[QUOTE]Originally posted by Griffworks: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [qb] Well apparently some fanboy went through the TSFS (or was it TVH?) scenes and decided that one ship couldn't account for all the different angles we saw the [i]Excelsior[/i] from in the film. SO they reasoned that there must have been at least TWO [i]Excelsior[/i]s in SpaceDock at the time... Personally, I think this is complete bunk, but that's just me. ;) [/QUOTE][/qb] Sounds like it to me, as well. [QUOTE][qb]Oh, and BTW, it's actually [URL=http://neutralzone.future.easyspace.com/Federation/Other/PhaseIIPrototypes05a.htm]this[/URL] study model of the [i]Enterprise[/i] as re-designed by Ralph McQuarrie for the planned [i]Star Trek[/i] film [i]Planet of the Titans[/i] back in the 70s (this was before they decided to do a second series, [i]Star Trek: Phase II[/i], which would ironically later get turned back into [i]The Motion Picture[/i]) that appears in the background in STIII.[/qb][/QUOTE]Same ship seen in [URL=http://members.aol.com/Griffworks//st33-a.jpg]this vidcap from ST:III[/URL]. I initially forgot that I had been in a discussion at another forum and someone there had vidcap capabilities, but no host for the pic, so I volunteered, posted it on 5 Nov, 2002, and still have the image on my AOL servers. Goes along nicely w/my philosphy of "never throw anything away!" :D Anyhow, this image was lightening in Adobe PhotoDeluxe so that you can more clearly see that this is the McQuarrie design you mention above. Guess that makes it canon, too, huh...? At least, more canon than the "two [i]Excelsiors[/i] idea" floated in the theory you mention above. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
