I went to BB today and talked with a girl there, she went into the back and said that they were recalled and not with the other movies to be put out Tuesday. Poop. Its silly, who cares if its a slight misprint... if they are GOING to put the trailer on there, great! if not, just let it be. its not like it was gonna sell millions and millions of copies anyways.

I'm really surprised Paramount recalled it over such a small thing. Why didn't they recall ST:VI for having the much bigger error of upside-down disc art? One of the later DS9 series sets also has a large fleet of ships flying backwards throughout the seven discs as well.

I just saw a commercial for this on FOX about 30 seconds ago...why are they advertising it if its been recalled?

Got mine at a Borders on Friday. I went in and didn't see it on the shelf, so I asked a clerk for it. He looks it up in the computer, it says there are two on hand and he makes a comment it's probably on a display up front. After searching all the displays in the store, he says, "Maybe it's still in back because they didn't think it came out yet." (He's saying this while I am eyeing the 9/14 release of Rocky and Bullwinkle Season Two sitting on their shelf.) He goes in back and brings out two copies. I snag one and a friend I am with snags the other one. They were selling for an unbelievable low price of 14.99. At Borders, I was expecting to pay at least 24.99-29.99 for the thing.

I just wanted it to own. My friend isn't even opening his. I ripped mine open right after I got home and put in the bonus disc and watched the movie Saturday. I was disappointed that it wasn't an extended cut, but after viewing the less than disappointing deleted scenes, I wasn't too upset. I am just glad to have it on DVD.

Circuit City ad still had it in. I'll check it out tomorrow if they have it. If they do I'll get it for $12.99.

I played dumb about the recall and ordered it from DDD last night. This morning's e-mail says "In-Stock", so we'll see if it's going to ship or not....

I checked a K-Mart this morning. They had the new disks sitting in boxes on a cart. I saw Generations and grabbed two. Later I went to Wal-Mart and they had it out on the shelf. I don't think this is going to be that hard to get.

What's the deal with people saying the transfer is bad though? Should I wait or are they only changing the small error on the back of the box?

Meijers & BB here in Okemos both had sent their stock back. CC had two copies on the shelf but the checkout would'nt permit the discs to be sold. On a better note: Amazon.ca shows they shipped mine this morning!

If anyone here comes up empty in their travels today or it doesn't ship, I found some. Click HERE for details..

i got mine at suncoast for 14.99

Best Buy had a sign out about the recall and none on the shelf.

I got it at Wal*Mart for $14.44.

Apparently, Wal-Mart didn't get the recall memo (or ignored it). The one I went to had about 8 copies for sale. I decided to pick one up. I don't need the sticker on the outside package telling me that there are actually no trailers on the discs (which is what Paramount is apparently going to do). If they were actually going to put the trailers on the discs or tweak/improve the transfer, I would have waited for the new release date. Unfortunately, there is no indication this is going to happen.

wait a minute..... the ones on the shelves right now doesnt have the trailers?


NOOOOOOOOOOOO.....

damn.... are they going to add theatrical trailers or are they just going to leave it out?

If anyone in Central Michigan is interested WalMart on Marsh Road/Lansing has some for $12.99

FYI Canadians - I was in two Future Shops today and they both had Generations for $12.99 (I think - maybe it was a buck or two more). I would've got it, but (1) I'm not a fan; and (2) it had another ugly Paramount bilingual cover on it. So there you go.

I went to BB this morning and was able to grab one. I'll hold off on opening it though. I don't care about the misprint, but if they are going to put the trailers on it then I'd rather have them than not, especially if the price is the same.

same here..... but are they going to add trailers or not?

This is what dvdreview.com writes about ST: Generations:

"The presentation is free of defects or blemishes, rendering a very clean picture throughout. Color reproduction is very good, bringing out the best of the colorful costumes and settings, truly giving the film an otherworldly feel at times. Black levels are rock solid and create deep shadows that never lose detail. However, the transfer also exhibits some shimmering problems. Especially the close-ups of Data’s face and the desert scenes reveal these problems. The shimmering seems to be a problem of edge-enhancement applied too liberally to the transfer and is becoming very distracting at times. Many shots also reveal halos around contours as a result of the edge-enhancement. The compression has been handled well without out notable compression artifacts."

I went to BB, CC, Wal-Mart and Sam's and couldn't find one! They were putting out the Star Trek series out and I thought maybe they had the Generations DVD, but alas, none to be found...

I'm about to go check my K-Mart and Target down the street, I refuse to give up now seeing that others have found one

does anyone know if they will add the trailers to the dvd?

I got a voice mail yesterday from Suncoast saying that it wouldn't be released today since Paramount was recalling it due to a defect. They gave me the option to wait for the release or to (wait for it) cancel my preorder.

I'm going there tonight to pick up some other things, so maybe I'll see if they realize what the "defect" is.

CC by me had three copies. I picked one up and the check out register wouldn't ring it up cause it had a release date of 09-07-05. The clerk overrode it though and I got it for $12.99.

Me too! Woohoo!
