Yep. I always liked the look of Voyager's nacelles as the sides as opposed to being up.

Voyager was supposed to be different and the nacelles being flat made it different. Having them shift was just strange and a waste of space and energy.

Actually they wanted something to move so it was the nacelles.

Never really made any sense to me. The flat pylons just came with the re-design of Voyager.

When it went to warp. Even the new Abramsprise has something that moves before going into warp. Much more subtle.

No... it was the fins on the back of the nacelles.

Looks like there were more than one thing: http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2 ... r_dish.jpg

That is a pic of the deflector dish going from closed and not at warp (top) to open and ready for warp (bottom).

Wee're both right!

I'm lost, who hates who?

Aside from most of us hating Blackstar... (you'll find out eventually about that one).
