Spoilers The new (massive spoiler) ship!

[Tuskin38]

I wish they would cut back on the show voice actors. But they bring in the money, so oh well.

To be fair to STO, it came along at a time when it honestly looked like Trek on TV/in movies was dead forever.

Eh? It came out the year after Trek XI was released in theatres, so even if TV Trek's status at the time looked bleak, we knew Trek had a future in the movies.

 

[Enterprise1701]

Yeah, when I saw the Shenzhou set, my first thought was they'd based it heavily of the Kelvin. I just miss those random-ass antennae and cables the Kelvin bridge had everywhere. And crewman wearing headsets with mics (and all the cool augmentations we saw on early Discovery season 1 crewpersons, there were people wired into their consoles!)

EDIT: Also there's an interview somewhere where they openly say the Section 31 ships were based on the Vengeance from Into Darkness (not that there could be any doubt)

I wish the Section 31 ship recently glimpsed in Lower Decks 3.08 had a black hull hue to thematically match the Vengeance and NCIA-93, heh.

It looked dark to me. Not as a dark as Discovery's S31 ships, but it was dark, it also had blue bussards like the DSC ships.

Wasn't there a black Defiant class ship in one of the Shatner novels? The Return maybe?

But not in the original universe (I won't reignite the Prime/canon debate). At the time, that universe was considered closed for business in TV/film.

Yep, the Monitor, which was code-named "Enterprise" for the climax of the novel, since there wasn't a real one available.

Then you should have specified as much in your prior post.

 

[IRW Bloodwing]

I would have thought that was clear from the context, but oh well. I'll try to be more specific next time.

If F gets destroyed then G better look like this... https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/m...ision/latest?cb=20090910131646&path-prefix=en

Wiki pics don't work for others than yourself.

Hopefully Enterprise F is the last.

 

[NCC-73515]

No, that looks too much like reductionist landscape

OK, i'm talking about the Enterprise G from here.

The G from where?

They offhand-referenced a current Enterprise in Disco S4, so... long way to go.

They did? I haven't seen S4 yet...what was the reference?

Damn...

Well, can't have it all.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I have seen the 4th season and there is no Enterprise reference that I can recall.

 

[Kor]

The reference to the Enterprise is definitely there, in....

Spoiler: Disco S4

...the episode "Stormy Weather."
Saru says, "Enterprise noted heated plasma. Voyager charted ionized particles."

Wasn't that a reference to the Enterprise-D and Janeway's Voyager, respectively? Not their 32nd century equivalents?
