The “Adama Maneuver” AKA “Bucket Drop” should have made this list.
SO SAY WE ALL!
Absolutely. Scary as hell and perfectly timed.
The most amazing scene in the series.
@@shawnpeterson3386 The most amazing scene in ANY series!
You missed the arrival of the White Star fleet and Minbari cruisers at Babylon 5.
"Only one human captain has ever survived battle with a Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives; be somewhere else."
Best entrance ever.
My thought too.
Someone didn't read the description. Solo ships only, fighters are counted with their carrier.
@@Talon1124 Yeah, there should be another video specifically for fleet arrivals. In which case that moment would be #1. Somewhere on the list should be when the Defiant and IKS Rotarran join the Federation fleet after abandoning Deep Space Nine. If not that, the sudden appearance of the Klingons during the big fleet battle to retake DS9
@@Talon1124 One White Star, three heavy cruisers. White Star is not a fighter.
@@spoogemop Read it again. SOLO. SHIP. ARRIVALS. 3 cruisers is technically a FLEET ARRIVAL. Regardless of the White Star being a fighter or not.
Enterprise D dreadnought in “all good things”
The arrival of Delenn and the Minbari cruisers in Severed Dreams will always be my #1
That's a fleet though, and not a single ship. Should be for a different list.
It's from a video game, but still: Halo 4 Spartan Ops the reveal of the USNC Infinity. In a franchise where the Earth ships were always outsized and outgunned, we're for introduced to a walk thru showing just how massive the ship is. Not only is the ship filled with fighters and transports, it serves as a Spartan base with training facilities, tanks and artillery and the coolest AI in the franchise. Then when its time to show what the ship can do it exits hyper space by running through a Covenant Super carrier and then launches a squadron of frigates.
The reveal of the Enterprise-A in Star Trek IV is one of my favorites
THIS
Being in a theater on opening day, filled with screaming and cheering nerds is one of my fondest memories.
Oh yes, absolutely. Even though it was the first Star Trek movie I ever saw at 7 years old, and I had seen it literally hundreds of times since,... seeing it during a screening at the STLV convention last year, the moment still had tears running down my face. Easily the greatest moment, and the only appearance of Mr. Michael Okuda's first ever production work.
Stealing the Enterprise, Star Trek III, and when they backed through the space doors will aways be my # 1 reveal.
Agree, the arrival of the Enterprise to the spacedock with damages from the Battle of Mutara is superb
"Damn you, Lee."
"Thank you, Lee."
"Never could read your handwriting."
Pegasus saving Galactica would have been my number two spot, only beaten for the top spot by the Adama Manoeuvre over New Caprica. Not just for the visual spectacle of 6 million tons of battlestar burning through the atmosphere, spewing Vipers as she plummeted towards the ground, but for the emotianal, air punching payoff too after cliffhanging us at the end of Season 2 and giving us months suspense between seasons and then weeks of build up, wondering how the hell Adama was going to pull off the rescue.
But hey, this isn't my list
i still chock up seeing the ol' reliable 1701D
Sadly, missing one of the greatest arrival's in movie history: The arrival of the Millennium Falcon during the trench run on the original Death Star.
A few other mentions: Thor’s ship Beliskner appears for the first time on Stargate; The reveal of the Super Star Destroyer Executor; The Ori ships pour through the Supergate; The very first shot of a Star Destroyer in A New Hope;
"The very first shot of a Star Destroyer in A New Hope". It's in there dude, watch the video.
@@Thurgosh_OGYeah. As much as I became a visual sci fi fan through Star trek, that moment on the big screen blew me away. Far as I’m concerned it should be #1.
I mean TOS Trek btw, I’m old.
I'd like to add when Galactica first found Pegasus, the exchange with Adama and Admiral Caine (Michelle Forbes) was pretty special. The tension suddenly relieved when we find out we're all one big happy fleet. Thank you too for the 1701-D in second, best thing I'd seen in years when she came back.
