Star Trek: Every Enterprise Destruction (Movies) 

I see four bikes!

@@annoyed707 Unterrated comment!

Those damn CAPTCHAs

Kirk: I’m NOT a rooooboooot!

@@annoyed707 Ooh, that's good!

I agree, though I didn't see any of them in the theater.

That one broke the mold because until then, the Enterprise was indestructible.

Kirk sums it all up, "My God Bones...what have I done?"

@@themattheweston “What you had to do, what you always do… Turn death into a fighting chance to live.”

I don't know...I grew up with the original films, I've seen all of them on my own numerous times throughout my teens and adult years and I never felt terrible about her destruction to save his best friend and while Kirk may have had some feelings of PURE UNADULTERATED grief for blowing up the Enterprise, I cried more over her destruction in Beyond. Perhaps it's because she was something I grew up loving and I knew thy got her back after Search for Spock, verses that total destruction she fell to in Beyond. Like just...Beyond was like losing one of your dearest friends as you watch her fall.

Gotta love practical effects

it was a good way to simulate the destruction without investing millions of dollars in an alternate way. added to that, cgi was expensive itself and would have just cost too much for a scene that short.

@@control467 Not to mention just plain non-existent. This was 1984. ILM had probably done a grand total of three minutes of CGI up to that point, most of it in the previous "Star Trek" movie, and maybe one short film from what would eventually become Pixar.

love it. but theres a good chance that the ejection system failed like every other time the warp core has so much as a scratch. in fact, I think that voyager is the only ship to successfully eject its core when it was damaged

Oh god this is the best thing I’ve ever read about Star Trek

Riker: Ummm? About Troi... did I mention I let her drive the ship through all this? Picard: Stares blankly at his tea and sobs

Sickbay prepare for an emergency site-to-site transport we have a patient coming in suffering from extreme burns!

@@andrewtaylor940 Picard slowly raises his head, his eyes meeting Riker's. Picard: "It's alright, her flying the enterprise is still better than your stupid Riker maneuver two years from now. I mean come on Will, lazily drifting by a few ships spewing out gas and then setting it on fire doesn't deserve to be named after you. At least when I get a maneuver named after me I actually did something cool. Picard Maneuver? U.S.S. Stargazer? Micro-warp jump? Ship appears in two places at once? No? Back to the academy Will. You can bunk with Wesley!"

science fiction i guess we cool rename this buy space fiction because there is no science x)

Yes

And the ship is not designed well either

And loaded with rocks

The Union of Terran Nations REALLY should require OSHA to certify Starfleet's safety regulations...🙄 On the other hand, OSHA would NEVER cleared the Death Star I, Death Star II, Starkiller Base, the Onslaught, OR all those Death Star Penis Cannon Destroyers either. Fair's fair!....😁

You know it is possible to construct a sentence that doesn’t end in an exclamation mark.

@@philbertchow5425 Here end's the lesson for today.

How did you get the time tag black?

​@@aysartheuglysquidfan ctrl f

More poignant was, "My God (Bones), what have I done?". This was what the pilot of Enola Gay said (except for 'Bones') as he dived his aircraft, opened throttles to max and raced away from the nuclear blast as he dropped in anger the first atomic bomb.

Hey at least we got reparations for generations many years later but the original Enterprise-D will never be replaced in my heart..

Slightly reminiscent of the Jupiter 2's crash scene from the original Lost In Space. I've always wondered if that was a deliberate inspiration or a happy coincidence.

Still my favorite design of the enterprise.

Depend on every person opinion, me for example, i prefer the Kelvin Enterprise than the Refit Enterprise 🙂because how look it realistic is But still the TMP looks pretty good

NCC-1701-D. Enterprise. Galaxy Class Starship. ... "It's only a model" ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m3dZl3yfGpc.html

Absolutely. It was home.

