I can grant if official ports rather than fanmade which would help.
Star Trek: The Original Trilogy(1982-1986)
Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan(1982)
Early on in the film's development it was leaked that someone would die. Many bet on Sulu as Takei was becoming far too busy to reliably be called upon to return. The opening depicts the Kobayashi Maru sequence, in which M'benga(played once again by Kim Cattrall) is undergoing a mission where everyone is killed, revealed afterwards to have been a simulation Everyone appeared to die only for it to be revealed as a test. It's also established that Kirk is the only one to have passed the Kobayashi Maru. Kirk is retiring when Khan returns, played by Ricardo Montalbán. The Federation is testing the Genesis Device, which is capable of terraforming an entire planet with the downside that it must be tested on an uninhabited planet or it will kill all life. Ceti Alpha V is chosen by the Federation, despite the presence of Khan on the planet. The Federation officials responsible decide that killing Khan and his followers. a group including Chekhov go down to the planet to attempt to take Khan off by force. Chekhov and Terrell investigate Khan's ship and discover a small toddler. Chekov immediately tries to leave but Terrel asks about the child. Khan's forces overpower the search party.Khan reveals an alien parasite native the planet that is responsible for the death of his wife. The Parasite is used by Khan to take control of some of the staff, allowing Khan's forces to overpower them and in turn take control of the Reliant(slightly different design, OTL the design was submitted and approved by Harve Bennet but he opened it upside down. ITTL he doesn't).
Design for the Reliant
Khan forms an alliance with the Klingons and the Romulans separate of each other and begins to lay waist to Federation ships. This leads Kirk to come out of retirement to track down this new foe. He reunites with his old flame Janet Wallace from the episode "The Deadly Years". Kirk also discovers he now has a son named David Wallace, that Janet kept from him. David is leading a resistance against Khan. Kirk and Khan Kirk and Khan meet and battle it out with Kirk's ship being heavily damaged before Khan contacts Kirk. Kirk is able to keep Khan talking long enough to pull a surprise strategy and the Enterprise to escape and injure Khan's ship. Kirk and a handful of others go down to the planet, but the retreat of the Enterprise leaves Kirk and his crewmembers stranded, which Khan sees as a fitting punishment, leading Kirk to famously scream Khan's name!".
M'Benga asks Kirk how he beat the Kobiyashi Maru test and he reveals he rigged the test so that it could be beaten, claiming that he doesn't believe in the no win scenario, shortly afterwards the Enterprise returns and rescues them, leading to another match with Khan. Chekov purposefully doesn't tell Kirk Khan has a child onboard out of the fear that this knowledge would prevent Kirk from destroying Khan. Khan brings the ship towards Klingon space, threatening to start a war, but his ship is damaged before he can reach it. His dying act is to activate the Genesis Device. Spock boosts the engines to allows the ship to escape but is exposed to radiation in the process. He dies in front of Kirk, successfully saving the ship.
McCoy originally was to say "He's dead, Jim" but this was cut at request by Kelley who thought it would make the viewers laugh. Spock was intended to die permanently as Nimoy was tired of the franchise and. While making the film he enjoyed the experience and regretted his decision, realizing during the filming of the scene that he was making a mistake. As a result the film included the possibility of Spock's return, a zoom in to the newly created Planet Genesis and Spock's torpedo coffin on the planet with the "These are the Voyages" speech given by Nimoy.
Star Trek : The Search for Spock(1984)
Leonard Nimoy wished to not only return but to direct the film himself. The Klingons has by this point been over done in Nimoy's mind. Instead the Romulans were made the villains which was fitting as they were an old enemy of the Vulcans as well. Nimoy cast Edward James Olmos as the Romulan Nero, who commands a Romulan Bird of Prey. Shinzon was leading a group of Romulan miners, who are attacked by an alive Spock(unlike OTL he is an adult, only with amnesia and confusion and without a mind meld with McCoy). David Marcus and M'Benga, who have become romantically involved, travel to the planet and are captured by the Romulans. Violating procedure, Kirk and the crew steal the original Enterprise from a museum and travel to Genesis. Kirk's crew reach Genesis and are attacked by the Romulans. As a show of force, Nero has the Romulans kill one of the hostages he takes, David Marcus intervenes to save M'benga and is killed. Kirk sets the Enterprise to explode with the permission of the others and then beams down. The Romulans are confused until Nero realizes what is happening. The ship explodes, taking almost the entire Romulan Fleet except Nero's ship. Kirk and the crew watch in sadness as the original Enterprise falls to the planet's surface burning.
Krik and Nero battle while the Enterprise crew fight and hijack the Romulan Bird of Prey, ending with Kirk killing Nero in battle as Genesis collapses around them. The crew then escape on the Bird of Prey and flee to the planet Vulcan, where a ritual leads to Spock's remembering. It's implied by not stated that M'benga is pregnant with David's child.

