So, are you going to be sourcing the final edit from the blu-ray, or just elements? For some reason it looks like the coloring is better on the blu...

I would if the version on Blu-ray was the director's cut. I want most of the director's cut effect changes in this edit. The Vulcan and San Francisco shots, The first attacks by V'ger, The Wormhole, The walk over to V'ger, The V'ger CGI fly-by, and stuff like that. Yes, I had to put  the wormhole scene back in due to impassable story continuity problems. I had to have Decker and Kirk have that conflict with the phaser order, and then half of the scene in Kirk's quarters. It's just way too important. The wormhole and quarters scene is cut down a great deal to make them move along faster, yet they still convey the important plot points, and character interaction.  

Sorry you couldn't get around the wormhole.  I wish they could have found a different way to have a conflict, instead of having this completely random wormhole and asteroid going at warp speed.  I guess its alright because it doesn't go on as long.
