Quote HistoryQuoted: Read demographics regarding education between fans of the two franchises and Star Wars fans are less well-educated. What’s your point? The people that voted for Trump were “less well-educated” than those who voted for Hillary. You some sort of commie? |

Star Trek uniforms are like velour sweaters in the faculty lounge. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: star trek federation is the liberal fantasy of how communism and global government would actually work. star wars empire is how it would actually work. corrupt, evil, most people are dirt poor scavenging tech from previous generations. you can't really appreciate one without the other |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Why fight them then? Just hyperspace to their planets, bombard and invade. If the wars ships are stationary trek ships trying to engage at warp speed would be out of range before they could fire. Even if warp speed and hyperspace were somehow the same and they could stop the wars ship in transit, the empire has thousands and thousands of stary destroyers, can't stop them all. And really they could just come out of hyperspace, force the fight, and go again. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Can't fight what you can't catch...  Why fight them then?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Everything after DS9 is mostly shit.  But yeah, DS9 was the pinnacle of Trek for sure. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: if naomi had been airlocked along with her entire story arc the expanse would be a 10/10. and the weird shit on the other worlds was never fleshed out. the way it ended they should have never even brought it up. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: BSG stepped it up for sure. Expanse took it to a whole other level. https://thumbs.gfycat.com/EquatorialSelfreliantAfricanmolesnake-max-1mb.gif (I wish I could find the longer version of this, where they change directions and the sparks all fall accurately...) the way things were filmed, it gave the feeling of weightlessness, a truly foreign environment and made it a constant part of the story. http://pop-culturalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/expanseShed.gif Holes in the story aside, they worked damn hard making sure you knew the rules of how things moved were different out there. Everything else looks a little silly now. if naomi had been airlocked along with her entire story arc the expanse would be a 10/10. and the weird shit on the other worlds was never fleshed out. the way it ended they should have never even brought it up. I feel the same for the girl power soldier from mars and the political chick from earth. I watched expanse, just skipling any parts with those two, when they both ended up on the rocante I stopped watching. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: the expanse ruined all other space battles forever. https://filmschoolrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/TE_loose_matl_ez1.gif This. Voyager sucked, but is still 100x better than Picard/Lower Decks/Discovery/etc. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: although it was more murder mystery type vibe, i enjoyed the brief series of whatever show that was where they woke up and called each other number 1-6. the acting/dialog/plot were better than any star trek, and their ships seemed much more like ships than trek, which looks like the halls of a hampton inn, or wars where ships look like a 50s burger diner Dark Matter. May the assholes that cancelled it die a horrible death by stump grinder.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Read demographics regarding education between fans of the two franchises and Star Wars fans are less well-educated. What if you like both?  I pretty much like all sci-fi unless it's really bad. Like Battlefield Earth. |
