Using a bad movie as an excuse to watch a lot of good movies... damn, that's what I should've done.
Spoilers Section 31 General Discussion Thread
- Thread starter F. King Daniel
- Start date
If you slap the name Star Trek onto something, it's an absolute guarantee that I'll watch it at least a couple of times and probably still buy the merchandise.
Discovery and Voyager are my least favourite series, but you can be sure that I've watched both series in their entirety, several times. I own both series on disc and have built models of both the Shenzhou and Voyager.

Man, I didn't need that spoiler. I'm still trying to go in with the possibility of enjoying this.
sorry i'll tag it, but the thread label does have a spoiler warning.
That is about as damning as it gets, especially from Trekcore, which is pretty down the middle, or even pretty positive about most Trek productions.Hmm, not encouraging.
STAR TREK: SECTION 31 Is a Dreary, Unfortunate Misfire — Our Spoiler-Free Review
Spoiler-Free Review: SECTION 31 brings back Michelle Yeoh — but forgets all the STAR TREK — in the dismal new Paramount+ filmblog.trekcore.com
Yikes.
Heads I win, tails you lose framing. One of the easiest cards for internet snarks to play.
I'll just go in knowing it's a bit of a mess, and if I find myself really hating it and not just being bemused, I won't finish it.
Reviews are probably far more important for people on the fence about signing up for a month of P+ just to watch it.
FWIW, GLADIATOR II just dropped on P+, so I'll have that queued up to watch while waiting for S31 to drop...
I enjoyed half of ACOLYTE. When it was good, it was actually VERY good, but when it was bad hoooo boy it was boring to watch at times.
You... are absolutely right. I just assumed that the spoilers would start after the movie was released, so I knew when to duck out until I'd watched it.
Positive review from The Verge.

Every review I read said that they don't lock down the year and while Garrett's appearance would point to the 2320s/2330s, apparently there's another character (not named, presumably a 23rd century character though) that muddles the timeline placement further
I don't get why fans value their time so little.
This is truly blowing my mind.
For years I avoided “Sub Rosa” because I’ve heard all the negativity and thought I should just ignore it altogether. Eventually when the remaster came along and I was rewatching the show, I decided to finally give it a watch.
I’m glad I watched it, because I ended up having some of the biggest laughs I ever had watching Star Trek. From that point on I’ll never miss out on any Trek, because I might be surprised by my own watching.
I wish you luck.
I didn't know the Tantalus device was coming back!
Did God resemble a glowy koala?
It's

It just occurred to me that the other character who could be showing up is Ash Tyler. A casual viewer or someone with a shaky memory of Discovery might be confused by Tyler's presence in the 24th century, but fans who remember he's basically Voq with an accordingly long lifespan (like Arne Darvin) wouldn't blink at him being in the same timeframe as Rachel Garrett.
Yeah I could see that being the case. We’ll see tomorrow.
You might enjoy (or hate) Fuzz's accent
