/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

It looks like there is an official 1080p Blu-ray. Is the fandom version better, or is it just that it came first?
Blu-ray is way better. I checked.
Yes, the new bluray version is the one to get. It is based on the original analog film which is high definition (heard it was closer to 2k ish). This is the same as the version that was available on HBO a few years back. The old DVD version was a cropped (and stretched) version of the tv broadcast version which was cropped from the original source. Anything based on that will look pretty bad.
The only thing that is lower resolution in the bluray version are the scenes where actors and CGI are mixed. They lost the original 3d models so there were no cheap and easy way to fix those.
I can also recommend the Lurkers Guide viewing order. There are also some tips on episodes that can potentially be skipped.
