I think "thems' fightin' words" in some parts of the Geek Galaxy

I know a young couple that is very nearly obsessed with Star Wars. For her anniversary, the husband got a huge scale model of the Millennial Falcon. It beeps, whirrs, squeals, and even has Chewbacca noises. She said they play with their Star Wars figurines together...

Star Wars, Star Trek...They're still all the same to me. All I know is Captain Kirk is a lot cooler than Han Solo.

Fixed another one. You're batting a thousand today. ;)

Oh, brother.

I know I'm going to upset some some trekkies out there, but Kirk looks like Erkle next to Han Solo. And if you really want to start tallying cool points, one word... Lando.

I thought it was some cool editing. My kid's jaw just about hit the floor, especially after all the times he's told us that Star Wars is only pretend, not real.
 
Many thanks for the corrections - I really don't know that much about either one other than they're from outer space and "A Real Long Time Ago." (to quote the yellow words in the introductions to all the films)

And yeah, I was probably off about the Han Solo remark - but you have to admit, the Star Trek Space Ship was cooler than the Death Star. ;)
 
I have avoided clicking on this thread since it was posted...
but I was pleasantly surprised

well, done, not "in your face"

and yeah, trekkie does not equal star wars geek
you can be either or both, but they are not equal

Woof, Woof - Dawg

You ever heard these expressions:

- Stop digging.

- Quit while you are ahead.

:D
 
Invading the home of Star Fleet, how dare they.

OMG, Scotty we need you to beam these tribbles into the death star.
 
^^ See there? I knew there were similarities: Tribbles are like little miniature Ewoks. :D
 
I've always heard that SF is an odd place, and I guess this confirms it. The way everyone was indifferent to their presence just goes to show that nothing can phase the people of that city.

Well, the city and state is protected by the governator.

Starship, the Enterprise is a starship not a spaceship.

One Borg Sphere could take out 3 death stars. ;)
