Yes...the wonders of the "PrtSc" key. I didn't truly know what life was about until I discovered what that key did.

Good thing Quicktime is one of the few multimedia players that lets you do that. That's why Quicktime = win.

Unless of course they are on a Mac, in which case you can either use varying forms of keyboard Twister to get a fat PDF, or you can use the app Grab from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder to capture just a window or selection, and convert the TIFF file it creates with a graphics editor. If you lack a graphics editor, Preview can convert the image using Save As.

Enjoy.

I think that's some sort of protective grid, you know, since its most probably a military helicopter. I have the frames, but I don't have much time right now, so I'll post them later on tonight.

There was a still frame shot of that scene somewhere on here right after the trailer came out that i thought the same thing about, that i could see scales on the opposite side of the coptor from where the camera was. On closer review though i realized it was the webbing inside the coptor. It did look so much like scales tho, i was totally convinced this was going to be a scaley creature. I dont know if this is what youre talking about, and i cant find that pic right now. Ill keep looking, if i do find it ill repost it here

I've scrolled all the way through the scene and see nothing stationary or moving that resembles scales to me. I see only padding on the roof that's quilted, which could be misinterpreted as scales I suppose. I'd rather be working with a timestamp, as I'd rather not load this monster of a trailer into iMovie if I don't have to - and I haven't yet 'downgraded' my iMovie on this Mac mini to iMovie 6, seeing as the current one doesn't have a timeline view.

I opened the file in QuickTime, on my PowerBook. So I don't have a printscreen button. But, when you open any video, you can just click on the time-second-counter-thingy in the very bottom left and it gives you the option to view frames. You can then scroll left and right using the arrow keys or whatever.
I don't know why, though, but I can't access the option to export a frame. From what I've seen though, the frame numbers are relative to anyone who opens the 720 trailer in quicktime.

I sort of see the "webbing" idea, does anyone have a photo to reference with?
