Star Trek?

[Lord Darcey]

I'm geeky Trekkie. Is anyone else?

[crjr9833]

Hmmm, Star Trek.......Is that considered to be fantasy??? I don't care much for that, but I do like Star Wars.

[Lord Darcey]

Hmm, I don't suppose. But there wasn't anywhere else to put it, and some parts are rather fantastic.

[In a Stable]

I guess I'm new to everything around here. I'm new to this forum, and I'm new to the Star Trek thing. But yeah, I consider myself a Trekkie-in-Training.
~Live Long and Prosper~

[Lord Darcey]

Yay! Trekkie! Favourite series?

I just joined this forum today, so I'm new too.

[In a Stable]

I love the original Star Trek (TOS) the best. But I'm learning to like Star Trek: Enterprise. Kirk and Spock are still my favorites though.

[Lord Darcey]

I don't really like Enterprise too much. It's getting better, but *shrug*. TOS is good, yep. 'Tis fun. But my favourite's TNG. It has a lot of philosophy and such in it.

[Between_the_Worlds]

I think my favorite would be TOS, then TNG, and then DS9. I don't really like Voyager and I haven't yet seen Enterprise. I would consider myself a Trekkie! ;) Star Trek was in fact, my first sci-fi passion, then came Star Wars, and that somehow led to LotR. Narnia was my very first passion though.

[Dead Rain]

i definately would not consider myself a a trekkie. but i do like star trek....to a degree.

In a Stable-- i jsut noticed your sig. that's so awsome!i think i'll adopt it to myself.haha

[jennyjenjen56]

I'am not a star trek fan, I've never been able to get into it. A few of my friends could be considered trekkies and so ,even as a big star wars fan, I have nothing against trekkies! ;) :)

[Dead Rain]

haha. yeah. i get it. that's fine. good.

[Warrior-Poet51088]

Not much of a STAR TREK fan, but my favorite is TNG(Picard--you can't go wrong with a name like Jean-Luc!) and second would be Voyager, but only because it was the one I saw most on the telly when I was little.
Hehehe. Go to www.starwarsspoofs.com and move your pointer over the upper-left corner(in space) and click on the Enterprise to see what would happen if Luke ever met up with Kirk.

[GrayCloak]

...I'm pretty sure that would send Luke over to the dark side....

P.S. Kirk rules Picard drules! ;)

[Prince Corin]

I like Star Trek and Star Wars. Both cool.

[Dead Rain]

which do you like better, Prince Corin?

[Prince Corin]

Well, they're different. Star Wars is cool because of all the "use the Force" and lightsabers etc. Star Trek is cool because it's searching the universe and finding aliens and shooting klingons and stuff. But I think I like them equally. Like I said before, they're both cool. :)

[lsipher]

Some of those star wars spoofs were pretty good, Aragorn. Thanks!

Who else here is going to try to get tickets to the first showing in their area, of the next Star Wars? In full costume? :D

I'm a trekkie by birth, it was a family thing. I grew up watching it, but haven't really followed it for the last five or six years. We were obviously into Star Wars too, but my uncle was/is the one obsessed with such things. :)

[Daughter of Eve]

Ooh! I'm a Trekkie! (and yes, I'll get to that religious debate, I've been busy) I'm a Trekkie!!!!!!!! Born a Trekkie, raised a Trekkie, and I'll die a Trekkie.

My favourite is, naturally, TOS. Then Voyager, and TNG. Haven't seen much of Enterprise, I wasn't impressed with it. I am in the process of delving deeper into DS9.

[Warrior-Poet51088]

Who else here is going to try to get tickets to the first showing in their area, of the next Star Wars? In full costume? :D

My friends from youth group and I are planning on going to the midnight showing of ep3 in full Jedi knight costume, complete with lightsabers, hairdos, and, maybe, some facial art(??). We wanna act like total SW geeks, always referring to each other as "master," et cetera. It'll be ace!

[lsipher]

Ha, Aragorn, that's prefect!!!

Most of the "kids", including some very big ones :) , at church, that includes me, are going to see it together. In full costume, of course. We were planning to go to the first showing, then walk out of the theartre saying things like...

" I can't believe it...Obi won is actually Luke's FATHER, not Vader!!!"
or
" Ewww, are you telling me that Leia and Han Solo are cousins, I think I'm gonna be sick!"
or
" What were they thinking, putting in that scene between Vader and the Emperor. It's still creeping me out!!"
or
" Why was Yoda wearing Leia's titanium bikini from The Emporer Stikes back? That is just wrong on so many levels!!"

jk jk jk jk jk......well, maybe?

