U.S.S. Kelvin pic! (and more -- large images)

TrekMovie.com has a pic from the Kelvin. It appears to have the same font as TOS on the hull, contrary to what we saw in the teaser (but with red trim like in the movies). It looks like it's registry is NCC-0514.

Sweet!
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

I believe they're phaser turrets. They do kind of look like a step between ENT and TOS.
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

Ah yes, great observation.

This one shot makes this movie for me, I already feel I have gone somewhere I have never gone before!
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

It also looks as if there is a bit of TNG homage in the detailing as well - "Phaser ridge", though it's either just structural, or part of the shields.

I've been kinda semi-tepid about this installment of Trek since it's inception was first announced...

Now THIS pic has begun to warm the cockles of my 50* year old Trek Heart!!!

I'm starting to get the feelings I had back when I was 20* and was waiting for TMP to hit the theaters.

*(OMG...has it really been THAT Long??)

Also....

Love the fact that there's SEVERAL (at least 4?) WEAPON INSTALLMENTS shown....

Three popped up...

Two Firing?...

And One Closed !!!! :drool:

Seriously....

The Main View Screen behind them?
Sulu's Pop-Up Viewer??
Super-Sized Bolts holding everything together???
Circuit Board connections etched into the hull framing, how cool is that????
Not so sure They picked the right actor to represent Chekov....maybe he'll grow on me though.
I bet Uhura's Short-sleeved shirt ain't the ONLY thing that's showin' some skin !! :drool:

Oh come on! You call that an image? I don't even know what the ship looks like. All I know about the ship that I didn't know yestterday is that its registry number consists of 0514. Woo, my life is complete (note the sarcasm).

SQUEEEEEEE!!! (Exaggerated fanboy squeal)

This looks awesome. I love it, I really do. My only nitpicks are I would've preferred ball turrets on the Kelvin, the weapons look a bit like the same old pea-shooters we've always seen, and I'm not so wild about the atmospheric-looking firey explosions and smoke... but still! Awesomeness in the extreme!
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

I burst out laughing at this pictures, it looks like a Sci-Fi channel original movie. Maybe if the explosions are nice I'll be able to enjoy it the same way I do the new Knight Rider.

I mean

COOOOL TOTALLY SWEET BRAH

You're right...it looks like a 21st Century Big Budget film, rather then a 1960's TV show.
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

All of this is very encouraging! The uniforms look great they have an added texture. The bridge is just awesome looking, very advanced and high tech.

I can't wait to see this movie!!
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

The only problems I have with the pics so far is that the Kelvin has too much of a TOS movie feel (I mean TMP-VI) to it but I think that's minor. How are they going to account for the drastic change to the the Enterprise bridge? The Pike era bridge is identical to the one they had in TOS besides colors and those lamps, or are they going to retcon the Pike era bridge?

I said it looks like a Sci-Fi channel original movie. That's... not really a good thing.

How does it look like a Scifi Channel original movie? I mean I know they suck...I just don't know how you get that vibe from the set design.

Maybe in motion it will look better.

I don't know. The silly computer panels and greeblies and lights everywhere... It's like an iPod collided with a set from Stargate: Atlantis. I can't really describe it. It feels haphazard.
 
Re: U.S.S. Kelvin pic!

I just watched “Entertainment Tonight” and they showed a FULL picture of the Kelvin from the new “Entertainment Weekly.” It was a quick “Rumor or Real” feature they do talking about William Shatner returning to Star Trek (which they debunked.)

So what we got is an obvious close up.. compared to what will be in the upcoming "Entertainment Weekly."

Actually thats not a bad description...:lol::lol:

Someone who saw the bridge earlier in the year...I think it was someone at AICN, said the same thing about the Ipod look. He said that it looked like someone at Apple got their hands on the thing.
