Maybe he doesn't have the spectacular track record some directors do, but comparing him to Michael Bay is asinine. The only thing they have in common is that they both worked on Armageddon (a 31/32 year old Abrams wrote it).
Except Abrams Trek has about as much depth as Transformers compared to Roddenberry Trek at it's height.

We're not arguing Abrams commercial success. Bay has that too. Hell I didn't even mind the first Transformers movie. But Nicolas Meyer directed the best Star Trek movie. Not JJ Abrams.
