Re: This Site has become Lame...
Eh he can't do worse then Lucas did. Let's be honest, Episodes 1-3 set the bar pretty low.
That much is true.
He did good with Star Trek. Again, his were not be far the worst ones. More towards the better end in my opinion.
I would rather watch 1,3,5,7 & 10 back to back than be forced to watch any of them again.
The first one was essentially him thumbing his nose at the franchise and not so subtlety acknowledging that (by his own admission) he was not a Star Trek fan and that Star Wars was actually the franchise he wanted in on.
Let's be honest, the entire story was right out of Star Wars. From young Annikan Kirk pod racing his Corvette through the corn fields to the evil Romulan Emperor running the entire thing from the comfort of his swivel chair.
And, the second one? Seriously? After spending six months swearing that he wasn't going to remake Kahn, that's exactly what he did. And, it was beyond awful.
I honestly can't think of any of the originals that was worse than his second film. Including 5. Which is really saying something.
