Is Star Wars Better Than Star Trek?

[Jarrod Mushar]

I'm not, and never have been a Star Wars fan http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/shocked.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':O'>   So I'd say No!

[lucasbailey]

Yes!

btw: Stargate is now on Season 10, being the longest tv series of scifi to run since X Files.

[Kawolsky]

What makes you say that?

[Kawolsky]

same with me. I do like Star Wars, dont get me wrong, but there is more of Star Trek and, like Hobson, I've been interested in it since I was very young (I was about 7/8)

[Kawolsky]

True. Humanity could still be fighting between each other. If we dont get world peace before we invent some sort of extended travel spacecraft, we would probably still be fighting between each other, in space.

[lucasbailey]

Realistically, despite the fact that i am primarily idealistic, there will never be world peace. Its impossible...

Sad, but true...

[Kawolsky]

True. It's a shame though

You were a wee one!?

the first trek i ever saw was riker beaming down to an alien planet over lookng a desolite valley, from then on i knew i was a fanatic. at first it was only TNG then DS9 then Enterprise then Voyager and somewhere along the line TOS.
i like star trek because they ( Gene Roddenberry and writers ) didn't always resort to fighting to solve their problems.
also some of the technology is probable, and the stuff that isn't is explaned and by their time seems at least possible.  http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/klingon.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':klingon:'>

[Kawolsky]

I don't know. Maybe they are both the same

IM not sure. I have read alot of Trek Vs. Wars papers, all of which sayin wars i better than Trek, but we have to consider some of the finer points-Star Trek is based upon human beings whom originated from earth, using plausible technology. Whereas Star Wars is totally blasted out of all proportion.

You would need an Omega-based power source to power the star destroyers as ech blast from a turbolaser is between 500,000 Gw to 1,000,000 Gw.

However the Goa'uld from Stargate are much more plausible race. For example they have symbionts, similiar to those of the Trill.

On a last note, I believe the reason for the success of Star Wars is because the characters are 'rebellious'. It is similar to that of Terrans sea-faring days, it is like a giant free for all. This, I believe is the reason why Star Wars was a igger hit than Star Trek.

Although, Dont get me wrong, I am still a firm Trek fan http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>.

Therefore, I answer this poll:

No, Star trek is Better than Star Wars

Also, I get the feeling that there are some X-Files fans here too........
Ryan out

5 Series' and 10 Movies on Trek (from a quick count if that is wrong). More material.
I never got into Star Wars really though, I am not really much of a Sci-Fi fan other than Trek, I just got drawn into Star Trek at a young age so I've stayed interested in it all this time. http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Thats not to say that years in the future (and i mean 'years'http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> that we couldn't have a universe thats some what like the SW universe...

(W/o the imperials though http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> )