Seeing the Enterprise arrive at sector 001 in the theater ways epic on the big screen!!❤🖖
BSG - I've always been amazed that a space battle between enormous vessels is a tiny speck in the vastness of interstellar space
I like the reveal (To Captain Kirk, anyway) of the refit Enterprise (non-A) from ST:TMP as Scotty takes him over to the space dry dock in the shuttle pod. The visual reveal, along with the music, was absolutely breathtaking. 💙 Also, same movie, the reveal of V’Ger fighting the Klingons.
Absolutely the best.
Just straight up good old fashioned Starship Porn, and I love it. I could watch an entire feature length production of just touring that beauty inside and out.
Hard to beat the incredible score in the star trek movies. Top notch
My favorite here is #8. It was so exciting to see this for the first time in the theatre.
Where's Spaceball 1? List isn't complete without Spaceball 1.
It'd make the list too big 😋 Skroob salute!
I’ve been combing and ain’t found shit
Just when you think it can't get better you get to John Hurt's line of 'Oh no, not again' with his chest burster in the diner 😂 So many great moments
I would suggest the reveal of the _Executor_ from "Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back" for another video 😀👍.
Dude Enterprise D with ventral cannon in all good thing Star Trek Next Generation
The Roci coming to the rescue of the Razorback.
Also a hell of a battle scene.
The arrival of _Pegasus_ in the original _Battlestar Galactica_ was so much better.
"Sir, I really think you ought to see the other Battlestar." Even for a Cylon, the delivery was perfect.
It's impossible!
No, it is a battlestar.
Your #8 is literally the most iconic ship reveal in cinematic history. It should probably be #1.
Yeah, I don't get why the most epic opening scene in movie history is so low on this list!
As an opening scene, it is epic, but as a ship reveal, although great, it is not the greatest in my opinion. Also, even though it is near the bottom of this list, it is still close to the top overall, as I have another 20+ arrivals in the drafts of parts 2 and 3. The way I do these videos, making 8th in part 1 is a greater honor than 2nd in part 3 (usually).
#2: ENGAGE!
The Enterprise emerges from the ocean in the movie "Star Trek Into Darkness"
Couldn’t agree more with #1. One of my favorite moments of television, let along sci-fi ship reveals. 👍
She went out in a blaze of glory like no other.
@@BigKnGa I'll still never forgive Lee for losing the Pegasus... but at least she went out like a boss!
very good work from you , now waiting for part 2 ;)
Thank you. Reading the comments should give you a hint at what it will feature. 😉
The arrival of Martin’s ship from the clouds in Stargate in the middle of a shoot. Also the first appearance of Thor’s ship
"V" may be a bit lost on modern audiences, but the arrival of the first Mother Ship while Donovan was in the war zone was pretty epic for the time.
I agree with others, the Arrival of Delenn in the Whitestar, in Babylon 5 episode "Severed Dreams" should be here:
"This is Delenn of the Minbari, Babylon 5 is under our protection.
Withdraw, or be destroyed!"
"Negative, we have authority here.
Do not engage our ships"
"Why Not?!
Only one human captain has ever survived battle with the Minbari fleet.
He... is behind me.
You... are in front of me.
If you value your lives, be somewhere else!"
That is a fleet arrival though, not a singular ship. It is for a different list,... and surely belongs as #1 on that list.
Spoiler: They go somewhere else. Very quickly.
The Abyss.
Major miss. When the Rocinante saves the refugee ship in the Expanse.
Or in the final episode "Fuck yeah Roci!" 😊
I feel like the first sighting of the USG Ishimura in Dead Space deserves a spot. Or say when the Lewis and Clark first encounters the Event Horizon...
There's a host of great ship arrivals/reveals just in Space Battleship Yamato's remake alone. Definitely recommend checking that one out.
Couldn't agree more with #1.
That scene of Pegasus coming to the rescue with guns blazing and war drums pounding STILL gives me chills even when it plays in my head.
I enjoyed every second of this little bit of Star ships. Thank you!
#4 with the blue phasers and photons ~ THAT's how it should be!!!