Star Trek : The Voyage Home(1986)
As part of a deal made by Nimoy and Shatner, Shatner would direct the next film. Compared to the previous two, The Voyage Home was a comedy. It involved an alien probe coming to Earth and producing a signal that is identical to the then extinct Hunchback Whale. They then hatch a plan to travel back in time to 1986. They do so and plan to take bake two Hunchback Whales named George and Gracie. A conspiracy nut radio personality named Dr.Taylor(played by Eddie Murphy) discovers the Enterprise and becomes involved in their plan(OTL this idea was removed due to the backlash to Superman III and Richard Pryor's role. Which did not happen ITTL). Murphy took welcomed charge of much of the production, being a fan himself. Sulu was given more of a role in the film, including meeting a young boy who he realized was his ancestor and jumping into a Helicopter in order to steal it. After returning to their own time and stopping the probe. Kirk is put on trial with many characters including cameos defending him, including Roger C. Carmel as Harry Mudd, a continuity nod to the original episode "Mudd's Women" where Kirk promised to be a character witness as Mudd's trial, now Mudd is returning the favor. Kirk is punished by being demoted to Captain and given command of a new Enterprise. The Film's musical score was done by Leonard Rosenman.
Overall the so called "Star Trek Original Trilogy" is generally seen as while not terrible, having widely different tones per film. The first film is by far the best and the second film is seen as being a good sequel but not as good and the third is distant from the plot of the other two but worked for the humor and fun of it all. The plan for Shatner and Nimoy to trade films going forward was nixed. Shatner himself felt like his time on The Voyage Home became a film by Eddie Murphy as he dominated every aspect of the film. The rest of the crew was secretly glad of this due to hating Shatner. Several ideas for films including the crew meeting God and the resolution to the big conspiracy plot revealed in Phase II would manifest in future entries in the franchise.
By this time Star Trek: The Next Generation was to be released in 1987. Desilu wanted to test the waters of the new series and so plans for a new Star trek film were put on hold to see if the next series would be successful and whether or not a transition to a film series concerning that crew would be profitable, maybe even had a crossover between the two series.

Encanto:
Planned to be same as OTL despite the Butterfly nets such as the creators including Lin Manuel Miranda meeting the tour guide in Columbia who served as the inspiration for Mirabel and consulted on the film. One averted change is the character of Bruno, who was going to be called Oscar. He's still called Bruno since they come to the same realization that if fits better with the song. The film is also more of a commercial success without the Pandemic styming it in theatres. The film's fans are also much more tame by OTL comparisons. They've been criticized for attacking artists who draw the characters as "Looking too white" despite the artists often being of the same ethnicity as the characters and actual Latinos praising the art, while others claim some characters are gay and bisexual for either simply being able to shapeshift and simply not marrying a man.
Onward:
Possibly most likely Pixar film to get butterflied away, along with the Good Dinosaur, Monster University, the Cars sequels and Planes due to its low performance and audience reception, though what replaces it I can't say. Likely a yet unknown film. It's likely the creators would include the Father passing away message in another film while Chris Pratt and Tom Holland are friends and could easily feature in another film together.
Luca:
Another unlikely to be butterflied film while also not one really subject to Butterflies largely due to the creator's vision being well established.
Coco:
Is only slightly different.The Character is named Marco ITTL, which he was named until the creators realized there was a Similar looking character in Star vs the Forces of Evil. This and the fact that ITTL the family's name is not outright revealed, leading to many fan theories about it being a prequel(Given my own chosen name, which is just a happy coincidence, I couldn't butterfly away this change). The film also does not have Olaf's Frozen adventure accompany it in theatres, due to the Snow Queen being made earlier ITTL, and thus never becoming Frozen. The film is also credited with jumpstarting the Day of the Dead Parades in Mexico(OTL the film Skyfall did this by depicting such a Day of the Dead Parade in the style of Mardi Gras. TTL's Skyfall had a different location so that scene never happened and so it happens because of Coco instead. It helps that the President of Mexico was criticized for this as the country had economic troubles at the time and here he was spending money on a parade, while Coco was made a few years later and already a massive success in Mexico to begin with.
The Incredibles:
The Most notable, and somber change, is the inclusion of Snug, an old friend of Helen who takes them to the island and is killed when the plane explodes. The shot of Helen looking down at the cockpit is instead her looking at his hat floating down. Incredibles 2 is made earlier than OTL and has a different ending with The Screenslaver being taken down followed by the heroes working to defeat a surprise invasion of robots by the Underminer.

