All 6 Original STAR TREK Films Beam Down on 4K Blu-ray in September, Plus TMP Director’s Edition & Special Longer Version

Connect with trekcore.

It’s been nearly a year since the first four  Star Trek films arrived on 4K Blu-ray, when the theatrical edition of  Star Trek: The Motion Picture joined  Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan ,  Star Trek III: The Search for Spock , and  Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home on the ultra high-def format and in newly-remastered presentations.

The final voyages of the  USS Enterprise- A are now about to be completed, as Paramount Home Entertainment announced today that Star Trek V: The Final Frontier and  Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country will finally arrive this September to round out the six-film 4K UHD Blu-ray collection — along with Robert Wise’s  Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition in both a standard and limited-edition 4K release.

Along with standalone 4K releases of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan ,   Star Trek III: The Search for Spock , and  Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home — previously part of last September’s four-film collection — all six Original Series films are now going to be available in a new 15-disc collection arriving September 6.

New additions from the 2021 release include  Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition (3 discs), Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (2 discs), and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (2 discs).

Full contents for the 15-disc collection which you can preorder today:

· NEW! Star Trek: The Motion Picture —The Director’s Edition (4K + Blu-Ray) · NEW! Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition Bonus Content (BR) · Star Trek: The Motion Picture Theatrical Cut (4K + BR) · Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Theatrical & Directors Cut (4K + BR) · Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (4K + BR) · Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (4K + BR) · NEW! Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (4K + BR) · NEW! Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Theatrical & Directors Cut (4K + BR)

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) will be presented in 4K UHD with HDR-10 and Dolby Vision, boldly remastered from the original film elements; a Blu-ray disc containing the remastered presentation will also be included. (A standalone Blu-ray is also available.)

Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country  (1991) will be presented in 4K UHD with HDR-10 and Dolby Vision, boldly remastered from the original film elements; a Blu-ray disc containing the remastered presentation will also be included. (A standalone Blu-ray is also available.)

Notably, this edition of  Star Trek VI will include Nicholas Meyer’s director’s cut of the film, which includes sequences cut from the theatrical edition — including the appearance of Rene Auberjonois as devious Starfleet strategist Colonel West, and some edits to the Spock/Valeris mind-meld sequence near the end of the film.

Those scenes have previously been available only on VHS, DVD, and in certain streaming-service presentations of the movie; this will be the first time the Star Trek VI director’s cut will be available in high definition on home media.

After beaming down to Paramount+ back in April, the long-awaited 4K remaster of  Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition is finally arriving on disc September 6, in a two-disc set packed full of new behind-the-scenes bonus content (as well as bonus features from previous releases).

While a two-disc standard Blu-ray release is also available, the two-disc 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray edition will feature The Director’s Edition in Dolby Vision and HDR-10, as well as with a Dolby Atmos sound mix for those of you with supporting home theater systems.

Here are the full contents:

DISC ONE · NEW! Audio Commentary with David C. Fein, Mike Matessino, and Daren R. Dochterman · Audio Commentary by Robert Wise, Douglas Trumbull, John Dykstra, Jerry Goldsmith, and Stephen Collins​ (from 2001 DVD release) · Text Commentary by Michael and Denise Okuda​ (from 2001 DVD release) DISC TWO · NEW! The Human Adventure —An all-new 8-part documentary detailing how the Director’s Edition came to life – Preparing the Future: How the remastering began – A Wise Choice: The storied history of Robert Wise – Refitting the Enterprise: How the Enterprise design shaped future federation starships – Sounding Off: Exploring new dimensions of sound in Dolby Atmos – V’ger: The conception and restoration of an iconic alien antagonist – Return to Tomorrow: Reaching an already high bar with new CGI effects – A Grand Theme: Behind the iconic, influential music score that shaped the franchise’s -future – The Grand Vision: The legacy and evolving reputation of this classic movie · NEW! Deleted Scenes · NEW! Effects Tests · NEW! Costume Tests · NEW! Computer Display Graphics · Additional legacy bonus content

While the new commentary from the trio of driving forces behind the  Director’s Edition is a lovely inclusion, the one thing this does seem to be missing is the 2007 audio commentary track Fein, Matessino, and Dochterman recorded for the DVD edition of the film which we’ve saved in the TrekCore archives here for posterity — so if you want that for your legacy DVD copy of The Director’s Edition , you’re welcome!

The fully-remastered and enhanced  Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition will also released in a massive three-disc special limited set this September, as The Complete Adventure will contain not only the  Director’s Edition and theatrical cut of the film in 4K UHD, but it will also include 1983 “Special Longer Version” as an exclusive feature.

Producer David C. Fein also confirmed the “Special Longer Version” 4K edition will include one shot of previously-unfinished VFX, which we’ve learned will be a fix for the infamous exposed-rafters shot from Kirk’s spacewalk departure.

There is one previously unfinished vfx shot, yes. — David C. Fein (@DavidCFein) July 6, 2022

The “Special Longer Version” (also known as the “ABC cut”) included nearly 12 minutes of additional footage not seen in the theatrical edition which originally aired on ABC in the United States in 1983 and had a decent life on home media up until the mid-1990s. This will be the first official release of this cut of  The Motion Picture  since its last VHS edition in 1991.

Beyond two additional cuts of the film (which will not be on the standalone 4K release of The Director’s Edition ), the additional on-disc bonus content will be identical to the standalone TMP:DE set.

Full contents:

· NEW! Star Trek: The Motion Picture —The Director’s Edition (4K) · NEW! Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition Bonus Content (Blu-ray) · NEW! Star Trek: The Motion Picture Theatrical Edition + Special Longer Version (4K)

Along with the on-disc content,  The Complete Adventure also includes replica  Motion Picture promotional material, stickers, poster art, and more in its oversized packaging. The limited edition The Complete Adventure set also arrives September 6 and is available for preorder today.

