What do you guys think about this?
In all honesty I think that he is the best choice. With Super 8 I think he really captured the old sci-fi movie feel like "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and "E.T." that he was trying to pay tribute to with the film.
With Star Trek, he may have gone away from what the original formula was for the series and I know sum fans think that he "dumbed it down" but he successfully brought the franchise back to life.
As long as he keeps the lens flares in check, which i think worked really well in other films, he will be very successful. Star Wars has always had a filming style almost all it's own with the panning scene changes that I can't remember seeing in other films.
Anyways, what are your guys' take on it? Are you excited to see what is to come or unsure?
