JJ Abrams should be able to do better than my Mom Sports_Gambler Send a noteboard - 30/12/2015 04:20:54 AM

Bring back George Lucas I say.

Look, the prequels may have been boring in parts and the acting was terrible, but at least Lucas knew how to tell an engaging, complex and original story.

There is essentially no coherent story in 'The Force Awakens'.
