    And that’s JJ Abrams all over.

    20 years ago I remember thinking he was the most talented writer out there. 100% bought into his whole “Mystery Box” spiel. Then, every single time, he failed to deliver on any of the compelling threads he started with, ending up in a meandering, meaningless mess if the property went on for more than 2 seasons/movies. Dude is a hack that convinced people that a lack of a plan was somehow clever.
