Abrams II, Part 7:
Recap.
 
Running Time: 51 minutes 50
seconds
 
J.J. Abrams may not be returning as
the director of Star Trek Beyond, but that should not
suggest that his presence will not be felt as a producer. What do
his past producing efforts suggest about his contribution to the
upcoming movie?
 
In this episode
of Commentary: Trek Stars, Mike and John recap their
series looking at all of the films which Abrams has produced for
other filmmakers. We discuss his work on The
Pallbearer, The Suburbans, Joy
Ride, Morning Glory, Mission:
Impossible - Ghost Protocol, and Mission: Impossible
- Rogue Nation. We also hold a tournament to determine which
picture in his impressive filmography is the crappiest.
