I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT!

The LENS FLARE in ST09?

Is Abrams' way of "modernizing" the copious amounts of glitter in TOS!! (TNG went with metallics, but that's so over.)

... what.

Sparkly and/or glittery things in TOS: dress uniforms, all the bed spreads, Klingon pants, Klingon shirts, Mirror!verse shirts, mirror!verse sashes, Vulcan mating sashes, Romulan sashes, Romulan furniture, most things aliens from advances societies wear, and some aliens. Hell, even McCoy's short-sleeved shirt is shiny.

None of this stuff is glittery or sequined or sparkly except through use of lens flare in the new movie.

More proof of the new movie sucking? *runs awaaaaay ~*
