It's a nice looking ship - very sleek. It's also very massive - 115 decks say the specs.

115 Decks?????? My god, its got to be a Battleship or dreadnaunght in SE4 terms. This ship might out-do a Soverign!

Hey, I do have a couple of questions about this movie though.

First-Does the Dominion War play an effect on how this story is going work? I mean, the Dominoin War was a very large and important war. I find it hard to beleive it wouldn't have major effects in the future.

Second-About the Show Enterprise, are we ever going to see Starfleet make first contact with the Romulans? I don't know if Enterprise is anywhere similar to SFB, but in SFB part of the reason the Federation was formed was because of the devestating effects the Romulan/Fed war in the 22nd Century. I would have sworn the Romulan War was etheir just before or just after the Federation was formed (at least in SFB terms).

There is an episode coming up where the Enterprise NX-01 runs into a romulan mine field. I think it's slated at episode 3 for the season.

They have also invited John Logan to script any romulan shows he wants to do and are being extremely careful abotu handling the romulans.

I personally try to pretend that Voyager never really happened, as well as parts of DS9. Those two shows really took Star Trek away form 'meeting new life and new civilizations' to 'meeting and killing new life and battling new civilizations'. Having 2 Star Trek shows on at a time was a bit much as well.

I can see that Enterprise might be drawn into the flashy special effects, big explosions, super spaceships, and major battles that obsessed DS9 and Voyager, notably with their obsession of time travel. However, the best thing that I have noticed about Enterprise is that they are getting back to the basics, charactor development over special effects. They do not have the same two dimensional and very boring characters that filled the Last two shows. In DS9 and Voyager, they all got along too well, it was like watching Full House, but in space.

I started watching Star Trek as a kid. Actually, my mother watched Star Trek when it was rerun in the late 60's and early 70's. I watched every episode of TNG, but lost interest in DS9 and Voyager and then became a fan of B5.

(I actually saw a picture of the new Romulan Warbird a few months ago, and was very dissappointed in it. At the time, it was very silver and non-Romulan looking. It was possibly just the angle that the picture was, but this one looks a heck of a lot better!)
