I've always loved the warp effect in TMP and it bugged me when they moved away from such a glorious effect. However in episode 1 of series 2 of SNW when the Enterprise is facing the viewer and warps... I must admit I re-watched that a bunch of times with a smile. It felt good, and I liked the way the Klingon ship appeared, that reminded me of the way things appear in Star Wars.

Ok but NuTrek gave us the glorious spatial distortion warp effect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCCYWTAA2wQ

Even though it got a bit lazy in the later TOS movies, I always loved the “color smear” style warp. It just feels fast.

The later versions lean into the theoretical spacetime distortion physics of warp and look cool in their own right, but they don’t get me hyped the same way.
