Re-arranged for a smaller orchestra, and more energetic (most noticeable in the percussion)

I saw a lot of opinions back in the day about it, and it almost seems like people were offended that they even tried to break the mold at all.
I don't actually mind Faith Of The Heart for the intro. My biggest problem with it is that its not an original song - it was written specifically for a movie that was completely unrelated to Star Trek.
I would probably appreciate it more if they wrote their own song for ENT - it could even be a country/pop song like FOTH, but it would still be a Star Trek song.
They definitely cherry picked the best bits of the song for the intro though. I like their cover more than the original.
Actually, if you've watched TNG's early seasons, you've already heard this unused theme, in bits and pieces.
The very first piece of music heard in TNG ever (that isn't the intro itself) is a slower, less energetic (more introspective I guess?) version of that unused theme.
The main leitmotif itself appears all over early TNG.
I figure that, when Maccarthy was writing the early filler music, he assumed that his theme would become the main theme, and so heavily leaned into it when writing the filler music. Obviously, the main theme was tossed - but not his other music.
The TMP nacelles are very 70s (lol), but the rest of the ship looks so good that it makes you overlook it.
I think that you could make a good case for the First Contact/Regeneration/QWho loop directly being Q's creation, rather than a vague sense of fate.
You know, the feeling I'm getting is that !startrek is a lot more general than r****t startrek was. There's only three boards here, so everything goes in one of the three. And the vast majority goes into this one.
I don't want to go to reddit, but does it really say startrek.site? That's not a real domain.
Yeah they're still messing around with bespoke stuff at that time.
It won't be clicking ads for them though!
Yeah this is a pretty stupid part of the UI, and after following the directions I already see more posts, like this one.
So the question is, will this back-up my posts to a file as well?
For me, its less "Oh my god how could this happen!?" and more "I told you asshats so!"
