Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection...

[ToyfareMark]

I bought this Blu Ray collection last week and I really like it. Sure its all threatrical cuts but thats fine with me. It looks incredible on Blu and I love all the extras (I only had these on VHS before), and I think it was 100 dollars well spent.

Anyone have this?

You mean, it's the Wrath of Khan on Blue ray, everything else is pointless dvd extras.

Actually The Undiscovered Country is my favorite. I like all of them really except for 1, even 5 has its moments.

Yeah, that was a little harsh on my part, as III, IV, and VI are watchable films. I drags on far too much, for what is basically a remake of "The Changeling." The only thing V has is the line "Excuse me, but what does God need a spaceship for?" Everything else is a horrible combination of the worst of Science Fiction.

II, IV, VI, and First Contact were all excellent movies.

I'm in the minority of Star Trek: Nemesis fans. Blatant rip-off of Wrath of Khan or not, I loved the Shinzon character.

I like Nemesis too, but I still think Picard needs to die in a film, and I still think Q need to make his long overdue film debut.

I like the "Star Trek Trilogy" (2,3, & 4) 6 as well.

Blu-Ray?

Pffft.

I have The Search for Spock and The Wrath of Khan on Betamax!

Beat that!

See they also have a Boxset of 2,3, and 4. But Since 6 is my favorite I had to get the whole set. The 7th disc with the roundtable with Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, William Shatner, and Leonard Nimoy is pretty entertaining as well.

I thought I saw a blue ray box set for like 80 dollars at Best Buy a couple weeks back-mighta been the first 5 or so, I could be wrong.

I have Wrath of Khan on laserdisc, and I'm not upgrading it. I've heard that the amount on DNR used is atrocious on the new releases.

To be honest, Nemesis is probably the strongest outing for the Next Generation crew. Can't say I care for First Contact or Insurrection. Generations might have been along with them if not for having Malcolm McDowell as the villain (hamming it up or not, I can't resist him for some reason) and the somewhat satisfying swansong for James T Kirk. Yeah, I would have preferred they left it as it was after The Undiscovered Country but for what it was, it was alright.