Nope the enterprise d should be #1 , nobody ever thought it would be salvaged
Well... technically it wasn't. Both the secondary hull and the nacelles were from two different ships LOL
Adams maneuver was EPIC and you forgot it. Tsk tsk. Never trust Lee with anything bigger than a Viper!
He managed to break THAT as well in the first episode.
The “Adama manoeuvre”
This is a very, very hard list to do everyone likely has an arrival that wasn't on the list. I do too. The falcon at the battle of Yavin IV. Good job. The list was pretty good.
Totally agree with no1.
For honorable mention, I will propose Search for Sock - 1701 comes to Genesis, but not the ship entering, yet the smile on Marcus face when hearing from Klingon communicator - Grissom, this is Enterprise calling, please come in.
Great choice for number 1
Thank you!
Also cool was the uss defiant's arrival at ds9.
ID4 is a big old bucket of cheese and i love it, its also got one of the best ship reveals of all time.
BSG took things to another level with Adama's atmospheric drop and fighter deployment
(yeah i know theyre called vipers so stop pounding the keyboard mr or mrs "actually ")
A great list from a great selection!
I think the reveal of the SSV Normandy SR2 would've been a great addition either in honorable mentions or in the full list.
My personal favorite will always be Atlantis rising from the ocean, because nothing can beat that.
I guess it would depend on why you or anyone thought a ship arriving was special. Any ship arriving to aid in battle would be special especially unexpected. I never thought to do a similar list but I think I would include reveals that had other impact than rescues. Some would be::
The Enterprise C from Yesterday's Enterprise.
The three cloaked Klingon ships to defend the Enterprise in The Defector episode
The first view of the ship coming over Devil's Monument in CE#K
Seeing the USS Defiant in the Asteroid in Enterprise mirror universe
The arrival of the ship in the original The Day The Earth Stood Still
The shuttle approaching and docking at the space station in 2001
more to come...
My takeaway from this is that "Skywalker Films" has only ever seen one Star Wars film, never watched B5, or Lexx. None of these would even make it into my top 50.
Probably my all-time favorite 'reveal' is the Klingon BoP de-cloaking in front of the Whaling vessel...the buildup was intence, the 'flash' ("donk") makes me smile every time, then the 'reveal' sends the hairs on my arms and neck into immediate 'attention'...
80k Views! amazing video man! Congrats on 340 subs! Wow this video helped out a lot i'm guessing!
90k Views!
Oh I doubt you've seen this movie but in Home when the gorg ship arrives on earth is a really good one
Thank you; this video was a definite help. On the Gorg ship; I have seen Home, but it has been quite a while; I'll have a look at it.
Awesome Ships
Sorta wanted to see 'Thor's Chariot' showing up.
Another great scene is the arrival of the Enterprise to the spacedock with damages from the Battle of Mutara in ST : The search for Spock
And the Not-Rand woman in cafeteria giving the disapproving look of "Jim, what did you do to your ship THIS time?"
@@k1productions87 Jaja, that`s right!
So I would suggest 2. The Adama maneuvre, and the scene from Spaceballs that parodies the scene you included here
With all the stargate clips in here, I'm surprised there's no mention of Thor's Chariot.
100%, either the first time Thors Chariot shows up, OR the arrival of 3 O'Neill class battle cruisers at the end of the season 5 finale.
@@pofeed yea, that was a great scene too!
#TheAxiom! Great call out there buddy.
Rogue one …honorable mention….uh huh
Not a clue how or why that undefined black shape called Vengeance ranks higher than the Titan's first visual canon appearance, but okay.
Also, shame on you for cutting off the Pakled's "Oh, no! It's another Enterprise!"
One reason the Vengeance ranked higher than the Titan is the style of Lower Decks (particularly the people). If I liked the style more, the Titan would have ranked above the Vengeance.
@@SkywalkerFilms1927 Yeah, makes sense.
When I first started watching Lower Decks, I turned it off after seven minutes, so...
Still, I think the Vengeance would have had a much better impact if we could have actually SEEN stuff instead of just a silhouette with a blue light in the middle.
@@Azzameen99AZ you can sort of see it as one of the model ships in the admiral's office, when he gives Kirk the assignment to Kronos.
