The release date of these kind of puzzles me. I sure thought they would launch in November with the new movie. Wonder if we can expect that "complete" movie collection in November that has been noted a few times now.
i had a £60 amazon voucher so got this for just over £46 i think it was and also ordered the new star trek movie,although the jury is still out on that for me after 1 viewing but will give it another go anyway.Going back to the next gen boxset i didnt like insurrection but its cheap enough so might aswell.Oh and my best one is generations
I'm going to get all. The only question is when and for how much. First Contact is the best, but I can wait for a deal. Eventually someone on here will post a great deal for each of these movies.
I'm gonna hold on really tight to my SDVD versions with the DTS Digital Surround. Too bad Paramount decided for Dolby TrueHD. Bleh!
However, I may go ahead and get these BDs for the special features. I am such a huge fan of "The Next Generation" and I LOVE all of the characters!! I'd love to see Brent Spiner's "Data and Beyond" 4-part extras -- SWEET!!! The other stuff sounds realy cool, too!
bfellow >
Guydowood, they have painstakingly added 100 extra minutes of whale footage!
is that of George & Gracie or the Cast...lol
It will be interesting to see that this will actually consist off. I recall the original Laserdisc release of IV was a director's cut, but don't recall what other footage was chopped. Perhaps the pre-sequence opening that was used in Europe that showed clips from Part's II & III has been added back in. and it is odd not to release III seperately.....
Definetly getting this set on first day, Nemisis is the only one i'd say i don't love, but insurection, FC and generations are great movies (yes i love insurrection, take that haters!)
wish they had announced these later, September is going to be wallet suicide
I have all of these movies on standard DVD and they have an awsome kickass DTS sound track on them, I wouldn't waste my money on the crappy True HD version, As we all know Paramount aren't very good when it come to Blu-ray sound, For Gods sake they didn't even bother to put a 7.1 track on these titles, Shame on you Paramount your hopeless.
First Contact is very good. The rest are mediocre, though I'm expecting Generations to have great PQ just from the PQ of thhe original material. The true stinker for me is Nemesis.
