I remember the hype people had when the first teaser of *Star Wars: The Force Awakens* was dropped. I remember the memes depicting screenshots from old classic *Star Wars* movies, with super-imposed, fake lens-flares all over them. The meme was: it is [J.J. Abrams](), he is going to lend-flare the fuck out of *Star Wars*. I also remember the disappointment watching *The Force Awakens* for the first time, not really seeing many of those lens-flares people so anticipated. What happened? Well... *Star Trek Into Darkness* happened.", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y. Amihud.
