I feel skeevy about it just seeing the headline.
Part of the overall fever-dream, acid-trip madness, who knows?
Thank you, but I’m far from the first person to notice it (there is other wierd footage in that scene as well, including shot of a snake crawling on a man’s face), and given that a particular version of the film has that moment deleted, some people may have never been exposed to it. It’s just very strange!
In some versions of WW&TCF, during the scene in the tunnel boat ride, among all the general craziness seen in the background, there is a clip (stock footage, I assume) of a live chicken’s head getting cut off. This is in what is ostensibly a children’s movie. It’s quick but if you notice it, blargh....
So much material to choose from, a whole limitless universe of new characters to introduce and we’re getting an adopted sibling for Spock who was never once referenced in canon before.

I can’t wait for another (of what feels like at least) 37 hours of hearing “Tetsuo!” and “Kaneda!”
Wells was onto something (though I find them fascinating animals):
Can we just all agree that all of our uncles work for or have worked for Nintendo?
We’ve had a Vancouver down here since 1825!
Imagine what that...arrangement... of hair would look like if it wasn’t pasted back over his ears.
What we need is relief from that long stringy mess of hair plastered over his ears <shudders>.
