20 Reasons Why Star Wars Is Better Than Star Trek.
- "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…."
sounds much cooler than "Space, the Final Frontier."
- Ships in Star Wars always realistically look used
and beat up; ships in Star Trek always look clean and shiny!
- Aliens in Star Wars don't look like humans with bad
masks! (Actually, they look more like muppets, but are yet still more
believable)
- Not one Star Trek film has ever made it into the top
50 movies of all time; All four Star Wars films made it into the top twelve!
- Star Wars is epic mythology; Star Trek is episodic
mediocrity!
- Star Wars has actual starfighters!
- In Star Wars, ships cross the galaxy in a matter of
weeks; in Star Trek, it takes 75 years!
- "Kuat Drive Yards Impetus Class Imperial Star
Destroyer" sounds much cooler than "Federation Galaxy Class
Starship"!
- Those pesky warp cores keep on blowing up!
- Imperials wear uniforms; Federation officers wear
pajamas!
- Ewoks are not as annoying as Tribbles!
- Star Wars has less stupid, useless Treknobabble!
- George Lucas doesn't have to resort to Q to cure
writer's block!
- Star Wars doesn't have a new time-travel episode
every friggin' two weeks!
- People actually line up to see Star Wars!
- Droids in Star Wars have way more functionality than
Data!
- Chewie could kick Worf's ass!
- Star Wars: "I sense a disturbance in the
Force…"
Star Trek: "Captain, I sense hostility!"
- It took Star Wars 3 movies and 6 years to accomplish
more than 4 series and 9 movies in thirty years could ever hope to
accomplish!
- Star Wars: "The mighty Jedi Knight
pulled forth his trusty lightsaber and prepared to do battle with a
dangerous foe."
Star Trek: "The officer in charge of security on deck 12,
section epsilon-beta-tau took out his reliable and puissant phaser, aiming
at his currently explicated antagonist."
