Top-rated Sci-Fi series now on Blu-ray!

I was a total fan of this show when it was on Fox, but evidentally Fox didn't think as much of the series. They couldn't find a place for it in their schedule, thus the ratings were not as good as hoped for. And now we have the Blu-ray of this short-lived series to enjoy and watch whenever we want. Joss Whedon (Marvel's The Avengers) produced this show from his heart, and created characters that are still real to us fans. Nathan Fillion (Castle) is the captain of a Firefly-class spaceship named Serenity and he and his crew will do anything legal or illegal to make a living. All the action-adventure a person could want, and a very good understory that sets us up for a thrilling climax each episode. Great addition to anyone's collection.

What's great about it: All 14 episodes plus three never-aired episodes.
What's not so great: This show is not on television anymore.
I would recommend this to a friend!

USS Enterprise is decommissioned.

After setting the bar pretty high with "Wrath of Kahn", this film starts out with the final scenes from that film, and then the Enterprise returns, with its crew to Earth. There life isn't as easy as hoped for by the crew members, and the Enterprise is decommissioned as a member of Starfleet. Spock's father confronts Kirk and says that there is evidence there is a life-form on the man-made Genesis planet. Having to battle Klingons and 'steal' the Enterprise, Kirk and his crew head for Planet Genesis to find out what is there.

Two Captains, one good story.

This was the 7th Star Trek movie to come to the theaters, and was overwhelmongly a hit with Trekkies. Captains Kirk and Picard share the screen in this 'time travel' story to catch a scientist who is prepared to harness enegy from a man-made planet at any cost. Picard and the new crew of the Enterprise have to pull out all the stops to prevent this from happening. William Shatner and Patrick Stewart reprise their roles as Captains of the Starship Enterprise. This was probably the best of the movies made exclusively for the movie theater.

Solid performance by the original cast.

I am a huge Star Trek fan of all of the series spinoffs as well as the Original series. This movie was very well received when it was released to theaters. When it came to DVD, it contained extra footage not seen in the theatrical release, and that was what made it a very boring film to watch. When the Blu-ray title was announced the first thing I looked at was the running time, and I found that they had not included the extended version on this release. On a grand scale the movie is an excuse to take us on a tour of the new version of the Enterprise, while the understory is about a lost satellite. If you are a fan of Star Trek, no collection would be complete without this film.

Perfect for the person who watches lots of movies.

I have a vast collection of DVD and Blu-ray titles, along with a ton of DVD-RW and DVD-R titles. I watch movies more than I watch television. I needed a Blu-ray player that can play anything I put in the tray, and this one fits the bill. Long time user of Sony products so it was a no-brainer when it came to replacing my Blu-ray player of another brand. The connection to wireless internet is quicker than any other player I have seen. And the set-up screen is the most simple for a non-tech geek like me.
