Galaxy Quest

With some practice, the actor playing the ship's pilot becomes an expert pilot and destroys Sarris's ship by dragging magnetic mines onto it. Sarris beams over in disguise to kill the crew, but the Captain uses the Omega 13 (a device which rewinds time by 13 seconds) to undo the deaths and attack Sarris while he is still in disguise. The ship crash-lands in the Galaxy Quest convention centre, where the crew get out; Sarriss also gets out, is mistaken for an alien in costume, and killed by a phaser blast. A new series of Galaxy Quest is announced in which the "red shirt" actor plays the Head of Security and his Thermian girlfriend also gets a part.

Factual error: Laredo drives the ship out of the starship docking station and scrapes the main hull on the walls. This would not be possible without either scraping the wings first, as they are much wider than the main ship, or turning nearly sideways, which they clearly don't.

Trivia: In interesting contrast to Guy's frequent ranting about how he, as the only unnamed character, will be the first to die, in the sequence where Sarris enters the command deck and shoots everyone, Guy is the only crewmember who is NOT shown getting shot.

Question: In the film's trailer, I saw several scenes and special effects that were not in the final cut. Does anyone know about these shots? I am assuming they were cut close to the films release to cut back on time.

Answer: There didn't seem to be any special f/x that were in the trailer that weren't included in the film itself. The only shots that were certainly not in the film was the opening shot that shows the aliens watching one of the Galaxy quest shows and when the narrator introduces Sigourney Weaver where she is showing off her chest (which is a deleted scene on the DVD). Your explanation of why they are not there is the most likely reason they were cut.
