LR's THE BLU-ROOM: Trekkers Beaming with Season 1 BD Live News!!!

Fans of 'Star Trek' new and old, if you have the blu-ray set of season one of the original series, there is some new BD-Live content available this weekend. On CBS-BDLive.com you will be able to access roundtable discussions with special effects producers Mike and Denise Okuda, Dave Rossi and Neil Wray. I posted this news because I was made aware of it by the good folks that provide me with blu-ray and dvd titles for review, plus Rossi, Wray and the Okudas are not only fascinating people, but true 'Star Trek' fans who have done something spectacular with the recent blu-ray release of season one. The interviews and audio commentaries they provide on the blu-ray set are not only entertaining, but an insightful look into the history of the 'Star Trek' universe.  Season two will be available this fall, but you can read my original review of season one HERE. I strongly urge you to pick this up because I consider it to be the home video title of the year.







Despite my mixed feelings for the new 'Star Trek' film, I'm grateful it was made because it provided these people with the opportunity to release such a spectacular blu-ray set. You don't have to be a 'Star Trek' fan or own a blu-ray player with BD-Live capability to appreciate the time and effort that went into this near flawless presentation. This is how all material should be archived, remastered and presented, not just television, but films as well.
