Poll Are You Satisfied? (Season Finale Spoilers)
- Thread starter Akiraprise
- Start date
Yep...100% agree.
The producers/Witers have been VERY DISINGENUOUS (and they were all saying: "Hey, we're TOS fans too...trust us..iot all works out in the end...")
^^^
I have no issue with it being a reboot either. If the staff had just said this up front at the start of the series, I'd love the reveal they did, but after months of "No...really, it's the 'Prime Universe' TOS fan know and love..." No - in that context with rthe BS statements they've been making to TOS fans from day one, the reveal sucked.
And GOOD/MODERN effects can be done showing the ship in its Classic form (as both DS9 and ENT and even TOS Remastered have proved over the years) - but again, this production staff are just disingenuous in their treatment of TOS era fans.

What with the ridiculous turmoil that Mr. "Shiny Red Ball" Fuller created for lack of attention span, I'm satisfied that a season got made as well as it did.
YES YES YES! It was TOTALLY a TOS Enterprise for modern audiences. Perfect.
It was awful... I don't understand the why? The original design with updated textures would have been just fine. Any real difference between straight and swept back nacelles? Its like the Klingons. Why bother redesigning the race. It doesn't serve any purpose. Would work if Discovery wasn't trying so hard to be part of the same universe.
there is a great well of corn to draw fromIt felt a bit corny but maybe it was the fanboy in me giggling in joy.
It's great, I just hope it's 700m+!
I don't know how I feel about it. It's functional as an update that changed things while still being recognizable as the original Enterprise, but I'm disappointed that it brought zero new ideas to the table. That's the part that's fun about these space ship updates, is seeing all the fun things that new blood can think up to do with them. This has none of that enjoyment. It's dull.
Digested
Very happy however
I’d love to see a better cleaner render
(Man this effects house is frustrating, some shots look great, a lot more look like they were done for Babylon 5)
It does appear to be missing the bridge dome or that deck two dome
Hope that’s simply a rendering mistake
Need some hi res pics of that initial top view

Never understood why people wanted these huge ships... Space is all about keeping stuff small and lightweight. Enterprise was fine at 300 or so meters. Looks to me like they are pretty close to the same size but its hard to tell...
Same shape doesn’t mean same size
JJprise windows were the same size in comparison to their scale against the hull as the tos Connie
Well the windows are twice as big hence the ship being twice as big

Wut?
I didn't care if the Enterprise showed on the series. I like the show for itself.
What we did get though irked me. The pylons and feel of the ship were incongruous with "The Cage." We could chalk it up to refits, but why? Why from JJ-verse to "The Cage" to this to "Where No Man Has Gone Before"?
If anything, this further backs my suspicion that maybe something massive is going to happen later to change the history of this Prime Universe to look like what we knew it to be previously. Maybe a massive "discovery" that the way it was supposed to play out is different, or that required this Prime Universe to be altered to the Prime we knew.
Again, also good. Just someone fix those pylons, yeah? And what will Pike be wearing over there? Beige or blue?

modern spacecraft are small-ish (shuttle wasn't small and ISS isn't) just because of the price of putting things in orbit.
If you build in orbit from materials derived in space, asteroids or moons, then you most likely build heavy, big, and to last. Starfleet has always been more a naval analogy then an airforce. Analogy: if the US had went full in on Project Orion in the 60's, we might well have atomic space ships the size of nuclear subs out there, basically built not that differently.
Still don't care. -Lorca
Not totally, but yeah it works well enough

Yes, I'm satisfied with what we got on screen. Can't wait to see more next season! 
This was a valentine to the fans in every sense of the term.
