The whalers sh*tting themselves when the _Bounty_ decloaks... I was 11 when I saw it at the cinema for the first time and love that scene ever since 😂🤣😆!
I remember getting home from picking up ME2 Collector's Edition (back when people used physical media, what an age ago) and when the Normandy SR2 was revealed, I almost, ALMOST teared up because of the music and "That's mah home!"
@@reginal.898 After playing and loving ME1 three or four times through, those opening two hours of ME2 went fking HARD in the feels... and then they spring the Normandy SR-2 on you o_o
The Enterprise Refit is such a wild ride. You think about it: at that point, it's been over ten years since the Enterprise appeared in a new piece of Star Trek work and suddenly, here it is: a new cinematic look but its silhouette is the same. That awe Shatner and Doohan had probably was the same everyone else had for it.
Say what you will about the Galaxy-Class (D) and the Sovereign-Class (E), while they are really cool to look at, and some prefer them to the OG Constitution-Class, you got to admit that the Connies are really a class of their own (even the Constitution-III Enterprise-G).
This is why, I feel, the new ST movies were so bad. They treated the Enterprise like a plot device and blew her up in damn near every movie. She is not a plot device. She is one of, if not the most, important character in the whole franchise. Thats why STMP reveal was so impactful. Thats why ST III was so emotional as we saw the old girl in her own Kobayashi Maru as she fell through the atmosphere on Genesis. That’s why ST IV ending was so incredible. That’s why the only successful season of Picard was where the D was brought back from the dead. Starship Lives Matter.
There are many many great ship reveals out there that's for sure. My personal favorite is the Event Horizon. The story behind her cross shaped hull and interior design is chilling to say the least. I've enjoyed watching this series of yours. Great memories! 👍👍
I have the old Hallmark ornament of the Enterprise retro fit. Better detailed than later Hallmark ST ships. And it lights up. Nacelles and even impulse engine. Each Christmas I take it out “fly” around the room like a little kid and his toy spaceship. That and the “Reliant” are my fave ships of the Hallmark Line. I have about 20 shops. Just ships.
I know ST:TMP caught a lot of grief for being too slow and plodding, particularly the time spent on circling the ship but I have come to appreciate it over the years.(also I believe it had bad timing coming out after Star Wars which set an expectation for more action sci-fi) It's a beautiful scene and at the time had to be pretty cool fo Trek fans to see it after so many years. And to think of how they used to hand craft those models for the movies is damn impressive. The attention to detail looks great compared to the CGI crap nowadays. I see why they spent so much time on this part as an adult. NCC-1701 refit will always be my fav version of the Enterprise.
Shatner can act when he's not trying to be a movie star. See: the director of Wrath having to do take after take until he was too tired to do anything but what the director wanted.
@@avsbes98 The Normandy reveal will always be my favorite, but when holden says "This is the WARSHIP Rocinante"... that made my insides tingle. The significance of that statement in the context of the rest of the series and how he'd handled the Roci until that point did not go unnoticed.
Unless it was in another video, I have always thought the reveal of the USS Enterprise A (being hidden behind the Excelsior) was one of the besg reveals in Star Trek.
For a brief moment it looks like Kirk is getting the Excelsior and the crew is like, well not the worst we could get, and then the shuttle keeps going to reveal their old friend.
There are Three for honorable mention. First is the B5 White Star. I mean its a tangent approach, simple and clean. But you can't beat the angles and sweeping body lines. And her firepower. It's corvette class, but packs the punch of a destroyer. Then the "HUNKA JUNK" teaser that Bad Robot put out. Thirty second clip in theaters, and it drove everyone wild. But the modern one that got everyone's blood pumping was the HALO 4 USNC INFINITY appearance to shit on a Covenant cruiser and shuts up Cortana. Then proceeds to dump a full squadron's worth of frigates out to ruin their day.
Loved this video! For the next part, i think that (considering Enterprise coming up behind Reliant was included in the honorable mentions here), USS Intrepid rising to engage Titan (from Star Trek Picard) has to be included. I hope that for the next Fleet Arrivals video, a short segment from Starcraft 2 WIngs of Liberty's Assault on Char is included. I'd also like to see the Death Fleet descending on Vardona (Starcraft 2 Nova Covert Ops). Others i hope to see one day in these videos (Fleet, Ship and Ramming Attack) include the Stealth Ship fleet attacking the Donnager (The Expanse), Rocinante arriving on Ilus (The Expanse) and the Death of Ilkhan Leo Showers (Mechwarrior 5 Clans).
From an obscure failed pilot made for TV movie, I think Star Command (1996). The heroes decide to infiltrate a system by hiding in a comet/asteroid. They find a suitable one, sneak up to it, and are surprised to see an enemy ship trying exactly the same trick.
