Well yes, but not of that show. The point still stands, though. All the NuSpock drama came and went when they introduced Quinto. After that, nobody really gives a shit about TOS recasting.
Casting of Quinto was mitigated by the fact that A) Leonard Nimoy endorsed him and B) Leonard Nimoy still made appearances in those films as Spock and was the only good part in either of them (well, him and Alice Eve's hot body in Into Lens Flare).
After that, nobody gives a shit about TOS recasting because nobody gives a shit about people dressing up pretending to be the TOS cast.
You're missing the point, Rushy. Basically nobody watches Discovery. What fans? You mean the incredibly small number of people that watch and like the shit show compared to the fuckhueg number of general Star Trek fans?
I'm sure some people liked the Grindelwald shit but that doesn't mean just because you've seen a few posts of some tumblr gurl that is happy her gay fanfic shipping idea became reality that "Harry Potter fans loved that movie".
But it's a big pop culture franchise so of course it must be great and everything related to it must also be great, right? Just like how the pile of shit that is "Better call Saul" must be good because Breaking Bad was good or how anything Star Wars must be good because there were some good Star Wars films in the 70s.
This is why I dislike you. You're an absolutely devoid of original thought bugman.

You lost me with Better Call Saul. That show is dope. Michael McKean won three awards for that, and deservedly so. He's better in that than most supporting characters in Breaking Bad itself.
And what would you describe as original thought anyway? Right now, I'm a sheep who goes along with all the media's bullshit. Yesterday I was a contrarian who gave different opinions just for the sake of it.
Fuck these skewed standards of what is and isn't good to like.
Considering Terminator 2 a bad sequel isn't exactly a hot take.
Oh wow, he won awards? Man, got to reconsider my opinion then about that terrible cash grab. Black Panther showed me that awards are always a sign of quality!
In the end I don't give a fuck what you like. But your taste is as plebian as Movieblob's.

It probably also doesn't help that Discovery has done yet another recast. If these fake Trek shows/flicks don't care who plays Kirk or Spock, why should we?