I've got good news dude.

enterprise D destroyed - a weird timeline you are in

They should have blown up the D way sooner, and gotten a better design out of the entire thing...like during the first episode...with all of the cross eyed kids and parents dying...then the rule of families on Starfleet ships would have been revoked, and only military crews would have been allowed on board. Just think of all of the irritating Picard/child interactions we could have been spared over the years.

The first time I saw the destruction of the refit Enterprise I cried. I knew that Kirk had to prevent Genesis from falling into Klingon hands, but he had always used the auto-destruct as a bluff in the original series. This time it wasn't a bluff, and seven Klingons died not knowing they had been played. Watching it again is a stab in the heart even now.

Me too.. i was there.. in a real theatre .. young..

Watching the Enterprise get destroyed in Beyond. I have become so desensitized I didn't care that much.

I agree wholeheartedly...I saw SFS in the theater when I was 9 and the 1701 destruction scene was traumatic. Never understood how the ship went from being the state of the art in TMP to an obsolete design by the third film. For me at the time It was like watching your home get destroyed.

@@KrypticSpiderMan don't worry though the frankiln revenged krall, also enterprise did not die. Yorktown built it again. But enterprise falling is the most sad scene, i agree.

they changed their shield frequency in like 10 episodes, but never thought to do it here.

That ALWAYS bothered me. "Mr. Worf, remodulate shield harmonics." BOOM. Bye Bye Klingons! Picard would have done that ;)

Who cares about Riker's promotion. He's just the Captain's Parrot. The question should be why Starfleet Captains don't become legendary and aren't remembered by history until after they've blown up a few of their own ships. Along with the question of why Starfleet Command keeps giving them free replacements.

P Starfleet as literal limitless resources. A few lost ships are not a big deal to replace. How do you think between Wolf 359 and the Dominion war they managed to go from "Our forces are spread thin and 40 ship of which half are outdated is the best we can do" to "We can organize a fleet of hundred of ships in under a day".

8:11 Enterprise vs The Matrix robots!!!

Hope so :)

What about the fucking tree's man

I call BS on that one.

No wildlife or trees were harmed. But millions of pixels were brutally murdered.

No constitution Classes or any ships were harmed, but 9001 BILLION pixels were genocided

James Furr I would love to disagree. If you are a middle-school student, on the spectrum, and easily amused, it still wouldn’t even come close to being a great line.

@@dightonazpeitia4350 i see you grew up with no sense of humor. Im so sorry

James Furr No it’s just that I was done with that by 14 years old. Popping for people who said “shit,” was like giggling whenever someone ripped a fart. Ya gotta grow up man.

@@dightonazpeitia4350 my bad bro. My bad for seeing humor in the small things rather then seeing the world for what it truly is. A fucked up place. Yeah ill stop trying to enjoy the small things that make me laugh. Not everyones cold like you dude

James Furr True talk.

They left the destruction code on factory settings! 😂

"Computer, authorization code 12345...Destruct."

Amazing! I have the same code on my luggage!

@@alexholden2512 Remind me to keep some safety distance if I should ever be around when you open your luggage! :P

Hey...how did you know my luggage code?! Lol

Or they could have remembered that shields and weapons automatically remodulated regularly as part of changes to standard procedure after encountering the Borg.

five seconds after remodulation: "they have set shield modulations to 387.5" "adjusting our torpedo's to match 387.5"

@@SkyCharger001 The time they have to take to make their torpedoes might be enough to finish them. The point is, Riker did not do such a simple procedure.

@@SkyCharger001 they could just have set the tp remodulate randomly like they have done while fighting the borg so meny times.

The issue is, they were pretty much done for after the first torpedo volley. The Klingons knew what they were doing; they aimed specifically at the engineering section to take out the ship's critical systems immediately. Assuming they'd even be able to remodulate their shields with all of the damage they took, the warp core would have breached either way.

It's @ 5:00 really.

