Default Star Trek or Star Wars?

I know how hard this decision is. But it has to be made! Please vote on which show has that little something you like a little bit more than the other. If you want to post your answer and reason why you picked your favorite please feel free!

Default Re: Star Trek or Star Wars?

As always, the question is, "Which Star Trek, and which Star Wars?"

The first three Star Wars movies are pretty good to excellent. Big part of my life as a kid. The latest two movies don't merit mentioning. I've never gotten into the comics or novels.

Star Trek - the original series, hokey as it is, is a classic. The Movies run from excellent (II - Wrath of Khan) to abysmal (V - the Curse of Shatner). STNG started OK, built up to pretty darn good (especially after Ensign Evil Incarnate left). DS9, same deal. With Voyager, the franchise "jumped the shark".

But, what series will I actually shell out money for to get it on DVD?

Babylon 5.

Oops! Triple post! Anyway, MOM and I would watch Bab5 together. The Sweet memories! Voyager jumped the shark!! GW I strongly disagree with you on that. The new show ENT has jumped the shark big time! But I do agree about the new SW movies. They suck a great many things!

Voyager jumped the shark. Enterprise set it on fire, put it through hoops, hog-tied it, twirled it over our heads, then jumped it.

I love the military feel and look of Star Wars. I love the way the Star Wars universe is set up, but I just love the Star Trek ships and weapons more. Sorry.
