I am still waiting for season 2.

The ships greyed out.

And the CGI in twister is still not as good to today's standards. Re-watching the Truman Show movie also shows this problem. My point is that if the show was finalized on film from the get go. We'd be getting the same CGI without question. That's what I want. If it still exists, use it. Just fix and smooth out the models.

Why are the nacelles on the NX01 on the S2 set wrongly coloured?

OMG this is great. This is what Season 1 should of been. They satisfied me from dropping the ship artwork in the poll choices. Gives me a bigger reason to not ignore season 2.

Twister was designed for the big screen and high resolution viewing... these TV shows were not. We have already seen new CGI models used for TNG, I'd hope to see more of the same for DS9.

What an improvement! Even though it reminds me a bit of the Babylon 5 cover designs, it's a huge step up from the preliminary artwork.

Looks great! For those in the UK who missed the pre-order price at Amazon the other day, S2 is up for pre-order at Sainsbury's Entertainment for £22.99.

Yes but the show was produced specifically for an American television network (UPN), so they rendered it at that bare minimum standard. It's interesting though that the Wiki page says it was produced in 1080p, but broadcast in 720p. But that doesn't seem likely. If they aren't releasing it in 1080p it would have to be that the original wasn't in that format.

Maybe even in the far reaches of the Delta Quadrant B'Elanna Torres can match paint.

I didn't get the sequels bit. They did do sequels. The Naked Now was a sequel to The Naked Time from TOS. And they repeatedly revisited Lore and Soong. And they kept revisiting the Klingon saga with Worf's Discommendation and Redemption. Those stories were sequels. And the last episode is a sequel to the first.

Yeah. Although George Lucas gets the credit for milking the merchandising cow, Gene Roddenberry had him beat by a decade.

Take that as a hint, boys and girls.

It was a great story. But when you think about it. Why would you make a probe that self destructs and sends to only one person. What would of happend if the probe was scanned by Romulans or other races that wouldn't of cared? And, they still die off. When Picard does... It was the only thing that got me bugged.

You could also use it as a weapon. It cut through the ship's defenses :P.

There were some tracks that skipped. Really bad hissing etc.

I agree that it should have had a sequel. One of my few complaints with TNG is that the stand-alone nature of the episode prevented some good character development. Picard should have been mentally messed up after this episode, but in the subsequent episodes he seems pretty much like Picard.

"we corrected a few glitches while remastering"...just curious, what were the glitches?

Because we get that when movies in the 90's are remastered. We are still getting the old CGI stuff from that. Those things no longer hold up either. Twister has some obvious CGI. People just want things as close to 100% as it was.

I love Ron Jones music so much. It be cool if someone would release his other shows he does. Like Family Guy and a personal want Ducktales.

He also rendered out the video:

Mind you, it wasn't 100% finished, as the JemBug fades away instead of exploding in debris... he finished it, but hasn't uploaded the finished video.

Awesome!

Mark Ward — Wed, 22 May 2013 03:18:36 -0000

Well actually it was 94/95. But I'm not bashing the original show, I'm just saying that if they are going to reproduce it to more than four times the original resolution it would be a really bad decision to leave in all of the original 1990's meshes.

I'm surprised anyone would disagree with that to be honest.

I'd love to have Peter Allan Fields (who co-wrote the episode) in a commentary as well, and perhaps Peter Lauritson who directed it. Peter Allan Fields also said the episode ran long and they had to take out seven minutes -- see http://en.memory-alpha.org/wik... -- so it might be a good one for the CBS folks to check into those deleted scenes, if they aren't already doing so.
