I am currently watching the Original Show for the first time and I don't understand the picture.
It's a joke. Basically, the new Star Trek by JJ Abrams had quite a few scenes where there was excessive lens flare like you see in the picture on the right. http://io9.com/5230278/jj-abrams-admits-star-trek…
I have watched all the ST shows and I don't get the referance either.
JJ Trek
hmm… I thought it was a joke about instagram … guess I'm just really over thinking it.
You haven't watched enough Star Trek if you don't understand how funny this is.
haha so true!
Wow… How can people not get this joke?
Speaking for myself, I saw the movie once in the theater, didn't like it much, and haven't thought about it since. After it was explained, I got it, and felt a little silly. But I don't really think of the new movie as "Star Trek". Meh.
I've made a drinking game out of the new Star Trek. However its not for every lens flare take a drink. Someone would end up with alcohol poisoning in 10 minutes if we did that. No its for every 10 lens flares take a drink.
Almost as fun as drinking to visible cardboard in the original.
There is absolutely not enough lens flare in the pic on the right…
For those of us that wear glasses you can achieve the JJ Abrams lighting effect in other movies simply by smudging up your glasses and then improperly cleaning them by wiping the glasses with a shirt in a horizontal fashion.

Is it wrong I see the right as an improvement?
Yes, I think it is.
