JJ Abrams is entirely unsuited to third acts, at least in a writing capacity.
So sadly this. š¦
Whatās the track record here? Do most of his projects fall apart at the end?
Iām really not very familiar with JJās works. Iāve seen the Trek reboot and TFA. Thought both were āmehā but not bad.
And he had something to do with Cloverfield, which I liked quite a bit.
He was the Producer of Cloverfield.
In terms of writing, he was involved with Super 8, Lost, TFA, Armageddon, and Mission: Impossible 3, among a few others that I havenāt seen. I also havenāt seen Lost but itās infamous for flubbing the ending, so Iāll count it. Of these projects, Super 8, Lost, and TFA have fumbled their endings. Armageddon and MI3 were serviceable in this regard, but one of these was a verifiable mess throughout. So really my hope for Episode 9 rests entirely on the strength of Mission Impossible 3, and that gives me copious amounts of pause.
