Star Trek vs. Star Wars
I’m just curious to see which series people on here like better so I made a poll since I’m bored.
In a battle, enterprise would destroy the millennium falcon, they have shielding so the Falcon’s weapons would be useless, the Falcon has no shielding so any strike would be fatal, and the Enterprise has transporters. They could literally beam large sections of their hull into space. Enterprise could likely easily take out even a super star destroyer with this tech. The only advantage Star Wars has is speed. They can cross a galaxy in 4 days, whereas a starship would take 200 years or so. This makes Star Wars ships roughly 18,000 times faster than a Starship. If they wanted to get away, there would be no stopping them.
I'm not a big fan of either, but I am more of a Star Wars fan. The stories just seem more interesting and all the characters are more entertaining and interesting. There is also more action. This is entertainment people, not science class. Who cares if Star Trek is more plausible or more kumbaya? To each their own I guess.
Ive loved Star Trek the next generation since i was a kid. The fact that that human beings have created a near utopia and eliminated poverty is an optimistic view of the future.
I think that I prefer Star Trek because of my age. It came out when I was a teenager and I really enjoyed it. I did like Star Wars as well but I will still watch Star Trek when it comes on TV. I must admit that I really like the parody that Earnie Fossilius did on Star Wars. (Hardware Wars)
I saw the original Star Wars in the theater when I was just 10...and saw it 7 times total. I was hooked. I've seen everyone in the theater since also...and multiple times.
It was just so much "bigger" than Star Trek since ST was on TV and SW was in a theater....so, while I loved ST (and Dr. Who on TV), I fell head over heels for SW.
You know there's a Star Wars group on here, right?
I won't choose one over the other. I love them both.
Was raised on both but didn't realize I had to choose until the world ruined it for me. Loved trek growing up but finally went for the force
When Star Wars debuted we had only William Shatner's Star Trek to compare it to. Shatner's acting style was abrasive to me and after reading the book then watching Star Wars on the big screen it was instant love. SNG is much, much better than the original to me as the Shakspearean acting method of Patrick Stewart is superior to the speak-and-pause of Shatner.
But, to each his own. Love them as only you can.
I find this a really tough choice because I love them both for different reasons. But I think I have to go with Star Wars because of the epic feel, family themes, the mysticism... Trek has many good qualities, but its a bit unrealistic in how it portrays the family.
Not a fan of either. I haven’t been able to make it through any Star Wars movies without getting bored and walking away.
