Paramount+ 60th Anniversary Intro

Don't they "own" their own ship designs anyway?

Yep. Last time I checked, CBS /Paramount owns the TOS Enterprise, the TMP Enterprise, the Enterprise-D, the Defiant, the Voyager, the NX-01, the Discovery, the Discoprise, and the Athena designs, regardless of whether an artist not on their payroll created versions of them or not. And I’m not even saying that’s the case, because @vfxart hasn’t bothered to give us proof that that’s the case.

Paramount may be many things, but they are not legally stupid. There is no way, IMHO, that they are just going to steal someone else's intellectual property and use it without consent. Not only would that open them to lawsuits, but it would also set quite the precedent the next time they wanted to sue someone else for using their Star Trek IP. I just don't believe that happened in this case.

Paramount and Lucasfilm have used "off the shelf" (or just "available") meshes in the past at various levels. (I wasn't completely kidding when I asked if it was mine. I can tell it's not for various reasons.)

That said, links to the creators who are claiming the theft would be a more than reasonable first step.
 
Aren't the ships supposed to be flying at warp? If so, why aren't Voyager's nacelles in warp alignment? The animators of this sequence know nothing of Trek's essentials and as a True Fan it is my duty, obligation and pleasure to bitch about that and demand Kurtzman be fired for allowing this travesty to occur.

( ;) )
If King Terry had been in charge, etc etc
 
The San Francisco scene got cheers and claps too, still waiting for that to be uploaded separately on non-geoblocked youtube so I can share it with friends who still hesitate to watch...
I was actually trying to see whether the Transamerica Pyramid still exists in the 32nd century,
 
Damn, no Enterprise G
They don't want to remind us about the show people wanted them to spend the money on instead of Academy.

We could be watching Captain Seven right now.

Funny you should mention. Separating modern era Trek and legacy Trek doesn’t work for me; doing that’s wanting to pretend they’re separate things. They’re not.

CBS/Paramount, at no time, was ever seriously considering making Legacy. So even if they didn’t make SFA, you would still not have gotten your show.
