    It really feels like they watched Star Trek Renegades and were like “YES”.

    I echo what you said elsewhere, if I get a goofy action movie (or better) then I won’t be disappointed and it will be nice to see the Discovery-era one last time.

      the Discovery-era

      Well, this seems poised to be set sometime after “The Undiscovered Country,” which is actually one of the more interesting aspects for me.

    i loved Michelle Yeoh on Discovery, loathed her character. The closer this gets to release the more I dread the results.

    I’m going to hate watch this even more than I do Strange new worlds. I do appreciate fresh takes on the Trek universe, dark or no, but this seems like generic action sci-fi that happens to tie into ST canon. I’ll be happy to be proven wrong when it airs.

      My plan is to go in expecting a goofy action movie, and hopefully I’ll find at least parts of it more compelling than that.

      I’ve always felt that the Georgiou character is potentially interesting, and I liked her Discovery send-off. Of the “new” characters, Alok sounds interesting, and I’m looking forward to seeing what they do with Garrett.

      I’m giving myself 50/50 odds of enjoying it.
