* [=McCoy=] and Spock's off-color exchange after they crash on the planet. Spock is seriously injured, and [=McCoy=] distracts him with a ''non sequitur'' before cauterizing the wound on the theory that it'll hurt less.
-->'''Spock:''' If I may adopt a parlance with which you are familiar, I can confirm your theory to be "[[SophisticatedAsHell horseshit]]."

-->'''[=McCoy=]:''' Look, if I can't take this out, you're gonna die. Okay? If I take it out and can't stop the bleeding, you're gonna die.\\
'''Spock:''' I can see no appeal in either option.\\
'''[=McCoy=]:''' Believe it or not, neither can I. [...] I just don't get it, Spock. I mean, what did they attack us for? I mean, did they do all this for some doodad that the tiny critters didn't want?\\
'''Spock:''' It is unwise to trivialize that which one simply does not understand, Doctor. We can safely assume it is more important than a "doodad".

** The first thing Spock and Bones do upon beaming into said ship: immediately ''eject its two crewmen without a fight''. One has to wonder why Krall's ships were designed to make ejecting the crew so comically easy.

** You could only imagine what "modern" music is in the mid-23rd century of the Kelvin Timeline Franchise/TrekVerse when the Beastie Boys are considered "classical".

** Spock's statement beforehand how he gave it as "a token of his respect and admiration", [=McCoy=] afterwards saying he's glad Spock doesn't respect him and Spock's raised eyebrow is even funnier when remembering the two had just had a conversation about how Spock thought his respect for [=McCoy=] was clear.

*** It certainly puts Scotty's question of "is that music?" and comment how "music is a bit old-fashioned for [his] taste" more in context.

!!Meta/Cast Moments
* On ''Series/TheLateLateShow'', Creator/ZoeSaldana makes [[http://pine-farr.tumblr.com/post/147694075866/zoe-teases-chris-about-how-he-sits-and-how-he a crack]] to James Corden about each time Creator/ChrisPine was on set, [[BigEater he was always eating]]. She then does an impression of Chris with his legs spread and shoveling food into his mouth. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BHRu1CrTME The next night]], Chris appears with a sandwich in his hand (which he leaves on the coffee table) and after James plays Zoe's crack about it, the camera cuts back to Chris with a beer and another sandwich in his hand, then later he pulls a whole turkey leg [[{{Hammerspace}} seemingly out of nowhere]] and starts eating it, putting Corden into hysterics. After Corden plays the clip, he then asks (between laughter) if Chris 'cares to address' her comments. His response is to [[IResembleThatRemark take a big hefty bite of the sandwich]]... and [[HilarityEnsues realizes]] [[DidNotThinkThisThrough now he can't talk clearly]]. And to top off the bit, he hands the sandwich to fellow guest Creator/ImogenPoots, who flings bits of it while gesturing... which he ''picks up and eats''.
* The cast, mostly courtesy of [[http://amusementforme.tumblr.com/post/147722628443/star-trek-cast-dubsmash-masterpost-feat-the John Cho]], [[http://amusementforme.tumblr.com/post/148131797363/star-trek-cast-dubsmash-masterpost-part-2-feat plays]] with Dubsmash. Though, if you ask him, it's Zoe's [[http://soundsofmyuniverse.tumblr.com/post/148115449642/zoe-saldana-started-the-virus-shes-patient fault]].
* Paramount Studios' UK branch held a Twitter Q&A with the cast. When [[https://twitter.com/ParamountUK/status/752830635249639424 one fan]] asked Creator/SofiaBoutella about how she fared with the rest of the cast, she starts complaining about how horrible they were to her--while snuggled in a massive bear hug from Chris while he sings to her, and Creator/ZacharyQuinto kisses her head.
** When another fan asked Zachary about the Spock/Uhura relationship, he jokes that Spock [[https://twitter.com/ParamountUK/status/752830166708224004 outfitted]] her with a tracking device... in which case he was being literal. Spock inadvertently ''did''.
* The cast plays [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64oexwJamaI a game]] where they re-interpret normal household objects into objects used in space.
-->'''Zoe Saldana:''' ''[John Cho looks at a fancy cherry pitter and holds it to his face]'' [[http://kirkspocks.tumblr.com/post/147955290923/watch-as-the-stars-of-the-new-star-trek-beyond It's a vibrator.]] For non-human species.\\
'''John Cho:''' ''[drops it]'' YOU BAITED ME INTO THAT! ''[Zoe giggles]'' I want it to be noted for the record that Zoe Saldana led me into that trap!
* The official score soundtrack for the film is a HurricaneOfPuns involving titles like "A Swarm Reception" or "Hitting the Saucer a Little Too Hard," which is Standard Operating Procedure for Creator/MichaelGiacchino.
* Zachary Quinto appeared on ''Live With Kelly'' to promote the film and he and his dogs were invited to participate in a segment about proper dog hygiene. He ends up being a FunnyBackgroundEvent as one of the dogs starts wandering around the set and into the audience as Kelly Ripa is talking, and he fails to call his dog back to his side.
* Creator/SimonPegg explaining how Jaylah's name came to be in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPDIXesAnq0 the press conference]].
-->'''Pegg:''' We were trying to create this very independent character. But we didn't have a name for it. So we just called it "Creator/JenniferLawrence In ''Film/WintersBone''." That's a long name. So it started getting tiring always saying, well Jennifer-Lawrence-In-Winter's-Bone is fighting here. So then we started calling her "J-Law." And then she became "Jaylah."
* [[https://www.instagram.com/p/BIDmSyLAu_4/ Zachary Quinto incorporating Spock]] as he says he doesn't know anything about ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' while Chris Pine and Sofia Boutella imitate Pikachu.
* While promoting an Omaze fundraising charity contest in which the winner will receive a walk-on role, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XRToWcu0nw the cast]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-COeaGn5x0 goof around]], culminating in Creator/IdrisElba break-dancing.
* The gag reel is full with it: Flubs that lead into {{corpsing}} (while filming the opening scene, Chris Pine just can't say "Fibonan"), amusing ad-libs (Jaylah says the cable "It's too short!", Scotty adds "[[ThatsWhatSheSaid Not the first time I heard that from a lady]]"; Bones saying Kirk is manifesting [[BoldlyComing alien STDs]]); Uhura says that Krall needs a "distribution deal"; a take from one scene with Kirk in the bike featuring Justin Lin running instead... and Sofia Boutella remaining in-character as TheStoic [[TheComicallySerious even as everyone is cracking up]].

** Bones prepares for his last stand... by raising his fists and yelling. Keep in mind that, again, he was surrounded by flying swarm ships at the time. Then he's beamed too.
