you just typed an 22 line paragraph to try to convince me that wars is better then trek? I'd much rather see it on screen then on some website. The day I see a Trek ship fighting a Wars ship in a movie and the Wars ship is actually winning (a joke) I will believe it, but untell that day. I hear blah blah blah lasers.. blah blah blah she'll make .5 past light speed blah blah blah I made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsects blah blah blah. I'm not saying this to be closed minded, I am saying because it has it's faults just like Trek does. Trek has a lot more for the main reason that it's been in continuious production. Wars had a 20 year pause or so.

Now I will admit the light sabers are a cool weapon to have (give one of these to Tasha Yar) and I do think that one Jedi could kick the shit out of whole platton of Trek Security officers. And the empire could make 9-11 look a lot more terrifing then it actually was (so can the Borg [see "New Borg City"]. And Darth Vader's voice is so cool!!! Picard has the second coolest voice in sci-fi. We all also know the FTL travel is impossible so let's not even argue over who is faster.

Although I don't understand one thing about the Falcon.. the commander of the Star Destroy says that it's too small to have a cloaking device but a romulan shuttle that is a quarter of the size of the falcon has one??? can someone explain that to me?

Not to say that I'm "turning" (I used a Wars term) to Wars this is just how I precieve it by watching it. So in my opinion weather you Warzies like it or not.. Wars ships are a lot less powerful then you make them out to be and Mariana Spirits is a lot cutier then Princess Lehia however Padme Amadala has the age thing going for her :) yum yum
