I've seen him pop up on Twitter a while ago, it's impressive though I'll personally settle for just one (well, two) Titanic VHS

Honestly I almost want to find the Laserdisc, DVD and 2D/3D Blu-ray for a complete set

Does anyone knows an alternative to Campbell's chicken gumbo condensed soup? I use it for a specific recipe, and can't seem to find a Canadian replacement...

That's something I like about being Québécois, there's plenty of stuff to watch here!

So how is not buying American going for you? in c/canada@lemmy.ca

I pirate most stuff anyway, and the rest I borrow it on physical media at the library, so they're not getting money anyway

I have a YouTube Premium family plan spread between me, my brothers and our mom, only reason why I bother

Another advantage that I just thought about : Shelf consistency

How to get DS9 and VOY on Blu-ray (startrek.website)
 

Since remastered versions of DS9 and VOY aren't happening any time soon, I think the next best thing should be a SD-BD release, kinda like how Discotek Media are doing with some old anime titles

The advantages :

  • Better video quality, since higher bitrate
  • Better audio quality compared to DVDs
  • More episodes per disc

What would you think about such a release?

TOS/TAS "best-of" recommendations (startrek.website)
 

This fall I'm planning to watch the Star Trek TOS movies with some friends on discord, as well as a few episodes of TOS/TAS to introduce the characters/setting/etc. So basically I'm searching for recommendations for episodes to watch

The episodes I'm already planning :

  • Space Seed (since we'll be watching Wrath of Khan)
  • The City on the Edge of Forever
  • Yesteryear

If you have more episodes recommendations, I'd love to hear about them 😁

The Star Trek 'Where Should I Start' guide in c/startrek@startrek.website

Love that list, although the first 10 movies are available in 4K, not just in HD. Same with Strange New Worlds.

Discovery has problems (I still like that show), but being woke it not one of them...
