Picard – The Final Season’ DVD/Blu-ray Sets To Be Updated With Enhanced Visual FX Shot – TrekMovie.com

Earlier this month we reported on how fans had noticed an alternate visual effects shot in the newly released Star Trek: Picard final season DVD and Blu-ray sets (see TrekMovie review). Paramount Home Entertainment has now officially acknowledged this and announced plans to swap the shot for new sets. Picard sets to restore the enhanced Enterprise-D FX shot As we previously reported, the shot in question came in the episode “The Last Generation” featuring a flyby of the USS Enterprise. The sets released in North America featured a shot that was a bit different than the one that streams on Paramount+, instead using a shot that was streamed internationally on Prime Video. You can see a comparison of the two shots below (via YouTube video). Comparison shot from Knight Research on YouTube T...

The eighth issue of the relaunched Star Trek: Explorer magazine arrives in the USA on Tuesday. It includes several exclusive interviews including two regarding the final season of Star Trek: Picard. In one, Ed Speleers talks about that post-credit scene as well as the potential spinoff series, which showrunner Terry Matalas imagines as Star Trek: Legacy. We have an exclusive preview of what Speleers had to say. Ed Speleers talks Picard post-credit scene One of the surprises of the Star Trek: Picard series finale was a post-credit scene featuring newly minted ensign Jack Crusher (Ed Speleers) on the USS Enterprise-G getting an unexpected visit from Q (John de Lancie).

Picard’ Season 3 Blu-ray/DVD Sets Have An Alternate Visual Effect That Has Fans Buzzing – TrekMovie.com

Fans have been receiving their Star Trek: Picard – The Final Season disc sets and noticing that one of the visual effects shots is different than they remembered seeing on Paramount+. This has been the cause of some discussion and speculation but we have the real story. Different Flybys The shot in question is from early on in the season finale (“The Last Generation”). About 10 seconds of the Enterprise-D flyby is different than what was streamed on Paramount+ which started the confusion. However, it turns out there actually have always been two versions of this flyby. One flyby VFX shot had a more simple starfield and camera angles, and that is the one that streamed internationally on Prime Video back in April. However, on Paramount+ the Enterprise flyby shot was more of a clear homage...

Star Trek: Enterprise Andorian Imperial Guard Commander Thy’Lek Shran 1/6 Figure Manufacturer: EXO-6Price: $215Grade: A- Andorian blue Everyone has their favorite Star Trek series and their not-so-favorite Star Trek series. I’m a the-Saurian-Brandy-bottle-is-half-full kind of guy; I generally find something to like in each Trek series and focus on that rather than spending my life angrily fuming about what I don’t like. That said, there are some Trek shows I return to less often than others, and that affects my purchasing decisions where EXO-6’s excellent 12-inch action figures are concerned. EXO-6 is well into getting the entire Voyager bridge crew out, but I’m satisfied with having Seven of Nine represent that series. With Enterprise, I’m not even going to sample the bridge crew, and ...
