The metal bikini is awesome, but nothing compares to Orion Slave Girls.

That working together thing, Klingons and Romulans anyone. That is why I enjoy the original star trek so much over some of the others. The klingons were the bad guys and Kirk would do what was necessary to defeat their evil actions. The Next Generation had 10 really good episodes, the best would have to be "Yesterdays Enterprise" followed closely by "Oh, what a wonderful Q."

What was the original topic again???

That Star Wars I {sorry IV) was the best and only SW film.

Then we got into the different narrative goals between Star Wars and Star Trek.

Then we got into the really important stuff ... :angel:

Oh dear lord, Bill, there needs to be an antagonist for the narrative in order to put forward the message of unity that the show was aiming for. In other words, there needed to be something for the diverse group to work together to overcome, and for most of the original series, that was the Klingons. But even that wasn't against the message, as the unity shown was represented by the Federation (The United Federation of Planets); it was a group of different cultures and societies coming together under a single banner. The antagonists were typically (until some of the later movies and series) from outside of the Federation, so to a degree they were exempt from the "togetherness" ideal.

But, more importantly, Cryo, any news on that Leia's details?

Oddly, I like both Star Wars and Star Trek...neithe one really wins in my book.

Star Wars should apoligize for Jar jar and a whinie Aniken.

and Star Trek should apoligize for just about every other movie.
