I like the story of Force Awakens but hate how fast paced it is. It feels like a 90 minute action flick with no room for character development or proper backstory with what happened during the last 30 years.

Sure Episode 8 will explain more but the fans shouldnt have to wait 2 years for that when JJ made such an unfinished movie.

I mean: all other 6 Star Wars movies end on a closure. Lucas was great at knowing how to properly end an episode. But with JJ's Force Awakens, it ends on a cliffhanger which leaves so much unanswered.
>>
>>72057748
He made a movie where MEW walks around in her underwear for 90 minutes
>>
He co-created LOST. He shot the pilot.

Don't try and tell me that your life would have been better without LOST.
>>
Mission Imposible 3 was pretty good. But that was just mostly because of Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Never watched it past the first season.

Absolute garbage.

Super 8
>>
>>72058099
God the pacing is aweful. It doesn't feel like one coherent story. Seriously the original Star Wars had such a great build up and resolution.
>>
>>72057748
Super 8 was a nice throwback to ET, and early 80s in general. Quite enjoyable movie.
>>
I liked all the lens flare and shakey cam in Star Trek.

It was like I was in a disco off my face on MDMA

Lost was good. So was fringe. Wasn't he part of both of those?
>>
>>72059524
Yes, I think he only produced fringe tough, he wasn't a writer like in lost.

I agree completely, Arvin and Jack were great.

But LOST was still shit.

He's destroyed both Star Trek and Star Wars.

first, I don't subscribe to big man theory when it comes to films, especially modern films and franchises that actually require CITIES of human beings to make. Whole unit production teams who are in charge of filming in five international cities at once, teams of special effects computer nerds who pretty much direct all the CGI scenes themselves, the practical effects teams doing crazy shit like in Nolan Films kinda deserve most the credit for all the impressive shots, the DP crew, the second unit director(s) and of course, the moneybag fucks who have final say on what is or isn't going to happen in the first place.

That said, Abrams is a mediocre director a little above Michael Bay (not that I hate on Bay like the memefucks who populate this board - in my opinion actual awful directors are people like Breen, too much money is shoved down the production hole for mainstream directors to be 'bad' besides maybe Ewe Bol or those endless trash films that get 5 or 6 out of ten and forgotten in a week with no-name directors) I'd say Shyamalan is a better director but Abrams is about on par with Nolan.

Days of great films ended with Wolf of Wall Street.

People think he's great but that's just because his movies appeal to the lowest common denominator. I wouldn't call any of his flicks smart or art.

The money they pump in means they get to make decisions plot and character wise.

First 2 seasons of LOST and that's literally it. But even that is made retroactively bad by the final seasons and the magic pools of lighty goodness fluff that was the supposed payoff.

He gave us Alias, which eventually led to evil Amy Acker in a wetsuit, which was pretty neat.

Beyond that, nothing.

I think the one general complaint most everyone can agree upon is that it doesnt have any time to breathe. The closest it gets is the one scene on the Falcon and maaaaybe the Cantina scene but that blows up really quick as well. The Falcon scene where Solo is explaining shit was the only time it felt like Star Wars to me. I enjoyed the film btw.

Did ESB really end with closure though? I mean, TFA ended on a cliffhanger, I'm not debating that, and while what ESB ended on certainly wasn't a cliffhanger (imo) it definitely wasn't closure.
