I guess the idea of not wanting to choose to direct a film, for which I've not read a script. It's a tough decision to make without seeing any pages. That's not to say that I don't have all the faith in the world in the spectacular writers.
J. J. Abrams
I was just like, I want to make a decent 2-D movie. I was so worried that, instead of being a decent 2-D movie, it would have been a bad 3-D one.
J. J. Abrams
One of my favorite things about 'Star Trek' wasn't just the overt banter but the humor in that show about the relationships between the main characters and their reactions to the situations they would face there was a lot of comedy in that show without ever breaking its reality.

J. J. Abrams
I find that it's hard to fully examine one's life and not have faith be part of the discussion.
J. J. Abrams
We're always pitching ideas and being told no thank you. No offense taken, because I would so much rather be told the truth that they're not interested and be able to find the right show for that network down the line.
J. J. Abrams
We used to have more references to things that we pulled out because they almost felt like they were trying too hard to allude to something.
J. J. Abrams
I do think there's something about the digital age that is increasingly dehumanising us. We're in this very weird place where we're being pulled into experiences that aren't really experiences at all.
J. J. Abrams
There's nothing wrong with doing sequels, they're just easier to sell.
J. J. Abrams
We live in an age of instant knowledge. And there's almost a sense of entitlement to that.

There are always a bunch of ideas floating around and I do the best that I can to try to not do them. The ideas don't go away and, over time, are finally like, Okay, it's been around so long, I have to get this thing out, and it somehow ends up coming to some version of fruition.
J. J. Abrams
