Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Yeah even if the design doesn't suck, the whole style of art doesn't feel great. Where's the sleek beauty of the Sovereign class? Anything with some sort of relationship to the retro roots of the franchise. That's Star Trek. This still isn't, it seems.

Giftheck 916 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 It looks like an old ship, maybe from the Kelvin era. Sleekness isn't something I'd associate with ships from the TOS era anyway, alternate reality designs included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 TOS was sleek in a retro way. Especially compared to the blocky reboot stuff. JoeinAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Strange, I wouldn't consider the original Constitution class design from the 1960s as sleek, as in elegant or streamlined. Maybe the refit, definitely the Excelsior and Intrepid and Prometheus and Sovereign classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Hilary Bray 235 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I guess the Constitution's in the Original Series/Movies are sleeker compared to JJPrise. As for that image above of the Franklin, all these ships having huge nacelles makes me think the designer has shortcomings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,301 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 So essentially they wasted two thirds of the reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Well, to be honest, did Wrath of Khan keep anything established in The Motion Picture? We consider it a sequel, but isn't it also a second reboot that ignores the slow stodgy Wise movie and sets the stage for the vast franchise to follow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brónach 1,301 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 So Beyond is a second reboot that will get more movies going? To be honest, 2009 and Into Darkness feel to me like the Thor movies, as if they didn't know what to do with the source material (The Force Awakens feels like a more solid remake of ST2009) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 The hiring of Justin Lin tells me they're taking this one even further into being a straight up action movie than the first two. I hope I'm wrong. Anyway as with most other diehard Trek fans I'm placing all my hopes for the future of this world in Bryan Fuller's hands. A. A.

Brónach 1,301 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 It doesn't seem like Trek has managed to distinguish itself from the rest of the current blockbuster offer.

Yeah I don't have anything against a more action-oriented Trek either if they're able to balance it with the more thoughtful spirit at the heart of Star Trek (for me). First Contact achieved this balance probably the best out of the first 10 movies. It takes many cues from straight-up action movies of the 90s while retaining the core Trek spirit. I still think '09 and Into Darkness were just dry runs for Force Awakens for Abrams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that they didn't quite care about the source material, not really. They needed a springboard to launch a sci-fi action franchise and they already had one. A old, rusty, broken, springless springboard, but it was there nonetheless. They threw some new parts at it, a new coat of paint, and opened it to a public that didn't exactly care about the source material either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd always wanted to make Star Wars-like space opera, the real thing was unavailable, and Star Trek was what he could get his hands on, so he turned Trek into a space opera.

Datameister 2,034 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Pretty much. Which I thought worked pretty well for the 2009 film - it was certainly different, but the part of Star Trek I always cared most about was the characters, and I thought they nailed that. Into Darkness was just so-so, though, and the marketing for Beyond has not enticed me one bit. mstrox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
