    Little trivia for you.. the lady who played nurse chapel on Star Trek eventually became Gene Rodenberry's wife. Its also her voice you hear when the enterprise computer talks in the original star trek and Star Trek the Next Generation.

    I thought it was Troy's mom that was the voice of the computer in TNG

    I love both Star wars and Star Trek, but Firefly is hands down my favorite and Serenity is such a great movie. Okay now I want to do a firefly marathon this weekend :tongue:

    I LOVE both.

    Star Trek probably would win the vote for me except they lost points with Voyager. What an awful series.

    I like them both, but given the choice to only see one, it would be Star Trek. I've watched all Star Wars movies at least once, but I've seen all the Star Trek movies several times.

    Star Trek, without a doubt. Star Wars is okay but the original Star Trek series had more depth and better writing. I never got that much into the other Star Trek series.

    Also loved Firefly and Serenity

    Star Wars by osmosis....i married a Star Wars geek and we walked into our wedding reception to the Imperial March (it was totally awesome)

    Only good think about Star Trek was Patrick Stewart.

    George Lucas should leave the original 3 movies episodes IV,V,VI alone and quit trying to make it better with C.G.I. effects.
    I was a big fan of the original Star Trek series growing up but didn't care too much for the "Next Generation" or the other spinoffs.
    I did enjoy the Star Trek "Reboot."

    Star Wars pre-quel except for episode I in my opinion, lacked the dynamic of characters that made the first 3 movies so good.

    Such a fun topic to talk about and get everyones opinion. Takes your mind off of counting calories!!

    With dogs named Yoda and Wookiee, I think you know on which side of the argument I fall. :-)

    As a Sci-Fi geek, this is a tough question. I would have to go with Star Trek due to a more in depth universe and a much larger story arc and lines. and the Skywalksers men are kinda of whiners.

    (I know this is odd because of my online persona)