As for the four  Star Trek: The Next Generation films, while not announced for 2022, we highly expect them to follow on 4K Blu-ray in 2023 to coincide with the return of the TNG cast in the third and final season of Star Trek: Picard; the remastered edition of  Star Trek: First Contact is already available on Paramount+.

In the meantime, let us know what versions of the classic  Star Trek films you’re going to be adding to your own collection as we wait for September to get here!

Blu-Ray Review: Star Trek 10-Movie Stardate Collection

• Blu-Ray Reviews , Film Reviews
• No responses
• February 9, 2019

By Dominic Messier, Founder, Editor and Film Writer (Not to Mention Inveterate Trekkie )

Just imagine it. .

Over a half century of stories born from a single TV concept imagined and retooled by a former airline pilot named Gene Roddenberry, who dared to dream about humanity having progressed past its petty differences and squabbles, enough to make it out in space and amongst the stars, both scientifically and diplomatically.

As of this writing, there are thirty seasons of television shows in the franchise, all the more bolstered by its cinematic incarnations. Sure, J.J. Abrams ingeniously revamped the franchise with a reboot and a younger crew, but most of us recall growing up with some form of  Star Trek  or another, namely the ten feature films starring the cast known from what is now dubbed the “Alpha Universe” (aka the William Shatner and Patrick Stewart years) as opposed to the “Kelvin Universe” (named as such due to the pivotal history changing event of the 2009 reboot.)

Any self-respecting Trek fan will have seen the entire run of films, but every so often, Paramount Pictures generously packages an all-in-one set that ensures viewers can get the full experience, bells and whistles included.

Imagine my surprise when I learned of another release of the original 10-film collection, which promises tons and tons of extras.

While I was disappointed to learn that this is merely a re-release of a similar package from about six or seven years ago, I can still vouch for its contents, now available again for a whole new generation of future Trek fans.

What to Love

I mean, seriously, what isn’t there to love, here? Sure, there are many theories over whether the odd-numbered films are cursed with less-than-stellar (no pun intended) plot lines, but the real magic here is that all ten discs (with two extra ones for bonus features) include every single special add-ons from each release. We’re talking behind-the-scenes looks, original trailers, interviews and the like.

My recommendation? Watch these films again, not only in their 1080p high definition glory both sound and picture-wise, but do so with the audio commentaries. Most include a director’s feature-length audio track that proves to be a treasure trove of trivia in its own right. I highly recommend picking your favorite and taking in the movie with a whole new perspective.

The Nicholas Meyer track on  Wrath of Khan alone, to me, is worth the price of this box set, but imagine this option on the other nine movies as well. Be it Nimoy, Shatner, Frakes or any of the other Trek veterans who’ve worked in front of and/or behind the camera, it’s simply amazing to find all of these titles in one nifty box.

What to Skip 

Well, it’s not so much a negative, but many might be turned off by the fact that this isn’t exactly a new release with new content. A quick glance at the bonus features on the two extra blu-rays promotes films from 2012 and 2013, which match the previous dated release of this box set.

Trailers like  World War Z and  Star Trek Into Darkness come up in the previews, destroying the illusion that this is nothing more than a re-packaged offer, but still a worthwhile one, if you don’t mind that some of the extras include the last day of the Las Vegas Star Trek Experience celebration. Very fascinating stuff, given that the exhibit closed down….in 2007.

Given the re-release of an existing set with a different cover, it’s truly a take-it-or-leave it affair. If you don’t already own these twice over and missed the previous version of this movie collection, then I definitely lean on the “take it” side. The extras and commentaries alone are worth the reduced retail price, given the catalogue and their age.

That said, I think it would have been a much stronger set had it contained the full range of films from both universes, the Alpha and the Kelvin ones, so that completists could thrive of an all-inclusive box. After all, with various reports coming in that some of the new leads like Pine and Quinto might be iffy about a fourth new Trek film, the thirteen movies could be all there is for the foreseeable future.

Which is fine, given that the franchise is seeing an amazing resurgence, what with CBS All-Access working on a slew of spin-offs set within the storied Trek universe.

So, yes. Love the collection, but putting a fresh coat of paint on a house you already own doesn’t make it new or that much different.

Then again, I’m in the minority here. After all, the needs of the many truly outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.

Star Trek VII: Generations 4K Blu-ray Review

The original crew's swansong impresses in a substantial 4k upgrade for star trek vii: generations along with 7.1 audio and more. here's our full review..

The Bottom Line

• + Impressive remaster
• + 7.1 audio mix

Should you buy it?

By the early 1990s, Star Trek was in a boom phase with two successful shows on air, the development of a third (later to be titled Voyager ), and merchandise flying off shelves. When the long-running The Next Generation series completed its seventh and final season, attention immediately turned to returning the franchise to the big screen, with a story befitting a much larger canvas.

The result did the job, grossing four times its production budget worldwide and ensuring that more feature films would come. However, the film remains an odd curiosity, with a flawed execution of a problematic script but enough ambition that it remains relevant in the wider canon.

During a media event to christen the new Enterprise B, decorated Starfleet Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) becomes lost and presumed dead when the ship comes into contact with a mysterious ribbon of energy. On a routine mission eight decades later, the crew of the Enterprise E (the Next Generation crew) investigate an attack on a nearby observatory, which not reveals a much deeper plan hatched by Klingons and a damaged scientist (Malcolm McDowell) but that also may hold the key to the whereabouts of the legendary starship captain.

Whether it was a lack of confidence in the ability for casual cinemagoers to fully embrace the notion of Star Trek without its more iconic characters, or whether the studio wanted something bold and cinematic (perhaps both), Generations remains fatally flawed by shoe-horning in William Shatner's final Star Trek performance (especially since the original crew's goodbye in the previous film The Undiscovered Country was so poignant).

