Abrams himself is really the biggest problem there though, I mean Lucas didn't really know what he was going to do after ANH but that didn't stop that film being a really good setup for what followed building characters and setting. JJ on the other hand was just throwing out his action/humour/nostalgia rollercoster putting in very little legwork, just looking to play off of elements of the originals rather than giving the sequels a strong foundation to build off of.
Disney and Lucasfilm should have heeded the warning from Trek that any success under him would only be short term.
I couldnt disagree more. Abrams left lots of room to work with. Johnson just said "Nah. Alien tit milk."