@@grigturcescu6190 I noticed that.
Which makes the admiral seem incredibly stupid.
A scale model of a top-secret project lined up on your desk where everybody can see it? How has nobody asked him about it?
Oh, right, the entirety of Starfleet in that universe is... there.
@@Azzameen99AZ i think it's more of a writer's technique. The only foreshadowing they have, a miniature. Make the movie more connected.
The real question is, how come those torps are still functional (capable of exploding) with a human inside it? Does a torpedo have so much redundancy? Because if so, they could be made a lot smaller, and starships could carry more.
I feel i have to mention the UNCF Andromeda's entrance in Space Battleship Yamato 2202 because that was probably one of the most destructive entrances of a ship in sci-fi history, i say probably because as far as what i have watched it is the most destructive but i haven't watched many things of the type so who knows what i have missed there. You could also have Yamatos reveal in 2202 and her reveal in 2199.
Might not have been mobile.... but I'm sure we all remember the appearance of the Wrecked Ship in Alien.
Best starship entry will lead be the USNS Infinite from Halo being introduced, coming out of hyperspace, cutting a Covenant Super carrier in half, and dropping figures out like fighters.
I felt feelings...
Add:
o The Serenity arrives at Mr. Universe's planet (with a whole bunch of Reaver ships) ~ Serenity
o Orion III arrives at space station ~ 2001: A Space Odyssey
o The Enterprise arrives to battle the Narada ~ Star Trek (2009)
o The Guild Highliner arrives at Arrakis ~ Dune (1984)
o The NSEA Protector leaves space dock ~ Galaxy Quest
o Ego's ship arrives to save the Guardians Of The Galaxy ~ Guardians Of The Galaxy, vol. 2
o The NSEA Protector arrives at Galaxy Quest convention ~ Galaxy Quest
o ANY T.A.R.D.I.S arrival ~ Doctor Who
o Pod arrives at alien planet ~ 2001: A Space Odyssey
o The Mothership arrives at Devil's tower ~ Close Encounters Of The Third Kind
Space Cruiser Yamato launch in episode 2 of Space Cruiser Yamato, either original or 2199 (it's the same scene).
should have had IJN Takao charging into battle against Godzilla in Godzilla minus one
Close Encounters of the Third Kind missing :)
I'm surprised to NOT find the Millenium Falcon on this list. Luke being chased down by Vader in the trench run when, from out of the sun's glare, Han and Chewie arrive to knock Vader out of the picture and clear Luke's path to destroying the original Death Star in Episode IV: A New Hope surely deserves a spot somewhere on a list made by Skywalker.
He caused my wingman to hit me, and aided the destruction of the Death Star!
That arrival will feature in part 2.
I would have had the first time we saw The Romulan Warbird in TNG
Missing the Deathstar reveal in Rogue 1
What, no love for the Space Battleship Yamato breaking free of the earth? Or for the Mother Ship rising like the sunrise over Devil's Tower?
This is HIS list not anyone else’s
Don't know if this qualifies as a reveal but first episode of Robotech "Boobytrap" when the SDF1 first fires on the Zentraedi ships.
I prefer the reveal of the Macross from the movie "Do You Remember Love". While the original Macross had better colors, the Megaroad variant just looked better, especially with the ARMD's for arms, rather than the Prometheus and Daedalus. More symmetrical. And more canonical if you include Macross Plus
"This is a starport for the ship."
They named Atlantis twice and none older than 1990s which several of these are rebooted from older shows and movies from the 1960s & 1970s.
Got lot more to go im anime fan so yamato when she breaches water for first time and fires on planet bomb
Deleen ( be somewhere else)
Enterprise from space dock and the new version of the D7 Klingon cruiser
Number one was the best choice. Thank you.
Not just the reveal but all of Picard season 3 was awesome, it felt like the send off that crew deserved. S1&2 though.....yikes
Agree...seasons 1 and 2 just CRINGE, but season 3 was like coming home and seeing old friends.
Where was Space Balls Mega Maid ship ?
