Star Trek or Star Wars?
Yes, please.
Star Trek or Star Wars?
That new ST movie looks pretty kick ass.
The new SW movie I'm reserving opinion for the time being.

You know.........Going backwards, despite the 3 absolutely HORRIBLE star wars movies since the originals, I would have said that Star wars is Cooler than Star trek.
Going forward? Guess what. Despite only having seen 1/2 the movies, I am an effing Trekky. Star Trek will be SO much more bad ass than anything the star wars tragedy can squeeze out of it's bleeding rectum.....(yes, I would probably kill GL on sight) that I will see anything Star Trek in the theatre, anything star wars will be later, if it gets INCREDIBLE reviews.

The only thing terrible were the 3 STAR WARS movies that came after 1990.
No, I was acknowledging that despite the fact that the first 3 star wars movies "outcool" everything else, Star Trek is 50 and 0 since Return of the Jedi.
NOTHING Star Trek has sucked. Even all of the spin off shows are good, if not my cup of tea.
It was Star Wars' to lose, and like everything Star Wars does, they did it in EPIC fashion. Could not have hated it more. Walked out of theaters, returned videos half watched, and finally boycotted the third one ENTIRELY.
I love that suit! I think the worst part is what that fat slob George Lucas did to the man inside the suit. A pathetic, sobbing teenager that can't stop whining. I surprised there wasn't a scene where anakin writes bad poetry while he doodles hearts around his girlfriends photos. I'm not letting the horrendous acting off the hook, but George Lucas needs to choke on a wookies d@%k. End tirade.
On a lighter note, is the last Star Trek movie worth picking up on dvd? I haven't watched any Star Trek in years.

I didn't mind the suit in 1977, or even the 1980s for that matter. It just didn't fit the second set of films.
I mean, there were robots, cyborgs, and all kind of cool-looking high-tech things running around during the whole second set of movies. The costume just looked really dated. I mean the guy can't even turn his head. And what's with the cape? Nobody else is wearing a cape. They could have turned him into an awesome cyborg-looking thing. I understand it would have been heresy, but it would have worked better for me.
Just my opinion. Take it for what it's worth.
I highly recommend the Star Trek movie.
Worth it! It was directed by J.J. Abrams (Lost)
Kind of went a little heavy on the lens flashes, but awesome effects, descent story and good acting (who doesn't want to see Simon Peggy as 'Scottie'?)

I don't agree with this. Just for continuity he has to wear his bad ass Vader outfit. The only way I could see him wearing something else is if he wore a new cyborg outfit at the end of the second movie and later finished his outfit. It would have been better that way so we could have more Vader and less anakin, but I think it would have been naked 3po with a helmet knowing Lucas. I was born in 86 and I don't think it is an outdated look.
As for capes, there's Dookoo, Grievous, Lando... if you take the hoods off then many force users have a cape. Capes are good for making you look larger, more intimidating. Vader's whole thing is big, unyielding, powerful.

Hah, me too. Still haven't watched #3.
It was on tv once and I accidentally flipped through. Some sub par CGI of a giant lizard....Stoooopid.
Oh, that was a lizard? I thought it was a 4 armed robot with emphysema.
Oh well. The RedLetterMedia reviews of the prequal trilogy made for better viewing anyway.

Luke is a whiney B. Like his father before him.
Yep. That was all I got out of Ep 1-6. The entire time. Whine whine whine. The entire idea is epic. The light sabers are epic. The Force and Jedi are epic. The whining is epic.
And BTW, AT-AT's make no logical sense in the entire series. Why have a huge behemoth slow moving transport vehicle when you can use a speeder?
And that end scene with Darth in the suit, breaking free of the table like Frankenstein while screaming NOOO! That was a disaster.
The originals seem more campy than episodes 1-3 when you're looking at the quality of filming, or at least A New Hope was after watching the first three episodes. But at least we can all agree on one thing. Luke is a whiney B. Like his father before him.

What????
Charlie's Angels Full Throttle.
Psssh. Little Miss Sunshine. Talk about action packed.
Oooh! How'd I miss that. The talent part of the Pageant????Speechless.
So!
Anyone seen BSG?
I watched it to the part that they were prisoners on some planet. It was great before that, but then I got extremely bored.
A common lament.
Venture on a little further, there were only 4 or so "planet" episodes. The episode where they (*SPOILER BELOW*) is regarded by most as the BEST episode in the series and not only justifies, but is even made better by the slower planet episodes.
* vacate the sh!tty little planet*
I guess this is the problem I have with the originals. Just imagine this guy going up against Anakin from the first three episodes. Luke is supposed to be the chosen one, but Anakin was so badass. Well, the acting was terrible, but still the fight sequences were awesome. (Sorry, it's a mobile site, I basically only browse on my phone these days)
