J.J. Abrams Apologizes for Lens Flares in Star Trek Into Darkness (CraveOnline Video)

September 20, 2013 Paul Martin Star Trek Into Darkness Comments Off on J.J. Abrams Apologizes for Lens Flares in Star Trek Into Darkness (CraveOnline Video)

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.
