Final US Domestic Trailer Revealed

Post by Sonic Glitch »

And here is the third (and final?) domestic trailer I believe,

Apple trailers

Trekmovie.com.

I'm getting more and more excited.

Holy shit. :shock:

What the hell is happening? Is it just me, or is that some super huge Federation ship Harrison is apparently captaining? Is he from the future timeline of this universe, perhaps?

Also, that answers the question of whether that's the E rising out of the water.

It is.

Is that a good "Holy shit. :shock:" or a bad "Holy shit. :shock:" ?

It looks like a really huge Federation ship -- trekmovie.com i believe referenced "Dreadnaught." This merely pushes me further into thinking Harrison is part of some black, Section 31-esque agency.

Definitely good. :)

It's at least 1,600 meters long, by the look of it. Hell of a big ship for the Federation, even in this timeline. I could buy Section 31; they called him an 'operative' in a previous trailer.

Correction, around 1,400 meters long. I imagine after the movie comes out, plenty of people will make size comparisons. :)

...is it mean of me to half expect an Ex Astris article claiming that it's really only 200 m long? :happydevil:

I make the lengths approximately 570 pixels to 260 on this pic, making the new ship 2.192 times larger. Going with 725 m for the Enterprise that would make the new ship 1,589 m long. Just shy of a mile.

Hmph, should have made that pic a link. Sorry if I spoiled anything for anybody.

Wow, I was pretty much right with my first completely eyballed guess.

Anyone care to speculate on what the fuck that is?

(That was the first thing I said during the trailer - "What the fuck is that!? What's happening here?")

No meaner than it is of me to be surprised Bernd hasn't whinged about it already.

For some reason this reaffirms my feelings that it has nothing to do with Khan.

I bet it's no "simple mining ship" either. JJ does have a thing for big... ships, it looks like. Now where's the big red ball in this one?

Anyway, a month to the date until it launches. Like most of you I'm sure, I can hardly wait.

The perspective could be skewed.

That said, Excelsior?

That's an interesting idea. I've been wondering how Harrison could have gotten such a big ship ever since, well, yesterday. He's described as a 'top operative' (whatever that means) but he'd need access to a huge amount of resources to have built that. We've speculated that development has accelerated for Starfleet in this new universe ever since the Narada/Kelvin battle so the Excelsior program could have gotten a head start/been fast tracked. As an insider Harrison would have advanced knowledge of these secret programs.

*there's also room for overlap between this and the "Section 31/covert branch" theory
