I was really shook up and justifiably upset seeing the remains of a once proud and formidable Super Star Destroyer in the trailer, but thankfully I found this GEM on this still photo to make my day marginally brighter.

Oh, go on then. You can have a like for that.
Is it bad that I combed the trailer looking for that shot after reading this?
I see what you did there.
So the SSD is actually Spaceball 1?
Why are we calling it a Super Star Destroyer when it looks like a standard Imperial-class?
EDIT: Oh wait, is that what the engines the Millennium Falcon flies through are from? Holy gods, what a thing to crash-land.
Edited by UtsanomikoThat's not an SSD at the begining on the new trailer.

Nobody said it was at the beginning.

No, but that is one there at the end of it.

That's what I thought the OP was talking about too, until just after I posted and I remembered there's another massive ship near the end.
I was like "Man, between these guys and Bell of Lost Souls' Armada battle report it's like nobody knows what an Executor-class looks... Oh wait... Wait, what?"
While the loss of an Imperial Class is a tragedy, the loss of a Super Star Destroyer is a calamity wrapped up in a catastrophe, shrouded in a cataclysm, embedded in tribulation.
It's bad juju man.
At first I was like, no, that ship at the end isn't a Super, it's just a redesigned Imperial-class Star Destroyer...

Then I kept waching:

Oh, crap! That IS an Eclipse-class!
Edited by caelenvasiusJesus, no wonder Vader avoided Tatooine all these years. Apparently, imperial ships cannot help but crash on desert planets!
Oh, crap! That IS an Eclipse-class!
Ahem... *Executor-class. ![]()
I dunno, I would honestly have expected the engine nozzles on an SSD to look bigger. Exactly how can we be sure we're looking at the sorry remains of yet another crashed Exexutor-class?

...You...You DO realize that is the same thing, right?

Yes, sorry for the confusion; I guess I should've gone with the same name in both sentences.
No one mentioning it didn't just crash, it went down upside down. Or possibly rolled a few times.
I was about to make that comment, too! Wonder how many settlements it took out on impact...

Yeah, an Eclipse would've probably destroyed the darn planet when it crashed...

And yet I would morn for the Eclipse Class more than a simple planet, the Galaxy has tens of thousands of those.
The Eclipse Class has been long ago recton'd not to be longer than the Executor Class (SSD) each being 9 3/4 miles to 11 miles (15.75 Kilometers to 17.95 kilometers), but you are of course correct, the Eclipse Class is much more massive vessel and carries much heavier armament even when compared to the Executor Class.
Edited by Imperial Advisor Arem HeshvaunSome point out that this crashed ship is missing the middle two engine banks (The arrangement is 3-2-3 on the Executors), but I think the bells on the right are part of the middle two and the ones left of us are missing.
I'm interested in what her name was. Executor is long gone. The presence of this ship also proves that more than one Executor existed in the Star Wars new Canon.

I always thought that Han's statement in Return of the Jedi about there being lots of Command ships pretty solidly established that the Executor wasn't one of a kind. And since it was stated onscreen, it would be canonical.

You can be shook up over and over again
