    That's actually one thing I never felt comfortable with. Just like with Discovery's latest season, objects that span light years are impossible to visualize at all. Such an object would be a region of space, albeit a movable one. I think you lose the audience when you're talking about that kind...

    I've seen a lot of discussion of this film in this forum and others, and there are actually people complaining about spoilers! The base film here is 42 years old! And this cut (minus the 4k) is 21! The statute of limitations for spoilers has expired.

    Holy smokes! I never thought this film would look this good. It’s really incredible. I hope everyone who is interested can watch it this week. Let’s send a strong message to Paramount that we will support works like this. Maybe that’ll nudge them to upgrade DS9 and Voyager. I will say that P+...

    It looks like it’ll be amazing.

    If it’s well-received, I believe it increases the chances. That means, driving subscriptions to P+, cutting churn, and to a much lesser extent, sales of physical media.

    They're doing some incredible work. That shot of Vulcan alone is going to worth the wait. And Kirk's close-up is a stunning difference.

    Make sense? Sure, but without the substance of who these people are and what they’ve been through. It is almost certainly made for fans of the show. Unlike Trek movies which were always marketed as “you don’t have to be a fan to enjoy it.”

    As I mentioned in the Downton Abbey thread, my wife and I saw DA last night. It's a good movie, especially if you enjoy the show. I said to my wife, who is a big fan of DA (and of Star Trek), "Seeing the Downton house on the big screen must be a thrill, kind of like when we saw the Enterprise on...

    That TMP poster is still my favorite movie poster of all time. Bob Peak was the best there ever was.

    Anyone know the runtimes for the theatrical, director's cut and the VHS extended editions?
