Um....Not trying to be negative or put the partnership down, but sort of logically, isn't this a guy who one one hand (co)wrote the best of the original trilogy, but didn't see the coming evil of the worst of the trilogy? Which a naughty person might suggest he was basically lucky?
Cheekiness aside, it has to be a good thing that Abrams is smart enough to included a creative flavor from the originals. Kind of ego-less as well.
Have to say, I personally really like what he did to Star Trek, I like what he does in movies, so Im very interested to see what he does with Star Wars.
So how does that mean that he "didn't see the coming evil of the worst of the trilogy?" Or do you mean he was responsible for the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi?
Given that Lucas went on to do the two Ewok follow ups, which don't seem to be artistic classics, and then the prequels...whereas Kasdan on his own did the classic Body Heat...I think Kasdan can reasonably claim that the bad parts of Star Wars are not on him
> I personally really like what he did to Star Trek
You mean the new ST movies where people rush and run the whole time from one place to another ? Where there's no time for thinking, silence and reflexion ?
