I always thought the NX 01 looked too advanced for its time. To me the Franklin looks a little less sleek than the NX 01, as Scotty would say "a bucket of bolts".Now in that poster Franklin is the Warp 4 ship. Yet it looks a bit more advanced than the NX-01--a Warp 5 ship....
That isn't the Jelly Fish, that is one of the Krall swam ships, you can see a Krall in the hallway below it.It really is, you can see the Jellyfish sitting on the Enterprise's saucer in that one.![]()
They look annoyingly alike then in that scale.
Gosh, well spotted!That isn't the Jelly Fish, that is one of the Krall swam ships, you can see a Krall in the hallway below it.
You're right! I thought the costumes were the same. They're still very similar, but I'll wait to see them "in action" before making any final judgements.Looks different to me.

By that argument, the Frankin should look more advanced than the enterprise D. 2016 vs 1987.Thats becuase they were making the show in 2001 not 1966.
So this was what spawned two spinoff threads.
Hrm, first "monkeying off," next "aping off," now "spawned".So this was what spawned two spinoff threads.
Just a little tidbit from my current neck of the woods;
The shooting budget for Star Trek Beyond in Dubai was $32 million dollars. The biggest ever for our little city! MI: GP had been the largest at $22 million, but our little Wagon Train to the Stars beat it all hollow!

I'd guess that a majority of the necessary equipment, apparatus, and services (not to mention extras) were contracted from local companies (no doubt with the assistance of folks from the Dubai Film and Television Commission.) While some favorite tools and toys may have been brought along from LA or Vancouver, I imagine it's simply not cost-effective to ship everything you'll need halfway around the world for a shoot of 7 to 10 days.How much of that goes to the city vs. how much is about the cost of getting all the equipment and whatnot over there?
