I love that there's workbee shuttles flying around inside the Discovery, between decks.
Why not? I call it the Hollow Discovery Theory. Instead of whole decks, it's just a few rooms and corridors with big open spaces between. Thats why a boxy, volumous 750m ship only has a crew of 130.
The turbolift network detours through the mycelial network.
Those railings are beautiful
Is that Captain Nemo Kirk of the R.S.S. NAUTILUS?
That would be even more cool if the complete center part actually rotated instead of just the Captain's Chair.
That could possibly the one way to make Discovery as a ship interesting. Other than that, give me a Constitution class over its ugly boxness.
The turbolift amusement park ride occupies the same category in my mind as Deck 78 in TFF. Complete visual nonsense to be ignored and considered cool at the time the scene was produced. End of story. Ignore it because it makes no sense.
I've said before that the Enterprise-A was a rush job to get it ready for Kirk and Crew, so the engineers working on it used prefabricated and available (spare) bulkheads from some Starbase project.
They just hadn't got around to repainting the ID marks at that point.

That was from the production run of the series. Nacelle caps.
They looked the same to me!
Poor John Eaves worked so hard, too.
The opening recap was one of the most clever things Trek has done in years. It's sure to set off a tirade of "BUT CBS DOESN'T OWN THE RIGHTS TO THE VISUALS OF THE PREVIOUS SERIES" arguments.
If this forum wasn't entertaining enough before this episode aired it's about to get that way.

Well, that's rather ridiculous.It's in this thread...

Somewhere, Midnight's Edge are scrambling to excuse it somehow.
But it means they think Disco is a direct sequel to "The Cage" and prequel to TOS proper which IMHO makes very little sense. I'd almost have preferred it if they reshot the flashback footage with the new actors and Enterprise.
That's a weird thing with Discovery. It seems like they're trying to have their cake and eat it too, both changing the visuals and designs to large degrees, and yet throwing bones at fans such as the line about Pike asking them to remove the holographic displays on the Enterprise, etc.