The Enterprise dropping from Warp and firing a fulling battery at the Narada's torpedo salvo in Star Trek '09 is the best imo
No Spaceball 1?
I get you love Star Trek and stargate, but without a New Hope’s opening you would have none of these. Show respect it’s Number ONE, no question!!!
Visitor Motherships
Sadly, the original V has been largely forgotten by so many. Unfortunate indeed.
Ok, obviously whoever made that list just hasn't watched Babylon 5.
And the reveal of the Executor in Empire Strikes Back, hello!
You are correct, I have never seen Babylon 5. And I don't know how, but I forgot the Executors reveal.
@@SkywalkerFilms1927 Thanks Dude ;)
Please give B5 a chance. It will change how you see life itself ;) not to mention the most unique set of starships in any series with many, many reveal scenes that will give you chills
Reveal of the refit Enterprise in Star Trek the Motion Picture...but I guess that would fill the entire video! Or the arrival of the Enterprise at the end of the first season of Star Trek Discovery
This list does not include the Adama Manoeuvre and thus is the wrongest list in the galaxy. So say we all.
Sad no USS Discovery. Despite the shows reputation, she has some good scenes where she arrives. But all these are amazing nonetheless.🙌🏻
Yeah disco had problems those first couple seasons but the battle of the binary stars was amazing to watch
@@BigKnGaI agree. Season 1 was alright and had some fun moments, but it wasn’t until Season 2 that it started to pick up pace and become something. 3 is when I felt it really picked up fully.
@@galenmarek4550 I came around when they reintroduced the Guardian of Forever. That was an epic reveal
@@BigKnGa My favorite aspect of the Battle of the Binary Stars is, for the first time in ages, Starships were treated like STARSHIPS, not fightercraft. A long-ass battle, with weapons fire impacting shields, and after a sustained engagement only two starships were lost and five birds of prey. Unlike DS9 where ships blow up in single shots (my only real complaint about that particular show)
Aww, no Babylon 5?
The Abyss is missing
I think many (far too many) don't think of the NTI city as a spaceship. Even though it obviously HAS to be. Though I wish we got more screentime exploring Deep Core 2
What no Babylon 5 ships:(
The Enterprise showing up in a pre-warp civilization in ST: Strange New Worlds was good too
The arrival of the Enterprise to help Spock against the Narada (Star Trek 2009). Spock facing a hail of fire, the Enterprise warps in with phasers blasting!
Yeah the falcon and rebel ships showing up to save the day in the last star wars movie should have been in the list
I'm featuring that scene in a separate video, with fleet arrivals.
Discovery arrives to stop the Klingon attack on a mining colony
WHAT? NOTHING from Babylon 5? Your list is incomplete!
Its hard for someone to add something from a show they themselves had never seen.
@@k1productions87 Then you must think sci-fi is only Star Wars and Star Trek.
@@brianehni5918 How did you come to that absurd conclusion? Here, let me spell it out more simply
The person who created this video had said they had not seen Babylon 5 before. So they did not know about any moments from that show
Clearer now?
Honourable mention, the reveal of Enterprise and the reveal of the actual movie, Star Trek 2009, first teaser trailer
Bollox
Also, an honorable mention could be the reveal of the Enterprise in Star Trek Discovery... how they dropped clues about which starship was joining the Discovery, until the final full view of the Enterprise and the awe of everyone, including the audience, and the Alexander Courage fanfare to complete the scene.
Honorable mention: the first appearance of Spaceball 1.
Honorable mention: Kelvin timeline USS Enterprise rising from the atmosphere of Jupiter.
Honorable mention: Kelvin timeline. The Romulan Nerada emerging from the wormhole.
Honorable mention: the remains of the Thermian homeworld in Galaxy Quest.
What millenial fidget spinner nonesense is this? Enterprise reveal from STTMP and beginning of Star Wars.
The beginning of Star Wars IS on the list.
@k1productions87 Yes but not at number 2 or 1.
@@craighouse1279 Yeah, not number 2 or 1.
You were already proven wrong about it not being on the list.
Atlantis rising rules out all, especially the lame-o crappy Entershice-D
