Disney/Lucasfilm truly put a fine point on this by forcing JJ to try to fight his way out of one his own “mystery boxes” and he responded by shitting his pants and flushing a billion dollars down the toilet with both hands

And somehow also the TV versions of both properties. He should be hunted with pitchforks and torches like Frankenstein.

what's sad is that he wasn't even the worst part of Lost, look at what the other writers did to Alien

Alien is like Terminator they keep going back to that well when the first two entries were basically perfect.

The Star Wars sequels were bad because of woke! No, dummy, they were bad because Rian Johnson wasn’t going to play by JJ Abrams’s rules. And then JJ Abrams was unable to play by JJ Abrams rules. Because he’s a hack.

the thing that really got me was the sneering contempt for everything in the 8th movie. Like I understand not loving everything your predecessor did but just roll with it, it's professional courtesy

It's so funny that he's been put in director jail with a million 'projects' that seemingly go nowhere

Poetic but very stupid to give JJ 9 when it was obvious that he completely fucked the trilogy setup in 7 Sure it made money but so did 8, why would you give it back to someone who's unable to collaborate or finish a project
