You know, I could talk about the sheer idiocy of Rick Berman and Brannon Braga, or how the latter ST series have radically changed in tone from the original series, but I'll just say "apples and oranges".


Please dude...dont' turn the thread into a knockfest on the quality of Trek in its various forms. The post was about the fact that original Trek is getting the SE treatment, but the original versions are available. While with Star Wars, we just have the "enhanced" version and that's it. We're finally getting the OOT, but in less than stellar quality.

I'll wager that these SEs of original Trek will probably look pretty good and won't have any added scenes that change the feel of the show or alter the audience's perception of any of the characters. They'll do to Trek what Lucas should have done to SW...simply clean up some SFX, change others and improve them by updating them and making both versions available, not ripping the hell out of them and not making the originals available.

I just find it funny how both are getting "updated" while the originals of one are getting treated well and the other is getting treated like shit. Even funnier is that the one getting treated like shit has its creator alive while the other is dead.
