    Possibly worthy of a separate thread, but Star Wars over Star Trek.......

    For me Star Trek all day long, my favorite genre, "The next generation"

    IMO! Star Wars can be enjoyed but it does not really provide you with any sort of challenge that makes you think.

    The beauty of Star Trek was that so many episodes were written to raise social, ecomonic or moral issues, at the end of the day Star Wars is a graphical arcade game where there is a damsel in distress and a baddie dressed in black.

    Please discuss

    ;wink

    And an honourable mention for Firefly, which never got past its first season.

    I never liked the original Star Trek too much Ham and wobbly Aliens.

    Too much Ham?

    Both, for me.

    They are 2 completely different things. Different genres, different formats... different audiences. And each 'of their time'.

    I always hated Star Trek as a kid but Star Wars was easy to like.

    Will give the new Star Trek on Netflix a go though.

    Outcast

    I've started it, and like it so far.

    Apparently die-hard Trekkies are unhappy with it (or parts of it...)
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Yeah, I'd heard it was good. Die-hard trekkies, star wars, comic book fans tend to hate everything anyway.

    Wasnt the original musical score supposed to be done by Darth Punk featuring Jabba Ranks? Or was it the Sith Dimension?

    That should Force the thread into a (Phil Fearon and) Galaxy far, far away

    There now follows a brief musical interlude:
