I'm not all that excited about this. I didn't really like Armageddon, Cloverfield, or Star Trek, and I was told Super 8 was kind of disappointing...

Star Wars? Nah. I want the originally intended 9 part epic.
After that it can fade away. Until then, though...

For me, I enjoyed his Star Trek, which I always found very Star Wars. Super 8 has a kind of Spielberg-like wonder about it which would be perfect for Star Wars. It's not a perfect movie, yes, but it's one of the closest movies I've seen recently to capture the magic of the Spielberg/Lucas era. I think he's a rather safe choice for Star Wars, but I can't say he's perfect until the movie's out of course. I have good reason to be optimistic about it because Abrams has shown the ability to capture wonder and magic in Star Trek and Super 8, and Michael Ardnt would probably do something similar with the script since he wrote the excellent Toy Story 3. If anything, Star Wars needs to be magical again.

Honestly, as long as there's a Han Solo type character to counter balance the no longer interesting or special Jedi characters, it's a step in the right direction.
Overall, I see what's what when there's something to see. |

He wasn't the worst name on the list of contenders but he wasn't the best. I generally like his movies, but they all feel rather superficial to me. Also his taste in creature design is weak imo. The creatures in Cloverfield(which he produced although didn't direct), Super 8, and the two Star Treks all look vaguely similar, like giant shaved wingless earless bats.
But as long as he doesn't have his buddies Lindelof etc write it, I think it might turn out to be good. |
