Frosty 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Has anyone seen the commericals yet? I saw them Monday evening. They're re-releasing Generations. This time around, they're providing an alternate ending, probably the one where Kirk does not die. Plus, I don't know whether the cut footage will be inserted into the film, or as 'extras', but I do know, there is a cut scene with Riker, Worf, and Data in sick bay that should not have been cut. It's classic Riker and Worf. BTW, A couple of years ago I managed to find all the Generations cut footage that leaked onto the net. Anyway, just thought I'd make a post, and see if anyone has seen the commercials, or is looking forward to the new release.. I know I'm looking forward to it. What I'm really looking forward to is a First Contact SE 2 DVD set, but the new Generations DVDs will suffice for now.. :huh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ktrek Posted September 8, 2004 The special edition has been delayed due to the packaging not having the right information. It will hopefully be just a minor delay! I'm looking forward to this cause I love Generations! When I first saw it in the theater I was not that impressed but over time and many viewings it has grown on me! :huh: Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frosty 0 Posted September 9, 2004 (edited) Alterego, Thanks for the PR info.. I sure hope there are more deleted scenes than the ones listed. IMHO, those are a fraction of the deleted scenes, there are some real good scenes that were cut.. I've got the videos on CD somewhere in my CD collection. Ktrek, I just saw the commercial again, I missed the date, but it seems like they said the 17th? Doesn't seem right, seeing how most DVDs and such are released on Tuesdays.. Maybe it was the 21st? I'll be on the lookout for the commercial again. I actually enjoyed the first time I saw Generations in the movie theater. Seeing the saucer section crash into the ground on the big screen was awesome. Yet, once I found the deleted scenes on the web, including a no Kirk death ending, I found myself not liking Generations as much. Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE Star Trek Fan. TOS, TNG, and ENT. :huh: Edited September 9, 2004 by Frosty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
