I love that you made meaningful connections out of the Trek images in the film! I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but I sure noticed that STAR TREK: THE EXPERIENCE stuff at the start.
Oh, and my take (maybe minority opinion) on the fabled home video (and foreign release, right?) "prologue" to ST IV? Completely superfluous, since all the plot points it hits are covered in ST IV itself - through Kirk's log entries there, the scene with Amanda, the footage shown in the trial. I don't understand why Paramount decided any prologue was necessary for any market. So there :)
