[QUOTE]Originally posted by Marauth: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Wes: [qb] The scene looked fun and exciting, and your going into way too much depth. Scenes like this kick ass, and they - and star trek in general - wasn�t meant to be criticized as deeply as you are. No one cares about the aerodynamically challenged ship. The plot is fine. Visual Effects like these bring in viewers and increase ratings, which generally leads to more profit. You have to realize that this is science fiction and not some technically accurate reality. Technical impossibilities like this have existed in Star Trek since the very beginning. You are going to have to expect that the technology behind Enterprise's atmospheric flight isnt going to be explained on screen, like most of the technical and scientific wonders of this franchise. As soon as we all realize this, the more we will enjoy Enterprise. [/qb][/QUOTE]Science-fiction - generally implies that there's at least some grounding in th real world, is it too much to expect that things are realistic enough to allow suspension of disbelief? Enterprise has shattered that suspension for a lot of viewers. It should not need to rely on pointless FX sequences to draw in more viewers, all that shows is that the show can't stand on it's plot alone - which it can't - and that it needs to draw in the mindless 14yr old demographic who think Ep I had a well thought out plot. P.S. I was 14 once, a short time ago in a house far, far, down the road; and I recall TNG and DS9 relying on their storylines, character building and good writing; oh well at least I can watch Farsca... Oh sh**"! :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
