I didn't need to know any of that to enjoy the movie, plenty of stuff in other movies has happened coincidentally or without explanation. Sometimes you just have to sit back and enjoy it for what it is.

Just watched the film with audio commentary last night. Both of these questions were addressed. As for when Nero knew Spock would exit the wormhole

As for the coincidence of Spock and Kirk reuniting

These points were originally part of the film, but had to be dropped for pacing's sake. I'm pretty impressed with the filmmaker's attention to such details and cannot believe that the screenwriters also wrote the Transformers movies. I can only blame Michael Bay for fucking those up.

Just picked a bluray player tonight with Star Trek

Anyone else have a misprinted 3rd disc? My Disc 3, says Disc 1 "Feature Film and Special Features" and instead of saying Bluray it says DVD. At first I got excited thinking that Star Trek was a Bluray Combo Pack like the Disney film, but it turns out my Disc 3 was labeled wrong. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how common this is.

Gizmo

So instead of the Digital Copy you got Disc 1 from the DVD set?

acdcrocks1980

It's labeled like Disc 1 from the DVD set, but the when I put it in my DVD player it say Digital Copy

Solid Snake

So guess what?...c'mon guess...you got a Digital Copy! Just like everybody else.

Gizmo

I'd check, but I sold mine the day it came in.

Best first post ever!

Do I smell upcoming spam?

Numanoid

I think I missed something.

A new member made their first post in this thread with this legendary observation: "hmm..I like it"...but from their signature (which contained two links to obvious bootleg/sales referral links), everyone was onto them from the beginning....

I know I'm a lil' late to the party here, but having no prior exposure to anything Star Trek related till tonight, I must admit that the new movie was cussing awesome.

Having liked this movie so much, would you recommend i watch the older Star Trek films? If so, which ones? how about the TV series?

Moopher

Dude, If you check TV talk, I have a thread I just started about this very topic, in still wrapping my head around everything that's been said thius far.

Blu Man

Saw it in theater and loved it, watched it on Blu today and loved it even more. Great movie, however I will say that the overuse of lens flares bugged the shit out of me. Other then that I loved it!

Shannon Nutt

My wife had never really seen Star Trek before the new movie (which she loved), so I showed her The Wrath of Khan, and she thought it was slow and boring (go figure)...but that's the one I'd start with if you just want a sample of the original crew to see if you'd like it.

has anybody ordered from amazon lately and can tell me
if they are still shipping with sleeve?
in general, are there already versions without the sleeve
floating around?

Kory

I haven't seen any in-store without the slipcover yet. It's actually shrink-wrapped to the case, so if it's supposed to still include it, it will still include it.

Solid Snake

Ditto. Shrink-wrapped to the case. And as I'd guess it'd have to cuz the case doesn't say Star Trek it just has Kirk on the front and Spock on the Back.

philip74

yeah you`re right, that would look sort of odd!
how did they handle this with the iron man bluray?
i am it also only had tony stark pictured under the sleeve,
are there any newer versions without sleeve for that title?

Solid Snake

No, I think it's all w/ sleeve.

fumanstan

I don't think i've seen Iron Man without the sleeve either.

Giles

what's up with the audio?? The dynamic range seems abbreviated, the IMAX mix was incredible, on bluray - the lossless Dolby TrueHD tracks sound lacklustre.

Josh Z

There's nothing wrong or "lackluster" with the Blu-ray soundtrack. You just don't have a subwoofer at home the size of those they use in the IMAX theaters.

Giles

aaaah thats it

Mr. Cinema

YMMV, but there are reports that some Walmarts have the 3-disc BD for $5.
