Star Trek: TNG goes HD

I don't like when they go in and change the colour or something of an original effect.

Other than that, it's good news

so they give us a video tape sized image to mark this momentous event

Damn jews can't even part with a single frame of proper blue ray goodness.

That one I posted is the small version, you can click the ones on that page to open them in full size. Not sure if you noticed that. Yeah, they're still not 1080p screencaptures. I just posted that one to show the colour difference.

yeah, still not 1080p...but whatever, I 'm not gonna bother with this since I happened to watch the entire series last year, in shit quality. Oh well.

I didnt think they would do this. I had read somewhere long ago that TNG, DS9 and VOY were shot straight to video to cut costs and there was no HD film to remaster. Turns out all the live action was shot on film, and all the VFX was done on tape. Thats quite a lot of $$ put into an old series to redo all the VFX shots. Hopefully it sells well and the other series get the same treatment.

Thanks DTS. T'is good news.

You've probably guessed I am a SF fan so I am looking forward to watching them all again in quality.
I am certain the fans will love the effort and a whole new generation might appreciate the genre.

I was looking for a present for myself (just now) and thinking ST Enterprise in blu ray?

They found out that nerds have lots of spare cash.

Bachelor of the year.

Some more comparison shots here:

They don't have pictures at 1080p (or 720p for that matter) but it does show some of the improvements well.

Really have to hand it to the team there. So many BluRays are just wasted chances worth nothing, just a simple upscale+noise filter...

But this is really something else. The entire thing looks so crisp, so much attention to detail. Might actually pick this up, but I bet it will be mega expensive for the full set.

They're planning on two seasons per year so you can spread it all out over the next three and a half year

Oh right... Well that makes it easier then Any ETA on a release date?

2012 for the first two seasons. Nothing more accurate than that.
