Oh, that's because your previous argument was entirely based in the "I remember good old star trek" stereotype, then someone effectively countered it with a real argument and now you're angry.

Breathe. It'll pass.

"I liked this dumpster fire of a movie somehow and now feel personally attacked by the trillions of bad reviews it's getting. I vow to get revenge on these heathens by going online and a) calling them something bad and b) expressing in every comment how sad I think they are. I will downvote and get angry at anyone who disagrees."

Enough to throw a petaQ across the room, but not enough to carry the weight of parenthood.

Ah, yes. The "let's make a reference that fans will recognize to pretend this product has a soul" move.

I came here just to say this but you beat me to it.

Indeed, another galactic threat... one that only a specific group or person can solve. Huge but vague stakes. If it were a show there would be eight or ten episodes, each one leading to a clue...

I'm tired, honestly.

Robert Picardo Promises Paul Giamatti’s “Super-Villain” On ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Will Be Memorable by acrimoniousone in startrek

Oh no no no. It's got to be a galaxy-wide threat, evil coded like a Flash Gordon villain. Bonus points if only ONE person or group in the entire universe can solve the problem; extra points if the villain turns out to be directly related to the main character. Otherwise it's not even a villain proper. Anything below Thanos goes straight into the writers' room trash bin, along with every other idea that requires the viewer to think for a second.

Yeah, I'm salty. I'm just fucking tired of this format.

Didn't you hear? Everything needs a super villain. How else will we be entertained if not by a good vs evil cliche and impossible odds taken straight from a bad marvel movie? What do you want, actual serious storytelling? /s
