  • They were shot on negative 35mm film, and edited on tape in that aspect ratio.

    Only some odd scenes and shots were captured on tape, but it was mostly film. They won't need to upscale any live scenes, but they would have to work on rendering all the digital effects and blue screen shots for example. As it was only ever edited on tape, it's unlikely that the digital effects could be ever rendered or upscaled, it would probably need to be entirely reworked from scratch.

    Very daunting task. Although, they did it for TNG. ¯(ツ)

    Edit: Someone pointed out the obvious in a reply. Yes, of course they will need to be scanned for a better resolution scan. I already pointed out it's on film, and even mentioned why it's not just that simple. (Hence the digital effects needing to be redone).

  • It was indeed that, I'm guessing the missing mass of both of them must have been stored in the buffer. :)

    Really good acting for Tuvix, must have been hard to only have one season as reference for the actor to mimic and merge both their behaviours and personalities.

  • Only watched that episode again yesterday, I did enjoy it. It was pretty cute that they both felt no shame for it naturally happening. But I feel they lost an opportunity to make something more happen as a consequence of travelling such speeds. Could have been a little cooler! :)

    I've just watched Tuvix and it hurts to ignore how they produced two individuals with their memory intact and from DNA that surely is incomplete. I have to suspend my beliefs of course, it is a show I want to enjoy.

    Though, I was very stoned and tired and probably missed someone's psuedo science star trek explanation.

  • Being in the UK no one believed me when I was concerned at school after hearing about 9/11. My grandad was in there, and it took us a whole day to get a hold of him to find out if he got out in time... 9 year old me hearing on the radio coming back from swimming after a trip at school that the Twin Towers got hit, I remember turning thinking I misheard it to ask my teacher left to me in the coach "My grandad works in there".

    Her eyes opened wide. I got collected early from school by my crying mother early. Then I understood and got worried. No one at my school helped calm me, thankfully I must have looked so clueless and confused anyway. I was an odd kid so no one probably cared or noticed.

    Odd day. Don't really need to explain much else.

    So in answer to the comments on here saying kids don't remember, of course they do! We didn't just start consciousness and wake up at age 10 or whatever.

    You're definitely right, it can affect second-hand, even if the child didn't directly understand.

  • Good on you man. It's critical to work somewhere that respects people for their skills and work ethic. Not arbitrary expectations.

    Similar situation myself.

    Some places will understand. Many don't. I'll be either brutally honest in a interview or I'll set those boundaries.

  • I guess I'll be boiling the whole lake then... Don't wanna get amoebas up my bum.

    Edit: Bit weird several people need to correct this joke when it's explained only above how they entered the brain. My comment indicates I wouldn't be putting my head under water because of it.

    Damn.
