Original cast, then the new ones, and I don't care about next generation.

Next generation is the only star trek that isn't awesome, and it's not even decent.

When the new star trek movie came out I had my doubts but it was great even though when they blew up the planet Vulcan it meant history changed and none of the events in any of the shows except star trek enterprise would have happened.

I am very eager for the new movie that's coming up.

Star wars..... those guys are geeks.

Live long and prosper.

I said the same thing but they explained the change in the universe well with the death of kirks dad and the alteration of the timeline.

The new new one coming out looks amazing. All I can say is khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
 
I'll still stand by trek over wars though. Trek just also added so much for technology as well. Think of everything trek had that wasn't invented yet, from automatically opening sliding doors to an MRI machine. Stuff wasn't even thought of yet.

There is a set of sliding doors in one of our offices in NYC. Every time I visit and walk though those doors, I hear that Star Trek opening/closing sound in my head. I bet every person who walks through those doors is thinking the exact same thing.

I like Star Trek. I always thought of Star Wars as Lord of the Rings with light sabers and space ships.

I'm o.k. with everything being different.
Since the last movie was sooo good the options for a great less predictable story in the new movie are endless.


I can't wait for the new movie!

Anyone think Disneys Episode VII will be any good?

I actually do. Considering the amount of money spent, the intense criticism, and overall magnitude of what they've taken on I think they are going to approach very cautiously and do a great job. Then again the may have Boba Fett dueling with Buzz Lightyear, it's sort of hard to call.
 
Torchwood
Doctor Who

big drop to:

Enterprise
DS9
New BSG
Star Cops
Cowboy BeBop
Babylon 5
TNG
Voyager
Star Wars
Red Dwarf
ST:Original (it was too Laugh-In cute when I saw it as originally released, but it's aged well)
Stargate
Blake's 7
Space 1999
Old BSG
Buck Rodgers in the 25th Century

There is no way I would put Torchwood in the same class as Dr Who. Leaving Firefly and Farscape off the list completely is unforgivable.
 
Forgive me anyway, I haven't see Firefly, I thought the movie sequel too derivative to be a good standalone (and I've just streamed the first episode of Buffy last weekend and its two scary for SWMBO; good though) and Farscape. I've also not had Pliny the Elder.

As to the doctors: Eccleson, Pertwee, McCoy, Hartnell, Davison, Tenant, McCann, Smith, Troughton, T.Baker, C. Baker.

IMO, you HAVE to watch the [Firefly] series before you watch Serenity. Otherwise, you won't get a lot of it.

Wish they would bring Firefly back.
 
Firefly was by far the best space fantasy series. If it can make such an impact in only 6 episodes, imagine what a few seasons would have done.

I'd have to say that Firefly and BSG are the top two series to be on tv over the past decade (or more). Firefly is just as good now as when it aired originally. If you haven't checked out the BSG Blood and Chrome webisodes, you should. You can now watch the entire thing through (without waiting for the next pair to be released)... Frakin great stuff. :D
 
I may date myself, but has anyone mentioned Space 1999? A fantastic series from the mid-seventies starring Martin Landau and the lovely Barbara Bain.

Oops - I see it's been mentioned. Never mind.
 
There was a Star Trek movie marathon on SyFy over the weekend. I'm not ashamed to say I watched a good number of them all day Saturday. When watching the movies starring the next gen folks, I couldn't help but feel like they were just longer episodes of the show, and not necessarily great cinematic achievements. Not that I didn't enjoy them, but they weren't very captivating. Which is why I'm glad they're rebooting the movie franchise.

I also have come to the conclusion that Patrick Stewart had the best voice ever.
 
I was so against the new star trek... but it was awesome. All I can say is Into the Darkness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and
Kahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhn!

Disney is going to have to really step it up to save star wars from the lucas debacle but I have faith.

Old school star wars trumps star trek (though it was good)
New school star trek is bringing the thrashin'