Few Trekkers regard it as a high point, and the narrative gymnastics required to include him made the film confusing and unapproachable to casual audiences. Still, there's a lot to like in the film (including the visually stunning crash sequence), and the filmmakers had the insight to take these learnings and simplify the next few entries, which took the series to even greater heights.

Video transfer

Star Trek VII: Generations is presented in its original aspect ratio of 2.35:1, encoded with H.265 compression, and finished with a Dolby Vision pass, in addition to a base HDR-10 layer.

As with its six predecessors, Paramount has dusted off the original conformed camera negative to produce a stunning new 4K transfer, which replaces the previous, nearly 20-year-old HD master in an entirely comprehensive manner. The image here is stable, bright, and crisply detailed, with superb definition. The color balance is excellent, with rich and saturated tones where appropriate.

Like its newer 4K predecessors, this is an extremely 'filmic' presentation that removes noise, film artifacts, and egregious digital noise reduction and edge enhancement techniques, which marred the original release.

Overall, this is a really impressive remaster, and Paramount should be applauded for the care and attention they've given their crown jewel franchise in 4K.

Audio transfer

Star Trek VII: Generations is presented in a Dolby TrueHD 7.1 remix at 24 bits.

While the previous Blu-ray featured the same 5.1 audio track utilized for the last few home video releases, Paramount now appears to provide a brand new 7.1 mix. This would normally be welcomed and now provides technical uniformity with the other 4K releases, but it also piqued my curiosity - if they went to the effort to remix, why not update to the industry standard Atmos?

Well, my answer was revealed through an analysis of the underlying audio channels spectrums following a tip-off from a Blu-ray.com forum member. The rear surrounds are identical and duplicated. There's no new additional audio information or more aggressive placement - this is a fake 7.1 remix. Cheeky!

Duplicity aside, there's not a whole lot else to complain about, with no problems on audio sync or dialogue intelligibility. Bass is responsive when requested and effectively underscores some of the more intensive sequences. The score provided by legacy TV composer Dennis McCarthy is appropriate, but one of the lesser soundtracks composed for Trek movies and a far cry from the grandness of Jerry Goldsmith or James Horner. However, it's well mixed into the soundtrack, taking center stage where appropriate.

Overall, this is a solid effort, but perhaps it would have been a bit more honest if Paramount had simply repurposed the previous 5.1 mix - or actually put the effort in to produce a genuine 7.1 (or Dolby Atmos) mix.

Bonus materials

Unfortunately, unlike other international releases, Paramount has again not included a copy of the standard Blu-ray in the Australian release, which means all the video-based features are absent from this edition. Trekkers would be advised to hang on to the previous Blu-ray release or import the U.S. or U.K. editions to retain everything.

However, the 4K disc does include two previously released Audio Commentaries , the first provided by Director David Carson, alongside Star Trek: Enterprise producer Manny Coto, and the second featuring screenwriters Brannon Braga and Ronald D. Moore.

The Next Generation crew warp to the big screen in a flawed debut, which nevertheless shines anew in 4K.

Review: ‘Star Trek: The Original 4-Movie Collection’ 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Is A Big Upgrade

| September 7, 2021 | By: Matt Wright 68 comments so far

The first four original series movies have been newly restored and released in Ultra High Definition; here’s our review of the 4K UltraHD Blu-ray boxed set.

The classic Trek movies hold a special place in the hearts of many Trekkies—this was the only Star Trek we had until 1987, when  The Next Generation premiered.  This boxed set features the theatrical editions of The Motion Picture , The Search For Spock, and The Voyage Home . The Wrath Of Khan disc follows the blueprint of the excellent 2016 standard Blu-ray of the Director’s Cut , and includes both the theatrical and director’s cut on the disc, thanks to seamless branching.

The  Wrath of Khan ,  Search for Spock , and  The Voyage Home  making an unofficial “Genesis Trilogy,” are considered by many to be fan favorites. From the return of Khan to the loss of Spock, the crew stealing the Enterprise and getting Spock back, and finally redeeming themselves by saving the future by going to the past to get a pair of humpback whales, the three movies are filled with action, adventure, and a lot of heart, which helped the films cross over to include mainstream audiences.

The Motion Picture  of course started it all in 1979, and while it’s cerebral style and more quiet pacing make it stand apart from the three Genesis Trilogy movies, it also has its admirers, myself included. And due to the grand scale and scope of Robert Wise’s film, it probably benefits the most from this new 4K transfer. It should be noted again that this set includes only the  theatrical edition  of TMP. There’s a  separate project  by Paramount+ and the folks who worked with Wise back in 2001 to make a new 4K version of the Director’s Edition that is expected to be released for streaming in 2022.

The Ultra HD Blu-ray set

The boxed set comes with two 4-disc cases inside of it. One has the Ultra HD Blu-ray versions of the movies, and one has standard HD Blu-ray discs. The Blu-ray discs feature the same newly restored versions of the films, just in 1080p. These new versions of the 1080p Blu-ray movies will also be sold separately for those who haven’t made the leap to 4K/HDR.

Video Quality

The short version: These four movies look amazing. They look like films again, far less processed than the previous releases, and that alone makes the set worth getting. The wider color gamut of Ultra HD allows for richer colors; for example, the “monster maroons” are a shade of rich deep red. The films also benefit from a restrained HDR grade that helps retain details in the brighter scenes.

Nitty-gritty details: Without a doubt the films look much better than they ever have on home video. The previous versions of the films which were released back in 2009 and then repackaged ever since had a number of shortcomings. They were overly processed, which meant the natural look of film was often scrubbed out. The biggest symptom of this over-processing is that faces looked waxy: The Voyage Home was one of the worst offenders. So these new versions of the films may at first appear “soft,” but that’s not correct; what this new scan of the movies did was restore a natural filmic look to the movies (film grain), and finer details are more visible now.

