Well? Which do you prefer? ~:)
Star Wars is better.What the world would be without Darth Vader. ~:cheers:
I'm a trekky for life!! Nothing like watching Star Trek. Much better than Star Wars. Star Wars is too unrealistic for me...
there was already a discussion about this topic fairly recently in the Frontroom
unfortunately the search function appears to be fubared hence i can not link ot it
Star Wars will always be better. It has soul.
Are you crazy, BKS? That's what I LIKE about Star Trek, the people are real people. They actually develop plots and show motivation. Star Wars has all the dramatic depth of an Italian opera... everyone is the nicest, the meanest, the strongest, the weakest, the smartest, etc. People hop from being loyal and subservient to amibitious and power mad at the flick of a switch. Then back again! Besides, Klingons kick ass.
Perhaps soul was the wrong word...I just find Star Trek far too sterile. Star Wars has grand adventure, princesses, Lightsabers, incredibly evil villains, the lot, and a far more epic sweep. I get a feeling watching it that I just don't get from Star Trek.
The Empire Rocks! THe USS Enterprise gets annahilated by Vader and 5 stormtroopers with vibroblades.
Long Live ROTJ
No way man. A Klingon 'Sword of Khaless' class dreadnought & a captain that knows how to pilot her and every imperial cruiser would be up in smoke. Darthy would be toast in a 1-on-1 battle with just about any Klingon out there.

Yeah, but they're comparing an Imperial Star Destroyer, which I believe is a ship of the line for the Empire, to a Galaxy class heavy cruiser, which, while impressive, doesn't have the firepower of a dreadknought.
I actually never thought about that, but when you compare the sheer size of the Trade Federation, the Republic and the Empire to the UFP, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan empire & the Cardassian (oh what do they call their space...) you get my point. Star Trek all takes place in one quadrant, and star wars is thousands of times bigger, I'll grant you that.
I love both.
Star Wars for pure fun and escapism - and for returning back to childhood were simple heroes and dark knights ruled the world ~D
Star Trek for excellent stories and round characters
Star Wars is for the masses.
Star Trek is for a (relatively) small elite core of nerds.
Which is why Star Trek is better.
Also you cannot compare ships from Wars to Trek. Wars ships use lasers, which have been laughed at on Trek.
Some of that website is very wrong.

I'm not sure I follow you Martinus. Are you saying lasers wouldn't work in space? Because I hate to break to you, they do indeed. What dou think the US missile defense system is all about.
I did not say that. On one episode of TNG they come up against a ship with lasers and treated it with contempt.Quote:

Star Wars is best IMO, never liked Star Trek. If i should see a series, then I prefer Babylon 5 because it has a better and more realistic story than Star Trek. :alien:
I pretty much agree with that, Star Trek looks like a possible future and I love science fiction somewhat based on reality. As for Star Wars I `ve never really seen it, though I hope to do so in not too long.Quote:

I like them both equally. But Start wars geeks give me the urge to end their lives in the most painful way I can think of.
Star Wars. Love Star Trek, but Star Wars (including the books and all), I've loved all my life.
Hm....this looks like the beginning of a Geek War...i'd better drink some coffee!!
Magic coffee +1 Stamina!

I'll add Gah! to any other polls I make.
I really haven't watched any Trek on TV, but I've seen 2 of the movies, I think II and IV. The one with Spock dying and the one with the whales. The whale one was so preachy...
On the other hand, I'm a devoted Star Wars fan.
And BKS, that site is right on. Actually, I've seen it (or something very similar) in school. The best part was battling it out with the Trekkies. And of course leads to the "numerical advantages" whining and what not. Quite fun. ~:cheers:
GAH!!! You cannot compare them. It would be like comparing the Empire in Warhammer to Gondor in LOTR and Humans in Warcraft. :furious3:Quote:

Or even better. The Orcs from WH40K can beat the Orcs from WH, who can beat the Orcs from LOTR, who can beat the Orcs from Warcraft.
I was gonna say that. But someone said they could imagine it as a future. I can't, and also, if you can imagine that, why not Star Wars? They're both as far-fetched as each other.Quote:
