In comparison to many other series that have come in this era (because we all love to compare!), the stakes are as profound as any that we’ve seen, but with a particular character driven twist that I hope will surprise and delight people who watch the movie.

That’s not a selling point. I’m truly tired of the world ending all the time. What’s wrong with smaller more personal stakes.
A mild counterpoint, because I totally get where you’re coming from:
Section 31 is probably the one setting that should be high stakes, all the time. Like them or not, this is kind of what they do.
You are both right, which is part of why this whole concept is dull. How many times can they threaten to destroy all universes ever?
This makes me think that the flashbacks to Georgiou’s childhood seen in the trailers might be directly related to the main plot, rather than something that’s just there to provide character insight.
