Date: December 15th, 2017 8:03 PM Author: Irradiated Wild Sanctuary I wouldn't call Trek hard sci-fi, but it is more rich and interesting. Star Wars is really mythological fantasy, a variation on the Hero's Journey. Trek is like a genre unto itself. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34930616) |

Date: December 15th, 2017 8:07 PM Author: Brindle 180 House S2E2 of the Original StarTrek where Scotty hits on the female officer and asks her out for coffee is the most 180 scene in the whole series because Kirk and Spock then proceed to defend sexual harassment in the work place. I was watching it on BBC America not two hours ago. That shit would never in a zillion years get on TV today. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34930634) |

Spock is the GOAT scifi screen character, but that's not enough |

Date: December 15th, 2017 8:11 PM Author: Irradiated Wild Sanctuary TNG and Deep Space Nine were more interesting and engaging than anything Star Wars. The only thing Star Wars really has is The Empire Strikes Back, and that was a great movie almost by accident. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34930660) |

Date: December 15th, 2017 8:14 PM Author: Brindle 180 House No and it's aged horribly. The Caradasian episodes were the worst and the Klingon civil war arc was just laughably absurd. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34930690) |

Date: December 16th, 2017 10:15 AM Author: Talking grizzly haunted graveyard Remember how they gave the DS9 crew a space ship to zip around in because the show was so boring, just sitting there on a space station? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34934158) |
|
Date: December 16th, 2017 10:17 AM Author: Irradiated Wild Sanctuary Wasn't boring, show was well written and intriguing after the first couple of seasons. The space station concept was neat and I like the darker tone. Might have been the best Trek overall. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34934168) |

Date: December 16th, 2017 5:21 PM Author: Irradiated Wild Sanctuary I find Star Wars kinda boring because you always know the general arc is going to be "underdog hero faces conflict > hero has intense moment of doubt and strife > hero overcomes adversity and saves the day". In DS9 you had all kinds of economic and political intrigue combined with speculative concepts and good old pew pew laser battles.

TNG novels are all universally shitty. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3830529&forum_id=2#34934085) |
