I just received the scrips for Endgame from the Voyager Documentary and this part I’ve highlighted caught my eye.

I only have Voyager available on Paramount+ so the quality isn't great on streaming but I cant see any of the parts mentioned in the scrip.

Maybe if someone has the DVD they could check or I wonder if the VFX department didn’t get the memo.

I wonder if the VFX department didn’t get the memo.

It could also be an early script draft and during production they decided not to spend time and money on changing the ship model. Not everything you see in a script will end up on the screen.

It was called the ablative armor. Pretty sure it was present in the broadcast show. Maybe stream removed it?

[–] UESPA_Sputnik@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

It was present at the end of the episode where Voyager got the future Borg technology. This scene from the linked script is the scene from the very beginning of the episode which depicts a timeline in which Voyager returns to Earth without that Borg encounter.

One of the worst tragedies of modern day.

Agree. But its pretty realistic that we will have a good AI upscale in a few years

I got this from my local copies, from the final scene of e26 shortly before the credits roll:

The opening scene from the previous episode (e25) are very dark and don't show the dorsal side of the ship in enough light or detail to tell if there's anything there. Here's the clearest shot of the underside I could get:

They did create an armored Voyager model for later in the episode. I’m guessing they decided not to use it in the opening shot to save it as a surprise for later.

This is from the finale, but I don’t think it’s the firework scene

They wanted to do that scene since the very beginning! and they only did it at the very end
