The 2007 startrek.com commentary has only shown up later on websites that have sought to preserve it. They have never officially incorporated it into the film on official releases either digitally or physically. The commentary track listed on the new 4K release is listed as 'NEW', which makes...

Robert, you're under arrest for using a promotional still of the Xenomorph from 2004's 'ALIEN VS. PREDATOR' to represent the 1979 film 'ALIEN'. They look nothing alike.

Whoa. Now that you mention it, I too have wondered where that brand has gone. I guess when technology got better and cheaper, studios started getting a lot more options with regards to how their movies are restored and/or remastered. Eventually, they didn't need the THX brand to show that their...

When taken all of the Indiana Jones movies into account, Temple of Doom has the unfortunate distinction of being the most unique movie out of the whole bunch. It's not hard to see how after ToD that the next two Indy movies all followed the Raiders formula almost to a T. Large foreign power that...

Despite all the restoration work that's going to happen, think it will still be in Letterbox Widescreen?

"with one character sacrificing his life in a similar fashion instead of the one in Khan, the living character uttering the Wilhelm scream “Khaaaan!” before going on a chase to save his friend." That's not how it went down! Spock beams down to Earth with the clear intent of murdering Khan. He...

Insurrection. A film that on it's own is a very bland but mercifully short distraction. But as a Star Trek product that takes into account other Trek properties such as Deep Space Nine? Character assassination. Let me explain. Insurrection had to acknowledge that Deep Space Nine was a thing...

*Looks at the top left screenshot on the back of the insert* That's a Star Trek IV shot of the original crew in the Shuttle Pod on their way to the Enterprise-A.

Well, focusing solely on the principals is one thing. Focusing on them to the point where it comes at the expense of the other characters is another. The previous film, Star Trek IV, managed to give the non-essential characters roles that they normally wouldn't have gotten in the series, let...

If we're going to talk character assassinations, nothing beats Star Trek V in that department. Sulu, Chekov and Uhura were more than willing to throw their careers away and face a potential court martial for their actions in Star Trek III. Their loyalty to Kirk was that great. Now in Star Trek...

One of the pinnacle failures of Nemesis was everyone coming into this film wanting to make an action movie with Patrick Stewart doing action hero stuff. There are two reasons that I can come up with as to why this happened. 1. Patrick Stewart loves action. One of his personal favorite episodes...

I'm glad Nemesis is getting lower on a lot of reviewer's lists. Rick Berman honestly thought that this movie was going to nail it. The Next Generation crew was going to get the big send off unlike any other and movie goers were going flock from town to town to see it. And now, 14 years after...

III definitely has a lot of good things going for it. One aspect I've come to appreciate is well it shows our crew without Spock there to help out. I do have one major nitpick, and that's the film's screenplay. It tries to throw character guilt where none should exist. The scene with David and...

See? This is what everyone was talking about when the previous transfer was too blue. This and the DC are all I really wanted from this release. And if it comes out on UHD, wow. I'm this will be fun.