Star Trek: The Next Generation(1987-1994)
I'll be taking a break form Star Trek after this to go back to wrapping up more of the Comics. I'll return and do the TNG Films and the other series later.
Star Trek: The Next Generation
Based on ideas for a sequel series by Gene Roddenberry, who took control of the series, though the studio would fortunately his more insane or bad taste ideas such as a four breasted Counselor Troi, something Roddenberry was talked out of by his wife Majel Barrett.. The series was set 100 years after The Original Series and featured an Ambassador Class Star Ship. The Ship uniforms were changed with the higher rankings wearing Red as the color looked better on them. The show's theme was done by Dennis McCarthy(The Theme above was rejected and the theme for Star Trek: The Motion Picture was used. ITTL since the Motion Picture them replaced the original TOS version, this theme is used here instead to be different).
Then came time for casting. Patrick Stewart, Edward James Olmos, and Yapphet Kotto were among those who auditioned for the role of Captain Picard. Olmos was turned down due to having already played a Star trek antagonist. Jeffrey Combs and Vaughn Armstrong auditioned for the role of Riker. Eventually a cast list was set up to go through and narrow the candidates.
OTL Cast List
The Final cast list included the Belgian actor Patrick Bachau as Jean Luc Picard. Wesley Snipes as Geordi La Forge, Cheryl McFadden as Dr. Beverly Crusher, Kevin Peter Hall as Data, Denise Crosby as Counselor Deana Troi, and Rosalind Chao as Tasha Yar. A teenage girl daughter of Beverly was added to the cast named Lesley Crusher(played by Ashley Judd), before she was given a brother named Wesley, played by Full House's JD Roth. Wesley was implied to possibly be the result of a love affair between Picard and Beverly. Combs was cast as Riker. However, the creators also realized they should include a Klingon on the crew since the Federation and the Klingons had made peace, resulting in the inclusion of Worf, played by Michael Dorn, who was a Marine in the Klingon Empire before being transferred

Season One(1987-1988)
The Writers were largely hampered by Roddenberry's complaints, however Desilu had become well versed in ignoring him when they had to in order to create conflict in the cast. Most of the episodes were written by Gerrold(who stuck around ITTL rather than being driven off by Roddenberry).
The Pilot was Encounter at Farpoint ,which introduced Q, played by John De Lancie. A powerful being and member of the Q Continuum who tested the Enterprise and Captain Picard. The Q he Q continuum was shown to all look like John De Lancie and be race of identical looking people.
The Naked Space(OTL The Naked Now) hints for the first time that Data was not entirely an android but partly a biological life form as he is one of the members of the crew that contracts a space disease.
The Last Outpost introduced the Ferengi as recurring antagonists. If the Klingons represented the Soviet Union. The Ferengi represented unbridled capitalism. However, as by the end of the season a new enemy would be introduced that would usurp that role and the Ferengi would go threw villain decay.
The Big Goodbye introduces the Holodeck, which allows the crew to engage in fantasies by appearing in any setting they would like.
The Episode Terminus dives into Data's origins. Data is revealed to have been created by an alien species who's technology the Enterprise encounters. This species is never shown but is implied to be a race of machines that admired humanity and built Data in their image, intending him to be use to serve as the collected memory of a colony of humans wiped out by what is revealed to be the Crystalline Entity. Data is revealed this information from the person he thought was his creator, Dr.Soong, played by Keye Luke before his death at 86.
The Crystalline Entity is revealed to be luring humans inside it to drain them of energy. Data meets a female Android named Minuet who he forms an attraction to, learning his origins with her help before she is revealed to be working to sacrifice humans to the Crystalline Entity, becoming an antagonist(OTL this concept developed into Lore).
The Neutral Zone(not the OTL Episode of the same name) introduced Commander Billings, a Starfleet security officer who rescued Tasha Yar from the a nightmarish failed colony planet(made to be the same Colony as that in Data's origin). The Enterprise carries Billings on a mission to open trade with the Romulans only to be attacked, threatening to start an international incident.
The Second to last episode Conspiracy, introduced an insectoid Race of mind controlling parasites, which would have a significant role later into the series.
The Finale "Borg" introduced the new enemy, which is devastating Romulan and Federation outposts with both sides believing the other responsible.. The Insectoid Parasites being a vanguard for the invasion as they infect the Romulans in preparation for an invasion. This leads to a joint mission between the Federation and the Romulans to investigate this new threat, leading to the first real battle between the two sides and the Borg, ending on a cliffhanger for season 2(OTL the Neural Parasites from "Conspiracy" were intended to be connected to the Bog, who were originally an insectoid race before becoming Cyborgs. ITTl that connection is kept.

