Title: Star Trek Vs Star Wars
Post by: AtariLegend on October 14, 2006, 07:56:52 PM
Star Trek Vs Star Wars

The subject matter is self explanatory.

What do you people think?

For another question:
Who would win in a fight between?Obi Wan and Worf? (Thanks to RubberBullets)

One is for nerds, and the other's for...nerds?

No offense meant to anyone who happens to like either.  :peace:

Nothing. That was just my way of saying that I don't like either.  :hihi:

I like them both.  Each has its own appeal.  Star Trek for techology and the future, and Star Wars for science fiction and great story telling.  If I had to choose, it'd definitely be Star Wars, but damn do I like Spock.

I'm for Star Wars, I've been a fan almost my whole life. I love the characters and the action. When I was a little dude, they were playing Return of the Jedi on TV one day, I used to watch Ewoks all the time and that's what caught my attention. I love them all but my favorite is Empire Strikes Back.

I don't got a problem with Star Trek though, if it weren't for them, there wouldn't be the Halloween movies. That's how they got the idea of Michael Myers' mask, they took a Captin Kirk(played by William Shatner) mask and changed it around.

... No. They were already filming the movie when they needed a mask for the killer, so one of the guys, I forget the precise story, went to joke shop or what-you-will and bought a Kirk mask and then... yeah. The rest is history.  :P

See, I don't think Star Wars is all that great... certainly over hyped.  But Star Trek the Next Generation had some fucking great shows.

Fact is... I'm not a nerd, and I still like some of that stuff.  It's not about being a nerd, or geek or whatever... it's about ... does the show offer good stories and characters? :)

None ;D I think Star Treck sucks and is pretty funny (when it's not supposed to be)

and Star Wars is way over rated. Well the episodes N? 1, 2 & 3 anyway. The old ones are classics.

Yeah, maybe here, but I mean in general press etc.

They all talk about Lucas like he was some kind of visionary, but The Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones and Revenge Of The Sith ... I don't know, they feel empty. There's nothing there, no script, no passion. And everything looks fake. The third one was a bit darker, but it deserve so much more ...

Te first 2 new SWs kinda sucked, but Revenge of the Sith was absolutely brilliant ! Of course, it has its bugs, but so did the old trilogy.

I'm talking about the general press myself. The papers, magazines and show and the like that actually matter tore Lucas for the final three. Though the third was excellent. And I really enjoyed numbers 1 and 2.

Star Wars all the way! Darth Vader has to be the best villain ever, and "Empire Strikes Back" is probably the best sequel ever. I can understand why some people didn't like the first two prequels, but ROTS is a masterpiece. Star Trek is ok too I guess.

"Due to its shoestring budget, the prop department had to use the cheapest mask that they could find in the costume store: a Captain Kirk (William Shatner) mask. They later spray-painted the face white, teased out the hair, and reshaped the eye holes."

:D

Aye, there you go. There's a documentary about it... well, not about it, but it's mentioned... On the Halloween 20th century DVD release. It's a cracker! I haven't seen it for a while.

Why go for 3rd best when you can go straight for the jugular.

This thread is pretty 1 sided, did anybody watch Star Trek and like it.

The X Movies.
The V TV series.

Apart from Enterprise, I loved all of Star Trek.

obiwan chopped off dude's arm in episode 4 New Hope and he chopped off anakin's arms and legs in episode 3

he's been known to dismember people before worf would be no different :hihi: :peace:

Obi Won is a badass, but he's no Anakin/Vader, who managed to wipe out the entire Jedi temple.

haha killing children is one thing but could even anakin leave his best friend, with no arms and legs, to burn a slow agonizing death next to a river of molten lava? :hihi: anakin doesn't count anyway...he was tricked into being evil...how dumb can you get?

obi-wan would use his jedi mind trick to make worf stab himself with that stupid klingon dagger :hihi:

Yes with that Klingon rage he has, what happens if Worf brings a phaser.

The lighsaber will deflect the one or two blasts Worf manages to get off before his jedi-induced suicide (I can't believe what I'm writing).

Star Wars Episodes 4-6 and the latest one, 3, are classics.  Star Trek, in my eyes, doesn't have a great classic movie.

That doesn't mean Star Trek is bad.  Personally, I enjoy the old Trek tv shows.  They have good messages:  most important being Captain Kirk will bang anything, anywhere!  Green chicks for god's sake!   :hihi:  I hope Bones got him a shot of space-penicillin at the Federation clinic.   :hihi:

and how can people compare the 12 odd hours of star wars with the 1000+ hrs of trek - at various points Trek has hit far greater highs, and descended to hideous depths - but to compare Star Trek as one entity is daft - not even Star Wars is one entity
