Another new clip: "Keep going, Scotty!"

Holy hell! That was fun! How they spun the whole corridor set to make that happen I'd love to know. Can't wait to see this movie.
 
That Engine Room/Deck is ridiculous!!!!
How many wide open spaces and walkways with deadly drops below does one starship need? Are Kirk and Scotty going to the Omega 13 Device?

Some info on that

Of course, much of the interior of the ship still had to be built as sets on stages, but even those were expanded for the sequel. In the first "Star Trek," the different sections like the bridge, transporter room, and medical bay were built separately, and the camera had to cut to go from one to the other.
But this time, they were connected to create one seamless ship. “On this film, we really had the full playground,” said Chris Pine, who one again plays Captain Kirk. “We had construction guys working seven days a week, 24 hours a day, just so we could have this totally immersive world to be in."


They also built sets that could mechanically tilt for a sequence where the damaged Enterprise begins to fall out of the sky. Simon Pegg said, "It was all done with wires combined with a tilting set, so we were actually, literally running on the walls sideways... It was enormous fun to shoot, to constantly be reorienting our sense of what’s up and what’s down."

Engineering still looks like a brewery then

Yea. As I understand it they used the Budweiser facility in the San Fernando Valley, CA.


*sigh* Oh well.... I was hoping for a 'new' interpretation of the engine room that would have been a walk back from the brewery & city-block-size-catwalks-and-tubs set (they are on the Enterprise, not inside the Death Star nor within the Great Machine of the Krell), but I guess I'll have to live with it.


Yeah, I was REALLY hoping for a real engineering set this time too. :(

(Hard to imagine that they went from such a compact and simple engine design and small engineering in Archer's time, to the HUGE, complex, beer brewery and caverous engineering areas just a century - or less - later.)
 
At the rate they're releasing clips I feel like the whole movie will be released by the time it opens.
 
Seatbelts. About damn time.

Anyone notice the extra architectural elements and the set extension on budgeneering? That plus the lighting makes it look a lot better than the last time around.
 
You know, upon rewatching this, I was wondering: when they're running through the "white" hallways, the ship rotates 90 degrees and they're running on the wall. However, when they reach engineering, the ship is rightside up again (and tips 90 degrees thereafter).

Is this a continuity error, or is the ship "bucking"? Just curious.
