I have to be honest, that Star Destroyer was in the back of my mind the whole time I was writing that comment and I decided it was probably fine. I probably didn't need to check it again... You're right, that Star Destroyer is a bit too exaggerated, especially the way they've done the sides. I can let it pass by saying that no one ever claimed it was the exact same type of ship that we saw in A New Hope (which are definitely different to the ones that show up in Empire Strikes Back), but it does still bother me a bit I can let The Cage flashback slide. I'm not unreasonable!
It is. It’s just the art style. Some designs are considered different models in universe, like the AT-AT is an earlier model, but the star destroyer is just the show’s art style.
I should clarify. Each version is a Constitution class. But the configuration from 2265 to 2270 is THE Constitution class. I love the various designs - I play with the Eaglemoss Discoprise and I got the Mirror Warship ISS Defiant from DSC, too. Like the Volkswagen Beetle series. They all great Beetles. But there’s only one original Herbie style.
What the top Star Destroyer from ? If it's the cartoons it's probably why people either don't know about it or accept it as different. I love the updated Enterprise. About as good as anyone will ever get while also making it fit in a 21st century show.
The New jersey shows the design is not dated. It is perhaps a latter build than the 1701 , hence the changes?
I concur, it probably came after the TOS Connie and managed to survive and have it's own great adventures that were note worthy. Who wants to see stories about the USS New Jersey?
Its possible the SNW enterprise connie gets a refit like the new jersey. Buy maybe SNW will end up being a alternate reality. Who knows.
The SNW Enterprise isn’t going to change into the TOS Enterprise. They are 0% concerned with making their show look like the ‘60’s.
U.S.S. Virginia. Always hogging the spotlight from Kirk's Refit Enterprise. And with better barbecue served on board.
It was a 2 second long easter egg showing an ultra low detail model that stuck out like a sore thumb. I highly doubt CBS is going to run yet another series set on a Constitution class in the 23rd century. That slot is already taken. Unless you're talking about novels, comics, etc. Highly unlikely. We already saw shots from the cage showing that the "retro look" and the SNW look are one and the same. Don't bet on it. Again, they literally pulled shots from "The Cage". They're about to cross over with "Lower Decks", and Picard flat out showed the "Discoprise". Agreed. Especially when you put it between the NX-01 Refit and the Enterprise-A
dated…yeah. Just like the design of the NX-01 (either version) is dated, the Nebula Class is dated, the 1701-A, etc… are all dated compared to something like the Titan A, the new Intrepid or those Eschelon Class ships. But out of place, no. It fits in with the other ships just fine and the design holds up in HD just like it does in TOS-R and Enterprise S4.
I It's supposed to stand out. It's 114 years after STE and 135 years before TNG. So yeah it stands out as different which it should.