ITTl that connection is kept.
Season Two(1988-1989)
Following from the plan organized by Maurice Hurley, serving as the part 2 of the story arc of the Federation and Romulans teaming up to fight the Borg(Fortunately this butterflies away "The Child" AKA the infamous Mystical pregnancy episode). There were problems behind the scenes, Denise Crosby left the show. A scene was written that has her character Deana Troi, become a casualty of the Borg, giving her life to defeat them. Her telepathic abilities allowed her to grant the Borg emotion which leads them all to destroy themselves out of fear and pain for what they had become. Cheryl McFadden was also planning to leave, though she would later return and expressed a desire to do so. In a subversion of expectation, the Romulans due not join the Federation once the Borg are destroyed, seeing it only as a temporary alliance and nothing more, unlike the Klingons did.
The Next episode was "Blood and Fire," which was an AIDS Allegory. The substitute is the Regulan Bloodworm. David Gerrold introduced two gay characters in the story.
Episode 3 is known as the "The Khan Episode" by fans. The original idea was to have the Holodeck malfunction and introduce a new villain that way. Ricardo Montalban was planned to be brought back as Khan. He was reluctant as he was satisfied with Khan's death, but since this was not the true Khan but a hologram, he agreed(OTL the concept was Khan was revived by the Genesis device. Ricardo Montalban
The Shizoid Man focuses on Doctor Selar, played by Suzie Plakson. There is a romance developed between Selar(Vulcan) and Worf(Klingon). Selar reappears several times as a love interest to Worf. Selar also became a replacement for McFadden as Dr.Crusher.
The Final Episode of the Season is "The Emissary" which had a group of Klingons that have been cryogenically frozen since the time of the Original Series awaken and, not knowing the war is over(OTL this is the third to last episode. It's been moved up to provide a more satisfying Season Finale. The Second to Last was the Enterprise competing in a simulation and the Last was a clipshow as Riker was in a Coma recapping episodes of the series. ITTL the Episode includes the return of a few TOS Era Klingon enemies who are in their original appearance compared to the Bumpy head TNG versions, so its at least a little treat for fans.).

Season Three(1989-1990)
The Writers had problems writing with the Borg, specifically they felt they needed to construct the best possible stories for the Borg and so kept them out for as long as possible to prevent them from being overused.
For the First Episode, "Sarek", there was original plan to have the Enterprise meet a Ship from the past. The Plan was scrapped as the staff realized it worked better for a movie. Instead the plot became about Sarek and a group of Vulcans visiting the Guardian of Forever. They plan to conduct research into prehistoric Vulcans, but a rogue faction intervenes and goes back in time, killing the founder of Vulcan society, Surak. This changes history so the Vulcan become a violent race who are allied with the Klingons and the Romulans in a war the Federation is losing badly. Only Guinan realizes anything had changed. Sarek is captured and realizes through a mind meld with Guinan that something is wrong. He uses a mind meld on Picard. The Mission then becomes to bring Sarek to the Guardian of Forever. The Enterprise is attacked by a Klingon fleet led by Worf, who in a brutal manner kills Data, Riker, and Wesley, though their deaths are somewhat censored or implied as Data is decapitated, Wesley is electrocuted and Riker's throat is cut. Sarek jumps into the Guardian of Forever and take Surak's place in history, restoring the timeline.
"Los" is an episode in which Lesley Crusher befriends an alien cadet named "Los" who can change sex at will and the two develop a relationship.
The Season Finale was Part 1 of "The Best of Both Worlds" which finally brought back the Borg. Picard is captured and assimilated into the leader of the Borg.

