Of course. I'm a member of TrekBBS. It would be illogical for me not to watch it so I can complain about it later. 
Poll Do you intend to watch SECTION 31?
- Thread starter James Cole
- Start date
I planned to write a 1000 word response, but ran out of time. However, I found something that should unequivocally convey the jist of it.
That being said, I am not as excited for this as I was for, say, Picard or SNW. But I'll give any new Trek offering a shot and go from there.
Based on the trailers, I only hope they do not lean away too far from Trek and make it some kind of generic sci-fi action adventure with a few Star Trek stickers sprinkled about here and there that ultimately lead nowhere. That would be a let down for me, personally. I hope whatever story they tell is a fresh and interesting take that embraces the history of the franchise in a respectful way that that also doesn't hold itself hostage to it.
At the end of the day, if they can honor what came before in a well-written way that adds something to the franchise, I can get onboard.

I voted as undecided
I’ll watch this. I’ve been intrigued with Section 31 since Deep Space 9. Plus I loved Empress Georgiou. The character evolution made for interesting story telling IMO. I’ve been a Paramount+ subscriber for several years. Originally for Discovery and Picard and now Strange New Worlds. I also enjoy other streaming only shows on the service so it’s worth the spend for me. But finally seeing the Section 31 movie coming soon I hope it lives up to the hype I’ve built up in my head.
Welcome, Director.
We've been expecting you.
Whereas I live by "no expectations, no disappointments"
Last time I was HYPED for Star Trek was Into Darkness (which I loved, despite general fannish opinion)
I still love Into Darkness and fuck others opinions because everyone has opinions and you know what they don't speak for all people
‘Other’. I’ll watch it at some point.
Not even if somebody forces me with the Ludivico Technique.
(And no, as a matter of fact, I haven't seen A Clockwork Orange. The aforementioned scene is too much of an "eye-scream." But not having seen a film never stopped me from alluding to it before; I regularly allude to Fight Club without ever having seen it.)

I guess you can look forward to alluding to Section 31 in the near future then!
Nah, how can I watch it then trash talk how rubbish it is? It will be too difficult a concept to handle
I will probably watch it perhaps not on the day it's actually released but at some point. I do have P+ at this time.
It's Michelle Yeoh kicking mucho space butt, what's not to love?
