Tag: Star Trek

Vorerst kein extended Cut :/

startrek_blurayKürzlich sind mir die genauen Details zum DVD- und Blu-Ray-Release von Star Trek 11 über den Weg gelaufen.
Leider sieht es so aus, als plane man keine erweiterte Fassung, die sicherlich viele Fans erhofft hatten.

Die im Schnittraum geopferten Szenen werden zwar enthalten sein, jedoch nur als extern und separat abspielbare Schnipsel.
Schade eigentlich – es hätten sich sicher einige Abnehmer für eine “komplette” Fassung gefunden.

Das soll nicht heißen, das es niemals einen Recut geben wird – vielleicht überrascht man uns ja mit einer neuen Version, wenn sich alle schon die 0815-Ausgabe zugelegt haben… Wäre schade.

Hier nun die Features für Blu-Ray und DVD (beide ab 31. Dezember 2009 in Deutschland erhältlich):

The Romulan War

von am 01. Jul. 2009, unter News

Da werkelt man fleißig und überlegt sich eine spannende Geschichte in einer spannenden Epoche des Star-Trek-Universums, braucht ein bisschen länger und was ist: Man merkt man ist nicht alleine ;)

Voraussichtlich im Oktober diesen Jahres erscheint – zumindest auf englisch – Star Trek “The Romulan War” von Michael A. Martin.

Vorbestellen bei Amazon

Hier der Klappen-/Info-Text aus dem englischen Original:

STAR TREK: Enterprise – THE ROMULAN WAR: BENEATH THE RAPTOR’S WING
by Michael A. Martin
[trade paperback]

At the start of the twenty-second century unconditional war swept across the Earth. A war that engulfed the great and the small, the rich and the poor, giving no quarter. Each side strove for unconditional victory, and as battle built upon battle the living began to envy the dead.

Chastised by the cataclysm that they had unleashed, the governments of Earth banded together. Humanity vowed to put an end to war, and to strive for the betterment of every living creature. A united Earth created Starfleet, an interstellar agency, whose mission was to explore the cosmos, to come in peace for all mankind. A naïve wish, yet man persists in the belief that peace is the way. Banding together with other powers to form a Coalition of Planets, humanity hopes that the strength each can offer the other, will allow for peaceful exploration.

The rise of the Coalition strikes dread within the Romulan Star Empire. They feel the growing reach will cut them off from is rightfully theirs. But, the Romulans know that the alliance is fragile, that the correct strategy could turn allies into foes. Perfecting a way of remotely controlling Coalition ships and using them as weapons against each other, the Romulans hope to driving a wedge of suspicion and mistrust between these new allies.

One ship, one Starfleet captain uncovers this insidious plot, Jonathan Archer of the Enterprise. Determined not to lose what they have gained, out manned and out gunned, the captains of Starfleet stand tall vowing to defend every inch of Coalition space. The tide begins to turn. The Romulans now plan to strike at what they see as the heart of their problem. With nothing left to lose the Romulan Star Empire engages in all out war against humanity, determined once and for all to stop the human menace from spreading across the galaxy.

Wir sind gespannt auf diese Fiktion, wenden uns nun aber wieder unserer Story zu, die in einem Buch durchaus auch eine gute Figur machen würde ;)