the thing about Forward Unto Dawn's entry is it's not just some cutscene or pre-rendered or anything like that, that's during gameplay that it happens, and thus a whole bunch of trickery was involved in its making: first the ship itself, it comes in from bloody far away, and there are 3 ways that was likely achieved: 1) a masked transition from a skybox element to the 3d model, 2) making FUD render outside the game's normal render distance (a flag for ignoring render distance would make this trivial) and 3) (and most likely, though possibly also combined with one of the other two methods) spawning FUD's model really tiny and making it grow instead of moving it to make it appear to be approaching second as the ship approaches a shockwave pushes _everything_ in the level that has physics, that sort of mass-scale application of physics hadn't really been done in a Halo game before. and to add to that if you pay attention to the surroundings as FUD arrives you'll notice not everything gets pushed at the same time, things closer to the cliff FUD approaches from get pushed slightly sooner than the stuff further away, meaning the volume used to apply the push likely either had to expand or move across the map third and probably my favourite: FUD will the proceed smack you for gawking too long and too close by dropping multiple scorpions and warthogs onto your face and there's probably a whole lot more that only Bungie could know about
Another honorable mention: spaceship reveal in Stargate SG-1, where Apophis reveals several of his cloaked ships to Heru’er and annhilates him; Also, the first time the Ori ships exit the Supergate and wreak havoc on the heroes’ fleet.
And another suggestion if you haven't already done it...the reveal of the titular Titan from Titan A.E. Alternatively, the scene where it forms planet Bob.
How is the Daedalus arriving to save Atlantis in Stargate Atlantis not on this list. It was such an amazing scene, and the build up for it... or the Prometheus revealed for the first time in SG1. Also amazing ship reveal moment.
For me it will always be the Mothership from Close Encounters. Saw the movie when I was 14 in 1977,and I just had never seen something of such scale and color.
I watched all 3 videos and was surprised one of the biggest reveals of all time was never mentioned? The ships from Independance Day arriving on earth!
@@azurelonewolf7716 are you sure you watched the right ones? I have a ship arrivals part one and a fleet arrivals part one that could get confused. The Independence Day ships are in part one of ship arrivals and reveals. Also, thank you for watching all of them.
The Whalers' helmsman broke the steering with his effort to get away from the Bird Of Prey. No ship's wheel would turn that fast or so many times in that short a time, I know I helmed at least seven different types of boat.
@@Brytonrock Snapped the chain to the steering gear or whatever it used back in the 80s or 70s depending on the age of the boat. But yeah, as someone who grew up at sea, that bit always struck me as funny rather than desperate.
I didn't know the first time that when Forward Unto Dawn comes down, you got blown back a lot...smacked into that rock formation, dead on impact. Oops. 😁
Definitely. I almost didn’t include it, and I almost put it lower because of how I remembered it. After rewatching and reading the comments on another video, I put it up to number two.
I put it in part one, so it won’t appear in other parts. It will appear in the compilation video and the definitive (at the time of upload) short version of the top ten series.
The Kelvin Enterprise in the ocean was one of the stupidest scenes ever! What was even the point of putting it in the ocean? "Hey, there's this primitive planet we want to explore, but instead of staying in orbit where they can't see us, let's land in the ocean and then take off and let them see us." Stupid!!
The Big E rising from the water, while awesome looking really pisses me off. One of the most hated things in modern Star Trek and Star Wars is the Abrams bull crap if these massive STARSHIPS are now somehow able to be built, land, and fly around effortlessly around a planet in atmosphere. Just shouldn’t be that way.
Not Star Trek Beyond. A rubbish film. A crap rendition of Enterprise. No real Trekkie will ever enjoy that bunkum. It will always be the refit Enterprise for me. And you omitted Battlestar Pegasus arriving in the re-imagined BSG.
I’m not sure what idiot put his list together but thanks for wasting my time! Enterprise reveal should’ve been the first and second spot. Where was the Kelvin line enterprise warping in and taking out the missiles? where was Pegasus surprise in the original Battlestar Galactica I mean, yeah this list was horrible
Why are Star Trek fans always so goddamn rude? Every single complaint comment on this video is whining that he used an Enterprise they don’t like or ordered them in the wrong spot. Thanks for reaffirming my decision to enjoy the franchise in peace by myself instead of engaging with the Trek community online!
The whalers sh*tting themselves when the _Bounty_ decloaks... I was 11 when I saw it at the cinema for the first time and love that scene ever since 😂🤣😆!

