And I agree with you. TMP is the ultimate version of the Enterprise. But, just for looks, I think that 1701-B almost gives her a run for her money!

I openly despised the Enterprise C when I first saw her, but the design has grown on me.

TPTB made some changes to the Enterprise E inbetween movies, there is hope for the most resent incarnation yet.

I would really like to see a small redesign take place. I really think that the scaling issues with the exterior detail need to be addressed, which would lead to a final "official" size. The dorsal and pylons should be moved forward a bit and the pylons given less of a curve. That would make the exterior just bloody great IMHO.

Just a few cosmetic changes, similar to those given the E between Insurrection and Nemesis, as you say. They don't even need to be addressed in script or dialogue.

And then I watched the flyby...sigh. I am SUCH a total geek.

AFAIC, it was a cost-saving measure that the general audience wouldn't have noticed or cared about.

No one on this board would constitute the "general audience." Therefore, I stand by what I wrote.

I'll agree the NuEnterprise is a grower.

But nothing will ever, ever come close to the TMP Enterprise Refit. Simply perfect. I totally believed she was real.

Scotty and Kirks flyby is the the closest you are ever going to get to Starship Porn.

Agree on all that you have stated here.

Hmm. The Titan rising scene. Gotta admit that I completely forgot to hate the Nu'prise for that one shot. It was a shameless riff on the Mutara Nebula scene from TWOK, but damn it still worked. Even for me.

stupid fungus. get off my toes! arrrgh.

It is a fungus, one requiring treatment.

My feelings for all the Enterprise incarnations has ranged from it's OK to it's great. Now, for the first time ever I feel a design sucks. It does appear, IMO, simply 'cinematic' as opposed to 'realistic'.

That was how I always felt about the Enterprise D. That design never grew on me it is the only Enterprise model that I do not own a model of and I celebrated its destruction in Generations.

I agree insofar as the D is concerned. Never owned a model of it, never will. Only version of the Enterprise I call "it" instead of "she."

Large brightly colored orange mushrooms have suddenly appeared in my yard. Are they nuStarships?
