Star Trek Menagerie in HD

Any Star Trek fans out there? I met with a local group of Star Trek prop collectors yesterday for a geek fest, culminating in watching the 2-part Menagerie episode on the big screen. For any fans out there that have thought about going, the remastering is really something to see. The original negatives have been digitally enhanced with defects and dirt removed, and all the external special effects have been redone - it's really amazing.

We started yesterday about noon at a local steak house, then went to this guy's house and watched Wrath of Khan in his really amazing home theater - he has portions of several sets plus the command chair from the Enterprise TV show. Next we went across town and saw an amazing collection of original props and costumes, ate dinner and ended at the local Regal and watched the HD version of Menagerie. It was a long day, but lots of fun and an opportunity to make new friends.

HA! I watched "The Undiscovered Country" last night for no reason at all! "LET them die..." hehe
I always wanted some Tribbles!

I was a Trekkie from the first show on NBC back in 68.
I have followed the gang and love to watch the reruns.
I hear they are coming out with another Star Trek movie soon.
Live long and prosper.

I love Trek! *Unofficial rumor is they want Matt Damon to play Kirk in the upcoming movie.

Your a little behind - they've already selected the new Kirk (as well as most of the cast - Winona Ryder as Spock's mom?):