I don't care what anyone says, the constitution class Enterprise will always be my favorite starship. So very elegant.

Very nice ... The SR2 reveal gives me goosebumbs every time !
Same, even when I just listen to the OST, it gets me every time!
And it feels like I've watched this scene at least a hundred times.
Red Dwarf, the opening credits, painting the logo as the camera pans back. Still one of my favourite Spaceship reveals.
The arrival of the Forward Unto Dawn always gives me chills
i'm so glad it made one of these lists. its the coolest thing ever
Thank you for putting a Babylon 5 clip in.
So very much this. The series has multiple excelent scenes of this kind.
The Enterprise reveal from ST:TMP, somehow emphasised that the Enterprise is the main character and the human characters are her support.
This is why, I feel, the new ST movies were so bad. They treated the Enterprise like a plot device and blew her up in damn near every movie. She is not a plot device.

All those decades of films and games, this made my day.
For many BSG fans, the arrival of Battlestar Pegasus in the reimagined series has the high point of the show.
I was thinking when Galactica arrives at new caprica and dropped thru the atmosphere jumping just before impact
@@defiant18 Yes, the Adama maneuver. Epic and awesome.
@@defiant18 agreed
14:08 that speach and delen when she arrives at B% with her fleet to aid from the invading human fleet are equally good

That Bab 5 and the Trek II scenes are a couple of my favorites.
I love me some Rocinante but the Enterprise Refit reveal from TMP is, and always will be, #1.
I have the old Hallmark ornament of the Enterprise retro fit. Better detailed than later Hallmark ST ships. And it lights up. Nacelles and even impulse engine. Each Christmas I take it out “fly” around the room like a little kid and his toy spaceship. That and the “Reliant” are my fave ships of the Hallmark Line. I have about 20 shops. Just ships.
It's like seeing that old friend or that favorite blanket. It never gets old
and now i'm starting another run of Mass Effect .... i have no other choice !!

The Normandy is a beautiful ship.
They said that William Shatner couldn't act. He showed absolute awe and love on seeing his old ship in it's new, amazing form.
Shatner can act when he's not trying to be a movie star. See: the director of Wrath having to do take after take until he was too tired to do anything but what the director wanted.
They all did.
Whoops, had seen the clip from IV, and thought you'd meant the -A reveal in that movie.
He had no range, but he was Kirk.
He wasn’t the only one! The only other Enterprise that comes close is 1701-E.
LOL! I love that Iron Sky made the list.
Yes! The first is a gem.
Holden's little speech gave me the same feeling as Delenn's or Ivanova's did in B5.
"If you value your lives, be somewhere else."
Exactly. I mean, it's literally the single moment in the series he emphasizes that the Rocinante is indeed a Warship.
@@avsbes98 The Normandy reveal will always be my favorite, but when holden says "This is the WARSHIP Rocinante"... that made my insides tingle. The significance of that statement in the context of the rest of the series and how he'd handled the Roci until that point did not go unnoticed.
Indeed...
The "Oh man...here we go again" is my favorite bit. He knows Holden's about to Holden.
SR2 reveal. Still gives me goosebumps.

