Will the new enterprise be larger than the TOS?

Yeah, the whole dislike of curved nacelle pylons is a head-scratcher for me.
So, how is it more acceptable to have an abrupt 90 degree l-shaped pylon, but not one with a gentle curve to it?
The Excelsior has the l-shaped pylon, as does the Enterprise C.
Make mine Sumatra, with a dash of Half-and-Half.
It's not - the L shaped ones look bad too imo.
Heck, it's just a completely subjective opinion, not any kind of exact science or anything. I wouldn't get too bent out of shape over it if I was you.
Hey, wait a tick...
Would you please check out the TOS Enterprise/NuTrek Enterprise comparison in post 5?

Look at the bridge domes... Assuming that they both have the same diameter (although I very much guess that the nuTrek Enterprise's bridge is even bigger than the TOS Enterprise's), then the primary hull of the nuTrek Enterprise must be MUCH bigger than the TOS Enterprise's!!!

That's why I've been saying the NU-ENTERPRISE is much ''BIGGER'' then TOS Version, it has ''GOT'' to be for the shape of this ship to make sense!
Are you saying that in this alternate timeline, they've found a way to warp space by brewing a solution of barley and hops?
Good God, man! The market in Dilithium must have fallen through the floor. No more bugging the Hulkans!
Sorry if I stated - in your eyes - something so bleeding obvious. I simply didn't follow all your posts.
^ No prob!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/CaptApril/Comparisonfinal.jpg I think this NU ship ''will' be Longer & bigger then the Original, just look at this ^ there is no way the NU-ENT is going to be the same size ( Length, anyway) the O-ENT. And if it is the same size as the O-ENT, then ''SOME''body must have been smokin some Mighty Powerful STUFF! Oh, and did anybody monkey around with the O-ENT's nacelles? it looks like they have been shortend!?

The dome of the bridge seems to be transparent, doesn't it? Somehow it reminds me of the beginning of 'The Cage'.

^ Is it my imagination, or is that somebody looking out of the dome? DANG! how ''SMALL'' is this ship?

The shadow seems to be too big to be a man or a woman, compared to the windows at the base of the bridge dome.
^Maybe it's one ''O'' them ''Fish-eye'' dome's? so everything is all Wibly-Wobly?Is it my imagination, or is that somebody looking out of the dome?

Wow! The bridge is ''MUCH'' smaller on the outside, then it is on the INSIDE!

It's the thought... or rather the idea... that counts.
^Oh, why yes of course it is!
I just went through my collection of nuTrek pictures and stumbles over two photos in particular... one of the earlier publicity shots with the U.S.S. Enterprise crew (sans Spock) on the bridge, gathering around McCoy, with what seems to be a window in the background, and another one with Spock standing in front of another wide (and I mean wide!) window... these seem to be the three windows on the bottom of the bridge dome.