The crew looks much more natural in 1986 from the 2021 release

2009 zoom, notice how Uhura’s and Sulu’s face are especially “etched” looking.

Zoom on the 2021 version, shadows blend naturally on the faces and everyone’s jaw lines aren’t traced out like a bad drawing.

NOTE: The screenshots included in this article are from the standard Blu-ray 1080p release. The 4k HDR versions look even better. Staring at still frames of a motion picture isn’t exactly how a film is intended to be watched, so take these as general demonstration of the changes.

Another noticeable aspect that has been corrected with this new set is that the 2009 versions fell prey to the popular style at the time of making everything more steely blue (or teal). This has been corrected, and the films now look much like they used to (on DVD releases, theatrical prints, etc.).

The 2009 version of the transporter room scene in TMP has everyone looking very lavender.

Now in 2021, skins tones are more natural and the walls and Kirk’s uniform are blue.

Another flaw the 2009 releases had was that bright scenes were blown out, which was never supposed to be the case. This is fixed in this new release.

The Enterprise bridge explodes in TSFS, 2009 version.

The Enterprise bridge explodes in the 2021 version. Notice the details behind the Klingons can be seen, including smoke, sparks, and parts of the bridge.

There is one notable oddity with TMP and it must be called out: The drydock sequence appears to have been sloppily edited to try and “fix” something that really didn’t need fixing. There is a support arm for the Enterprise model that is briefly seen. It was covered in black fabric and quite frankly is hard to see, I’ve never once found it distracting in all my years of watching TMP and TWOK (where the footage is reused); it didn’t need fixing. The “fix” has been detailed by the Twitter account TMP Visual Comparisons for readers who want more details and includes a video. What may be most irksome is that this is the theatrical version and should be preserved as-is; any changes should be left to the Director’s Edition team that’s working on a new version right now. Ultimately, this amounts of about five seconds of the movie, so it can be overlooked, but one wonders why it was done at all.

The TMP blurry shot with small “fix” errors in the left of the drydock and deflector dish of the Enterprise.

The same footage is reused in TWOK without digital tinkering.

Audio Quality

The audio mixes are the same excellent lossless 7.1 Dolby TrueHD mixes released with the Blu-rays previously. I will say I’m slightly disappointed they didn’t remix the movies in Dolby Atmos, but that isn’t a deal killer by any means. The mixes are great and sound really good on a modern surround system. I’m going to quote myself from previous reviews.

From the 2009 boxed set review:

The Motion Picture benefits the most from a new mix. Finally TMP feels like the big epic movie it is. The dialogue intelligibility is good and is better than any other version. Surround use is plentiful: the excellent Jerry Goldsmith musical score fills the room, transporter sound effects swirl around you, the engine room throbs with power, etc.

And from The Wrath of Khan DC:

This time around I have a Dolby Atmos enabled setup (5.1.4 for those interested), so I was able to hear how the standard surround mix was “up-mixed” into a pseudo-Atmos height enhanced version. The results are generally quite good, the classic James Horner soundtrack swells to fill all around as expected. Other atmospheric noise (ex: bridge noises, ships warping by, and the stormy Mutara nebula) is often heard from the heights giving a bigger more natural/fuller sense of the environments.

Special Features

As is common practice, the Ultra HD Blu-ray discs have minimal special features to allow maximum space for the 4K video. The majority of the extras are found on the standard Blu-ray discs.

This set carries over pretty much all of the special features from the 2009 versions of the movies, which in turn carried over most of the DVD features from before. I recommend you check out our review for more .

Rather than recap all the extras, I’m going to point out what’s new and what’s missing from this set.

What’s new

The only new feature for this set is for The Motion Picture , both the UHD and standard Blu-ray feature an isolated score track in stereo. Goldsmith’s music is iconic, so it seems fitting to offer this as a new option.

What’s missing

There are two features worth mentioning that aren’t included. The first is “The Captain’s Summit,” made for the original 2009 boxed set and not released again. We can hope that since the summit includes the Next Generation cast, this might re-appear in a hypothetical future boxed set of 4K TNG movies.

The other feature that would have been great to see is the multi-part documentary by Roger Lay Jr. (who did the excellent documentaries on the TNG-R and ENT Blu-ray sets) commissioned for the 50th anniversary boxed set in 2016.

It’s understandable why these two features aren’t there, as they were separate documentaries that were included as a separate disc in their respective boxed sets, but it would be nice to get them into a new set at some point.

Final thoughts

The first four movies have never looked better. Is this set perfect? No. But it’s pretty darn close. As fans who enjoy these films and want to have them in the best possible format, this is a must buy . Fans need to vote with their wallets. Remember, there’s more at stake here than just these four movies. If we want the rest of the Trek movie franchise available on disc, the studio needs proof that there’s a demand for it.

Releasing the movies only to digital is relatively easy and low cost for Paramount, but physical media requires time and effort since it is a physical product. Many of us are anxiously awaiting the new 4K version of The Motion Picture: Director’s Edition , but as of right now it has only been announced for streaming on Paramount+ next year. There’s no word yet on if or when there will be a release on disc. So showing the studio that fans want Trek movies on physical media is important.

If people don’t buy these on disc, it sends the message that streaming-only is okay. Streaming rights come and go and vary by region, so the only surefire way to collect these movies in 4K to keep as your own is on disc. And at least for the US version of the set, it comes with a code for a digital copy of each movie, so you can have your handy digital version while also showing your support for the disc format.

Can’t wait!

I agree with Matt — restorations of films shouldn’t concern themselves with fixing “bloopers” in the SFX — they should be concerned with restoring the film as it was shot. Save that kind of thing for Director’s Editions, etc.

