Question Which UNIVERSE would win - Star Wars or Star Trek?

Sign in to disble this ad
NO no nononono, NOT which is "cooler" or "better".

Which universe would conquer the other if they had to wage war?

Try to keep the jokes to a minimum, too, and (as weird as it sounds) let's make this "scientific and fact based".

In fact, maybe someone would want to make a SW/ST joke thread in addition. That would be cool!

Well, the Death Star could take out a planet, so it would have no problem with a Borg Cube. That, and the Force trumps just about anything.

Star Wars, hands down.

You can't mess with Jedi, so I'd give it to Star Wars. I'd love to see Kirk in a fist fight with Han Solo. Or Worf versus Chewbacca. You'll have to excuse me if my nerd is showing.

C3-P0 vs Wesley Crusher???

Scotty would rig up some anti-matter blast that would take out half the Galaxy, empire and all.

Star Trek.

Lord of the Rings comes out of nowhere to destroy them all behind the bow of Legalos and the sword of Aragorn.

Thinking about it, I think Spock and Data and their superior logic would give Star Trek the edge in war strategy.

Continuously shouting



won't save anyone, so I think the Star Trek universe will win if they keep the Jedi knights away for long enough.

Star Trek. Kirk would smooth talk Vader while Spock would be taking out the Death Star; Sisko would browbeat the Jedis while Quark sold off the Empire to the highest bidder; Picard would play his flute and depress the Senate, while Worf would beatdown Jar-Jar Stinks; The Light Beings would send Solo to Dodge City to get shot, while semi-nude green women would dance and hypnotize the Clones. Just as the Star Trek guys are winning, Sheridan and the Mimbari would appear, show everyone what a real Space-Opera should look like and they all will be cancelled by CBS.

You guys forget the Borg. One cube could take out the Death Star like it was NUTHIN!

Star Trek has superior technology.

Star Trek technology could take out planets as well let's not forget.

The real question is whether the evil Star Trek universe would win against the "normal" one.


Masters of the universe.

I don't care if I'm hijacking. BSG rules. Pick which bikini is better. Resistance is futile.
