Yeah, that's kind of how I see it as well.
Of course I’ll still watch this. I’ve watched about over 800 hours of Star Trek. Plenty of them were absolute shit, but that didn’t stop me.
I’m just bummed this may not be enjoyably bad like “Spock’s Brain” or “Sub Rosa”, so bad that you can’t help but laugh.

I don't get why fans value their time so little.
This is truly blowing my mind.

Meh I'm excited for new trek tomorrow.
Bit spoilery, but I must say, what's with the golem stuff in Trek these days?
I have removed my eyes now, to avoid temptation
Yeaeeeaah, but...(some excuse I can't think of right now)These days?
What’s described of this new character doesn’t sound like the androids/golem/synth we’ve seen before in the past. It’s not like there was a hamster inside Data’s head… or was there?

It looks more like a gray embryo (pic in the grading thread) but seems to be a similar concept
Meh, good or bad, I'll still be watching. I'm a MST3K fan, so it being a bad movie has no effect on my enjoyment levels. It might actually make it more fun to watch. Would I have preferred it to be an amazing film? Sure. But I try to be a glass half full kinda guy.
When I said I'd been talked out of watching The Acolyte because of bad reviews people rolled their eyes and said I listened to other people's opinions too much instead of making up my own. So there's really no right answer to this. Either I watch it and I'm an idiot for throwing my time away or I don't watch it and I'm a sheep.
Right now I'm leaning toward watching it, just so I can stay in the discussion, but only if my brother watches it with me. If I'm going through this, I'm not going through it alone.
I wasn't going to watch but Ireland is going into an extreme weather lockdown tomorrow so I will have a lot of time to kill.
Oh, I'm totally not watching it five times on release day and twice a day every day for the next week just to make sure my hatred and loathing can be completely pure and authentic. Why, what made you think I would?
What is? That Star Trek fans a going to check out a new Star Trek production, even if they suspect they won’t like it? What’s so strange about that? If this were just any random production not connected to Trek, sure, I can see why one would consider that a waste of time to watch for someone who expects they won’t like it. But surely you can wrap your head around the idea that a Trek fan would watch new Trek purely to check it out, be able to talk about it online or offline with friends, or even just because it can be fun to watch something bad and find in enjoyment in how bad it is.
I can certainly get that you yourself wouldn’t do that, but having “your mind truly blown” by the idea that other might seems a tad hyperbolic.
I'm freezing my butt off down here.
Might as well watch it to pass the time.
This is what passes for freezing in West Central Florida:
I expect I'll like it. Even if not, it's a distraction from King Orange. I've focused on S31, while everyone else I know in Real Life has focused on the other thing. I've valued the distraction. I'd say it's probably the real reason I'm taking such a deep dive into this.
And you know what? Even if S31 turns out to be shit, in the process I've discovered a lot of good-to-great Michelle Yeoh films that I probably wouldn't have watched if this didn't prompt me to.
