It's probably going to be more like the director's cut of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, where all they touched were the space effects and the backgrounds. They also cleaned up the editing in the movie where it's actually a lot easier to sit through now, but that's not happening here. They're definitely not going to be adding shit (Han meeting Jabba in ANH) or drastically changing shit (Han shooting first in ANH, or replacing the Emperor and changing the dialogue between him and Vader in ESB).

Everyone needs to see the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode where Sisko, Dax and O'Brien go back in time to the space station over ridden with Tribbles and actually interact with the Kirk, Spock and Bones. It's so awesome.

I think it's called little green men.

There was a conversation Worf had briefly about the way his race looked more human and prefered not to explain why. This was later cleared up in an episode from Enterprise where the virus started and they would have to endure an era or two before they get their features back.

Actually I think it's called "Trials and Tribblations". And yes, it is indeed cool as shit.

This shit is stupid, pointless, and a waste of time/money. The charm of the show is how totally 60's it is. Leave it be, you assholes.

Well, at least the original original episodes are on DVD, untouched.

Like I said, stupid and pointless. The new effects/cg looks completely out of place with the same old primitive (yet charming) looking sets.

I'm not Star Trek nut or purist or anything, I just think doing this is a waste of time.

I guess that's not as terrible as I thought it would be. But I gotta go with my boy Dole on this one. The thing that made the original series so great was it's campy, b-movie esque style. This really didn't need to be done, and the idea that this will bring in a "new generation" of fans is highly illogical.
