Sweet!

If it was shot on 16mm film it can be dramatically improved. Many prime time shows are shot on 16mm and they look very good.

Not as good as 35mm, or digital capture like the red one system but a marked improvement nonetheless.

Blasphemous.

I hear a rumor we'll be seeing 4K 3DTV's at CES. So, we'll then be needing a new Blu-Ray standard for 2D. Also, for Passive 3D that does half resolution, this can get us back on track for full resolution 3DBD. 1080 x 1920

Great sample of the conversion on EW:

Looks impressive! Of course it will still be in 4x3 aspect.

We have known that all along. Yeah, I'd prefer it in 16x9, but I'll take it.

 

[John Kotches]

Considering most seasons were presented in 4:3 this is preserving the original presentation.

A couple of the later seasons might have been presented in 16:9, although i am not certain of that.

Pretty sure they were all 4:3.

And they maintained the 4:3 with The Original Series Blu-rays as well.

[teachsac]

Yeap. They were all 4:3 aspect ratio.

[navychop]

Scott Bakula.

I know I will probably be assimulated and buy the sets. I am not planning on rushing out and buying the sampler, but when season 1 comes out I will have my order ready.