For a brief moment it looks like Kirk is getting the Excelsior and the crew is like, well not the worst we could get, and then the shuttle keeps going to reveal their old friend.
The SR2 "Normandy" is by far my number 1 ship, followed by NCC1701 "USS Enterprise" (and as Scotty said "no bloody A , B, C or D).
Couldve showed more of that Babylon 5 clip. The Agammemnon emerging from that fireball was an epic shot
But then we wouldn't have 2 minutes for Mass Effect 2, which wasn't even part of the list -_-
Enterprise reveal is the mother of all starship reveals
I think the salvage of the Nauvoo by Drummer in The Expanse is awe inspiring. It just hits different.

Might wanna look into the Yamato's Launch from Space Battleship Yamato. Specifically the 2199 animated series not the live action movie.
100% agreed. Especially the 2199 version.
Yessss, more Yamato!
Тут у меня два фаворита:
1. Нормандия SR-2
2. Корабль Асгарда из SG-1
From an obscure failed pilot made for TV movie, I think Star Command (1996). The heroes decide to infiltrate a system by hiding in a comet/asteroid. They find a suitable one, sneak up to it, and are surprised to see an enemy ship trying exactly the same trick.
First! 😎
I think i would've put the enterprise higher than Rocinante, though.
I have trouble deciding which special effect in Star Trek TMP was more impressive - the long panning shot of Enterprise or Bill Shatner’s hairpiece.
the thing about Forward Unto Dawn's entry is it's not just some cutscene or pre-rendered or anything like that, that's during gameplay that it happens, and thus a whole bunch of trickery was involved in its making:
first the ship itself, it comes in from bloody far away, and there are 3 ways that was likely achieved: 1) a masked transition from a skybox element to the 3d model, 2) making FUD render outside the game's normal render distance (a flag for ignoring render distance would make this trivial) and 3) (and most likely, though possibly also combined with one of the other two methods) spawning FUD's model really tiny and making it grow instead of moving it to make it appear to be approaching
second as the ship approaches a shockwave pushes _everything_ in the level that has physics, that sort of mass-scale application of physics hadn't really been done in a Halo game before. and to add to that if you pay attention to the surroundings as FUD arrives you'll notice not everything gets pushed at the same time, things closer to the cliff FUD approaches from get pushed slightly sooner than the stuff further away, meaning the volume used to apply the push likely either had to expand or move across the map
third and probably my favourite: FUD will the proceed smack you for gawking too long and too close by dropping multiple scorpions and warthogs onto your face
and there's probably a whole lot more that only Bungie could know about
Another honorable mention: spaceship reveal in Stargate SG-1, where Apophis reveals several of his cloaked ships to Heru’er and annhilates him; Also, the first time the Ori ships exit the Supergate and wreak havoc on the heroes’ fleet.
I was looking for the Imperial Stardestroyer from Star Wars/A New Hope. It set the standard for any movie that followed.
Or the Super Star Destroyer.
And another suggestion if you haven't already done it...the reveal of the titular Titan from Titan A.E. Alternatively, the scene where it forms planet Bob.
I absolutly agree with rocinante being on place one, although i would have loved to see the donnager reveal aswell
Be somewhere else! POW!
I think a pretty cool ship reveal was the alien mothership from Battleship when rises from the water

@@VulpisFoxfire yes, part two does. :)
