[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: As someone at SSM pointed out, the ship was designed by Abrams.[/QUOTE]Sorry, but that can't be right. Abrams is a film director, not a starship designer. Undoubtedly this is just more hearsay from Abrams-haters. This ship has John Eaves written all over it, from the holes in the saucer to the clearly 24th century design. While Eaves himself is a very nice guy, his ship designs all tend to look the same no matter what time period they are supposed to be from. Do I like this ship? Well, no, not really. I didn't like the nuEnterprise either. Am I going to let it detract from my enjoyment of the movie? Not at all. [/qb][/QUOTE]No, the SSM guy wrote on how the director is ultimately the one that says what a ship should and will look like- artists take direction from him and make changes at his say so. Even great designs get rejected in favor of stuff like a silver akira with the nacelles up or nacelles or a ship that transforms into a giant deathray whatthehellever other silly notion. Check out Sternbach's lovely first Voyager design for example...and we got that football with the tiny flapping nacelles instead! And we know it was Abrams himself that decided the Cloverprise would be larger than the Soverign just to make "his" ship the biggest...but that's a rant that Bernd does better than I ever could, so go to EAS for that! ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