I would have the same response if half of a starship plummets down to plant at that speed. No, I'd probably scream my head off like KSI 🤣🤣.

phil laird: really!? THAT was your favourite part?

It's so out of character. He shouldn't said something that exhibit emotion.

boulderbash19700209 I’m pretty sure he has got the emotions chip in this movie he got it at the start

Your right , beckets death in pirates of the Caribbean was awesome

It was slow and hurt at every step. First ripping of the nacelles, crippling the ship. Then they had to detach the saucer to escape and finally the heartbreaking crash on the planet.

It was really well done. It's also kind of sad knowing it was Anton Yelchin's last movie. Taken in the prime of his life as a rising star.

At least it was realistic...take out those skinny damn pylons, then the skinny damn neck. Hey Starfleet...redesign your ships to prevent such a terrible destruction method.

It was brutal seeing the crew get sucked into space

Matthew Crum well said

May the haters come I actually liked the new design, it looked futuristic, the hull took inspiration from the TOS and TMP Enterprise, while the bridge mixed elements from TNG and TOS, like that Elevator/Corridor on the bridge

tyn833 Here here.....

Lu1z 4 3v3r It was a parellal universe, (I'm lead to believe)

Beautiful reply, but the reboot Enterprise destruction was so emotionless....no real connection to the ship since it NEVER ONCE won an engagement, constantly was abused or placed in jeopardy, and the bulk of the movie settings were away from the ship, so no real connection was ever formed. It was a waste to me.

@@StarWarriorCentral well it wasn’t directed by Abrams so that’s why it’s good

@@DogsRNice For me that was the reason I hate it. Justin Lin was the wrong choice as a director. That movie had no business passing itself off as a 50th anniversary gift to “Star Trek” fans; it was an insult.

@@cubdukat why do you think it an insult, and why was Justin Lin the wrong choice?

@@lucinavonnolaran8728 Can't wait which director they'll choose for Star Trek 4 ❤️ lately it was supposed to be 'Matt Shakman' , but he dropped out to focus on a Marvel Project

@@StarWarriorCentral go look up clips from Into Darkness, the VFX from that movie blow Beyonds out of the water. The Vengeance attacking the Enterprise is the coolest scene in any of the new movies. btw, Beyond was not a good movie. If 2009 and into darkness are the penultimate action star trek movies, then I would consider Beyond to be the silliest.

Women drivers lol

Reminds me a lot of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. The scene where Sean Connery's character shot the tail of the biplane that he and Indy were flying in. And blames in on the Nazis.

Once this Bird of Prey hits Wrap 8.8, you're going to see some serious shit!

The Happy Vulcan...can't u just call him data

אייל ג And guess who's ship they used to go back in time to 1986.

No shit!

The Flux capacitor in engineering was able to generate 1.21 gazillionwatts to get the Bird of Prey to warp 8.8 and reach 1986.

Where we going, we don’t need roads. We need a warp drive.

“When this baby hits warp 8.8...you’re gonna see some serious shit”

It also took advantage of the ship's structural elegance by carving through the three slender sections to render it all but inoperable. The big tactical error the villains made was, of course, not targeting the bridge (even the Dursa sisters were about to do so at the end).

Their voices were their passwords. The codes they entered were the method of destruction used. 000Destruct0 was to explode several charges in the saucer section, destroying the computer core and Bridge, leaving the remains of the ship an unrecoverable derelict. To be used in the proximity of a habitable planet. 000DestructOne was the unregulated release of the antimatter containment, causing a warp core breach, and creating a huge matter-antimatter explosion, and would be used in open space, away from any habitable planet, since it would destroy a huge part of the planets environment, and possibly the whole planet itself. -According to "Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise".

@Tap Dome Starfleet can't seem to learn that most enemy vessels have shields for energy based weapons and not ballistic weapons. If Starfleet did use ballistic weapons, enterprise would have been a mini Galactica.

