It was never a good idea, Michelle Yeoh or not. Hollywood sometimes needs to sit down and know when a bad idea is bad and not spend millions to turn it into a show or a film.

If they commited to the "ALIAS" TV show formula but set in in a UFP time frame, that would've worked.
That was a successful TV show by JJ Abrams and it worked.
The only difference is that SD-6 was the bad guy organization pretending to be good and Section 31 would be portrayed as the Anti-Hero Organization with it's operatives out in the field doing similar things.
But they made a cheap Mission Impossible wanna-be movie that wasn't well executed.
And the results show.

That coffin was then launched into a sun and the sun was sucked into a black hole.
It worked... twenty years ago. I mean, you might as well have mentioned Mission: Impossible from the 60's.
It was a good show, did you ever watch it?
It doesn't matter whether I did or not, it was made twenty years ago.
Jennifer Garner's claim to fame. I never cared for watching it, but it did have a respectable run of many seasons.
It seems pretty clear to me that
1. Starfleet is a military (among other things), and
2. Starfleet really, really, really doesn’t want to be called a military, and so its PR doesn’t present it as one. That’s why every time there’s a war, there’s some character reacting with disbelieving shock that good lord, we’re supposed to be explorers! It’s hard to imagine people like Brad Boimler wanting to be in Starfleet if they thought of it as a military.
You could say this is “Peace is our profession!” taken to extremes.
Many of the various Trek shows were made even further back in time.
Why do you care how old it is?
Just how America always runs from the idea we're an imperial power or at one point had a small colonial empire becase, well, AMERICA DOESN'T DO THAT STUFF BECAUSE FREEDOM OR SOMETHING AND THE REVOLUTION, but we clearly have been and starting with 1867 and continuing until today we've had an outlying community of territories we run and which lack many of the same legal rights that states have.
But no, we don't "have any kind of empire" in the same way Starfleet "isn't a military."

Because I don’t need my Paramount+ bill to go up because they continue to waste money on dog shit shows and movies.
Then they shouldn't have wasted their time making Halo TV series if they weren't going to follow the games / novels
They literally thought they were going to make a Video Game Adaptation better by ignoring core parts of the game/novels and bring them "Hollywood Flashiness" and failed miserably.
