I understand that there are concept sketches and so on on this dvd of starships. Anyone has caps?

Well, see, Best Buy doesn't open for another hour ...

... and I'll be there when it does, or shortly thereafter.

Sadly, my comp doesn't have a DVD drive, so ...

NO CAPS FOR YOU!

I�m guessing what you�re telling me is that I shouldn�t be such a greedy bastard and buy it myself and stop troubling all you nice people?

Sadly, my computer can�t cap from dvd�s...I�ve tried, just doesn�t work, it chrashed when I tried installing powerdvd..

Download HyperSnap, search for a

serial number

keygen

to kill the watermarks, and get cappin'.

Hey, thanks for the tip! I�ll try that. So, is the program safe? I mean, it won�t conflict with other programs causing problems with the computer?

Posted by Cartman (Member # 256) on January 26, 2004 11:52 PM:

Don't worry, it isn't anywhere near as treacherous as PowerDVD in that regard. B)

Good!

Well I'm not sure where you are getting this info on conceppt sketches of starships on this dvd, just skimmed the special features (disc 2) and the only thing I found was sketches from the storyboard of the movie and not of any specific designs - not that there were any new ships featured in the movie anyway.

Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on January 27, 2004 08:28 AM:

Futurama,

Actually, one of the featurettes has sketches of ships from the proposed "Kirk & Spock: The Academy Days" movie.

Starship Freak,

Actually, I just meant "I don't have a DVD scanner, so I can't help you, but I thought I'd rub it in your face that I have the DVD." I'm mean like that.

Snay,

Not sure where that section is. I can make caps if you can point me in the right direction.

This is what the proposed Starfleet Academy movie's ship would have looked like. An interesting fact to note is that it is called the U.S.S. Enterprise, meaning that the producers never had an issue with there being one before the NCC-1701, even long before the NX-01 was conceived.

BTW, this cap was done by Tosk of the TrekBBS forum.

I feel chunks coming up.

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on January 27, 2004 09:28 AM:

That's kind of creepy how, from the side, the shape looks almost identical to the ENT Ent.

Posted by Lee (Member # 393) on January 27, 2004 10:06 AM:

Yes. But given the components, if you put the nacelles below the saucer-line, you don't get an Akira - you get a Centaur!

Posted by SoundEffect (Member # 926) on January 27, 2004 11:34 AM:

Anyone else notice that Disc 2 has a picture on the front that is upside down compared to the text, and that not only is it upside down but it depicts the Enterprise-B in drydock and has nothing to do with Trek VI!!??

I guess it's fair play since Generations did substitute the Enterprise-B by mistakenly showing the Excelsior from Trek VI at warp...

Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on January 27, 2004 11:41 AM:

Not mistakenly. Money-savingly. [Smile]

Snay: Oh, now I understand, it�s like "ha, ha, I have something you don�t!" (add small kids singing this, and you get the idea!)

And yeah, that pic was what I had heard about, anymore? or bigger?

Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on January 27, 2004 06:20 PM:

I am so glad they didn't go with the Academy idea.

What was going to happen anyway - where the TOS crew going to be in the movie AT ALL!?!

Posted by Hunter (Member # 611) on January 27, 2004 06:31 PM:

Spock and Kirk where going to be in it at the start in a framing scene for a flashback to their first meeting at the acadmey. At least thats what I've heard.

Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on January 29, 2004 09:08 AM:

Yep. Imagine! We coulda had the Star Wars prequels way before Lucas!

Posted by Futurama Guy (Member # 968) on January 30, 2004 12:19 AM:

The whole movie was to have been a 'flashback'. With the same names only the actors have been changed.

Posted by Harry (Member # 265) on January 30, 2004 02:13 AM:

So who design that ship? It's uncanny that it looks so much like the NX-01 [Frown]

Although you could also claim it looks like the Larson...

Surely you mean the Loknar?
