Anyone that doesnt like a Nolan movie, especially the Dark Knight trilogy is someone that I don't trust

I did not like the third batman movie. it was not bad, I just did not like or enjoy it.
and while I did like interstellar, I can also admit it was full of a lot of pretentious crap.
all perfectly reasonable

I think he's speaking to the story of the OT and ST rhyming with each other.

This was my one big worry - whether or not TFA would feel like too much of an echo of Episode IV. Based the trailers/TV spots, I had already suspected as much.

Ya I understand that some of those movies are flawed, but I liked them a ton so that's why I said I couldn't trust him, but everyone has a right to their own movie opinion

Well JJ has a tendency to echo that which has come before....

Granted Lucasfilm would have developed and approved the script....

It was something I worried about when we saw Rey watching the ship take off.

Seems like JJ gets more big picture chances because he's spielberg's boy.

Hit harder than you expect I took to mean emotionally through loss. Seeing as how we were talking about the OT and ST rhyming, it makes sense.
