DS9 and Voyager on the Big Screen?

This isn't a post discussing the possibility of why there weren't any movies for DS9 and Voyager instead, this post is just to ask what visual apects of each series would have to or appear different if they were a movie done for them?

We saw that when they did Genertions there was an obvious difference on how the Enterprise looked inside and out, how the sets were made to look and the way the characters appeared on the big screen. If a movie was done for DS9 and Voyager what changes would have to be made to make them more visually appealing for the big screen?

For example Voyagers sets, would they be altered in anyway, as Neelix is the most alien looking and if we had Kazon or any other race, how would they look on the big screen. Same for DS9 sets like the Promenade and Ops.

What do you think, how would they look?
 
I would imagine Voyager getting a major refit after working 7 years non-stop. That would reason to freshen things up. Its always good to see better sets for movies, and I kind of expect it.

As for DS9, perhaps there is more Federation tech integrated. There is no need to keep all that Cardassian tech, now that it is purely a Federation controlled station.
 
I think we'd see a bigger Promenade with more stores and more wares and signs everywhere. There would be shops on the inner part of the second floor as well, and we'd see it stretch all the way around instead of the 1/3 circle we saw. There could have been a lot more there we never saw...Deltan "massage" parlor, Andorian martial-arts school, Vulcan logic academy, mysterious antique shop with cursed trinkets from across the galaxy, etc

There would be large industrial machines in larger ore processing bays and cargo bays stretched far packed with crates. There may also be a massive fusion generator bay, not a control center like engineering on the Enterprise but like the one on Galactica. Large weird Cardassian computer core too. Oh, and the work-bee bays and Cardassian work-bees or Federation replacements. ...Larger prisoner holding-facilities and interrogation rooms, and smaller quarters for Bajoran slaves...or larger bunk rooms for communities of them. Offices too for docking and trade, research, and manufacturing administration. And a large Cardassian public sauna and bathhouse. There was also a large disgusting sewage plant in one of the DS9 books - I think the first of the Millennium Trilogy.
