The Collector's Edition of the eighth Trek film contains a few hidden surprises...
Insert the second disc of the set and wait for the main menu to appear. Select the entry 'The Star Trek Universe' and press enter on your remote. On the following screen highlight the entry for 'Jerry Goldsmith: A Tribute' and press right on your remote. One of the green spheres on the Borg control panel will turn red. Press enter to see a clip of Ethan Phillips discussing his uncredited cameo as the Maitre'd.

Next, go back to the main menu and select 'The Borg Collective'. On the following menu screen highlight the 'Main Menu' entery and press left on your remote to highlight another sphere.

Finally, head back to the main menu. Highlight the entry for 'Production' and then press right on your remote to highlight another sphere. Press enter to view some of the alternate titles that were considered for the film (all of which suck).
