To what, using 12" action figures to write stories?

I mean, those Exo figures are pretty detailed.

 

[fireproof78]

I think billions of Trek fans would disagree.

He will be inspired by Gene's Vision and combine it with the brilliance of William Shakespeare and elevate both of them into something never seen before on tv. A fusion of canon and originality and risk taking that knows how to reach people all across the globe and make them, for the first time see the true potential in Star Trek. In what it has been and can be and will be.

I had fun with Season 3 of PIC, and even I acknowledge it's a giant Pee-Wee's Playhouse full of animatronic TNG mannequins.

I found it to be an eyerolling slog.

Surely everyone got misty eyed seeing the old crew on the Enterprise-D again. All at their stations just like in the good ole days

Who doesn't love characters having no development or advancement in 20 years?

At least I have seasons 1 and 2.

There were a few good moments. And I’m usually positive. But it generally sucked monkey balls.

Yes, Jason. Monkey balls.

I enjoyed it in the sense that it's always fun to see these characters just interact and have adventures, that's true even in bad episodes of TNG. The chemistry between these characters always makes for fun viewing. However, that's really all Picard season three had going for it -- the chemistry and the nostalgia. The story itself was seriously lacking.

The Fleet Museum was the pinnacle of the season.

So, you're one of the ones left who thinks Kurtzman can learn?

I said I would hope, that’s not the same as me thinking he can.

Honestly... How would S31 have been if that was Tarantino?

Infinitely better, but that’s only because that’s how bad S31 was. Admittedly that’s a low bar. If Tarantino actually did his film with Chris Pine, best I could hope for is a movie that ranks right in the middle with the films, maybe just below BEYOND.

I’m not really precious about Star Trek films, so he can be as iconoclastic as he wants for all I care. Give Bernd Schneider a heart attack for all I care.

Comment on a YouTube video about the comparative sizes of the SNW and TOS Enterprises and one that makes perfect sense given how Doug Drexler upscaled the TOS Connie for the viewscreen graphic seen in "In A Mirror Darkly, Part II(ENT)."

Doug Drexler did a deckplan of he USS Defiant for the Enterprise season 4 , he scaled that up to the 450 meter scale. It seems to all about fitting the shuttle hanger is a space allowing for the pylon struts to meet the warp core in a direct line.

the corridor heights are also based on the set heights

Why do people try to insist the 1701 is smaller than it actually is? Is it some kind of form of modesty? Does the ship being over 400 meters instead of 200 somehow ruin anything?

Their head canon.

 

[cooleddie74]

Hell, the shuttlecraft and size of the hangar deck alone tell us the TOS ship can't be 948 feet long.

 

[MakeshiftPython]

It always bugged me how TFF’s hangar deck set made it look so small whereas TMP looked big enough to carry half a dozen shuttles or more.

I truly don't know.
