    Why does J.J. Abrams suddenly get all the cool franchises? He's an average director with no signature style. He isn't bad but he's not good either. Seriously. The Star Trek movie was pretty good and I want to see the second but why does he now get Star Wars AND Half Life AND Portal? WE might as well give him Halo and Mass Effect too since he is apparently now the king of nerd culture movies.
