‘Section 31’ Movie Director Says It’s A “Different” Star Trek + New Character Details Revealed
Olatunde Osunsanmi talked about the streaming movie at Wondercon.
and likened the tone to the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
Oh good, a light-hearted romp where half the characters act like idiots, that's exactly what a Star Trek movie about a clandestine blackops organization should be like
Deep Space Nine made it absolutely clear that Section 31 is an illegal black-ops org with garb somewhat reminiscient of Nazi storm troopers, they were the bad guys.
Yeoh has described it as “Mission: Impossible in space,” and likened the tone to the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
Mission: Impossible, the longest-running, pro-CIA anti-socialist propaganda series in US history. OK... so now Star Trek is about making illegal black-ops Nazis look cool?
Fuck these fucking producers. I want my gay space communism back.
Translation: it's another formulaic action film with a Star Trek coat of paint.
We don't want a different trek
We want old trek in a new wrapper
I am upvoting this thread for being relevant to the discussion, but man, this article makes me sick. They are completely ruining Star Trek.
I really hope this is good, I am actually really excited to see how this turns out, I don’t necessarily have high expectations but also I don’t think there is any reason it has to suck so long as Georghiu isn’t let of the moral hook for being an awful, murderous leader.
Also Michelle Yeoh is great so I am excited fuck it.
it could be 2 hours of michelle yeoh eating kelpians and i would still be entertained
That took a quick, dark turn.
10/10 would watch
it's a different Star Trek
Well fuck you then! Make something without the Trek name, you wanker.
I will always root for Trek to succeed. I'm hoping that by including Rachel Garrett, this isn't too timey-wimey and we get a well written TUC-TNG lost era story.
Do the people who make Star Trek these days just... Hate star trek?
There is some really good Star Trek these days. Just not all of it. And this probably won‘t be…
No.
Had me fooled.
Yes. There’s a producer, writer, edge-lord guy who got this kind of shit rolling back in the 00s. I don’t remember his name but despite hating ST, he worked on a fair number of shows. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s still around working on these recent “dark and gritty” Trek shows.
That's what we were all clamoring for: a different Star Trek. Heavens know that has never been tried before!
Yeah, I hate it when Trek tries anything new. Like, imagine if they set a show on a space station and not a starship, had the characters embroiled with the local politics of the same culture over the entire series, and tried to tell a more serialized story? #NotMyTrek
Exactly brother. We don't want no stinky Babylon 5 knockoff in our Star Trek!
„Different“ as in „shitty“?
"We had our own idea for a show but we're afraid it wouldn't stand up on its own, so we stole a beloved IP and plan to slap its cost of paint over the story we came up with so it could be more marketable. I'm sure those Star Treks fans won't mind."
You wouldn't know this Trek, she doesn't go to our school.
Discovery is awful. Fuck this. I want my hopeful Star Trek back. It’s ridiculous that the two best recent shows are animated, a kids show and an adult comedy.
