There were times in Star Trek Into Darkness that the lens flares just seemed to be all over the screen. In a way, I kind of hope that the new Star Wars films that Abrams directs have Lightsaber lens flares. But I digress… in a new video from Crave Online, they interviewed Abrams and he gives an update on a potential new Star Trek TV series for CBS, as well as makes an apology for his use of lens flares. He’s got a great, laid back, sense of humor about it, and is so self-aware about it, it’s refreshing to have a film-maker that is able to laugh at himself.
