The entire remastered series is free on Paramount Plus. It is stunning how well this series holds up after 55 years. But the remastering is a mixed blessing. The budget for this show was not that high so the props in the series were designed to be seen on a 480 screen— not on a 1080p screen— in order to stay within that limited budget. It is similar to the morning news shows that had to upgrade their sets when the show went to 1080p because the scratches on the desks and the patches on the chairs that didn't show up at 480 were glaringly obvious at 1080.

I would imagine every TV station had to update its sets to accommodate the transition to HD. I used to work in local TV during the NTSC days and the sets were surprisingly grubby and scuffed. So much Formica!

Yes I just think people who watch the remastered version of a mid 1960s show like Star Trek need to understand that the props they used on the set did not look "cheesy" on a 480p TV set. There was no reason in 1967 to spend more $ on more "authentic looking" props when the viewer could not tell the difference on a 480p TV set . However even the props they used on ST when shown at 1080 are not all that distracting from the story and are still passable at 1080 resolution.

Amazon is going downhill and costing people when it comes to inconvenience, extra time, and money (returns take all) by having to replace damaged merchandise. I've had 8-10 orders arrive at my door as junk in the last few months.

Of course they weren't junk when ordered or picked; they were just turned into it by some lazy individual that thinks you can ship products in .001mil plastic bags regardless of size, weight, or fragility. I've also had items bent over to make them fit into a smaller package.

The total damage has been in the $250-$350 (minimum) range over 3-4 months. Of course these are probably the people don't want to work because the rest of us owe them a living, and they're "over employed" anyway.

I've had items replaced, only to find that they just repeat the process, and I get broken junk again.

The last box I got from amazon said something like "this is a lighter weight box" or something to that effect on the side. The translation is, Amazon is saving money on cheaper, less durable, easily damaged shipping containers while charging people more because Lil'Jeffy needs the cash I guess.

In comparison, I've had packages show up from London, Czech republic, etc. faster, cheaper, and much better protected. The London shipment was ordered on last Monday and delivered on Wednesday. The Czech order was delivered faster, cheaper, and better protected than Amazon's multiple efforts for the same product (broken both times).

I was agreeing with you until you started pompously shaming low wage Amazon workers.

So your HD-DVD player still works? I had two Toshiba HD players and both quit working over time with very little use. I recently looked for something to play the 20 or so HD-DVDs I have and it appears I am SOL. Nothing being made which will play them. What a shame.
LOL!! you could probably get those 2- HD-DVD on BR free somewhere.

Oh, I'm so ashamed. shake head

I don't judge people based on monetary standards, what kind of car they drive, or where they live. As most learn, income and/or earning a "low wage" means nothing in reality. Income, or "Financial success" is ultimately an ignorant and shallow way to judge people or determine someone's worth and value to society.

However, careless, uncaring, inattentive, deliberate and repeated stupid decision making, especially when packing fragile things in plastic bags means everything. These decisions are made when shipping; these decisions are not "mistakes". I don't appreciate receiving damaged goods, especially when they're time sensitive, irreplaceable, or because someone is too lazy to pack it properly and put it in a box. And yes, some of those decisions may have been made by "over minimum wage" managers telling the workers to save on shipping costs.

Bottom line is that if you don't like your job, then leave and find something you do like. Most of us have worked in jobs we didn't like, but doing a poor job on purpose because you don't like the work says nothing about the job, but it says everything about you.

Just received a SteelBook order today. Big dent on the front. Thrown into a poly bag with no protection. Don't they have enough data to modify SB shipping policy?

They just don't seem to care. I try to order a bunch of stuff, hoping it will get packaged better but that doesn't work anymore.
