released. |

Check out the announcement on thedigitalbits.com for quite a bit more information. For example, while it isn't confirmed, they are suspecting that the NextGen films AND the new Abrams film might all be released as a boxed set, just in time for Christmas, of course, and that seasons 2 and 3 of the ST:TOS will be forthcoming as well. So....
Can I possibly hold out until the end of the year.....
I don't think so. We'll see. I don't know that the "extended versions" are all that important to me or if I'd even know the difference, having not seen the originals in so long anyway. |
