Conrad said:Still, I didn't like the way they dealed with the tholian. You saw somewhat too much of what was a pretty uninspiring CG design. And It was humerous to an extent inwhich heres this ship from a 100 years into the future and we have exactly the same ship interiors from the 60s show.
I understand why they did it that way, it would of been nice to see some more "futuristic" control panels and Video displays.

You don't have to explain why the look was "retro" from our external point of view, but if you go in and start changing things, then you've created a problem. First it starts with video displays, then uniforms, then the exterior hull plating and quite quickly you have lost the whole point of bringing in a ship from that era. The people who are going to appreciate an episode like this want it to be as close to the original as possible. I went back and watched The Tholian Web just prior to In A Mirror, Darkly, and it was great. The positioning of the dead bodies on the bridge was exactly how Spock, Chekov, McCoy and Kirk left them hours (36 years) prior. McCoy told Kirk the captain's neck had been broken.. the same line T'Pol said to Archer. I'm freakin ecstatic about these incredible continuity links and attention to detail, and I'd almost feel betrayed if they started jazzing up the control panels and whatnot.
