  It’s all positive city here, man, I don’t know what to tell you. [laughs]… Yeah, we’re always positive about the future. We never know what the future will bring. But there’s no reason not to be positive about it. Skydance has been terrific, and CBS has been terrific. Paramount plus has been terrific, and we’ll just see what happens.

    And his S31 movie was terrific too (based on his comments in other promotional campaigns).

    My partner and I are among the seemingly very few longtime Trek fans who really found S31 fun, and have even rewatched it.

    That said, however evidently capable Osunsamni is as the executive in charge of managing production in Toronto, S31 exemplifies a personal preference for flash over substance. One therefore has to wonder whether he’s got good situational awareness about where the context is now.

      I…enjoyed the S31 movie on its own terms. I wouldn’t call it particularly “good” or recommend it to anyone. Mostly, it just made me sad that we didn’t get the full 10-episode season, since it seems apparent that they didn’t really change the story - just compressed it to an extreme degree.

      The wonky camerawork that people like to single out definitely seems to be a trend that he set. In interviews, he talks a lot about letting the emotion of a scene guide the direction, but I can’t really say it shows.
