Hyperchannel 106: Third Verse, Less Than the First by Trek fm

Paramount’s 50th anniversary Star Trek movie sets.


There's no better time than the 50th anniversary to dip into the untapped well of knowledge that is out there amongst the people who created Star Trek. So why are there no new extras on Paramount’s upcoming rerelease of the TOS and TNG motion picture collections? In fact, why are the existing extras now gone? We share our thoughts on the matter.

Star Trek: The Compendium to combine both J.J. films plus bonus features | The Okudas talk Orci as director, Netflix, and the future of Star Trek

Running Time: 17 minutes 19 seconds


Star Trek: The Compendium to combine both J.J. films plus bonus features

When Paramount released Star Trek Into Darkness on home video, the fanfare that the studio had hoped for was replaced by outrage. For those who enjoy bonus features—one of the key reasons to buy Blu-rays—there was no way to get all of the content that was produced. By splitting up the bonus content amongst various retail outlets, Paramount angered fans and shot themselves in the foot. Finally our voices have been heard and a new collection coming in September will bring both Abramsverse films and all existing special features into one box. A rebate offer is even in the works.

Find out more about what's included on the discs.

 

The Okudas talk Orci as director, Netflix, and the future of Star Trek

Few people have had more influence over the look and feel of Star Trek over the years than Mike and Denise Okuda. Dare we say no one knows more about Star Trek than they do. Having worked on every modern Star Trek series and the (non-Abramsverse) films, Mike and Denise have a unique perspective on where Star Trek has been and where it is going. In a new interview with TrekMovie.com, the Trek dream team share their thought on Robert Orci directing, the rumors of a Star Trek series on Netflix, and where they would take the franchise themselves.
