So you want to establish your Cool Spaceship's power and destructive potential? Easy! Just have it enter the screen (usually from the top) and sloooooowly crawl forward. For extra drama have the ship suddenly appear in the distance with a small flash of light after coming out of hyperspace and then slowly crawl forward. Compare Fighter-Launching Sequence and Emerging from the Shadows. Sister Trope of Standardized Space Views. See also Dramatic Alien VTOL. |

Ultraman Tiga's opening sequence features a showcase of Earth Defence Force GUTS's various vehicles (and a few shots of the eponymous Ultraman). The centerpiece, however, is the launch sequence of GUTS' mothership Artdessei, which is interspersed throughout the opening. It has her start out sitting in drydock before rolling out to the elevator shaft, rising up said shaft, etc. It culminates with her takeoff, wings unfolding just as the theme song swells into its chorus. The classic underbelly shot is the very next one, with the ocean below and the shore on the horizon. Then finally, a frontal shot of her climbing into orbit with the Earth in the background, before Tiga takes centre stage. Very much appropriate, as her design is essentially a cross between a Star Destroyer and a whale. | |

A non animate version of this is used in Wonder Woman (1987) when the sabotaged stranded in space vessel Diana and Natasha are on gets picked up by a huge Sangtee Empire ship. The imposing expanse of the ship coming in from "above" their tiny vessel looses some of its intimidation factor on second glance when it becomes apparent the thing looks like a misshapen whale, in accordance with the way all Sangtee Empire ships look a bit like mechanical sea life. | |

The sequel series to Armor Hero has an egregiously long shot at the start of episode 32 that takes a full two minutes. Half is spent viewing it from the classic angle (the bottom), and the other half is spent viewing it from the top. | |

Red Dwarf, particularly the epic opening titles used for series 1 and 2. It's too much of an homage to Star Wars to be merely coincidental. And despite the tone of Red Dwarf the rest of the time, the establishing shot was a completely straight example. |

The Last Jedi changes it up with a planetary establishing shot, the camera zooming right past the Resistance fleet in orbit over D'Qar to focus on the base they are abandoning. Soon after, we get a standard shot when the First Order Dreadnought Fulminatrix drops out of hyperspace and prepares to attack, her behemoth size contrasted by the numerous Star Destroyers dwarfed by her presence. | |

Halo: Halo: Combat Evolved opens with the Pillar of Autumn floating by as it approaches Alpha Halo. Most of the games do this at least once, such as the assault carrier and In Amber Clad in Halo 2, and the Long Night of Solace supercarrier in Halo: Reach. Halo 4 does this several times with the Infinity, sometimes with an escort fleet, and with the Didact's ship. Halo Infinite opens similarly to Combat Evolved, with the Infinity floating by as it approaches Zeta Halo — but immediately after it enters the frame, it quickly gets pulverized by a fleet of Banished warships. |

The first scene after the Illusive Man's office in the second is the Normandy exiting hyperspace and flying towards the camera. Turns into a Bait-and-Switch when said ship is completely destroyed mere moments later. The first establishing shot of the new ship is when it is still in drydock. The dock lights gradually turn on as the camera slowly tracks down the hull of the ship. | |

All five of the Star Wars Legends novels in The Thrawn Trilogy and the Hand of Thrawn duology by Timothy Zahn start aboard the Imperial Star Destroyer Chimaera, employing this Trope by inference. In fact, every single Zahn Star Wars novel save for Outbound Flight (which opens with a light freighter in space) and Thrawn (which completely averts this trope) opens with a Star Destroyer in flight. |

The long panning shot of the Republic Venator-class Star Destroyer in Revenge of the Sith subverts this, as it ends to reveal hundreds of warships fighting the Battle of Coruscant in the distance, showing that this ship isn't particularly special. Yes, George Lucas loves this trope. | |
