Anathema Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Star Trek I was plain awfull. Felt asleep 3 times because of exessive showing of special effects ::).And yes, Episode I and II lack the darkness and gloominess of the trilogy.

DukeLeto Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Star Trek I was plain awfull. Felt asleep 3 times because of exessive showing of special effects ::).Special effects? Huh? Oh, you don't mean Str Trek The Motion picture, where they painted a piece of cardboard half blue, held it up to the camera, and called it an alien ship. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Yes that's the one ;D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose212 Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 1.VI2.IIII3.V4.II5.II thought that the Phantom Menace was a great book but when I saw the movie it almost made me vomit. Jar-Jar Binks was way over done in the movie and they left alot of stuff out that made key points in the book . Oh well , I'll still pay to see any of them any time .

Edric O Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 I don't care about special effects, it's the plot that matters. And as such, I like Star Trek WAAAY better than Star Wars.Leto, you might THINK the Dark Side doesn't get the cute girls, but how do you know what's under those Storm Trooper uniforms? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 I thought that were the clones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjCiD Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 yes in Eii they were clones werent they but in the old ones were they still clones or individual troopers then? :P ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_fox Posted August 18, 2002 Author Share Posted August 18, 2002 I think later the clones are slowly replaced by individuals (you know, ordinary people).You can't compare Star Wars to Star Trek because they're just too different. Star Trek's supposed to make you think and to be realistic, whereas Star Wars is just a very, very (VERY) good story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 hey Mara Jade was for the dark side for a long time and she was freaking hot.lol I must say too that episode one was great. It was better than episode II in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Star Trek I kicked ASS. I actually found that gigantic ship to be quite impressive. And i liked it that the Voyager satellite created by humans came back to destroy earth under the name V'ger :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord J Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 Yeah...The problem with Star Trek is you have to actually think... ::)lolAye, I saw the first three long before Episode 1 was even a twinkle in Anakin's aye. I always prefered Spaceballs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 hahah yeah spaceballs is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_fox Posted August 20, 2002 Author Share Posted August 20, 2002 I'm not necessarily saying Star Trek is worse than Star Wars (I like them both, but Star Wars a little more), but just compare Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) to Star Wars Episode IV (1977). ::) Star Wars was WAY, WAY, WAY ahead of its time.

ordos45 Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Sven, you forget, that the original Star Trek series was already running before either of the two movies you mention came out. Star Trek did indeed come before Star Wars. As for Star Trek Series....my favorite is DS9...big, beautiful, wonderful, explosions, and other parts of gigantic space battles in the Dominion War.

bob_fox Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 I know that. The original series came out in 1967 (or somewhere around that). I was just saying how much better Star Wars IV was than Star Trek I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordos45 Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Oh, have to agree with you there. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anathema Posted August 26, 2002 Share Posted August 26, 2002 Yodas fighting scene was one of the better parts of Episode II but overall the trilogy was much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted August 26, 2002 Share Posted August 26, 2002 i thought that yodas fight scene was awesome, but i also liked the duels and action of the second one. But I also overall liked the original trilogy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose212 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 Does anyone read any of the Star Wars novels? If you like the movies you would definetly love the books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord J Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 Hehe, sounds like a case for the Fan Fic Forums... "The Sith V. The Borg" -- To assimilate a lightsaber.Anyway, I have read one of the SW books, "Star Wars: Darth Maul Shadow Hunter", good book, I don't really care for SW much, but I enjoyed the writing and storyline.
