Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection (The Motion Picture / The Wrath of Khan / The Search for Spock / The Voyage Home / The Final Frontier / The ... Captains Summit Bonus Disc) [Blu-ray] Reviews:
So far, so OK
2009-11-04 - I just got this and haven't finished ST 1 yet but this is what I have noticed. Some scenes look great while others not so great. In the beginning where the Enterprise is leaving spacedock there are a few big black spots that appear on the enterprise and I mean BIG. I can't beleive that these were allowed in the transfer. Also, when the Entperise has entered V'Ger and Kirk tells Sulu to take them 500 meters above and 200 meters out there are three smaller black spots on all the outside shots of the enterprise in the scene. When they go to interior shots they look ok. The other thing I have noticed is that when a character is the main focus visually for a scene, almost everything outside of the focus is highly blurry. Not sure if this is the same on the VHS and DVD releases. I'm gonna check this but it is kind of annoying.

As for the movie itself, by not including a lot of the extra scenes the movie seems to jump and not make sense at some points. Also, the deleted scenes are included as extras but not all the extra scenes from the directors cut made it to the deleted scenes section.

Once I see more, I'll review more.

Great movies with great bonus features
2009-10-21 - I'm just now upgrading to the big flat panel TV and blu-ray player. And I'm using this box set to introduce a new generation to the original Kirk and Spock (now that they've been hooked by the JJ Abrams version). I haven't watched all the discs in the set yet, but those I've used play great on my Samsung blu-ray player. How can you beat watching the famous Kirk line, "Get ready Kahn... Here it comes!" in high quality on a big screen at home?

I've also enjoyed the bonus features on these discs. It's fun to watch cast interviews and learn behind-the-scenes facts about the production. I wish I had time to go through them all.


Great box set
2009-10-19 - Just a few words: a must for all trekkies! Great picture quality and pretty good sound. Long live the original series!


OK, we all love these films, with all their flaws, but could this release have been better? A big YES!
2009-10-08 - All of the films should have been expertly restored, possibly with some special effects re-created (to look just like the original only with flaws fixed, see some of the technical issues others reviewers have pointed out), visible make-up could possibly be improved with colour alteration on selected scenes, and much more. The bottom line is Paramount just don't want to spend the money required to do this, so that they can maximise their profits. Just take a look at the excellent restoration job done on Blade Runner, Original film cleaned, scanned at highest possible resolution, each scene carefully looked at and restored, for example one shots shows a hovering police car that previously you could see the wires supporting it, now carefully painted out. Had the same care and attention (and money) been spent on restoring each of the Star Trek films, they would no doubt look a lot better. At least KHAN was restored, but not to the same degree that Blade Runner was.

The Studio may do a restoration at a later date so they can sell it to us all again. Look at the way Paramount has consistantly milked fans of their money with so many different releases of the Star Trek Series and Films, what a contrast to Star Wars, yes there have been a few versions over the years as improvements were made, but on DVD, basically one quality release of each film with plenty of extras at a fair price. Respect to George Lucas for not over milking us of our money. Shame on you Paramount, you are charging enough for the Blu-Rays and you have made huge profits from Star Trek over the years, give a little back by spending the required ammount to do the best possible restorations, you owe it to the film makers and the fans!
