I like the both but I would have to say, a Trekkie.Quote:

I see it the other way around, the old movies look dated.Quote:

Original Star Wars films were quality, much better than the newer films with huge budgets and technology, they cost £80 to make , blue peter done the sets, and the costumes came from dodgy charity shops ,but it was class.
star trek forever and ever. nothıng wıll take away that bare-bones magıc of 1965 was ıt.
star trek forever. by the tıme star wars came out the world already sucked.
More commonly referred to as the light sabre.Quote:

Lucas in many ways has never bettered them and for what they are, they are damn near faultless. Star Trek has a great history of posing interesting philosophical questions and this reached it's apex under te captaincy of Jean Luc Picard. Shatner was fun and for baby boomers and those that enjoyed it first time around will probably never be beat. I loved generations when I used to do buckets and other mind altering naughtiness, the combination was great fun. Can't choose between either, feel nerdy enough already discussing it. Must wash brain.
Agreed! Star Wars is great! I was a huge Boba Fett fan until they changed his voice to be a God damned Kiwi from New fucking Zeland!!!Quote:

He sounded more 'Dirty Harry' in the original
I always thought the next Star Wars movies should have been completely retooled movies unrelated to the originals...perhaps a more indepth view into the bounty hunters
Maybe it's the rucksack/jetpack finding work in bars thing. Your right tho the Bounty Hunter us a great character and Bobba Fett kicked ass, jah jah binks just was an ass. Binks was like Chris Rock without the jokes suffering from polio. I always thought the character seemed like a bit of a clumsy racial stereotype as tho all black guys should be in the NBA and be stoners. Lando was the way to go he was one cool mutha.
Lando was cool...Jar Jar Binks talked like he should have been in an 1800's Blackface productionQuote:

Nothing, and I mean nothing comes close to the original three Star wars. The prequils were like stealing artifacts from some ancient high chief Indian burial ground. I know Yoda was in ninja mode and we saw the entire wookie culture but it was just....lame. Original Star trek and early Khan for me as well. Did you see some of the yeoman women on that thing?!?! Kirk was full on cheese but that's when acting led the way and cgi was fishing line tied to a model ;D
Jar Jar Binks was more racist than this......Quote:

And hell, they had the Middle East stereotype that owned Anakin Skywalker & his mother...also racist.
Which tells you which one I preferred.Quote:

Next Generation was about the only Star Trek I really enjoyed, Jean Luc Picard was far better at playing the Captain than Shatner ever was.
The Original Star Wars was amazing. I had all the toys when I was a kid, the x-wing fighter, AT-AT, Millenium Falcon etc.
If I were to choose between them, then Star Wars wins :cool:
You had the AT-AT?!?! You lucky bastard! I had the Millenium Falcon & X-wing Fighter, but other than that I just had the action figures.Quote:

Star Trek......dude, that's Capt. Kirk right there
All I can say is that both of you were spoilt by your parents to have those expensive toys.
....the overwhelming majority of my toys at that stage were hand me downs from my brother.Quote:

Star Trek TNG is an ATG.
I couldn't really ever get into Star Wars.
They just loved me as a parent should ... . .. . . . . :-XQuote:

Didn't know it for a year. Low and behold by then "worker friend" had moved away I was told. Peckerwood boyfriend was so so sorry and should have realized. Sis didn't know anything. Mm hmm. Part of me actually wished they were mistakenly given to Goodwill or Swap meet and some random kid got a mint Land Speeder for just .99 cents. Right. Never told my old man about that when I found out. He woulda called bullshat 10 times quicker than I did. Well this took a turn ;D:p. Hey feck it I still have the original Hot Wheel sets and old baseball and nfl cards.
Star Trek isnt Trekky anymore, its as if the latest series has been hijacked for Political propaganda ends much more than Voyager or STNG
Mandalorian is the most Star Wars content since the first 3 Star Wars movies.
I found this re-imagined Darth Vader - Obi Wan Kenobi battle. I was surprised how good it was.

The lockdown since last year had me watching shows I never cared for. Now I actually like Star Trek Next Generation. My boy is Data! whoever he is -he plays the role well. I like the episode where they go on board a ship that makes everyone sex crazed and that dyke looking chick Lt. Tasha Yarde? she got her hair done, wore a I Dream of Jennie-Fuck me outfit and gave it up to Data.;D I'm sure after getting freak by an android sized dildo- with his rpms per minute....regular dick will never do her just!

Check Seven of Nine, she has a body, she is in Star Trek Voyager.
I like the episode where a black planet's leaders capture her. Jungle fever exists in the cosmos it seems!Quote:
