Marketing - "We have a life-size Enterprise"

[EJD1984]

With the movie right around the corner, has there been any developments/information on this comment Abrams said late last year?

"Oh, there's a whole crazy campaign that is going to ...," Abrams said, trailing off. "It's insane. We have a life-size Enterprise, but I'm not allowed to talk about it." LINK

Was he just BSing us or plans canceled due to cost.

You'd think that by now there would be something - if it's going to happen.

[Admiral Buzzkill]

It was a joke.

 

[Deckerd]

A cruel joke which will cause many feverishly sleepless nights for some.

 

[Jimmy_C]

A life-size Enterprise.... Must be real. Nobody would joke about that!

 

[Squiggy]

Surely such a feat would be viewable from space.

TO THE GOOGLE EARTH!!!

 

[gastrof]

Surely such a feat would be viewable from space.

TO THE GOOGLE EARTH!!!

It's in a hidden facility.

Underground.

Surrounded by time-traveling islands.

 

[btflash]

Surely such a feat would be viewable from space.

ahhhh, but then maybe its in space.

 

[DeafPoet]

If they're making one and they have the audacity to build it on the ground I say we posse up and torch the fucker.

Movie promo or not, everyone knows you build that shit in orbit.

 

[miraclefan]

It was a joke.

Second!

 

[Squiggy]

Surely such a feat would be viewable from space.

ahhhh, but then maybe its in space.

I think we've already established that the Enterprise was built on Earth and green is the color for the command division.

 

[Kelso]

Obviously, they don't have a life-size Enterprise. That's silly.

It's 1:2 scale.

 

[shapeshifter]

Yeah but, if they did, and it could be filled with helium, how cool would it be to see that hovering over a city!

 

[DaveyNY]

As long as it's not New York City...

Those people panic-their-ass-off, way to quickly about things flying over the City now-a-days...

HAHAHAHA!!!!!

 

[Mr Nighttime]

But could you imagine a Enterprise hotel in Vegas? Built to specs. You could take tours of the bride, engineering, sick bay, and the shuttle bay. Stay in your own cabin for a while, eat colorful cubes of food, and maybe..just maybe...go to an official function where you can greet a Tellerite ambassador!

 

[M'Sharak]

Counting down to a reprise of "Serious proposel concerning ship"...

 

[Nick Ryder]

In the words of our dear friend Vreenak.

"IT'S A FAAAAAAAAAAAKE!

 

[Roshi]

In the words of our dear friend Benny Russell:

"IT'S REEEEEEEEEEAAAAL!

no, wait!...

 

[Jackson_Roykirk]

Nobody has seen it because it's being built in an orbital spacedock --

-- in geosynchronous orbit above Riverside, Iowa.

 

[Squiggy]