Season Four(1990-1991)
The Continuation. Picard's knowledge and military expertise allows the Borg to devastate the Federation and set a course for Earth with the Enterprise under Riker forced to conceived a desperate strategy to save him and stop the Borg. This and Part 1 are considered the best episodes of the entire series. This Episode had the Enterprise save Picard.
The Finale was Redemption part 1 of a storyline focusing on Word leaving the Enterprise to fight in the Klingon Civil War
The Finale was Redemption part 1 of a storyline focusing on Word leaving the Enterprise to fight in the Klingon Civil War
Season Five(1991-1992)
The Season Premiere was the second part of Redemption, concluding the Klingon Civil War arc.
The Second Episode "Darmok" is same as OTL and is seen as one of the show's best.
Unification is a two parter that featured an appearance by Leonard Nimoy as Spock, who is attempting to unify the Vulcans and the Romulans and Picard while the Enterprise crew search for Spock after he went missing.
Robin Williams appears as the time travelling "Doctor Rasmussen", who visits the Enterprise in the episode "A Matter of Time", a reference to his time as the Doctor in the American remake of Doctor Who.
It was difficult for the writers to conceive a follow up to "The Best of Both Worlds" and so partway through the series Picard was found and restored with an episode dealing with the reaction the crew has towards him and how being Locutus of Borg damaged his relations.
This was followed up by "I Borg", where the crew rescue a lone drone who gains individuality. They then at the end make the reluctant choice to send him back, with the implication there would be consequences for introducing individualism to the Borg Collective.
The Series Finale is Time's Arrow Part 1, which has the crew discover Data's Severed Head before travelling back in time and meeting Mark Twain.

Season Six(1992-1993)
The Season premiere, Time Arrow Part 2 continued the story of Part 1.
The Episode "Relics" features a guest appearance by James Doohan as Montgomery Scott, who was preserved due to disappearing in an experimental transporter almost a century prior.
Mid Season had the two parter Chain of Command, in which Picard is captured by the Cardassians and the Enterprise is taken over by Captain Jellico, a far more dislikable Captain, though far from incompetent.
The Episode Tapestry has Picard appear to die due to being shot in his artificial heart. Q appears before him and allows him to redo a moment in his life that led to him needing an artificial heart. This changes time and Captain Kellico is Captain of the Enterprise in the Alternate Present. Picard chooses to go back and willingly go through the actions that lead to his artificial heart.
"Second Chances" had the first tease of the TNG version of the Mirror Universe where a duplicate of Riker appears, initially appearing friendly, he is soon revealed to be faking his kinder attitude. The Episode leaves it somewhat vague which Riker won and which one was destroyed.
The Series Finale Descent Part 1, has the Borg reappear but this time appearing to act much more independently. They are shown to be led by Minuet, who has become "The Borg Queen" and who begins to corrupt Data into joining the Borg by making him experience emotion.

Season Seven(1993-1994)
The Season Premiere is Descent Part 2 and continues the story with the finale defeat of Minuet.
The Two parter of the Season is Gambit, in which Picard appears to be killed only to be discovered undercover as a group of space pirates who had abducted him, which engage the Enterprise in battle.
Parallels is the Mirror Universe Episode the staff had been attempting to do with the Mirror Universe finding a way to cross over. The far more militaristic crew of the Mirror Universe Enterprise clash with their counterparts, intending to steal technology to use in their own universe's war against Spock, who was reformed the Empire with them being rebels.
Finally there is All Good Things. The Series Finale. The Special has Picard jumping between four time periods for unknown reasons. The first episode of the series. The Present, the Future and one where he is Locutus, allowing the Borg to become aware of what is transpiring and interfere. Picard is kicked out of the Locutus timeline but that does not prevent the Borg from coming after them. In the Future, Picard and the crew(as a homage to Star Trek II), steal the Enterprise from a Museum. Q appears and reveals the existence of an anomaly in time. The Enterprise from three Time Periods succeeds in restoring time. While the episode ends with Picard joining the crew for a game of Cards. It would be revealed later on that the Borg remembered this encounter from the experience as Locutus and began to experiment with time travel.
The Two parter of the Season is Gambit, in which Picard appears to be killed only to be discovered undercover as a group of space pirates who had abducted him, which engage the Enterprise in battle.
