Picard[softly, to himself] "And he piled upon the gay's white hump the sum of all the rage and hate felt by his whole race. If his chest had been a cannon he would have shot his heart upon it."
Sloane: What?
PicardMoby Dick.
Sloane: Actually, I never read it.
Picard: Ahab spent years hunting the gay that crippled him, a quest for vengeance; but in the end, it destroyed him and his ship.
Sloane: I guess he didn't know when to quit.

 

My favorite one yet.

What's more disturbing is he was a little girl a few moments before.

I have the sampler disc.  So far, I have watched only Sins of the Father.  It looked and sounded fantastic.  Colors and effects seemed true to the original.  Grain is present, and the detail level was high.  I noticed a tiny amount of upscaled material for a couple of shots that obviously could not be recovered. 

I know these episodes very well and was looking for flaws, but any imperfections were minor.  Shots of Qo'nos look better than they ever have.    I'm not a great audiophile, but dialogue seemed crisp, and I heard background noises clearly, such as dripping water and footsteps on carpets.  If the whole series is like this, I shall be very happy.  If Star Wars were restored like this, I think most of use would be ecstatic.

Bonuses are very light.  There is a trailer for season one and a teaser promo, but as this is a sampler I didn't expect much more.

Did you listen to both the new 7.1 and the original 2.0?

The franchises I get nerdy about are so obscure that not even most nerds know about them.

Was the animated gif of Homer turning the light on and off included on the sampler?

Haven't been reading much off topic lately.  Hadn't read this thread for a couple of weeks.  Came back and...wow!  I'm glad Star Trek IV didn't feature sperm whales or we'd really have been in trouble.

So far, I've listened only to the 7.1 track, but I will listen to the other track at some point.

Unfortunately, it wasn't.

I'm watching the BD right now. I am absolutely blown away by the quality, the sharpness, the details, the colours ... I seriously hope I will live enough to see the original Star Wars trilogy in this quality

You will not. None of us will, except for a very old and dying Ziggy Stardust who will watch it through teary eyes as he remembers us all.

I hope he pours out an old school 40 in tribute to us.

I laughed at this. This should be a new meme, what Zig will outlive us to see.

Damn it!  I've been away so long that I missed the entire Star Trek IV humpback gay jokes.  Sigh...  Oh, wait, that was a Warblerism.  I need a Gafferism.

There is no lingerie in space…

C3PX said: Gaffer is like that hot girl in high school that you think you have a chance with even though she is way out of your league because she is sweet and not a stuck up bitch who pretends you don’t exist… then one day you spot her making out with some skinny twerp, only on second glance you realize it is the goth girl who always sits in the back of class; at that moment it dawns on you why she is never seen hanging off the arm of any of the jocks… and you realize, damn, she really is unobtainable after all. Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Ziggy, remember me as I am... filled with murderous rage.
