  A mild counterpoint, because I totally get where you’re coming from:

  Section 31 is probably the one setting that should be high stakes, all the time. Like them or not, this is kind of what they do.

    You are both right, which is part of why this whole concept is dull. How many times can they threaten to destroy all universes ever?

      At least once more, as always.

  Srsly. What happened to, “oh, what an interesting planet, let’s explore it…”?

  I agree it’s overused for the average episode of Trek, but if we accept that they’re doing a Section 31 movie, what’s the point of a low-stakes feature film (even a streaming film), especially one centered around Section 31?

    It’s going to suck so hard.

  I don’t understand the urge for some people to bitch and moan about everything they haven’t even seen. “Smaller more personal stakes” doesn’t mean something will be good, either!

    I never mentioned good or bad.
    I don’t really care if something is “good or bad”. I only care if I like it or not.

      Ok sorry, where I’m from saying you are “truly tired” of something implies you do not like it.
