I wish I could get my hands on one of the helmets from the movie. Those things look awesome!

Congratulations on getting your thesis completed!

BA DUM TSS!

If you haven't bought it already, you've got 4-6 hours to pick it up before it goes back to $9.99!

New titles for the monthly $6.99 sale were posted today; Wing Commander is indeed among them. It will be available for $6.99 in HDX quality on Vudu until March 7, 2017.

Vudu's monthly $6.99 HDX sale won't start until Tuesday (2/7/17), but Wing Commander is slated to go on sale again. Should be at this price until March 7, 2017, as Vudu changes their $6.99 HDX monthly sales on the first Tuesday of every month. I'll update this thread to confirm, provided anyone...

Haha there's wooden models of them? Has anyone bought them to see what they're like?

Honestly, I would've bit to see what ended up getting shipped.

There was a book back in the 1980s called "Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise", and I'm 90-95% sure that it mentioned that the saucer could separate for emergency purposes, but the only way to reattach it was at a starbase.

So if they've lost the distribution rights, does that mean it suddenly won't be available for streaming (like on Vudu, FandangoNOW, Amazon Prime, etc.)?

I thought it was rather ho-hum. None of the new characters were likable enough and they all seemed cookie-cutter. I'm interested in seeing a sequel to see where they take it, but I don't think I'll ever watch this again outside of an Independence Day series marathon (if there ends up being...

Just to update this - the Wing Commander movie is on sale this month on Vudu for $6.99 in HDX.
