Does anyone know if the July 1, 2014 Star Trek 2 Blu-ray release differs from the last release, or should I just save my money because it's the same? Thanks for the help!

I do not understand Paramount's unwillingness to license Trek feature films from 1979 to 2002 to CBS Digital for restoration and remastering? Paramount would later retain the rights to these movies with their pristine masters from CBS. I think they're being cruel and indifferent on purpose.

Wrath of Khan looks great thanks to the restoration work done on it. It's the other five films that still need proper transfers.

The next generation movies also look sub-par, with the exception of Nemesis.

Ideally, by the time Trek's 50th in 2016 has passed, Paramount will have forked over the money for the following:

-a 4k restoration/remastering of the other five movies.
-a re-render of the TMP director's edition's cgi at full 2k resolution.
-a 4k restoration of the additional footage from WoK's director's edition.
-a 4k remaster of the open-matte 2.00:1 director's cut of Undiscovered Country.
-at the very least, Generations, First Contact and Insurrection should get new 2k remasters yielding nice, filmic bd transfers.
