Sounds like they may be starting totally over with the script, they only mention Chris Terrio co-writing it with Abrams. {nm} notfabio Sep 12, 07:55

so lazy {nm} slipping jimmy Sep 12, 08:13

I'm a fan of JJ Abrams since 'Alias'. This is excellent news for the franchise: at the least, STAR9 will be solid. {nm} lesana Sep 12, 08:20

"solid" as in pleasantly enjoyable? sure. but "solid" as in having any sense of reason and logic, then not so much {nm} islander Sep 12, 08:44

"We need more lens flare off the light sabers! And make that droid look like something Apple would sell!" {nm} Director Abrams Sep 12, 10:05

So he's making Return of the Jedi 2.... I'll pass... {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Sep 12, 11:17

He is a good director, but STAR7 was a lame movie. Terrible script. {nm} FabioParme Sep 12, 11:26

jj abrams is a generic director... was hoping for something a bit edgier. snoozefest almost guaranteed {nm} ghonner Sep 12, 15:12