I sure hope you're laughing.

- Lou

[GrayCloak]

Lou, you forgot that we're going to break out in lightsabor fights while stading in line, and tell the ticket taker "You don't need to see my identification..."

[Warrior-Poet51088]

*does Jedi mind-trick hand-wave*
HEHEHEHEHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRILLIANT!!!!!!
Go to www.starwars.com there's a link on the main page to a forum where some ppl have posted funny titles for ep3. I haven't posted any, but most of 'em are pretty good.

[lsipher]

Lou, you forgot that we're going to break out in lightsabor fights while stading in line, and tell the ticket taker "You don't need to see my identification..."

You're right, I forgot all about that! This is gonna be so much fun!!!!

- Lou

[Smog]

I thought this was about star trek? (I'll admit I have been begging my dad to let me go to the twelve showing!) going back... You can't compare the orginal star trek to start wars!

[Smog]

Oh ya just a note Kirk is the best captain in star trek! (Then again hes the only one who kills things! every other captain just says "Hail them!".. "Put up shields" They never use lethal force!) KIRK ROOOCKS!!!!!!

[Smog]

Just a quick note: That is not the REAL Smog, that is my little brother who has managed to log on with my name.

[lsipher]

Better change your password.

And...sorry Smog's 'lil brother, but you may have to try something a little more drastic than begging, to get to come...I've found bribery + good behavoir + extra chores + paying your own way, works well...

- Lou

[TrueCrusader]

you started a star tek forum and didn't get me? also I know smogs lil bro And hes gonna use guilt of his birthday to get to go to the twelve aclock showing! guilt is a very good tool! also kirk IS the best captain.

[Daughter of Eve]

Kirk is the best captain, hands down.

Picard is awesome though, and so is Janeway. I do NOT like Sisko. As for Enterprise, I watched a few episodes, and pronounced it stupid. I'm trying to like DS9....

Kirk, Spock, Bones, and Scotty are like the BEST chars. from TOS.

[Lord Darcey]

Ooh. *pokes this board* I almost forgot about this place, but I'm totally back. Yeah. And procrastinating from studying for midterms, but I do that kind of thing a lot. *sigh*

TNG is the best series. Captain Picard comes the closest to being reasonable and logical, although he's done some stupid things. I like Data. And Guinan. Troi annoys me, but maybe only because my mom is a psychologist and so psychologists/counselors/whatever associate in my mind with being annoying. I wouldn't want someone reading my emotions all the time, though. >.<

Oh, and Kahn is HOT.

[In a Stable]

Kirk is the best captain, hands down.

Yes, I knew there were some reasonable people left in this world! There is still hope! :D

[Daughter of Eve]

There is always hope. It will not forsake this land as long as TOS fans shall walk the earth. :D

[mauly]

i'm not a trekkie but i do luv their movies. :) and the only tv series i watched regulary was ST: Next Generation.

Picard OWNED Kirk :p

when's the next ST movie?

[Twilightdryadhobbit]

Hey, I'm a trekkie too! Here is my verdict on the Captains:

1. Kirk: The funniest, gutsiest, and most creative captain. He can talk or bluster his way out of anything. ANYTHING. As long as Scotty and Spock are there to handle the technical end of things.
Downside: If the villians brought out a reasonably attractive girl for Kirk in the last five seconds before blowing up the Enterprise, the ship would be doomed. And he gets testy with the crew for no reason sometimes.

2. Picard: The reasonable, occasionally gutsy, and logical captain.
Downsides: Too much talk, not enough action. He thinks he can get out of any situation with some rather cliched monolouge. And he let's Wesley get away with far too much.

3. Spock: The best of both worlds. The most logical captain, encouraging to the crew, and he plays poker with the best of them. He can talk his way out of almost any problem, if he thinks it's the logical thing to do, he reads humans like a book, pretty women do not distract him, and his monolouge's use short, easy words that any evil doer can understand.
Downside: This Galaxy renowned wonder does not desire the Captaincy. I still suspect that it's only a feeble excuse he makes up so he can have more time to be the glue that holds the federation together.

I don't know any of the other Captains, original and Next Gen are the only ones I've watched. What are you guys opinions on whose the best, and why?

