An "all star" movie of captains and first officers wouldn't be like that at all. It would be too contrived. First, it would be contrived in how they get together from across time. Second, it would be contrived in how the "work" in solving the conflict is divided up (do we want Janeway to do this or Picard; should Sisko lead the ships into battle or Kirk; is someone the "leader" of the captains; should Archer be the ultimate hero or should it be Kirk).

For Hollywood hacks yeah. Whendon did just fine.
Who's Iron Man anyways? |
In a 5-year period prior to
Avengers we had Iron Man movies, a Thor movie, a Captain America movie and a Hulk movie. By the time
Avengers came out, the general movie-going public were reminded of/became familiar with these characters who would eventually team up for that film.
Unless you are saying we should first have a separate Sisko movie, a separate Janeway movie, a separate Archer movie and a separate Picard movie in the few years prior to them teaming up for your
Avengers-style Star Trek film, I doubt the general movie-going public would care that much about those characters.
Even then, I don't think those characters are all interesting enough to carry their own film. More people knew who Iron Man and the Hulk were before their separate movies came out than who know who Janeway, Archer, and Sisko are. Granted, a lot of people know who Picard and Kirk are, and we DID already have one "Picard and Kirk save the Galaxy" film -- but the advantage of that film was that it had the original actors.
