Given how dirty and used everything looks in the new movies, I don't think anybody would possibly allow him to use his lens-flare app. I'm sure he'll sneak some in during the space sequences but I doubt we're going to get scenes on Tatooine with that crap everywhere.

I actually don't mind the lens flare.
Here's the official title...

lens flares all over the place were one of the many problems i had with JJ Trek 1.
The steaming pile of crap that JJ Trek was is the reason I'm not hotly anticipating Episode 7. I'm more excited about Fast & Furious 7, M:I 5, Age of Ultron and Ant-Man. |

Yeah, not a big fan of his work. HOPING Disney (and JJ himself) listen to the fans. Not sure ANYONE loves his 15 different flares per scene.
This.... is fucking hilarious!!!!! |

Star Wars: The Force Awakens. sWTFa...
Okay, it's a title. The quality of the film will determine how good or fitting the title is. I mean "The Phantom Menace" sounded pretty damn good at the time. Honestly, I think the whole lens flare thing with JJ is just a complete overreaction by fans on the internet. It's the same with the bashing that automatically comes with anything Michael Bay's name is attached to. I know the lens flares are there, but I just don't pay any attention to them. I'm sure they pop up in other director's films too. John Woo has his doves, Speilberg has his bad fathers, JJ has his flares. So what? I almost hope that this movie starts with the biggest, longest lens flare in film history, just to piss the haters off. |

See, I shut off Star Trek because of the flares. My wife liked it, I hated it. Same with Super 8. I really liked the story and it took 3 times before I made it through. They're just way overkill and ruin the movies for me. And as a photographer, one thing we were taught in photography class was to avoid lens flares at all costs. Now we can take some artistic liberty, but putting 5, 6 or 7 in a shoot is just fucking stupid. And a real flare is one thing, adding in a bunch as a special effect is just retarded. If it does start with a flare like you say, Ill leave the theater, swear to Christ.

What's more cliché that mentioning JJ Abrams and lens flare?
Nothing.

one of my other many problems with JJ Trek, related to the flares, was the fricking stupid design of the bridge with the lights shining out of the consoles right in the operators' faces. which were one source of said flares.
apparently, JJ said they were to 'show the future's bright'. No kidding, so bright you can't see sod all. he was actually a good director on Alias. back when he didn't do so many lens flares. MI3 has a few, but not too many. |