[Between_the_Worlds]

I've only watched all the films and just several of the episodes from the original, TNG and DS9. Here's a desktop/wallpaper I did of the Borg...if any of ya'll are interested.

Hey, don't forget the annoying way in which he straightens his uniform virtually every single time he stands up or goes to move somewhwere.

Even so, he's still my fave Captain!

[EveningStar]

Believe it or not I did a study for a screenplay for The Original Series. There are some serious people out there who spend bundles on making better than average fan films. One particular outfit impressed me so I wrote this:

http://royalmagi.org/endymion.html

It is not completed. Frankly I don't have the time to turn it into a screenplay myself. It's basically in story form at this point. Still I think you'll see my familiarity with the original series, one that sprang from having been a fan of it when it was actually being filmed... ;)

Favorite series *so far*

1. Voyager
2. The Next Generation

fav. characters:

The Doctor *Voyager*
Tom Paris *Voyager*
Harry Kim *Voyager*
Kathryn Janeway *Voyager*
Chakotay *Voyager*

as you've guessed, Voyager is the one I love the best. :D

[KathrynJanewayChakotay]

I have been a star trek fan about all my life Kirk is very gutsy and smart and he is very much of a wominzer whoever said that about kirk putting a pretty girl in front of him everyhong goes out the window is very true Kathryn janeway kind strong feisty very motherly Very much a fighter but gentle and kind but don't get on her bad side eek Gentle very smart and very much a scientist Captain Jean luc logical thinking mans captain he is annoyong with that tunic thing but his lines have become classic Engage Make it so I like all of the star treks the ones i likie the most though are Voyager Next Gen original series. Ds9 and enterprise i was not to crazy about

[Sir Godfrey]

My favorite is Voyager because I fallowed it from beginning to end when I was young (I even kept note of all the episode titles). My favorite captains are Janway, Picard, and Kirk. My favorite character on Voyager is Seven of Nine (I had crush on here once). I love Next Generation and The Original Series. I didn't care much for DS9 or Enterprise.

[Aravis Kenobi]

SoN gets on my nerves; she was hilarious today though. And the episode, "Body and Soul" is a great one of hers; those are the only two I've liked so far that center on SoN.

[Sir Godfrey]

I think Seven of Nine is an intresting character, afterall she's a reclaimed drone from the Borg. I think It's intresting how she has to to work on fitting in with the rest of the Voyager crew. It's fun watching her develop into a more capable and more understanding human being.

[Aravis Kenobi]

true...but she still grates on my nerves; and the tight outfit gets to me; I hate stuff that fits that tightly.

[Sir Godfrey]

Well you have you're opinion. I personally like the entire crew of Voyager.

[Aravis Kenobi]

did you see today's Voyager episode about Seven? I loved Chakotay's line,

"Take the Borg out of the collective..." too bad he didn't finish it, but he probably would've said, "but you can't take the collective out of the Borg" lol.

Tom, Harry, and CHakotay are my favorite male members; mainly because Tom is so sarcastic and a lot like Han Solo.

I think Tom Paris is my favorite because he's the jump to it kind of guy (rash and brash) and as you said the most sarcastic. I then would say that I like Harry Kim and Chakotay.

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

I haven't seen any episode of Star Trek. I know something about it because of Mary :D But no, I am not a trekkie and will never be.

[EveningStar]

It is sad to see so many of the classic Trek series gone.

RIP James Doohan, DeForest Kelly, Majel Barret Roddenberry. I saw an episode the other day where Kirk was being checked out in sick bay by Bones and Nurse Chapel. I got a sinking feeling when I realized that only one of those three people in the room was still with us. Maybe Scotty now has a staff of real miracle workers, and the laws of physics be hanged.

[DaydreamBeliever]

I like the old Star Trek.:D
"The City On the Edge of Forever" is awesome.:cool: :p

I was upset when I heard Mrs. Roddenberry passed away on my b-day. :( But I was glad to see that she had a role in the newest film, Star trek XI. The starfleet computer voice won't be the same without her.

[inkspot]

Did anyone see the crossover episode on Star Trek Deep Space Nine where Sisko and Dax went back to "The Trouble with Tribbles" episode of TOS? It was so funny, and really, just perfect. I got it on DVD and the original episode, and watched them together. Sweet.

[Aravis Kenobi]

Sadly, the only time they show DS9 in my area is about 1 a.m. so I've never watched the show. I would like to see that episode though. :D
