Should Section 31 be judged by its movie trailer or given a fair shot by Star Trek fans?

by

As a seasoned gamer and Star Trek enthusiast who’s seen more than his fair share of movie trailers, I can’t help but feel a twinge of skepticism about the recent Section 31 trailer. The music felt a tad too alien for my Trek-loving ears, reminding me of the time I accidentally joined a Klingon dance party in an MMO (Much to my character’s embarrassment, I might add).

It’s reasonable to assume that a considerable number of Michelle Yeoh’s fans were left feeling underwhelmed by the trailer unveiled for her upcoming movie, Section 31. The music, distinctly unlike anything we’ve heard in Trek before, was one major point of contention. In fact, only one other Star Trek series, Star Trek: Enterprise, has strayed from the typical franchise orchestrations. As we all remember, the reception for that series wasn’t exactly favorable.

Following the release of the latest Star Trek trailer, some viewers expressed their doubts about its resemblance to traditional Star Trek, likening it instead to Guardians of the Galaxy and the Marvel Universe. However, they note that the brief clips shown in the trailer may not accurately reflect the entire movie’s content. For example, the 2014 Godzilla trailer featured significant Bryan Cranston footage, leading audiences to believe he was a main character, but his actual screen time in the film was minimal.

haven’t we often witnessed instances where trailers show scenes that don’t appear in the final film? These scenes are filmed and later removed from the movie due to time constraints or other factors. Screencrush has compiled a list of trailers featuring deleted scenes, such as The Amazing Spider-man. This trailer generated excitement over the prospect of discovering more about Peter Parker’s parents, but regrettably, no such information was included in the film itself.

Besides the music featured in the Section 31 trailer, if there were certain scenes that seemed unsettling, those may not actually appear in the film. Additionally, some scenes might lose their impact when viewed independently from the rest of the movie. Consequently, it’s entirely plausible that the final version of Section 31 could differ significantly from what we saw in the trailer. Therefore, it seems more appropriate to make a fair judgment about the movie based on our actual viewing experience, rather than just the trailer alone.
