New Star Trek DVD Out November 17

This has been quite a wild ride. After five years without any Star Trek whatsoever, we are now primed for the release of the Star Trek (2009) DVD in just a few weeks. And, obviously, I am pretty excited.

Among the more interesting elements that the new DVD (and Blu-Ray) will possess will be several deleted scenes, including some more footage of Kirk with the Orion girl, as well as J.J.'s feature commentary. I am also hearing that Paramount is prepping the film for a run at some Oscars, though, honestly, I am not sure where they are heading with that.

I mean, as much as I loved the movie, I don't really think that Star Trek is Oscar worthy except maybe for the special effects. You can pre-order the DVD on Amazon right now.

I love Star Trek

I love Star Trek. Okay, I admit that that statement may make me a little bit dorky but I am prepared to accept it. Sure my Star Trek fever had been dieing down after Star Trek: Nemesis sucked the last breaths of life out of my Trekkieness, and I gave up being a Trekkie for a while. But, once J.J. Abrams got his hands on the USS Enterprise I knew Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and friends were coming back in a big way.

I have seen the movie three times and I am totally stoked about the DVD release in the fall. I am hearing great things about the features that the DVD will have and I can't say that I have ever been more excited for a Star Trek DVD release.

If you are just as excited as me leave a comment!
