[QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [QB] Hmm - this is tricky - trying to think about when you enjoyed the first time you saw a particular starship. OK, clear moment - it was before the net (for me) and we all knew it was coming and it took 2 and a bit years... and then the awesome blurry credits ended - and the veil of nebulous gas moved aside and there was the Enterprise-E!! (Wish they lingered on it a bit longer). That is a main complaint with CGI nowadays - especially in the movies - the editing is WAY TOO FAST - you can't fix your eye on any one starship for too long. Even on Voyager and late DS9 (yes the movies is what I'm mainly talking about - well FC -->) It's as if they cut it up your eye can't follow and focus to much and thus you can't tell it's CGI - which I think is CRIMINAL considering now CGI can look like physical models (if enough work is done on them). Reading through that Communicator edition with the making of the Excelsior and Bill George? It was interesting to note how he mentioned how Trek wanted him to make his shots long... beautiful shots that depicted these slowly moving beheomths! He was used to Star Wars where Lucas ordered him to get as much 'stuff' going on in 40 frames as possible (like 1 second). That's why Trek effects were so magnificent in II and III. They need to return to this - hopefully they do for Nemesis - that crash scene from the preview looks like a nice long shot. Andrew [/QB][/QUOTE]
