Which is better: Star Trek or Star Wars?

[IronMan2055]

star wars does not only use lasers it uses pure energy thermal missles concussions missles and various other solid atack form and also sonic weaponry but you aslo have to look at the factr that there different time priods and different imaginative universes all together

Niether Star Gate rules baby!

let the flames begin

 

[IronMan2055]

and star wars isn't some fiary tale story it involves internal conflicts and political degenaration as well as an awsome fan base there are clearly many more star wars fans than star trek fans

 

[Pasi Nurminen]

Then why did the original Star Trek, which was produced long before Star Wars, have phasers, which it described as being superior to the obsolete lasers?

 

[IronMan2055]

of coarse the two most popular star wars and trek could ban the other less important star series

 

[IronMan2055]

note my last post but arn't phasers just lasers with less power so they incapacitate the one being shot at

No, they're not. Phasers (Starfleet weapons, anyway) can be set to various levels -- stun, heavy stun, kill, disintegrate, and so forth. Some species, such as Klingons, don't bother with stun settings. They're more refined than Han Salo's blasters. If you're interested, there's a Star Trek wikipedia with an article on phasers.

And just because there's more Star Wars fans than Trekkies at CFC doesn't mean there are more Star Wars fans in general. In any case, it doesn't influence my opinion any.

No way! Crappy Star Wars ships don't stand a chance!

None of the crappy Star Trek ships cant stand the chance of the mighty Death Star which can destroy a planet with a single shot!

Right on Ironmam!!! .

Do I sense a great battle between the Star Wars fans and the trekies . I know I am pro-Star Wars .

 

[IronMan2055]

even though i'm in favor of star wars the organ scrambler is awsome

Those Death Stars don't have much of a kill ratio I'm sure it would be easy enough for our heroes in Starfleet to disable one.

 

[IronMan2055]

but civgeneral the death star fires a giant laser dun dun duuunnn

 

[North King]

Star Wars' weapons are *blasters* not *lasers*, and that's an important distinction. The *blasters* are primarily... I forget, something like "excited gas" and the light is just a harmless byproduct. It's more than a laser, though.

EDIT: the Borg could pwn any imperials any day, though.

 

[IronMan2055]

well acuall they do the first one killed an entire palnet so theres a couble of billion then the second destroyed several large rebal ships so theres another couble hundred thousand even though as reaveled in tales of the bountie hunters the second death star was controlled by the assin driod Ig:88

 

[IronMan2055]

yes they are blasters but they do use cerntain lasers but there not normal there enhanced somehow

Not if the Death Star is protected by a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers and Star Dreadnoughts along with a a ton of TIE fighters.

I know, it can make scrap metal out of the Borg cube .

the Borg could pwn any imperials any day, though.

Bah, the Borgs would be shaking in their little space boots when they see the Death Star .

 

[IronMan2055]

and no they couldn't the imperials could defeat the borg hands down lets se the most powerful imperial ships are the second death star the excutor and the first death star each one had many star destroyers and many variuos tie now lets see the borgs have oh my god i giant cube ahhhh

 

[IronMan2055]

imperial dreadnots never heard of those are they the war time republics pre imperialistic version of the star destroyer

 

[IronMan2055]

when i looked up star dread nought it was a trekie ship

Hey, Iron Man no triple posts just quote multiple people in the "Go Advanced" area. Also, thank you RoboPig and MarineCorps for your lovely choices.

Oh, I don't know. A fast, tough ship like the Defiant could weave through those huge ships with ease. As a bonus, the Defiant has a cloak. And you're forgetting that the Borg have that nifty ability to adapt to energy after a few shots. Now a Jedi could do some damage on a Borg ship, especially since the Borg are pretty much space zombies -- they sort of lumber toward you...but instead of growling "Brains! Brains!" they say things like "Resistance is futile" and "Your culture will adapt to service us." But it's going to take any Jedi a very long time to clear out every single drone from one of those cubes.
