Sad fact: Voyager's mess hall is ten-forward with the windows turned upside down.

What did they use the 2 foot one for?
|
# ? Feb 10, 2020 03:48 |
|
Distant shots. The 6-footer was so big they couldn't use it for some motion control shots because the camera couldn't get far enough away from the model on the motion control rig. If you want the ship zooming off into the distance it's not very impressive if it only ends up three feet from the camera.

What was the one they modified into the Galaxy-X? The 4ft one? Because I know that whatever one it was was like permanently damaged by the process and they couldn't remove the phaser add ons to the nacelles so that when it showed up on DS9 it still had them on. Same with the Enterprise-B, I think. They converted the Excelsior filming model into the B, and they glued the add ons for the Nexus sequence so hard that they couldn't remove them again without damaging the model so they left them in place and reused it for DS9 as is too.

Keeping the focus on what's really important: the sunglasses.Den of Geek posted:Though she kept her Vulcan cards hidden, Tomita revealed one delightful secret about Commodore Oh — the origin of her sunglasses in that scene where she sneaks-up behind Alison Pill. Turns out, this was a small Easter egg connected to a very different Jean-Luc; the French filmmaker Jean-Luc Goddard, or, more specifically one actress, Anna Karina, whom Goddard worked with in several famous films like A Woman is a Woman and The Little Solider. https://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/star-trek/285702/star-trek-picard-who-is-commodore-oh So yeah, sounds to me like they're not actually a cryptic reveal about the Vulcan third eyelid. They just picked a style that they thought would look cool.

Powered Descent posted:Keeping the focus on what's really important: the sunglasses. That was my take on it. I mean, not the Goddard thing, but just that they chose to do it because it looked good for the scene.

FlamingLiberal posted:I still love it in all of its absurdity If you shaved off those mid-life crisis dad nacelle spoiler fins and the dinky pew pew little cannons bracketing the bridge it would be a passable design for "the Federation kitted this thing out into a dreadnaught to fight the Klingons with" ship. The phase lance under the saucer I can take or leave, but it's kind of cool as poo poo when it drops out of warp and just roasts a motherfucker in mid-flight like it's the Durandal from Xenosaga or something.

nine-gear crow posted:I love how over the top dumb it was though Yeah. Like Riker said, they wanted to retire her. I just head-canon that since they were basically done with that ship anyway they used the D as a test-bed for lots of new tech and experiments. edit: Since it wasn't destroyed at Veridian III I assume that alt-future Ent-D was almost assimilated by the Borg in First Contact as well.

Autism Sneaks posted:I loved the E and I'm sad none of the ships we saw over Mars seemed to continue the aesthetic of my big angry spoon I've got a soft spot for all the post-TNG Federation ships. Sovereign, Akira, Steamrunner, Norway, Saber, Intrepid, Defiant, Prometheus, Nova. I don't care what anyone says, they're all great, even if they all look like shovels or flat irons. Norway-class. Showed up for five seconds in First Contact and then died because Foundation Imagining's CG model of it got corrupted beyond recovery.

nine-gear crow posted:the enterprise-j looks really cool gently caress all of you Honestly, since you mentioned it earlier, the Durandal somehow makes more sense to me than the Enterprise-J, despite the pair of detached rotating wings. Maybe I just liked the Durandal because it had an internal transit system, which makes sense, a city-ship should really have that. Even if transporters exist, one systems failure and your crew is stuck hiking through kilometers of corridors to get anywhere. May as well also have trains just in case.

Delsaber posted:Honestly, since you mentioned it earlier, the Durandal somehow makes more sense to me than the Enterprise-J, despite the pair of detached rotating wings. I really like the design of a lot of Xenosaga ships, particularly the Durandal and the Dämmerung. If I recall correctly the wings on the Durandal and the weird pinwheel set up the Dämmerung has are supposed to be some kind of artificial gravity counterweight system held in place with force fields or gravity tethers or something. The Dämmerung specifically is such a cool design and concept. I love that moment in Episode I where it zooms in on the pyramid at the top of the ship and then it cuts to Wilhelm's office and you see the Woglinde II flying past the window outside and you realize "holy poo poo, that's where he's been this whole time." It made me wish Star Trek would do something like that, just have like some Space CEO's big all-windows office at the top of their big giant artificial planet space ship. God, Xenosaga was a terminally flawed series made up of a lot of really great individual parts. nine-gear crow fucked around with this message at 09:02 on Feb 10, 2020 |
