I don’t think “Coming of Age” is very clear on this topic. It’s probably best to assume that only one candidate from that small group will be selected, and that there are many similar groups throughout the Federation. A pretty silly way to run things, but… 🤷

And the movie still made nearly $2.8 billion.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s important to foster healthy online spaces that are free of that sort of nonsense - I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t - but that crowd is a drop in the bucket when it comes to the actual audience.

They’re just loud, obnoxious, and spurred on by grifters.

If there’s one thing people need to realize about the “anti-woke” crowd, it’s that outside of poisoning online spaces, they don’t matter.

They are very loud, but at the end of the day, there’s not actually that many of them. The box office numbers speak for themselves.

And it’s an anecdote, but the single biggest F&F fan I know is a woman.

Can there be stories that anyone—regardless of gender, ethnicity, or country—can enjoy?

Sure - there are plenty of global mega-hits, from the MCU to Star Wars to The Fast and the Furious.

But I don’t think you can (or should, really) separate a work from the cultural context that led to its creation.

It’s Canadian acting icon Callum Keith Rennie (possibly best known as BSG’s Leoben) playing a Kellerun.

He does have some Daniel Craig energy, though.

Sadly, the chances of a last-minute renewal are nil at this point - the sets have been dismantled.

It’s technically been cancelled, but there’s a ten-episode fourth season and a five-episode fifth season on the way first.
