Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection [ABC]

Paramount Home Entertainment will release Star Trek: The Original Motion Picture Collection on US Blu-ray Disc on 12th May 2009. The six films have been digitally remastered in high definition with new 7.1 Dolby TrueHD audio and will be presented in their original theatrical versions only, with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan having been particularly scrubbed up for its HD debut in a manner, according to TrekMovie, similar to that of Paramount's recent The Godfather release. The vast majority of extras from the SD two-disc releases of the films will be present, with the exception of the commentary and three featurettes from the Director's Cut of Star Trek: The Motion Picture and the original text commentaries for all six films, although the latter seem to have been replaced with the "Library Computer" option, which will present you with trivia at any point in the film you wish.

In addition to the films, there's a seventh disc included called The Captain's Table. This will be a 70 minute round-table chat presented by Whoopi Goldberg in which William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy Patrick Stewart and Jonathan Frakes will talk "candidly" about their time on Star Trek. Quite what the latter two are doing on a set devoted to The Original Series is open to debate, but there you go.

The films will be presented 1080p high definition with English 7.1 Dolby TrueHD, French and Spanish audio and English, English SDH, French, Spanish & Portuguese subtitles, and will retail at $104.99. They will be packaged in amaray thin packs with a slipcase.
