Star Trek needs a common thread connecting each movie so people have something to look forward to.
One of the reasons people look forward to Star Wars movies is that regardless of the the plots of each film, there is a much bigger story that unfolds with each new episode. This gives the audience a specific reason for anticipating the next film, even without seeing the trailer.
This is likely because it started out as a TV series, where each episode was a complete story that would be resolved by the end of the hour. Back then, it was uncommon for a prime time show to have a cliffhanger or continuing story. This meant that if you missed an episode, you could still tune in the next week without feeling like you've missed something.
It also meant that the producers could air the episodes out of sequence, making it perfect for later syndication.
