Star Trek or Star Wars?

[gregebowman]

What Atrocities said. I grew up as a Trekkie (yes, I use that phrase. I'm first generation, baby!), so I was a ST fan thru & thru. Then Star Wars came out, and changed that. Not overnight, of course, as I can watch hundreds of hours of ST, but only 10 (soon to be 12) hours of SW, not counting the various cartoons. But the scope of SW is so much more than ST, and the history is so much more than ST, which can only claim to be about 300 years, as compared to at least 4000 years during the Sith War period, and approximately 20,000 for when the Old Republic was conceived. As far as the ships, I loved the old Enterprise, but I'd kill for a ride on the Millenium Falcon. And another thing I love about the SW universe is that, with Lucas's approval, everything in print is included in the continuity of the SW universe, unless Lucas changes it in a movie. Paramount's position is that if you see it in a movie or series, it's canon; if you don't see it, it didn't happen. So give me Star Wars anytime.
