[QUOTE]Originally posted by o2: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [qb]1. From what I've heard, the "first disk coming around the end of this year" is simply a test disk with four episodes chosen for whatever attributes they might have for the HD process (i.e. VFX-heavy eps, etc.). And I have no idea if it's coming at the end of the year or not.[/qb] You are right, the first disc is only for test purposed, mayby similar to this HD-DVD sample disc they produced three or four years ago. I'm pretty sure that this test disc will [b]not[/b] be VFX-heavy out of budget reasons. [qb]2. If TNG-HD happens [i]at all[/i], every VFX shot will most likely be replaced with updated effects. This includes model shots, space shots, phaser/transporter/etc. effects, even effects in normal scenes such as computer displays, beams fired from hand phasers/disruptors, etc. This will be a nightmare to remaster, which is why it hasn't been done yet.[/qb] My point is: They don't have to do all the space shots again, because they are already available in goog quality. Regarding the laser beams, etc. this has to be done again. [qb]3. That link from dvdtown is three years old. At the time, the OP seemed to think remastering TNG would be "easy." Obviously he was wrong.[/qb] Time will see... [qb]4. The registry of the Biko is the same registry as the Cochrane from "The Drumhead," since it's the same shot reused, but with a planet in the background instead.[/qb] Where is this name 'Cochrane' comming from? It was not mentioned on the any episode. But yes, it is the same shoot. Would be nice to see the reg finally clear and crisp. [qb]5. Because of time constraints, don't be surprised to see one or two new shots of a CGI Enterprise-D alongside a CGI Excelsior being reused in every shot just like it was originally done with the models. [/qb] Until the official announcement of CBS we can only speculate if they use CGI or remaster the original film material. [/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
