The suits worn in Wendy's fantasy sequences of Kirk and Spock walking through the dessert are the same suits worn by Kirk and Spock in the Star Trek (1968) episode "The Tholian Web."
------------------------
Though they never ran a script writing contest, the production teams of both Star Trek Deep Space Nine and Star Trek Voyager allowed amateur writers in the general public to submit episode scripts for consideration, some of which were used in both series while they were on the air.
------------------------
Alice Eve (Audrey) previously played Carol Marcus in Star Trek: Into Darkness (2013).
------------------------
The mountain ranges in the background of Wendy's dream sequences are the Vasquez Rocks located in Agua Dulce, California. This has been a popular film location for Star Trek films and series, most notably seen in the Star Trek (1966) episode "Arena."
------------------------
The name tags of Wendy's "Geeksquad" friends at the mall use the same font as the opening titles of Star Trek (1966).
------------------------
Although Paramount Studios is the one holding the contest in movie, all Star Trek TV clips were owned and licensed by CBS. While Paramount originally owned and produced all Star Trek TV series and film, CBS has since taken over Star Trek's television rights. Paramount still owns the film rights, however.
------------------------
Toni Collette and River Alexander are both in The Way Way Back.
------------------------
At 5:28, Wendy, narrating her daily schedule, says "...get on the 321 bus...". When the bus pulls up, the number 0614 is clearly visible.
------------------------
Paramount Studios employs a security staff with a well-guarded entrance, making it nearly impossible for Wendy to have just been able to walk onto the studio lot.
