Here ’s J.J. Abrams on Simon Pegg ’s contribution to the movie beyond his minor cameo :
He was a sounding control panel . He would devolve by the set because he wanted to , and when he could , he would avail … We could lecture about thing , and he was a perfect combination of fabulously smart film writer , fan of the serial , vital buff of the series , and admirer of mine – but not just blindly supportive . He was an honest , critical friend . And he was n’t so faithful to it that he became resistant to things . He would fare in with fresh eye and very impudent ideas . He ’s one of a smattering of people along the direction that has been really priceless .

Shane shoot a motion picture and he ’s doing a pilot now , but I ’ve take a lot of his handwriting and I suppose it ’s mavin .

He ’s just an awing writer - director . He ’s gravel a way of face at this that makes you excited again .
Shane ’s get a writing partner , Fred Dekker . They ’ve been doing it together and Fred ’s great . The two of them together , they ’ve been in the business for a foresightful time , but the writing is so fresh , the linear perspective is so fresh . I ’m telling you you ’re going to get something you do n’t expect and you ’re go to say , ‘ This is the most entertaining manner to reinvent a dealership ’ .
