AH! GAME PENALTY!

The NCC-1701-A came after Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home...

She was the U.S.S. Yorktown recommissioned as the Enterprise.

Edit**: Oh wait...I'm an ***. You said AFTER III....technically you are right.

Me = -1

You = 2

Blast you.

The engine Pylons look droopy, the saucer section out of place. Yet, at the same time when I see it zooming around in the trailer, It takes on a totally new life and somehow becomes much more identifiable as a constitution class starship. It's like the motion actually breathes a bit of sparkle and life into the otherwise, saggy model, leading me to believe that we should all take a deep breath, and wait to judge the ship when we can see it, to be blunt, on a really big screen, and for more than a few frames at a time.

You know, I've been looking at this set of ships all right next to each other for a while. I'm had something on my mind, but until right this moment, I haven't been able to articulate it.

That is, the last one - the "A" - is the only ship of the set that even looks like it has any depth or chance of being "real". The newest Enterprise (the one in the middle) looks like a toy, and the classic Enterprise looks like an old toy.

You're right.
it is the only ship that has the chance of being real.

[lordisaiah]

lol...because of those 3 pictures...only the 1701-A is the ship still using the actual film model.

The TOS is a CGI version of the original, and the Abramsprise is equally CGI.

[Saquist]

CGI is too perfect.
It can't recreate the minor imperfects that make things look real.

I've always liked the "A" alot because it does look real. I think JJ's ship looks real too though. JJ's ship has a certain "toughness" that the others just don't have.

But that's just my opinion...