@Tap Dome fair enough

Too easy to defeat, i guess. Make torpedoes "detect" a false proximity (by modifying phase variance, ha!) and they explode way early.

Please, they haven't even told him about the existence of the Starfleet yet. That's why you have Enterprise always doing all the work alone, even when Earth or crucial Federation assets are at stake.

Himme llen I'm guessing it was a die here or maybe get away choice.

Let also not forget that NX-01 didn't have a defector in the first season either.

Jakob Wilson: The NX-01 did have a deflector dish. It was at the front of the ship on the saucer. www.cygnus-x1.net/links/lcars/blueprints/enterprise-nx-01-deckplans/enterprise-nx-01-deckplans-sheet-5.jpg - Look at feature 24

Boheefus Jr Did the Phoenix have a deflector? I know it was the first human warp drive but I don't remember seeing one on it.

I agree. I think it's the best film of the rebooted films

Heck yeah, THE SWARM APPROACHES MENACINGLY

I saw it in the theater and it was quite sad to see the old girl blow up but it was a writer's ploy at the time since back then the Enterprise was a cast member but after that it was just a ship with letters behind it . I know it sounds stupid to younger fans but watch the original show and you catch my drift and know what I mean .

Dan Reese i know how you feel

:'c

I'm pretty sure that's the Enterprise-A.

NCC 1701 No Bloody A,B,C or D

how boisterous was the booing after Kirk's death?

I sure did when I went to see it and I still do when I watch it

NCC-1701 The Original that one was the best, the most meaningful. The rest were just over acting.

What you have to do Jim. What you always will. Turn death into a fighting chance to live.

The first Enterprise was a cast member the rest were just meaningless letters . I liked how the B +C looked but we never got to see much of them . .

And you may ask yourself, MY god Bones, what have I done? Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down...

I said and still say that when I watch Beyond and I quote De Kelly's Bones saying "What you had to do. What you always do. Turned death into a fighting chance to live.

Have you always multiplied your repair estimates by a factor of four?

@@c5d53g2e Buffer time.

Ahh, yes, the Frankenprise.

Or the saucer from Enterprise D, Nacelles and Engines from USS Syracuse, and the drive section from a third galaxy class and have a Mean Gray Borg fighting machine.

I didn't mind it, looks more like a "muscle car" in comparison to the original(s). A suitable "character" for a sci-fi/action/adventure styled movie. As long as you don't take a close look inside, try to figure out how all that big spacious stuff is supposed to fit in there, then it looks ugly.

I agree when it comes to the 2009 version. The 2016 version of NCC-1701 was just flat out disgusting imo. That being said, NCC-1701-A for the Kelvin timeline was absolutely beautiful, and looked so much like the original we all know and love.

You’re not alone

I like the 2009 enterprise also tbh

new enterprise design was amazing, much smoother and cleaner. what you'd expect of a futuristic starship with an actual reactor space. It's also shown how the ship is new compared to the rest of starfleet in the movie design with how white it is compared to every other ships hull. It shows the beginning of a new era which started when the kelvin was destroyed by the narada.

*walks out of the bathroom* WTF JUST HAPPENED!!!!!

Walks out of bathroom No one is on ship OOOOO SHIT!

Star Trek Generations had great practical effects for the saucer and the planet. Star Trek Beyond had great sound design that perfectly conveyed the sheer scale of the Enterprise (and also a score that perfectly complements the action in the film). And Star Trek III packed a huge punch to the heart.

Honestly beyond is badiclly what we do with action figures when we’re younger. Just smash than into shit. The enterprise loses its dish, than engines, gets split in FUCKING half, suffers like 1000 hull breaches, crashes onto a planet, and flips over.

Its the USS Enterprise, enterprise is a name of a show.

She took one hell of a beating. And kirk stayed on board her until he was the last living officer left. And I did like the call back to the Constitution class having a separation ability.

