    There was a recent Forbes article that talked about how he passed on the upfront fee for "numbers on the backend". Essentially not getting paid unless the movie was a success.

    Seems he did alright.

    He certainly deserves it. He made Hasbro and Dreamworks a lot of money.

    I have to agree with you there. If only JJ Abrams did Transformers instead of Star Trek, we might not be getting a Devastator with a "scrotum", per Agent Simmons.

    But at least Star Trek was magnificent. One good aci-fi film a year seems to be a rule set in stone.
