As I was seeing Star Trek for the fourth time tonight (holler at my new Seattle/Vancouver/Portland buddies!) I decided to do the impossible; I decided to count the lens flares.
So how many did I count?
1,013
~woo~
And that was without counting all of them in the credits. By that point, my brain had had enough.
I know that I missed some but this is to just give a rough estimate.
It's a hell of a lot bigger than I thought it would be.
