Instead of focusing on telling a good story, J.J. Abrams put so much fan service in Star Trek Into Darkness that it was so difficult to focus or get into the sci-fi film. The end result just upset fans because it wasn't as good as the first reboot and its moderate box office take reflects poo


Jurassic Park was a hard adventure to beat, but director Steven Spielberg tackled the challenge anyway, removing dinosaurs from the island, and dropping them in San Diego. The added spectacle wasn’t a hit with every fan, but the director had gotten the chance to finally film many of the sequences and plot beats that he couldn’t fit in the first movie. The Lost World ended with the dinosaurs traveling back to Isla Sorna, and letting Spielberg finally take on the role of a fan – literally. Look closely at the TV reflection in the final scene, and the director can be seen with a bowl of popcorn in his lap, and a smile on his f


Again, keep in mind that none of this means an Obi-Wan spinoff is, for sure, going to become a real thing. Nonetheless, until further notice, it's definitely an idea that shouldn't be dismissed as being too implausible - and it's an idea that's worthy of further discussion,


"There's a directorial flourish and then there's self-parody — and Abrams promises he's easing up on his signature stylistic tic of shining lights directly into anamorphic lenses to create flares. He could explain it away in the Star Trek films ("the future is so bright!") but admits he has no excuse for Super 8. He recalled how one shot in Star Trek Into Darkness was so overrun by lens flare his wife shouted that she couldn't see Alice Eve. He made an effort to tone it down for The Force Awakens, and when he spotted his lighting crew bringing large spotlights onto the set he would joke "these aren't the flares you're looking f


While some directors might shy away from fan criticism, J.J. Abrams seems to embrace and accept it. He is fully aware of the fan reaction to Star Trek Into Darkness and his movies overall. He even tries to make up for his misgivings with his next film, but he's not above admitting that he miscalculated what he thinks fans w


What comes after that (besides Episode IX , that is)? Well, the same rumors continue to persist about what the next two Anthology movies could be. Namely, that the second Anthology installment (after Rogue One ) is going to center around the infamous bounty hunter Boba Fett - while the third Star Wars spinoff project will focus on Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi (originally brought to life as an older man by Alec Guinness in 19


It's worth noting that this isn't the first time rumors about an Obi-Wan spinoff have popped up online. Rumors that the character would appear as a Force Ghost in Force Awakens (then known as Episode VII ) began to circulate back in Summer 2013, along with a report that asserted McGregor was pushing for Obi-Wan to get his own standalone feature. Then, in 2014, a separate (but related) story emerged, claiming that Lucasfilm has been actively developing an Obi-Wan movie for McGregor to headl


Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in U.S. theaters on December 18th, 2015. Star Wars: Rogue One arrives a year later on December 16th, 2016, followed by Star Wars: Episode VIII (official subtitle TBA) on May 26th, 2017. The second Star Wars Anthology film (Boba Fett movie?) doesn't have an official release date


Over the weekend, J.J. Abrams and Stephen Colbert were featured in a two-hour "celebrity nerd-off" during the Montclair Film Festival at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, New Jersey. While Colbert asked Abrams about the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens , the late night talk show host also touched upon Star Trek Into Darkness . According to Jordan Hoffman from Rolling Stone , Abrams admitted that Star Trek Into Darkness had a number of problems, namely that there were too many homages and references to The Wrath of Khan . Hoffman wri


Even though American Horror Story season 2 is still (many) months away from premiering, series creator Ryan Murphy has revealed exactly where the second season of FX's horror anthology will be taking pl


It's good and quite funny to see J.J. Abrams admit he has a problem when it comes to lens flares. It's also refreshing to see that he has a sense of humor about it too. But fans will react negatively to The Force Awakens if there are a lot of lens flares throughout its running time. In fact, if you watch any of The Force Awakens marketing materials, such as trailers or TV spots , Best Price Steam Key|Https://Gamedealhq.Com/ you can plainly see there will be at least some lens flares featured in the new Star Wars . Hopefully, they're not too distracting to enjoy The Force Awakens , but you know someone out there is going to count each and every one while watching the mo
