I have actually seem prelem designs for the new Enterprise.

It's pretty cool...but the spinners, and flames on the nacelles are a bit much...

Did the keep the undercarriage black lighting and the handlebar tassels they had on the early version I saw?

Don't forget the flames and smoke that shoots out of the back when they go to warp. I understand ILM is going for classic "Flash Gordon" motif.

The purple fuzzy dice over the viewscreen is the best part of the new design.
But the Confederate flag is so uncool. So are the welded shut shuttlebay doors.
 
Though First Mate Daisy Duke is definitely my favorite new character... that Robert-Blackman-Designed (tm) cutoff catsuit is just sooooo practical. ;)
 
The article implies that.
I can just visulize the ship being confronted by enemy vessels and suddenly going up by rotating the exhaust nacceles,confounding the enemy.Then rotating the nozzles again and taking the enemy from behind.



I noticed they never used 3-d in the films.All the battles were 2-d.This could be a retrospective correction by Abraham.Except in ST2 when Spock had to pint it out.

It seems my friend has been vindicated.

I will accept apologies.

:drool: :drool: :drool:

:wtf: No he hasn't. It's very obvious that any "rotating" is referring to the rotating caps on the front. They are unlikely to totally redesign one of the most iconic and enduring images in TV history beyond a TMP-style refit.

When we're all proved right and you and your friend wrong, can we have apologies too?
 
More nacelles! More is better!! It should have four... no wait! Eight! It should have 8 nacelles! And several deflector dishes, at least four.
 
Each nacelle should have two nacelles of its own... and each of them should have two nacelles... and so on and so on until it becomes an Escher-esque fractal nightmare that makes one's head explode in incomprehension.

Someone photoshop that up for us, will ya?
