Star Wars Vs. Star Trek debates have been going on since both universes appeared. You don't have to look very far to know which universe I prefer. This is simply pointless, both fan sides(Star Wars & Star Trek) have their own preferences and disliles in the universe they prefer. I would love to fly with an A-wing, but I simply can't stand the Ewoks. I cannot say anything about Star Trek, I saw one or two episodes of the TV series, so all I could say is that that universe is a bit odd. The FS universe appeared strange and alien for the first sight, I simply had to get used to it. Even if I saw more about Star Trek, I would still prefer Star Wars since I know it far better and I have been grown up by that universe and the games/books based on it. The time I spent with SW confirms and immobilizes my addiction.
I don't find comparing and dissecting two different universes a good idea. No offence, really, but a debate like that is heavily flammable at HLP. It is just like opening a thread about 'Pro-choice vs. Pro-life'. I would predict a two-day lifetime for such thread.

This thread reminds me of a comment someone said not too long ago, I think it was on another forum but it may been on HLP.

To answer the question of who would survive, in Star Trek vs Star Wars, or in Babylon 5 vs Star Trek, or whoever vs whoever.

The answer is they both would, because the two would never, ever meet. So there's no point arguing about it.

Yup, that's the one!

That's why they are called 'hypothetical' debates. If you can't see the point don't be such an ass and just leave.

At least thats what I would say if someone came to me with such a dumbass comment during a debate. It's like saying "Freespace isn't real so why should you care who wins the war?"

It's also why they're stupid.  They don't exist within the same 'universe'. so even the numbers for comparison have different meanings.  Unless you create a 3rd, neutral, universe for comparison, it's completely arbitrary & pointless

EDIT; I mean, by all means aregue away. Just don;t ever expect to 'prove' yourself right to anyone other than yourself.

Well, some people find it fun to jerk off to naked pictures of Ivanova and Janeway (). Thats about as unproductive as debating this.

But I think it's fun. So you better back off before I'm gonna chop off your dick and take away your jerking privelidges.

Helps keep Tissue manufacturers in business, tho.

Well, if you want to be hypothetical about it, here's my argument, adapted in part from a statement made by JMS (B5-creator).

If Star Trek and Star Wars were to meet, their weapons would fire at the strength of plot, and their hulls would resist weapons fire with the durability of plot. And ultimately, whoever had the most plot power would win the day, which would probably be the neither of them as any cross-over movie/TV series would probably result in a tie or a peaceful resolution so as to give SW+ST fans a lot of eye candy, but to not piss either of them off.
