- REVIEW: Infoquake by David Louis Edelman »
Star Trek (the original series) will be getting a Lucas-like CGI makeover.
Updates include a computer-generated Enterprise; CGI upgrades for battle sequences, ship exteriors, galaxy shots and landscapes; and a re-recorded opening score with a remastered voice-over. Each episode is also being converted to high-deinition format for those who wish to broadcast in HD. [TVology 101 has more.]
All I know is that if Paramount goes all Lucas on it and they make it so that Evil Kirk shoots first, JP is gonna be really pissed off. On the bright side, at least now he'll be able to see "Spock's Brain" in HD, the way it was meant to be seen.
Edit: fixed broken link to TVology101.

I'm probably in the minority, but I don't think these changes are extensive enough.