@@TheCrackedFirebird And knowing that what's (not, will, might, don't give a crap about this story) gonna be a simulateus NA NFL piston kick right to the knackers from Pike & THEN revealing the Talosian less "baddies" & more or less folks whose combination of immortality, boredom & the telepathic ability of a 1000 Charles Xavier plus 20!

Like the hyperdrive scene in "The Last Jedi"...Not gonna spoil it further.

U dont need the deflector for warp.

You have navigational deflectors running. Those protect the ship from micro-meteors when traveling at a high rate of speed, lest a small rock is hit that would leave anything from a dent in the hull to something much worse, a hole through the entire ship.

Dan Trigona The warp drive in star trek works different then in real world. If you go on warp the ship creates a warpbubble which allow you to enter a Layer of the subspace. In subspace there are no particles which can crush into the ship. But if you use the impulsedrive you need a deflector dish because full impulse is 0.93 % of warp one (for galay class). But if you want to go on warp in our world you need a deflector dish because we have no subspace

8:11 Enterprise vs The Matrix robots!!!

A crash at that speed with all those people getting thrown head first in all directions I'm surprised anyone survived

Kj16V that's because of the GENESIS planet's gravity otherwise it probably would've burned up or exploded to finish the self destruct sequence

I tend to agree. With all the antimatter being carried, the Enterprise should've been vaporized.

Is it scientifically accurate? No. I would argue, though, that seeing it slowly disintegrate as it streaks across the sky is more dramatic and emotional than it just blowing up.

If they detonated the warp core, as a destruct would more likely be, it would have also adversely affected the planet below as well as the only other ship in orbit, and therefore eliminating their means of escape. While the ship may have looked largely intact externally, internally it was completely ripped up and melted away. Also, note as the dead hulk goes flying toward the screen after the fireball. It is flying past in the same orientation as the original series enterprise in the very first version of the opening credits. If only to tug the feels a bit harder

I have a theory. Kirk is a good tactician. I think he worked out a plan that worked perfectly. (In the movie, Kirk asked Sulu how many Klingons there was. Sulu said there was a dozen officers and men. Kirk then replied that some of them were on the planet surface.) Kirk knew the Enterprise was a lost cause and already planned to steal the Klingon ship from the beginning due to the fact the Enterprise was severely damaged and was considered a "sitting duck." So Kirk agreed to surrender the ship and to allow the Klingons to board the Enterprise. Then, Kirk, Scotty and Chekov ordered the ships destruction by using a specific destruct code designed to destroy the saucer section only. (Assuming the Constitution Class has separation abilities.) This would be needed, for example if they were to split the ship and use the two halves as two different vectors of attack in battle. If the saucer happened to get invaded - they would need to be able to destruct the saucer if the crew was unable to fend off the invaders. If their only means of self destruct was solely in the secondary hull - then they would have no way to self destruct the saucer section once the ship has been separated. This would cause the ship, in essence, to fall into enemy hands and allow the enemy to learn about Starfleets technology. This wouldn't seem right. If they had set the warp core to breach due to an anti-matter explosion, it would not only completely annihilate the Enterprise but it would highly risk destroying the Klingon ship as well since the destruction of the Enterprise was suppose to be an "sneak maneuver." The Klingon ship may not have escaped an anti-matter explosion in time to avoid destruction at that point - being at close proximity to the Enterprise. (In the movie, you can see the Klingon ship moving away from the Enterprise as the destruction is happening. The Klingon commander was obviously caught off guard. I would think an anti-matter explosion would just take a couple of seconds if not instantly after the countdown has reached zero to destroy the entire ship; along with anything close to it. Also, notice after the final explosion of the Enterprise that the saucer section is the only part of the ship that is partially destroyed and severely damaged? The secondary hull is completely intact except for the scarring from the explosion. You can even see mini explosions and fire from within the saucer as the hull is burning away - something you do not see at all happening to the secondary hull. This leads me to believe the destruct was focused on the saucer section by design. If it were a saucer only destruction, it would seem logical to conclude that the secondary hull would not be anywhere near the saucer during the saucer sections destruction. This would explain why the saucer is partially destroyed and severely damaged and the secondary hull is not.) So, with that said. The 'saucer only' destruction would ensure that the Klingon ship would not be destroyed - while successfully wiping out the majority of the Klingon crew that boarded the Enterprise. Kirk and crew would then arrive on the surface; take care of the remaining Klingons and then take over the Klingon ship since they would have out numbered the Klingons at that point. They would then go to Vulcan to complete their personal mission. This is just my theory... (Additional. Some would say "Well. They were using the same destruct code in the TOS episode "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield." Why would they only wish to destroy only the saucer then?" Answer: I don't know. It's just my theory. :) )

