I'm assuming he is referring to that building right of John in the poster.

Yup.  The cucumber is a big massive tower in London that just happens to look like a cucumber.

It also happens to be very divisive.  Some love it, some hate it.

Doesn't matter what she looks like.  She's still an Enterprise, and there's nothing worse than the idea of an Enterprise falling before her time.  The Enterprise-D is my least favorite Enterprise design, and I still hated to see her crash on Veridian III.

Looks more Excelsior to me.  A bit bigger, yes.  And were those...Starfleet issue RAILGUNS on that monstrosity?!

Meh.  As good as the cast are, I still hate that boat and if it does get taken out then I won't be particularly sad to see it go. One of the commenters on that page said he "got a lump" in his throat when he heard Scotty say that the ship is dead.  I was quite the opposite!  A lot of the designs they made for JJtrek are pretty interesting imo, but that ent...... :Shakeshead:
 I think it'll survive this film though.

I like that wetsuit Uhura is wearing though.  The klinks look great too!  I have to admit that I didn't realise it was Spock running through San Francisco. When I saw the trailer  I thought it was Bones!

Gotta admit, I really loved JJ's Ent when we saw it in motion, it's grown on me a lot. I doubt it'll go though, it's supposed to be the first in the line of Enterprise's and they know they'd just piss everyone off if the killed it.

That big ship... where the hell did that come from? Wasn't the Ent supposed to be the newest kid on the block, and this movie is set only less than a year later or something like that? Looks interesting though, very Excelsior-ish. "Though some have said it looks like the D or E. Crazy people need to go and watch TNG.

Looking forward to picking this up on blu-ray. :D

He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,

His star trek
Will go on forever.

While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

What is known is that it is the Dreadnought Class(i.e. Star Empire) though it very well could be named Excelsior instead. A very different birth for the ship we know and love no thanks to Nero and the Narada. This ship unlike the Enterpries is purely for dishing out the pain. Clearly a response to the possibility of facing such a threat again. Sure it looks like Harrison may be in the chair but I believe that may actually be Adm. Marcus's secret flagship. It does scream covert/stealth vessel afterall. Maybe not S31 but who knows. The balls that shoot missles and the BFGs(that shoot said balls?) are pretty crazy even compared to the Narada.

Speaking of Star Empire, take the synapsis for that book and compare to what we know about this movie. Replace Lt. Piper with Carol Marcus and you've got a convincing argument that they are using that novel as a basis.
All hail the messiah!

It's the side view that made me think of the D when I first saw it.  I can see the excel resemblance though.
