Tell me when the Star Trek TNG T.V. series reboot happens that they've been talking about, then I'll get excited.

I've got to be the only geek out there that doesn't go ga-ga over Star Wars.

Now you're talking! I used to love Star Wars as a kid. But now I'm more concerned over who the better captain in Star Trek was (answer: Picard).

Hell, I can't put a cup of tea in the microwave without thinking "tea... earl grey... hot"

Lame  :P You two should go make your own Trekkie thread  :o

Heck, I can't put a bowl of cereal in the microwave without thinking "cereal, it's gonna melt.   Come in Luke!"

I'm interested to see how Ep 7 turns out. But I'm iffy about it turning into another Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull...

I've always been more of a Star Wars fan. But lately I've been rewatching the original Star Trek show and movies and really enjoying it. You can enjoy both. :P

Great choice :)  My favorites are from favorite to least favorite:

1.  Episode V: Empire Strikes Back
2.  Episode III:  Revenge of the Sith
3.  Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
4.  Episode IV: New Hope
5. Episode I: Phantom Menace
6. Episode 2: Clone Wars

Yea clone wars was sort of a filler; however, I can't say that it is terrible.  There were some great elements in it including the build up Anakin and Amedola. 

Do you read any of the books as well?

No, I'm not. The cereal is gonna melt made no sense and made me chuckle. That's why it was awesome.

My favorite Star Wars was A New Hope. It's just classic. And I mean classic in the pacing and structure as well. It's fantastic! But I love how the trilogy creates it's own three act structure. The first film is the rise. The second film is the huge downfall. And the third is victory. Great stuff.

Oh okay  8)  Well, I'm glad i made the internet for the day and made you chuckle.  It's hard to get sin2beta to laugh or show some humor, I did something right!  ;)

Me and my wife began watching a new hope tonight but unfortunately 20 minutes into it, she fell asleep.  She worked hard today.  We are going to finish it tomorrow, and then episode V next week  :D

All these star trek comments are making me want to watch star trek.  A couple of years ago, I thought about star trek, and then I realized there was so many that I was confused at were to start.  I began watching one and got lost 20 minutes in and stopped.  Never picked it up after wards.  Over time, I some how developed some internal hate for Star Trek as I realized there is only one galaxy which is the one far, far away  ;)  One day, maybe I should crack up the star trek urge again and watch one.  Any one ever watched the series "Babolon 5"?  Would you recommend it?

I haven't seen it since it was a new show on T.V. (which was some years ago, now). But I remember being very slow moving and boring, with way too much talking and very little action.

I do remember liking the short-lived spin-off series, Crusader or Crusade or something like that. It was about a starship (rather than a space-station like Babylon 5) and was a bit more action-focused.