lol a very good one xD

@@n.w.1803 Oooooookay.....

Because he got older. Have you heard him talk now? Can barely understand him.

Comedic relief

To make him seem more Russian I suppose.

After I left my other comment, I heard him say that his accent automatically got thicker as he got older. He said the same thing happened with his dad

Babylon 5 playing Vestr took a toll

I think your missing the point. These clips are the final deaths of the ships.

But to be honest, the A was basically the same as the original

Was that in a movie? No.

Adam Demgar The title did say movies only

Think it meant final destruction. In cause and effect the episode ended with the ship still intact

Yeah Anthony, that´s what I said, thru.

The problem is in the Kelvin timeline they never found the planet where they mined the materials that make up plot armour.....

In part it's because they want to keep redesigning everything because every egomaniac director wants to make everything "his." When all spaceships were models, they changed too little, and had to be "reset" for the next movie or episode. So damage was never dramatic enough because they didn't want to wreck the model. But when everything became CGI the opposite problem happened. Now there is a major refit every fifteen minutes. In-universe, the original Enterprise being converted to the Motion Picture era version took 18 months and they even cut it short because of the V'ger crisis. Now they redraw the whole thing because they feel like it, without even offering any in-universe explanation as to why, how, or when. I swear everything has turned stupid.

Its been that way since 1982. Wrath of Khan - torn to shreds Search for Spock - Self Destruct Voyage Home - Crash in the ocean Undiscovered Country - torn to shreds and decommissioned Generations - Core Breach and Crash First Contact - nearly Assimilated and nearly Destructed Nemesis - torn to shreds and ripped nearly in half so yeah, not just a Kelvin Timeline thing here

Curious Cat 7:53 this might as well be the Enterprise vs. the flying robots from The Matrix!

Because he had his emotion chip in

I thought he said "to hell with the orders" in First Contact.

the jj abram trylogy is very cool. so no i think they know startrek

Even if they had, they couldn’t have used anything. When Viacom and CBS divorced, Trek was split into two separate entities: “Movie Trek” and “TV Trek,” and with very narrow exceptions, neither one could use elements from the other. That was why you had “Discovery ‘s” Klingons look completely different from the Klingons we all know and love. Fortunately that’s no longer the case, now that Viacom and CBS remarried. I dare say we’ll be seeing more continuity. Discovery was already moving that way last season.

Did you even watch her death in Beyond? It was pretty explicitly emotional, having the same atmosphere as the death of a main character.

Don't forget "Captain goes down with the ship." Something Kelvin Timeline Kirk didn't do. TOS Kirk, Picard, Sisko and Janeway, who went down with it twice if I remember right all would have. New Kirk isn't half the Captain half those Captains are.

Ladderthief1 “Captain goes down with his ship” is a dumbass idea from the very start of it, especially when the captain can’t actually do anything to help the situation, so I’m not sure I blame him.

so there no emotion in the jj movi?? serious the music the actor director the comedian the scene direction the light the spetial effect. all are in the best to transmit the sadness. you don't need a ''what we done with'' you just need to look the kurk's face with the music and the picture and you feel he's sadness
