Boy captain to save the day?
Has JJ Abrams ever made a movie featuring a real man as the hero? While his films have featured male protagonists, none of them really seem to be "dangerous" or "manly." Kyle Chandler was a minor character in Super 8; I haven't seen that movie so I don't know how effective (i.e. competent, taking charge and assertive) his character is. (I suspect the character is manly, but he is just overpowered by the strength of the Fed. government.) Abrams's Spock may be better than Kirk, but that's because he doesn't have to emote like an adultlescent.
