BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Star Trek Blu-Ray and DVD Release Soon


Now comes news that Paramount Home Entertainment's Star Trek DVD and Blu-ray release will feature packaging that opens up an interactive tour of the famed starship. Variety reported:

Expected to be one of the biggest home entertainment releases of the fourth quarter after its $375 million theatrical run, J.J. Abrams' re-imagined Star Trek will make its debut Nov. 17 with all the expected extras on the two-disc DVD and three-disc Blu-ray release.

With the packaging feature dubbed "augmented reality," consumers will be able to hold their disc packaging in front of any standard webcam to unlock an interactive hologram on the computer screen, through which they can tour five cabins on the Enterprise, even shooting enemies from the ship's deck.

Users will have to log in to a Web site to access the feature, but they control the hologram by holding the disc packaging.

Don't for get to Visit Paramount Home Entertainment (PHE) will be taking Comic-Con attendees to the final frontier and beyond for out-of-this-world fun celebrating some of the year’s hottest films. Highlights at PHE's booth #3535 include: More info-PHE Comic Con Booth

You can get an idea how this works from an early version of the feature, which Paramount tried for the international theatrical release of the film, at Experience the Enterprise.com.

The discs will also feature deleted scenes, such as one with baby Spock and a sequence on the Klingon penal colony of Rura Penthe, with a look at Abrams' version of Klingons.

The STAR TREK DVD and Blu-ray will boast out-of-this-world special features to take viewers even further into the new universe of the rousing space adventure. The two-disc DVD and three-disc Blu-ray include in-depth explorations of the reimagining of the franchise, the phenomenal cast, the spectacularly real action sequences, the powerful score and the captivating aliens, commentary by J.J. Abrams, the writers and producers, a gag reel and a digital copy of the film. Additionally, the discs feature compelling deleted scenes that reveal a side story involving Nero with a first-ever look at Abrams’ version of the infamous warrior Klingons.

The STAR TREK Blu-ray boldly ventures beyond the final frontier with over three hours of sensational bonus footage including branching pods that allow for enhanced exploration, more fascinating features on the starships, planets, props, costumes and sound of STAR TREK, as well as a Starfleet Vessel Simulator and access to the latest NASA news about real-life space exploration via BD-Live.

The two-disc DVD and three-disc Blu-ray will also offer a home entertainment first: groundbreaking augmented reality technology. Using a webcam, a Star Trek visual cue will morph into a 3D holographic tour of the U.S.S. Enterprise on the screen, providing a unique immersive and interactive experience.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children.
