View Full Version : CBS confirms Star Trek TOS Overhaul Maxx_75 08-31-06, 01:48 PM This series is going to get the royal overhaul with CGI and the rest of the works. Linkage (http://tvguide.com/News/Insider/) Kosty 08-31-06, 01:56 PM Way beyond cool. I thought the TOS ships looked pretty good with modern special effects in the Enterprise mirror universe episodes. I look forward to this. Phloyd 08-31-06, 01:58 PM This series is going to get the royal overhaul with CGI and the rest of the works. Linkage (http://tvguide.com/News/Insider/) I think some of the 'fixes' are probably ok but really the addition of 'activity' to star base scenes smells a lot like Lucas' manipulations of the Star Wars original trilogy... :( SpHeRe31459 08-31-06, 02:02 PM There's a thread already started about this in the HD-DVD forum here: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=716523 Maxx_75 08-31-06, 02:06 PM I think that they wont pull a Lucas on this one. TOS is already out on DVD in its original form. I would apriciate some cleaning up of the film stock. Also as stated the work that they did in Enterprise was great. I am going to give them the benifet of the doubt at this point. jtbell 01-20-07, 06:03 AM Trekmovie.com reports that the remastered Star Trek TOS (currently being broadcast in SD) is to be released in HD on HD-DVD and Blu-Ray beginning at the end of this year: http://trekmovie.com/2007/01/17/trek-remastered-and-trek-movies-coming-to-hd-dvd-and-blu-ray/ Dan Hitchman 01-21-07, 12:30 PM Can't they just restore the old versions and leave it at that? There's a special appeal to the "cheesy/cheap factor" in these classics. In fact that was used as a running joke in an episode of DS9 where the crew went into the past during the Trouble with Tribbles episode. This re-imagining has got to stop!!!!

Just seeing Dax in a TOS miniskirt was well-worth it though. :D |
