I don't think we have one of these yet!?!

 

Which one do you like the most Star Trek or Star Wars, and why?

 

In light of a possible upcoming ludicrous speed ring for Windows 10.

Star Trek (Not including the JJverse) is far better! Well..Some of it anyways lol

I never watched any of the Star Wars TV shows..I love the original Trilogy for Star Wars. Might watch those again..And I am excited about the new Star wars movie. I hope it's good..

While I do enjoy watching Star Wars sometimes, I still prefer Star Trek, and have watched each episode (Not including TAS) at least six times lol Only seen each TAS episode once..

I'm about to watch every episode of Star Trek in chronological order. Should be fun haha

You left out the best installment of Star Wars, the Holiday Special! Well, it was better than Attack of the Clones, at least. :rofl:

 

But really the best Star Wars movie is Spaceballs!

 

Of course, neither Trek nor Wars can hold a candle to Doctor Who.

I am super fan of Star Wars! (Y)

 

Darth Vader: Luke, you can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son.

I chose Star Trek, TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY. WoK, SFS for the movies.

 

EP 4, 5, and 6 for Star Wars Movies.

 

J.J had better do the new Star Wars movie right, or there's going to be some serious problems when the other two come out.

They cater to very different sci-fi subsets that each have their own merits. Trekkies argue about which brand of sub warp singularity coil Picard used in alternate universe 23b... Star Wars is less about technology and more about Jedi pew pew boom yay.

 

If you try to look at one through the lens of the other, they make no sense. I prefer Star Wars, personally, the universe is just more fun (as evidenced by things like the video games) and usually doesn't even try to make much sense - at best, just serving as character dramas that could as easily have been fantasy as sci-fi.

 

And Star Wars fans can always emergency escape the argument by asking if Kirk or Picard is better.

You summed up my feelings perfectly. I enjoy both franchises, but they cater to different tastes. It's not a fair comparison. That said, Star Wars. :p

I enjoy both. Both created amazing memories for me growing up. My father passed when i was 9. I grew up sitting on the couch or recliner with my baby brother watching it.

So I love both, but I do have to say, I'm not a huge fan of the 1, 2, & 3 Movies. I enjoyed the back story, but leaving it at 1, 2, 3, and starting 7, 8, & 9 just seems stupid.

Borderline:
I love both. Why? Because each one has it's own variance. I do need to buy the collections again :D My brothers friend jacked 'em :(

Oh man, it gives me tears to hear you say, that you have high hopes for the new movie. I'm sorry, but I'm by far, more curious about BEFORE, rather than after.

I find that if they did a before, it could be a lot more interesting. I'd like to see the Director's of the LotR Series & The Hobbit Series, do Star Wars. I'm also excited for the new Star Trek movie, if it actually happens. With Spock's death, I'm not sure how well it'll work out. Who knows!

Star Wars for me.

 

Now, which of you fools have liked Star Trek V and Star Wars I - III? Own up. 

Star Wars III was reasonable, certainly better than the terrible I-II. There's no excuse for liking Star Trek V though.  :p

If they do bring the NX Series back, then I would hope they would explain the horrible finale for ENT, with Tucker dying also maybe focus on the Nx-02/Columbia as well.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I must admit, this is probably the only game at the moment where I can see that $80 price point being ok. The issue will be when other developers think they can get away with it with half of the work.
    • Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers by Fiza Ali Google has announced that Google Wallet is becoming the first digital wallet to integrate with TSA PreCheck Touchless ID. It is a programme that lets eligible travellers move through participating airport security checkpoints using facial recognition instead of showing a physical ID or boarding pass. While the TSA PreCheck Touchless ID programme has been available for some time, using it hasn't always been straightforward. The programme currently operates at 65 airports across the US, but participation has largely depended on flying with a limited number of airlines. Travellers also had to upload passport information separately through participating carriers. Now, the tech giant's new integration is designed to remove some of those extra steps. With the update rolling out in the coming weeks, travellers with TSA PreCheck membership will be able to enrol in Touchless ID through Google Wallet and use the service with any of the 100 airlines participating in the programme. Rather than repeatedly submitting identification details, users can store a digital ID in Google Wallet and use it to streamline future trips. Setting up the feature is relatively straightforward as well. The process starts with users creating a digital ID in Google Wallet using their passport information. After checking in for a flight and saving a boarding pass to the app, eligible travellers will see a "Get started" option that directs them to the TSA enrolment process. Once users choose to share their ID pass and boarding pass information with the TSA for a specific trip, the agency will verify the enrolment. If approved, a TSA PreCheck Touchless ID indicator will appear on the boarding pass stored in Google Wallet, signalling that the traveller can use designated express Touchless ID lanes at participating airports. As privacy and security are likely to be key considerations for many travellers, Google says users must explicitly opt in before any information is shared with the TSA, and authentication is required through a device PIN, pattern, or biometric verification. The company also notes that digital IDs stored in Google Wallet remain encrypted and are kept on the user's device. For frequent flyers who already use TSA PreCheck, the new integration could remove a few more steps from the airport security process, making travel slightly faster and a little less cumbersome.

      Even though MS had to sunset the Windows Subsystem for Android, you can apparently use BlueStacks to run Android in Windows now. I haven't tested this yet, so if anyone has any feedback, I'd love to hear it.
