[QUOTE]Originally posted by The_Tom: [QB] [QUOTE]I'm well aware of the practicalities of CG, what I was trying to say is that the Fact Files doesn't "make stuff up" they get there information from somewhere and it is apparently the art & sfx departments of the respective shows. So if The Spector and the Rabin are so specifically named then in all likelyhood these names were used in the show, we just never saw them. [/QUOTE]No. No. No. We know Foundation Imaging did the VFX for that episode. We know they don't invent ship names when they're not going to be readable and when the script doesn't specify any. Okuda didn't include any info on these names when he compiled the Encylopedia, which is where one assumes official info would be highly likely to turn up. Basically, the evidence strongly suggests the FF invented stuff. Which basically undermines their reliability as a source of backstage info. Where before people assumed the stuff unique to the FF that it provided without citation had its roots backstage and was indeed "fact," we now have a fairly solid example of where we've caught them red-handed pulling stuff out of their butt (brown-handed?) to fipad their articles. It would appear my first posting in this thread was something of a self-fulfilling prophecy. [/QB][/QUOTE]
