In this
Digital Bits article, you'll find rumours about the DVD release date of
Superman Returns (Nov. 28; not announced officially) and, even more interesting, high definition Star Trek. That's at higher resolution than the post special effects master copies. How might they do this? By taking the original pre-effects film stock and recreating the old special effects to the same specs at a higher resolution. The purist in me objects, but the realist points out that it's akin to the first movie's DVD release, and less dramatic than the
Star Wars revamps.
