The_Ivory_Man 12/19/19 12:16:14 PM #22:	Johnson is the best director of the three. Everything Abrams has made is mediocre and just seems to be riding off another work. Snyder doesn't seem to understand adaptations. Rian made an awful Star Wars movie and Looper really makes no sense, but he's directed quality things. --- "Just because someone is killed doesn't mean they died" - Shojikan <cite>The_Ivory_Man posted [p:931800344] in Who is a b...

From JJ I've seen star trek 1 and 2, force awakens, and cloverfield. I liked star trek 1 and tfa, so I guess JJ I'd check out Looper. Even if the logic doesn't hold it's a fun movie. Also, if you like mysteries, Knives Out is just plain amazing. <cite>OctilIery posted [p:931800798] in Who is a b...
