JJ Abrams fail

So, complaints about Eve's gratuitous underwear scene in Star Drek Into Darkness have promoted director Abrams to appear on Conan to admit, yeah, scene wasn't really necessary, and hey, here is a nude scene of Benedict Cumberbatch that was supposed to be in the film but we cut it because it was gratuitous ... meh.

Hm, thank you. I forgot about GR wanting Uhura to have more power befitting her rank, and about what miniskirts meant in the 1960's.

Of course, the ratio of female skin bared to male skin bared has always been unbalanced. But I hoped Abrams understood it would be a good idea to titillate the female fans (and gay male fans) too. Either strip down both genders, or keep everyone clothed.

I do love that the fans called him on it. Maybe he'll take that into consideration next time.
