Star Trek: Nemesis Trailer to Premiere Tonight

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the even-treks-don't-suck dept.

savagexp writes "Dark Horizons is reporting that the trailer for the next Star Trek movie will premiere tonight on Entertainment Tonight and via the official website tonight at 7:30 EST." Makes me wish I could stomach ET, or at least had some real bandwidth. Hopefully it'll get placed in front of some of the movies coming in the next few weeks (maybe MiB2?)

      Looks like it will: 'The "Star Trek: Nemesis' trailer will then launch online in conjunction with the official movie Web site. Both will go live at 7:30 p.m. PDT/10:30 p.m. EDT Wednesday, with the trailer in the QuickTime format (Courtesy of Apple -- please see link below [it just points to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/]). The trailer will be available in small, large and full-screen sizes (QuickTime Pro 5 required for full-screen viewing). Additional streaming formats will also be available soon. The movie Web site will be accessible via STARTREK.COM."

    The public premier was last weekend in Tulsa at the Sci-Fi Con. I've got a 3" DVD of it that was given away at Tulsa.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

    First, the site isn't anti-MPAA. Many of it's users are. The site is a news and discussion forum.

    Second, not all Slashdot readers are Anti-MPAA. Some don't give a rat's ass about the issue. Some, like me, realize the issues and have come to an internal compromise. Some users haven't bought a movie ticket or DVD in years. You have to realize that there are many thousands of posters, and not all have the same opinions about issues.

    Just remember, /. is a community, but few communities hold a single viewpont on any given issue.

    Or, maybe we will be even luckier and it wont even be released in quicktime at all!

    Or maybe we will be even luckier and group of /.ers who can't differentiate between a file format and a codec will get a clue and stop bashing QuickTime when they are pissed off at Sorrenson's licensing. QuickTime is the perfect format for distributing multimedia since it is the most widely supported format. Also: old applications that used to play QuickTime movies continue to work with the new versions perfectly. You can still use MoviePlayer 2.5 to watch QuickTime 5 movies. The whole framework was is elegantly designed and very expandable. If you don't like not being ablt to watch QuickTime movies on Linux, find a better, more free codec to use and convince the trailer makers to adopt it.

    In any case the original article says:
    The "Star Trek: Nemesis" trailer will then launch online ... in the QuickTime format ... additional streaming formats will also be available soon.

    I get a 403 Forbidden when trying to get to nemesis.startrek.com (The official site). I'm sure I'm not the only one. The trailer wasn't officially up at Apple's QuickTime trailers site, but I did find it nonetheless with common sense.

    It can be found here http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/star_trek_ nemesis/

  13. Doesn't allow saving? by gbooker · · Score: 2, Informative

    Well, I got the full screen version, and it said that it doesn't allow saving. So... I did a get info on the movie, and lo and behold, there is an entry called source which is a URL. I typed this into wget, and it is downloading. For those who want to save it, here is the akamai URL:

    http://a1536.g.akamai.net/5/1536/51/979a9ce9df5cda / a1a1aaa2198c627970773d80669d84574a8d80d3cb12453c02 589f25382f668c9329e0375e81787e85abb28970c7aee1d900 465d736aa1c81ec4bb91e8bf063cc3f6ed037/star_trek_ne mesis_fs.l.mov.

    You see? It's like I've always said. You can get more with a kind word and a 2x4 than you can with just a kind word.
