Nice title! And cool projects. Is the Director's Cut on DVD significantly different from the long VHS version?

I would say yes. The Directors cut for the most part trims down a number of scenes from the Original as well as the Longer version to make the film move a bit faster. They made some new spfx for some segments, and that would be the major reason for getting this title IMHO. For me, the new spfx shots add to the enjoyment of the film.
Still, there are a few things about the Director's Cut DVD that bug me. For one, they cut out a small part of the Klingon Battle at the start of the film. WHY? That small trim disrupts the flow of the music cue playing under the battle. Being someone who loves the STTMP score, this jump in music is jolting and unwelcome. It seems to me that they got a bit heavy handed with the razorblade.
Hope this helps.
