[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] The ILM approach goes for form over function because they are going for a sense of "wow" that can rarely stem from the thought out functionality Probert is talking about. It's hundreds of years in the future- not everything should be obvious in form and function. In many ways, TMP-STVI look less advanced than they should- particularly once Meyer started his "submarine" leanings in TWOK. A blend of the two ideas is best I think Spacedock is cool as hell- waaaay better than that frail drydock structure they've re-used [i]ad naseum[/i]. Like Andrew, I love Spacedock....except it's too-small doors- [i]that[/i] is just assinine. ILM's approach is that not every aspect of far futuristic stuff designed (at least in part) by aliens would be recognizable, nor [i]should[/i] it be explained away at the expense of/in place of -story. I hate to say it, but if Probert designed Spacedock, it would probably look like ass. Functional as hell, but ugly as sin anyway. look at the Office Complex /Regula as an example- it looks [i]low tech[/i]. It looks like a 1970's building in space- all it needs is plastic plants in the lobby. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
