Another new TV spot (UFC Fight Night spot)

shuttle.jpg


This is probably Pike's shuttle entering Narada after dropping skydiving Kirk and Sulu off.
 
I'm not sure that the cadet who's challenging Kirk at the beginning of the trailer isn't the security guard standing by later as Kirk takes command of the Enterprise. :lol:
 
It would be so much fun if he's the one who says "You're the captain now, Mr. Kirk," after forcing Whacked-Out Spock to stand down. :lol:

I don't think he'd follow that up with, "You got it." Not very respectful. Not the way the line is delivered. It's hard to say, but I wonder if Nero says that when he sees Kirk has taken command.
He'd be saying it as in, despite how I changed your life, here you are anyway against all odds. After all, (like Spock) Nero knows Kirk was a captain. It would be a somewhat sacrastic and yet perhaps slightly sincere complement from his enemy.

No. The tone and use of "Mr. Kirk" both indicate that it's a shipmate.

Really, I tend to agree with whoever suggested that it's actually an exchange during the Kobayashi Maru test. The flippancy of "You got it" only makes sense in that context.
 
So where'd they put Starfleet Academy this time? :rommie: It used to be on the Presidio but now it's apparently on Treasure Island?

That place roams around worse than the island on Lost.

I listened a couple of more times more closely, and I think you're right. But I still don't think it's a shipmate. What I'm wondering is if, "You're Captain, now, Mr. Kirk," was part of a message from Starfleet Command. I say that because the, "You got it," actually sounds like Pine's (Kirk's) voice, and his reply to the message.
 
"You got it" is too flippant to be an operational situation. We've seen Kirk at the moment that he takes command of the Enterprise, and he is in a sober mood.

I'm betting it's the KM test. He's quite smug.

Could be. But if the picture fits the sound, wasn't he in the black shirt? I agree the response is flippant. Perhaps from confidence? Could be, too that Starfleet is aware of the situtation and PUT Kirk in command, and when he takes the chair, he's already got their permission, though no one else knows it. (After all, there's no Pike; Spock's gonzo; and who knows the situation better than Kirk?) Otherwise, on what basis could he claim command? Where's his authority if he's not even an officer on board? DAMN! I'm just blowing smoke, here. Just another reason to see the movie, I guess! ;)

My sense from watching these trailers about 50,000 times is that unless you see their mouths moving in sync, on screen, the likelihood that the voice-overs match the visuals at any point is close to our friend The Wormhole's least favorite number.
 
Is there a particular reason to assume the line is directed at Jim Kirk?
I was listening to Faran Tahir in an interview and the voice is some what similar, I thought it might actually be Robau saying it to George Kirk.

What is the likelihood that "You're the captain now, Mr. Kirk" and "You got it" are even part of the same scene, though? The second line is dropped onto the end of the first, as if interrupting, but it doesn't feel like the one is in answer to the other; they sound to me like they come from two different conversations.
