This interview with JJ Abrams by WIRED is over a month old, and I apologize. I’m weeding through my inbox to try and make sure I post the interviews and articles that shouldn’t be missed. Bear with me 
In this interview, JJ talks a tiny bit about Trek, his kids, his influences (Rod Sterling and Aristotle, if you’re curious), LOST, and The Dark Tower.
It looks like that mutual appreciation society formed by JJ Abrams and Stephen King may produce an offspring. Rumor has it, or at least SciFiWire claims that JJ and King are talking about possibly developing the latter’s Dark Tower series into a television mini-series or big screen production.
Entertainment Weekly’s resident Lost expert is at it again, dropping tidbits and doing the BEST kind of theorizing (which would be the kind that actually makes SENSE) in his latest commentary. Watch him draw a magic thread connecting Stephen King, a bunny, a Swan, a Pearl, the Island, Alvar Hanso, the Dharma Initiative, AND…Reality TV.
No, REALLY. Thank goodness there is at least one frellin’ critic out there who can review, analyze and critique — all while managing to keep his humor and wits about him.
