I saw this news about an hour ago, and I still can't wrap my head around it. He's doing Trek and Wars? Don't get me wrong, I think he's a great director, but there is still another Star Trek film to come after Into Darkness (which is the film I am most excited about this year!). He's going to be plenty busy, and hopping from one to the other is going to be a big challenge. However, if anyone can do this, J.J. can! Good news indeed I say!

Naww, I personally hoped Neill Blomkamp would get it :P
This is gonna be reaaally weird. I don't doubt that he's capable, but the Star Trek reboot always reminded me of star wars so much, let's hope he gets a handle on it haha

It's not even official yet guys... It's just a rumor.
I only say this because Star Wars.com still has yet to say anything on it.

DAMNIT!
I was hoping for Whedon, Abrams struggles with anything much deeper than explosions.

I'll take Abrams over Jackson. LotR sucked were awesome when they were just books, I was amazed the movies could be worse almost as good. Edit: I fixed it for you. -Jeg
