Dear Gods – will we see it in Brisbane? Please say that this is not just teasing but that they will treat these cultural treasures with respect.. Bring on the HD format, but not at the expense of our already weighty collections. We moved to DVD from VHS – but to also move to HD would require not making our collections redundant.

I can’t believe they’re actually showing it in Australia!

I’ve booked my tickets and I can’t wait to see it on the big screen. I’m getting excited about it just thinking about it!!!!

I guessed you’re right… maybe they think they would need to show a french version. Witch is not the case cause I speak french and I would never, ever, watch those poor translation with the same 4 voice actors in every film

I’ve heard that Paramount will not begin releasing the Trek feature films until next Fall/Winter (around the time the new Abrams film arrives in theatres). We’ll just have to cope with TOS Remastered Seasons 1-3 until then.

Someone needs to tell Paramount to get off their butts and release the Ultimate Star Trek movie collection that was promised ages ago on HD-DVD…

I think they have a problem with French speaking peoples, because they are no screening in France, Québec, and in the French parts of Switzerland and Belgium. That’s about 77 million people !!!!

#24…

The Toshiba A2 & A3 are entry level players. 1080i contains ALL of the same information as 1080p. If you have a display that is already 1080p capable, then the image you receive on your screen will be 1080p, as your display will simply combine the two fields to make them progressive (native 1080p players simply do it in the players so your display won’t have to). I have an A2 connected to my 1080p Sony SXRD and it looks sensational.

In other words, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. In the end if you have a 1080p display being fed a 1080i signal, you’re still getting 1080p.
