The Enterprise Gets All Wet on Fan 'Star Trek Into Darkness' Poster

How do you make anything sexier than it already is? Strip it down and splash water on it. It even works for sexy sci-fi technology, like the USS Enterprise. Am I right? Okay, that may be taking it too far, but this is pretty cool. There's a poster going around the web to compliment the latest kick ass action-packed trailer for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek Into Darkness that just popped up out of nowhere this past weekend. Similar to other Star Trek movie art all it shows is the Enterprise, splashing its way out of water, which is a part of the opening IMAX prologue and seen in the new trailer. I like it, but I almost feel this could be a bit better.

Thanks to tips from SlashFilm and The Film Stage on this new Into Darkness teaser poster. Your thoughts?

Update: As presumed, this is likely just a fan-made poster. Still fun to see, but not official studio artwork.

When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated everything the fleet stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis. Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a "one man weapon of mass destruction."

Star Trek Into Darkness is the sequel to the J.J. Abrams-directed reboot of Gene Roddenberry's original science fiction series. The screenplay this time was co-written by Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman & Damon Lindelof. Most of the crew is back, including Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin & John Cho. Paramount is bringing Into Darkness to theaters May 17th this summer.

"Am I right? Okay, that may be taking it too far, but this is pretty cool." LOL. That poster is fucking sick though.

Why does the Enterprise have to crash in just about every other movie? Or is it a bathtime toy now?

  there is a shot in the trailer where Scotty sees a sea creature...it indicates the Enterprise is underwater.

  And it isn't so far-fetched... the "new" 1701 appears to be slightly higher tech than the original 1701 - and the Voyager was able to go atmospheric, so underwater isn't totally out there.
Baron the Curse

I didn't think the Enterprise was capable of atmosphere flight. Cool poster though.

Didn't they hide the Enterprise in the water before in the whale movie or was that the park?
- VAharleywitch
  
  It was a park - and it was a Klingon Bird of Prey. The Enterprise was then toast, and they hadn't received the 1701-A (that was end of 4, iirc - right after the reveal of the Federation traitors.
Lando

every new guy that takes on the franchise HAS to destroy the enterprise for literal meaning..its a new trek with new characters etc etc.. (I hope that same logic leads to the killing of Luke Han and Leia in the new star wars!!!) must be done