I’m curious as to why Kirk and Spock are wearing the TMP uniforms and McCoy is wearing the TWOK-and-after uniform.

There’s also a Phase II Enterprise in there and the background is the primary hull of the 1701-A, so clearly not a whole lot of research was done.

I like the more character based collage, I am just glad they are starting to release the films in 4K and I hope the content outweighs the aesthetics when it comes to getting the rest of the movies, I want the rest in 4 K as well.

Has Sulu’s Kobayashi Maru scene been corrected in the TWOK DE? Or does he still face front the whole time?

That was fixed right away in 2016. https://trekmovie.com/2016/06/22/wrath-of-khan-directors-edition-recall-information/

Tons of stock of the uncorrected version are still out there. The only thing that was different was a sticker on it to tell them apart. They had the same cover.

And one of those landed at my house.

Thank you for the link. I was not aware.

Edit: never mind!

Regarding TMP, I’m wondering if they went to the original 65mm VFX elements as the source material as opposed to upscaling a print of the movie. I was reading a July ’21 interview with Doug Trumbull where he says he was involved with 2001’s and Blade Runner’s transfers as he knew where they were (the 65mm vfx elements) having worked on them.

My memory of the theatrical release in theaters was the vibrant burnt orange fabric material used in the crew corridor scene and the sparking blue eyes Stephen Collins had when he had his close ups. Vulcan had a hue to it that gave it a hell-ish appearance. In my mind, it was like a visualization of Jupiter’s Io moon’s surface(sans active volcanos). The color vibrancy and scene contrasts, for me anyway, made the movie special and memorable.

I’m recalling Michele Small’s comments in the recent TMP Making of book where she claims much detail in the Vger cloud drawings done with 70mm in mind but diminished in the final print.

As many times I have seen the movie, I can’t believe I found something ‘new’ or didn’t realize before. On a recent tv viewings and in one of the later scenes, the Alien Boy, was in a corner shot that I didn’t remember from before. It could’ve been the way the movie was cropped for tv but it definitely wasn’t pan and scan.

For the Director Edition 4K release, I hope they get the surviving cast for NEW reflections on this movie while they are still around. Although, I’m hearing Nichelle Nichols may be suffering from dementia. All we have left are Shatner, Takei, Koenig, Nichols and Collins. I say, get them now before they’re gone. :)

I doubt anyone will be offering an interview invite to Collins, but agree – our time with these people is brief. We need to be capturing their thoughts and recollections while we can!

I did an interview with Trumbull a couple of years ago where he talks about the 65mm elements. https://trekmovie.com/2019/07/26/interview-vfx-pioneer-douglas-trumbull-on-how-it-took-a-miracle-to-complete-star-trek-the-motion-picture/

Yeah he was very vague. He never mentioned if what he wanted to do was recomposite the original 65mm negative, which of course would now be done digitally. But it still would be crossing into Star Wars Special Edition territory. You would get much sharper images from the larger size negative. But you’d also get more grain. I’d still like to see it.

I reread your article. Great job. I found I made the same comments back then. I guess we need to hear from the current restoration production team as to how they are proceeding for the 4K DE. I would hope for some kind of Trumbull consultation. Trumbull is right to ask if Paramount kept the original source material. It would be horrible if they didn’t.

As an aside, Trumbull reportedly underbid for the VFX for TWOK but Paramount chose ILM. While not to detract from ILM, one would think Paramount really owed it to Trumbull for helping the production make TMP and deliver it on time. TWOK done by Trumbull would’ve maintained consistency with its visuals and look far superior in 70mm assuming they used the 65mm elements in the final print without reducing and blowing it up again. Having seen TWOK in 70mm its original theatrical run, I can remember detractable grain in the print but the soundtrack was quite spatial, full and dramatic!

The shot of the Enterprise approaching Spacedock is better, the composite plates were visible on the 2009 blu rays but not on these new transfers. It was great to see this thing fixed up.

There’s a weird black dot crawling leftward across the neck of the Enterprise from about 1:17 to 1:29. I’ve never noticed that before on this movie.

Can I ask why it’s the first four and not all six? What’s the point??

It takes time to do the remasters for one, so putting them out in sets as they are done allows the initial ones to be released. The other reason given is that putting them all out in one massive set would have been an expensive box for folks to buy all at once. By splitting them up (3 sets total I believe plus the separate TMP DE) it makes it affordable to buy over time.

Nicely explained.

Because they can sell you the rest separately…. and then release them as a set yet again of all 6 in 2023 with a bonus collector’s pin or some crap. For sale again, and again and again.

It was fun buying each TNG season re-release at $70 each… and then all 7 seasons were released as a box set 2 years later for 1/10th the price.

Since you’re the first person to make this kind of comment, I’ll reply to you. Hopefully others read this too.

What you’re referring to is the behavior of companies at the height of the DVD format (which as it turned out was also the height of all home video discs). DVD was a gold mine. This is not the case today. Physical media sales have been in slow decline for about 10 years. The realities of that have taken quite a toll on the home video departments of the studios. The home entertainment division of most studios exists in name only. A skeleton staff is usually folded up into a marketing department. There is now a single replication plant (the factory that stamps out the optical discs for all studios/labels) for all of North America. Discs have to be scheduled out well in advance and there’s still often stock issues. For example, many people are getting shipment delayed messages for this TOS movies set because of the limited disc production capacity.

Today studios are much more inclined to do fewer, but significant, releases, knowing that this may very well be the final disc version. So yes, these four movies may eventually get re-packaged into a new boxed set in a few years, but it also may not. If these initial waves of movies don’t sell well enough, you won’t see the rest of the Trek films released on disc to make that hypothetical “double-dip” boxed set.

I’m well aware of the changes on the media landscape, likely the same as everyone else here. My snarky comment stands.

