That's So 'Trek'

J.J. Abram's new Star Trek film may be fun for the whole family, but one of the truly great things about this movie is its ability to keep the diehard Trek fans tethered to the new canon by keeping them (and by them I mean, us) satiated with a steady barage of nudges and winks in the form of classic Trek in-jokes and references (trek-ferences?).  But if you happened to be part of the vastly larger group of "others" shrugging their shoulders and shooting confused glares at the titters from the nerdy guy wearing the plastic pointy ears, allow me to break out the interphasic scanner and reveal an entire hidden layer of Trek you didn't even know was there.  

Careful though, thar be spoilers ahead...
