In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Well it really depends
SW vs TOS = Draw
SW vs TNG = SW wins (but not by much)
SW vs DS9/Voy/Ent = SW by a landslide

I like both but Star Trek is the universe I would rather live in.
Also it is simply a bigger, and arguably better franchise.

Star Wars for me. I was angry with the prequels until I read this article and then watched it following the Machete Order. This is the only way to watch it IMHO.

Ask me maybe 3 or 4 years ago and I would have said Star Wars hands down.
But lately I've been warming up a little more to Star Trek.
So I voted for 'no strong opinion'

I'm gravitating slightly more towards Star Wars - both for it being more of a gritty Space Opera as well as it, quite ironically, being more realistic than Star Trek - but I really love both franchises, so I voted "no strong opinion".
Ever since watching the ST reboot, I sadly fear that the golden age of Trek is gone - but as long as they'll continue to show TNG on TV, I'll be happy.

Don't care that much for either. But purely out of seeing how gakky the star wars movies were (imo!) after hearing so many stories that kind of blew it so i'll go with ST.

Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless and perfunctory gift nobody ever asked for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down because there's nothing left to drink. Sure once in a while there's a peanut butter cup or a English toffee, but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits of hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those all you've got left is a. An empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers. |

Both shows are a serious nostalgia trip for me, my grandpa and I watched the Original Star Trek together on VHS tapes we made a weekly excursion to public library for. Then TNG, Voyager, and DS9 with my dad. Who also introduced me to the amazing world of Star Wars.
I really like Star Wars. It's probably one of my favorite "universes" to play in. I wouldn't even want to be a jedi, x-wing pilot is more then bad ass enough.
but if I have to pick between the two...
but Star Trek beats it out for me. Star Trek is a fantastic show that honestly does give me some hope for humanity. The best kind of scifi that truly imagines a better tomorrow for all humanity. We need that I think... now more then ever.

Even the prequel trilogy for Star Wars is better than Trek. The original Star Wars trilogy is practically an institution.

I cant call a favorite. It all depends on my mood. If I want high tech "clean" scifi, its Star Trek. If I want gritty (possibly more realistic) scifi, then its Star Wars.
However, I will say that Babylon 5 is by far my favorite scifi TV show of all time. Automatically Appended Next Post:
Technically neither does Star Wars anymore...

I am a Star Wars guy too, obvious win.
Huge epic battles, giant beasts, great effects, twists in the story and characters. Fallows Darth Vader's entire life. With aliens of different sizes, giant cities, fast galactic fighting, and darker characters and times.
Star Trek, it was all battleships in space. It was 100% navy. They have slow galactic battles where you wait for commands, fist fighting scenes that even an 18 year old could win, and aliens that were all the same shoe size. Most episodes were get a problem, solve a problem. Hard to get pulled into a story that is solved so fast, and is filled in an office like setting (or stage).
I do like character story boards like Spock, Worf, the Borg, Data, as they had dominate inhuman traits that made them seam more like movie characters rather then sitcom characters. I also enjoyed how the first Star Trek had a mix of characters that all had different accents and personalities.