Paramount has double dipped ten fold with these movies. And now there is the balls to suggest that consumers purchased a *substandard* visual release on Blu-Ray ten years ago due to trendy colour timing and over-zealous grain reduction?

This is not to suggest a 4K release isn’t welcome. It’s going back to the well over and over in a way to soak every last cent out of paying fans. And that’s capitalism, and that’s fine. But it’s not being done as a “favour” to fans or consumers.

Your comments suggest that consumers should be taking *pity* on the home video departments? The studios have cannabalized themselves in favour of embracing streaming.

Studios have bent over backwards competing to make streaming services as lucrative to consumers as possible…. and consumers should feel BAD that physical media sales take massive hits? Ridiculous.

“So yes, these four movies may eventually get re-packaged into a new boxed set in a few years, but it also may not.”

Would you like to make a friendly bet that they absolutely… without question… will be re-packaged together as a complete set? We’ll both obviously be here in the next 36 months.

And why physical media releases at all? Why not 4K with direct access only through Paramount+ like the upcoming TMP release?

fans waiting to buy the TNG seasons in one cheap box set is why Deep Space Nine and Voyager will never be in HD.

But whose fault is that? The consumer? No. The producer? Yes. If media companies spend the last 40 years keeping consumers accustomed to that type of product release, what is expected to happen?

That’s completely unsubstantiated since it’s not 2014 anymore.

The tired argument parroted from many years ago that VOY and DS9 won’t be updated to HD because of sales of TNG BD which ENDED in 2014, does not hold water in 2021.

Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+ has proven that sales of physical media has no bearing on future projects directed for streaming services only.

The 4K releases of pre-existing Star Wars and Marvel content on Disney+ would clearly suggest their is a huge financial model to investigate (or clearly already being investigated) for projects like VOY and DS9 being revitalized for the new world of streaming.

Fixing vfx is not changing the creators intent, so it’s absolutely ok with me. I even love it, because every time I see mistakes in vfx/movies in general, it takes me out and destroys the “in-movie-realism”. I ordered the box first day! Can’t wait to get the TNG movies on 4k Blu-ray!!!!

It also depends on if people could see these mistakes on original 35mm prints. I don’t think the wires holding Superman up were as visible on general release prints, or you could see the Cowardly Lions tail where it was sewn or pinned on. But when you do an HD scan every little thing you never noticed is very visible like Qui Gon’s fake pasted on beard. Every little stitch in clothes is revealed, every pore on a person’s face. There is removing something that isn’t intended to be seen like the matte lines and garbage mattes in Star Wars, or complete revisionism where does one draw a line.

I still can’t begin to care about TMP. Rewatched it again after nearly 20 years for my grand rewatch and can wait for another 20 years to watch it again. Maybe it will be 16000 K by then…but still just as dull and bland for me.

I agree Tiger. I will use the disc as a coaster when I get around buying this set lol

The next set based on the rumors we have to buy the coasters Final Frontier and Generations to get Star Trek VI. And finally for the last one two more coasters to get First Contact we have to buy Insurrection and Nemesis.

You are repeating yourself dude, you said this in another thread.

I’m with you. The last 15 minutes are when the movie really gets into gear when they discover the true nature of Vger. It’s a long slog until that point though.

Revisionist critics praise the film as a visionary cerebral film on the level of 2001. No.

Reivisionists Time Travellers?

“The Enterprise, perhaps deliberately, looks a lot like other spaceships we’ve seen in “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “Silent Running,” “Star Wars,” and “Alien.” Kubrick’s space odyssey set a visual style for the genre that still seems to be serviceable. But the look of the other spaceship in “Star Trek” is more awesome and original. It seems to reach indefinitely in all directions, the Enterprise is a mere speck inside of it, and the contents of the alien vessel include images of the stars and planets it has passed en route, as well as enormous rooms or spaces that seem to be states of a computer-mind. This is terrific stuff. … Such reservations aside, STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE is probably about as good as we could have expected. It lacks the dazzling brilliance and originality of 2001 (which was an extraordinary one-of-a-kind film). But on its own terms it’s a very well-made piece of work, with an interesting premise. The alien spaceship turns out to come from a mechanical or computer civilization, one produced by artificial intelligence and yet poignantly “human” in the sense that it has come all this way to seek out the secrets of its own origins, as we might.

There is, I suspect, a sense in which you can be too sophisticated for your own good when you see a movie like this. Some of the early reviews seemed pretty blase, as if the critics didn’t allow themselves to relish the film before racing out to pigeonhole it. My inclination, as I slid down in my seat and the stereo sound surrounded me, was to relax and let the movie give me a good time. I did and it did.” — Roger Ebert, December 7,1979

I’m still happy with my DVD Special Collectors Edition. But, interesting review.

I wish Star Trek VI had been remastered but i’ll take the first 4 films. Its better than nothing. Just wish it had the original theatrical audio. Where someone else wants an Atmos mix i want the original stereo audio track that was seen in the general theatrical release. TMP stereo mix hasn’t been available since Laserdisc and VHS. Since the first dvd was the directors cut which was a remix and the theatrical dvd also a 5.1 remix of allegedly the 70mm mix, but i can’t speak if that is accurate.

Trek VI will be in the next set. Hang in there.

Thanks for the review , Matt Wright . The extras look impressive . And I’m sure the Original Movie Series latter 5+ Set will be coming soon enough too . Hopefully something in there for the stereophiles as well ? Not everyone can run an expensive 5.1 + sound system , without losing household power . To run these sound systems ($3000-$10K+) , you need to put in a $30K-$50K Solar backup ?!

These are actually only the same extras that have been available for years , only the isolated score is new.

Thanks DataLore ! It looked new , maybe I’m wrong .

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but for TVH photos shown here, I actually find the 2009 comparisons looking like a sharper, better picture. For example, look at the better details on the background office buildings. But thanks for the work on this article.

