I just saw the enhanced version of "Arena", the episode with the gorn in it, with the CGI 1701.

Was anyone else a little underwhelmed by it? I was expecting something more like the Defiant from "In a Mirror, Darkly". The new CGI ship looks cheaper than the stock footage of the studio model IMHO.

Glad I missed it then.

Personally, I respectfully disagree.

The quality of the visual integrity is superior to the original, but I am a fan in the old train of thought that nothing beats the original, and still feel that way on a great many levels.

I found the CGI NCC-1701 to be very detailed, but that his just me personally.

What I enjoyed however was the Gorn eye blinking effect they put in the episode. Although it looked strange to see when included in the original footage.

Truth be told I usually watch g4TV during Midnight Smack because of the animated shorts with the primates...

Correction: It is Midnight Spank. Sorry for the confusion.
