Ok, somehow this pissed me off... Maybe because who really knows Abram’s work know that he’s not such a big deal. He couldn’t make Alias a decent show for more than 2 seasons, and even before that, seriously, Alias wasn’t really exceptional. Lost is genius, of course, but obviously Abrams doesn’t have much to do with this. He is good, but not that good. So, first of all, let’s not compare Joss and Abrams, because it’s exactly like comparing Shakespeare and Dan Brown. Second, please, let’s not compare Serenity with MI3, because Serenity is such a harder movie to make, because it was a TV show. MI3 is clearly an easier work. And also, MI3 may make millions, but that means nothing. The franchise was already successful, and it has Tom Cruise. C’mon, Serenity had poor Box Office, but it’s such a Champion in so many important ways that MI3 could never dream to be.

Please, let’s have a clear view of what differs real narrative Genius from merely talented and ’lucrative’ people.

That said, I really wish MI3 could make his millions, become a huge blockbuster, as it’s supposed to be.
