    Star Wars > Star Trek.

    This should end the long ongoing argument.

    Wow. That was really really cool. Very well made. They had a great eye for scale. The Death Star really looked more realistic than Star Wars.
    I'm impressed.

            DS9 kicked Voyager's ass!
            Here's how it goes:
            TNG, TOS, DS9, Voyager, Ent.

            Not that I think Enterprise sucked or anything, it's just my least favorite and I really don't think shouldn't have been made. IMHO.

              I really thought this was going to be something else that might tick off the nerd in me too. But this was very well made. You should watch it. I made my wife watch it. Here eyes are still rolling.

                      We need a new Star Trek series on TV.

                        Good grief where does Trek need to go that it hasn't before? At least it was science fiction although of a fairly simplistic sort. Star Wars is merely space opera, good or bad depending on your outlook, but about as far from groundbreaking in SF ideas as it is possible to get. 1930s pulp stuff is sophisticated by comparison. Hollywood almost always screws up SF, even what little really good material they deign to adapt from real SF writers. I can think of exactly one film that was as good or better than the book from which it was developed and that is Blade Runner. It was adapted from a minor piece in the Philip K. Dick oeuvre and expanded on it nicely. Although Blade Runner was good I was sad that they did not use Dick's most wonderful title, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" It was real SF which in my definition explores the effect of technological change on societies. Not one percent of alleged film science fiction satisfies that imperative. There are tens of thousands of exquisitely imaginative literary properties out there just begging for a quality screen treatment yet H-wood virtually always sees the need to pay some scientifically illiterate hack a huge wad to write moronic flashy trash that may put butts in the seats but is about as intellectually challenging as an episode of Jersey Shore. Don't see that trend changing course any time soon, if ever.

                            'Scuse me, I cannot believe the blasphemy here. TNG > TOS? I can barely type that. No freaking way!

                            As for Star Wars, it was good stuff, at least at first, although as Darwin says it isn't really science fiction at all, which is not a bad thing. The bad thing is how it started off so great, then went down a little, movie by movie--until The Phantom Menace, when the whole franchise exploded--no, that's too exciting--fell right apart in a sad, wet plop of midichlorians, Jar Jar Binks, and Anakin the Annoying--to say nothing of his poor, hapless slave mother whom nobody could save, no way, no how, we can only shake our heads and cry. And I did, because I *loved* Star Wars--long, long ago, etc.

                              Yeah... That made me start twitching a little bit too - TOS will never be topped. The newest movie on DVD was actually pretty good though.