Yeah. I agree. It’s weird though isn’t? I don’t understand why that would be the case.

At the end of the day I suppose It’s best to see the film in motion for a definite conclusion.

I actually agree with this to a certain degree, I will say watching the actual movies makes it slightly different, these are cases where the latest transfer looks better and then other times where 2009 looks more impressive.

Is the new release od TWOK the same master as the 2016 release? I’m sticking with standard Blu ray and have ordered the standalone discs for the others.

Its the same transfer only available in 4K UHD disc for the first time with HDR. The blu ray will be the same transfer as the 2016 corrected disc. The ones that are new are Star Trek I which is the theatrical only, Star Trek III and IV.

Thanks bud.

For the Trek II Blu-ray, that’d be not just the same transfer, but the same whole actual disc, right (with the same menus, extras, etc.), differing only in the packaging and the label printed on the disc?

It’s not exactly the same disc. The menus are different. And the 2016 version includes part of the Roger Lay documentary I mentioned in my review titled “The Genesis Effect: Engineering The Wrath of Khan”, this new version drops that.

So there is not the Directors Cut of the 1st Movie included?

No. That is going to be reserved for Paramount+ in 2022. I’m deeply disappointed that there will be no 4K relase of that to 4k dvd.

As I mentioned in my review, keep voting with your wallet. Show Paramount you want physical copies on disc. It’s likely that after an exclusive window on Paramount+ the new Director’s Edition will be released on disc, but fans have to demonstrate they want it.

I wonder if the 4K release is a good opportunity to do the original Home video edit of Star Trek VI that had always been released up till the DVD release, which included Rene Auberjonois as Colonel West as well as a few other extra scenes along with the original theatrical version. Given the aspect ratio difference prob not as easy for seamless branching but if both cuts of Wrath of Khan are available, then maybe they can do both for The Undiscovered Country, is it possible?

I ordered this from Amazon, but it hasn’t shipped and seems to be in some kind of limbo. Must be selling well!

Its backordered everywhere i’ve tried to get it from two different retailers and no dice. Even had it preordered on Amazon for months. Its a travesty they shouldn’t allow a preorder if they don’t have the actual item.

I ordered a new one through Walmart. They say I will have it by 9/15. We’ll see!

Personally – didn’t want to wait for a shipment. Drove down to my local BestBuy today – 11 copies on the shelf. Any big box stores near you?

Yeah, and I’m thinking I might shoulda done that same thing — no sign of this thing shipping. But I don’t even have a 4K television yet (that’ll change next week), so I’m not in that big a rush.

Have been watching these, often they look really good , other times there are cases where the 2009 looks better.

Personally II-IV look fantastic, The Motion Picture , I really love The Motion Picture by the way, the effects, sets, and costumes look really great but it is too dark at several points.

Thanks for the review. Does TVH set contain the “International Prolog” that was attached to the film outside of the US and appears just before the dedication to the Challenger crew? I’m sure most will have seen it; a collection of clips from TWOK and TSS with narration from William Shatner. This is the version that played in UK cinemas and later on home video and for me, the movie always seems incomplete without it.

As far as I know, no. It’s the US theatrical version. They stopped including that prolog with the 2009 Blu-ray version.

Thanks Matt. I had hoped it might have been included in the extras.

no dolby atmos? which penny pinching exec made this stupid decision? what a wasted opportunity. Im so disappointed. Wont be buying this set after all. Having gone to all the effort of upgrading to 4k and not upgrading the sound to the latest and best format is just a travesty imho.

Sadly, shipping is taking a hit right now. Don’t know when I’ll receive my pre-order.

Star Trek Genesis Arc = Star Trek looking its best, at its best. For those who love that series check out the DC comics at the time with lots of movie era adventures. Will make you long for ST:TNG to have been a movie era series.

Not me. But I do love those movies.

Not yet available in Canada. Or in scarce quantitites if any.

I finally had a chance to drive to my local BestBuy – they had multiple copies on the shelf.

That said, I hope you were able to find yourself a copy!

It be cool if the next set was out for Christmas, but will probably be early next year.

A Complete Timeline of the Borg in Star Trek

Quick links, the creation of the borg through star trek: enterprise, star trek: the next generation is when starfleet engaged the borg, star trek: voyager traveled through borg space and almost destroyed them, the borg returned in star trek: picard for one last battle.

Throughout the six-decade history of Star Trek , there have been many iconic villains, but perhaps none more so than the Borg. Created by Maurice Hurley, the head writer for Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 2, the Borg began as an organic species looking attain perfection. They achieved this by merging their organic bodies with cybernetic components. Individuality was erased, creating a hivemind culture of beings that sought only to assimilate more species and their technology in the search for perfection. They are led by a queen, a singular consciousness that can occupy multiple bodies.

The Borg are incredibly powerful and are known to travel via transwarp. They are even capable of time travel, though they don't do it very often. Given all that the Borg have going for them, it's no surprise that they were meant to be the ultimate villains Starfleet could never reason with. Over time, these villains became more complex and some even became Federation allies. Yet, the Borg have a long history in the Star Trek timeline, predating the earliest human space travel.

How Did Star Trek: Enterprise Become a TV Series?

The Borg have existed in their modern form since at least the time of the 15th Century on Earth. During the USS Voyager's travels in the Delta Quadrant, they met members of the Vaduwaur species who had been in stasis for more than 900 years. They had "many encounters" with the Borg who, by this time, had assimilated a few star systems in the Delta Quadrant. However, given the Vaduwaur didn't see them as their worst nemesis, they weren't as advanced as the Borg in the 24th Century.

In 2063, a Borg Sphere emerged from a temporal rift to prevent the Humans from making first contact with the Vulcans. The USS Enterprise-E followed them and destroyed the sphere, though a number of drones beamed aboard their vessel. Captain Picard defeated them, and Zefram Cochrane made his first warp flight . Some 90 years later, in Star Trek: Enterprise , remnants of the sphere were found in the North Pole. A handful of drones were revived and escaped in a space vessel. They were pursued and destroyed by the NX-01 Enterprise, but not before sending a message about Earth's location to the collective in the Delta Quadrant.

10 Star Trek Time Travel Stories That Changed Canon

The El-Aurian Guinan was saved by the USS Enterprise-B in 2293, along with fellow survivors of her people. Her planet had been assimilated by the Borg, and this was when Starfleet learned the species' name. Erin and Magnus Hansen, tried to study them in the late 2340s before they and their daughter Annika, Seven of Nine, were assimilated. In The Next Generation Season 2's "Q Who," the omnipotent being sent the USS Enterprise-D thousands of lightyears away from Federation space where it encountered a Borg Cube. They were only concerned about technology at the time, but this meeting led them to Federation space.

One year later, in 2366, the Borg sent a single cube to assimilate Earth. They captured Captain Jean-Luc Picard and assimilated him, giving him the name "Locutus." He was meant to demoralized Starfleet to prevent humans and the rest of the Federation from fighting back. He was freed of their control, but not before the Battle of Wolf 359 which destroyed 39 ships and killed 11,000 people. Among those were the wife of Commander Benjamin Sisko and the crew of the USS Constance of which Captain Liam Shaw was one of ten survivors. Commander Data briefly connected himself to the collective, ordering the Borg drones to enter regeneration and initiating the self-destruct sequence.

In 2368, the USS Enterprise-D encountered the Borg again, discovering a crashed scout ship. The drone Third of Five survived . Picard wanted to use the drone to implant a deadly virus into the collective. However, separated from the collective, the drone became an individual named "Hugh." He was returned unchanged to the collective, though Hugh's individuality caused a meltdown in the collective. A year later, Data's brother Lore found the cube and became their leader. He tried to replace their organic minds with positronic brains like his. The rogue Borg eventually overthrew him with help from the Enterprise. Five years later, another Borg cube was sent to Earth and was eventually destroyed, but not before sending the Sphere holding the Queen back to 2063.

How Did Star Trek: Voyager Become a TV Series?

In 2373, the USS Voyager entered Borg space on their journey home from the Delta Quadrant. At the same time, the Borg tried to assimilate Species 8472, which hailed from a dimension of "fluidic space." The assimilation didn't work and war broke out. Because 8472 was so hostile, Captain Janeway was able to enter into an alliance with the Borg to help defeat them, specifically with the help of the ship's holographic Doctor. The Borg betrayed them, which Janeway anticipated. The drone Seven of Nine was freed from the collective and became a member of the crew. Though she wished to rejoin the collective and tried to do so twice, she eventually chose to stay with Voyager .

In 2375, a transporter accident involving the Doctor's mobile emitter (based on 29th Century technology) and Seven of Nine's Borg nanoprobes. A drone was "grown" in the tank and designated One. The Borg tried to assimilate him and he willingly ended his own life. Later that year, the USS Voyager salvaged a transwarp coil from a destroyed Borg vessel. This led the Borg to enact a trap meant to bring Seven of Nine back into the collective as a replacement for Locutus. Janeway and the crew rescued her. A year later, while trading with the Brunali, Voyager was attacked by Borg vessel. However, they hid a photon torpedo in a captured Brunali vessel that destroyed the Borg ship, allowing Voyager to escape.

In 2377, Seven of Nine was reunited with other Borg in "Unimatrix Zero," a digital plane where drones retained their individuality. Captain Janeway used this opportunity to plan an attack on the collective and start a resistance movement. Captured by the Borg, many of Voyager's crew were assimilated. Thanks to the Doctor, they retained their individuality freeing thousands of drones and starting a Borg civil war. In 2378, a time-traveling Admiral Janeway showed up on Voyager with a plan to get the ship home. The plan succeeded, but the Admiral was assimilated. She carried a virus that decimated the collective to nearly the point of destruction. Five years after the return of the USS Voyager, the rag-tag crew of the USS Protostar found a Borg Cube, but they let sleeping Borg lie .

The Picard Blu-ray Underscores Why Each Season Needed the Borg

A Borg Cube that assimilated a Romulan vessel suffered a submatrix collapse, and it was captured by the Romulan Star Empire. In 2399, the ex-Borg Hugh led the Borg Reclamation Project on a ship dubbed "the Artifact." To stop a plan by a cult of anti-synthetic Romulans in the Tal Shiar, Seven of Nine created her own mini-collective and led the Artifact to crash on a planet populated by synthetics. It's presumed the surviving xBs (as they were called) joined the society on that planet. Hugh, however, was killed in the attempt.

In 2401, a Borg vessel of unknown origin appeared and asked to speak with Admiral Jen-Luc Picard. The Queen of this collective was Agnes Jurati, who was assimilated by the Borg Queen of an alternate timeline who took Picard and his allies into the past to save the future they knew. Jurati convinced the Queen to create a new kind of collective in which individuality was maintained and assimilation was voluntary. This new collective applied for provisional Federation membership to stand guard at a rift in space through which a still-unknown threat would emerge.

Also that year, the near-dying Borg Queen allied with Changeling terrorists angry with the Federation after the Dominion War. They infiltrated Starfleet, adding a DNA sequence to Starfleet transporters that would assimilate anyone under the age of 25 once they received a coded message. That message was sent by Jack Crusher , the son of Picard and Dr. Beverly Crusher. He was assimilated by the dying Borg Queen and named Võx. New technology added to modern Starfleet vessels allowed these new Borg to assimilate the ships in moments. Using a rebuilt USS Enterprise-D, the command crew of that vessel saved Jack and destroyed the remaining Borg, seemingly defeating them once and for all.
