Star Wars vs. Star Trek

Doesn’t that end up being Borg Cube vs. Deathstar?

I meant mano a mano, but that might be interesting. Why limit ourselves though? How about the full resources of the Empire vs. the Borg Collective?

or the Dark Side vs the Hive Mind?

“Give in to the Dark Side!”

“Um, sure!”

BOOM

Maybe we’re looking at this all the wrong way? How about the Empire, assimilated by the Borg, against everyone else?

“Welcome, young Skywalker. You will be assimilated.” :eek:

Next round:

Emperor Palpatine vs. Borg Queen

mano a mano- The Emperor wins. A little force lighting and you get Kentucky fried Borg

Borg Cube VS. DeathStar- DeathStar wins. It has a laser that destroys entire planets. No amount of shield adapting can repel firepower of that magnitude!

Empire VS. the Borg Collective - Borg collective as a whole wins here. The Imperials are too inept. Resistance is futile.

Darkside VS. Hive Mind- The Darkside wins here. The darkside would twist and turn the hive mind. It would have an adverse effect on the hive and cause the Borg to stop functioning.

Empire Borgified VS. Everybody Else- :eek: The results would be something like this…

Probably not too far off. Imagine a Death Star in every Borg Cube. The power of the Dark Side spread through the entire Collective. Awe-inspiring. :eek:

New round. This should be interesting…

SW EP1 The Phantom Menace VS. ST V The Final Frontier

let the suckfest begin!!

(I kid–I like them both in their own, flawed ways)

Both excellent examples of flawed movies that had several amazingly great scenes.

Shatner got kinda ripped off in terms of special effects for ST V. Normally they would have used Industrial Light and Magic for the special effects, but because of the back luck of timing, IL&M was occupied doing Indianna Jones Last Crusade at that time.

Darth Vader being the result of a virgin (well, that’s her story) birth vs. Klingons kill God? Jar Jar Binks vs. Self-Help Vulcan? Tricky.

In the end, I think it’s STV:TFF FTW, for posing the quintessential theological question: “What does God need with a starship?” So wise, so wise. :slight_smile:

Wow this is fight between the dumb and the dumber.

With highpoints like a the Ben-Hur inspired podrace and Darth Maul, I think the edge goes to the phantom Menace. The lightsaber fight was pretty hard to beat (if you don’t count the ending where Maul suddenly misses Obi-Wan’s long distance leap which he defeated 3x previously from a shorter distance) The duration of the fight is definitely a highpoint in lightsabering coolness.

Sybok and Jar Jar cancel each other out.

And huge points off for Uhuru’s dancing…

Advantage: SW EP1 The Phantom Menace

That’s not an ironic statement, is it? OK, to each their own.

TPM looses huge points here, because they ret-conned Ben Kenobi’s desert wear into the uniform of the Jedi Order. Which means that NOW when Obi-Wan is wandering around the stormtrooper-infested spaceport, he’s doing it in uniform! (And he’s not hand-waving the whole time, either.)

Sybok and Jar Jar cancel each other out.

LMAO

I have to go with TPM. As hokey as some of it is the story makes sense to me. I can’t get around the whole retarded god thing in TFF.

I don’t see that “God” is much different from any petulant omnipotent the Enterprise crew encountered over the years–Charlie X, Trelane, Apollo, Gorgon, Sylvia, Parmen. variations on a theme. what’s different is the Sybok factor, and that might not have been so ridiculous if he weren’t vulcan.

So Jesus was a Martian? :rolleyes:

Of course not. He’s a zombie. :smiley:

well he was half and half. I hope Jesus knows we’re kidding. ah who am i kidding. we’re all going to hell. :D:D

Nope he was all zombie - he died and then rose from the dead. That makes him a zombie. And yes we are all going to hell but at least we’ll be in good company. :slight_smile:

At least we’ll finally be able to meet each other…and no airfare !!:smiley:
