Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection

For anyone just starting their collection this set is perfect to start. For the Experienced Trek Geek this is great to have just to Save your Directors Cut DVDs or Hard to find DVD's that too you forever to find. I got this set opened it and watched every movie back to back and found myself feeling like a Kid again. Sometimes you just have to take a trip back in time and relive some of those old childhood memories and this set is a perfect way to do it. Its to cheap to NOT buy it for everyday use or just Buy it for a friend who you want to share your love of Star Trek with.

I bought this for my husband. He loved them and also the fact that there is a sit down with the captains of the old movies with the movies. That was interesting to watch.

I am very pleased with the selection I made as I have not been able to purchase these movies on DVD any where else. Shipping was really fast. I ordered them online and they came in the mail a few days later. I have ordered other movies online that I could not find and like this purchase, they always arrive in great condition and fast. I recommend these movies to any Star Trek (William Shatner) fan.

With the release of the new J.J. Abrams Star Trek film (2009), I have been wanting to watch as much old Star Trek as possible. Although I had watched a few reruns of the original series with my dad, I didn't fall in love with Star Trek until The Next Generation TV series came out. Then a few years ago I rented the old Star Trek movies and liked those as well. This DVD collection presents all six films in their original theatrical release. They all look great and are in widescreen format. These are not the director's cut versions of the films. Films 2, 3, 4, and 6 are the best. The first film, "The Motion Picture," was a little hard to get through, and the fifth film, directed by William Shatner, had promise but didn't quite come together. Its ending was a big disappointment. Each film has apparently been given new commentaries, which are for the most part quite good. Each disc also has new special features which are mostly worth watching as well. A seventh DVD presents a "Captain's Summit" one-hour special with William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, Patrick Stewart, and Jonathan Frakes. This special is certainly worth watching, but it has a few too many light-minded moments. Unfortunately, host Whoopi Goldberg has very little Star Trek knowledge (she didn't know there were six films), and there are other questions one wishes she had asked. Patrick Stewart and Leonard Nimoy are the most interesting in this interview. The seven DVD slim-pack cases are perfect, and there is a solid DVD box that they fit neatly into. One problem is that the plastic covering around the box chips easily. Mine was chipped when it was shipped, and probably should have been shipped in a box instead of a bubble envelope. I still can't believe the price I was able to get on this collection -- I got them while walmart.com had an incredible sale. Definitely worth more than I paid. I highly recommend it!

If you love the originial Star Trek Movies, you will love this collection set. Well worth the money and the set is amazing! Great value! It's digital remastered and so much better than watching it in its orginial form. Any Star Trek fan should add this to their collection!

I've wanted the entire set of Star Trek movies for some time, and this has certainly exceeded my expectations. The main menu on all of the movies is the same, giving a consistent feel to the set overall. The quality of picture and sound is excellent, and rivals the best quality DVD's on the market.

He really enjoyed these movies and was glad to see them all. Netflix only had 2 of the six so he was very happy

Great movie collection for awesome price! It also arrived about a week earlier than expected!!

Ok let me first say I am not the fan of Star Trek in my family my husband is. I bought this for him for christmas this year. I compared prices and looked at a few other retailers. Walmart had it the cheapest by $1.00 and they offered the free site to store shipping. It doesn't mention this in the listing but it does have the special disk of the conversation between the people who played the captain of the enterprise in each movie having a discussion about their role in the program and the whole thing. Its a great bonus for all star trek fans. My husband was estatic about it. All films are remastered and play great. Overall for what it is and who it was for its a great product. Would definately recommend to any fan of the program. Next year im getting him the Next Generation films/the one with wrath of khan set.

To start - I must say I am *NOT* a Trekkie geek - but I do know and enjoy the movies - I have always wanted to get the entire set but usually the have been too expensive - this this offer came up so I jumped - and sorry I did - The movies area all obioulsy newly edited as evidenced by the fact that all the movies in the set have the trailer for the new Star Trek 11 (best of them all) But when they created this set (and the matching set with movies 7-10 they left out numerous very small scenes. Not enough to care if you ahve never seen the movies before - but to avid fans the are very noticable. If you want the full version do not get this set
