    Star Trek in HD - with revised special effects?

    When I was a kid in the late 70s and early 80s, I loved the original Trek. Not because it was "cutting edge," but because it was an entertaining piece of science fiction. I mean, there was no doubt that the FX in "ST:The Motion Picture" and "ST: The Wrath of Khan" were a world better than...
