Missing transporter scene?

This has been bugging me for quite some time now. Back when they were showing commercials for the new movie I swear I saw a scene in the commercial where there was a transportation taking place and McCoy was involved in it, and there was a mention of how they were going to be broken down into particles or something like that. McCoy always hated the transporter and this scene I guess was going to show us why he hated it. I looked for this in the movie but it was never there. Did I imagine this or was it a deleted scene?

There wasn't anything like that (that I recall.) They usually showed him saying "Space is Disease and Danger..." or "How poetic."
 
I definitely remember something like that in one of the commercials -- just a voice-over, no visual of McCoy speaking the line (could it have been radio?) Damned if I can remember which one, though -- they started to come pretty thick and fast at one point.

Did not appear in the movie, at any rate.
 
There was one like that for Enterprise ages ago. I think it had Reed saying "they say it's safe..."

I can't recall one for Trek XI
 
There was a commercial that aired in the cinema before the movie started. It involved cadets on a transporter pad (not the one in the movie BTW). The instructor is lecturing them on how molecules will be broken down and converted to energy when a smartass cadet points to the guy standing next to him and says: "I don't want to wind up with his face." They all beam down to a generic alien world and the smartass cadet, who wasn't paying attention, faints from the shock. The commercial then cut to a few clips from the movie's trailer and then advertises whatever product it was (probably a cellphone).
