How come Star Trek sucks so much compared to Star Wars?

1/7/2010 2:06:10 PM

Star Wars sucks.

1/7/2010 2:06:38 PM

What episode was it that that smart kid had sex with an ewok?

1/7/2010 2:07:41 PM

Which movie was it where the guy from Reading Rainbow turned into Darth Vader?

What the fuck happened with Spock. I thought he died in the Khan movie, but then he came back later

1/7/2010 2:12:40 PM

was insurrection worse than indiana jones 4

Following his funeral service, Spock's body was "buried" by being fired into space inside a torpedo casing. When Spock's coffin landed on the surface of the Genesis Planet, the radiation emanating from the planet caused his cells to regenerate. Meanwhile, Kirk and the rest of the Enterprise's senior staff disobeyed Starfleet orders so that they could retrieve Spock's body, and discovered that he had been reborn as a child (and was quickly aging to adulthood), but whose mind was a complete blank. On Vulcan, Spock's living body (now at the age it had been when he died) was reunited with his katra (the Vulcan soul), which Spock himself had placed in Dr. Leonard McCoy prior to his death.

Will future Star Trek movies be in the reboot canon or follow the previous movies?

1/7/2010 2:16:16 PM

1/7/2010 2:19:26 PM

Which would win?
Assume: S Captain Kirk type of command on each ship.

1 Two Enterprise class ships vs one Excelsior class ship
2 Klingon BOP vs a Romulan BOP
3 Five Enterprise ships vs one small Borg Cube (assume Borg command and not Kirk)

1/7/2010 2:20:51 PM

Jadzia Dax or Ezri Dax?

1/7/2010 2:23:03 PM

Why is it that all trekkies are so fucking weird?

Also, why do they all fail at life?

1/7/2010 2:24:18 PM

in TNG, can you explain the different ranks as represented by the small circles on their collars?

1/7/2010 2:27:00 PM

how come james earl jones didnt kill indiana jones when he had the chance in the emporer strikes back

Reboot canon.

1. There isn't an enterprise class. Are you referring to the Constitution class Enterprise? The Excelsior in either case.

2. The Klingon, but only due to the crew.

3. You mean Borg commanding the 5 Enterprise ships? Probably them, then. Remember how Picard knew the exact weak spot of the Cube in First Contact. The Cube wouldn't be able to destroy them all before they hit that spot.

Yeah, but even something like football. Why is knowing every episode of Star Trek so much worse than knowing the stats of every player in the NFL?

1/7/2010 2:47:20 PM

why didn't old spock just go to the goddamn starfleet outpost he obviously already knew about when he was stuck on delta vega and warn starfleet about nero

1/7/2010 2:48:52 PM

Why do 99% of all alien species just look like humans with shit glued to their face?

He knew he had to wait there to meet Kirk.

Canonical explanation? An ancient race that existed hundreds of thousands of years ago saw their species dying. They decided to seed different worlds across the galaxy with DNA, causing life to form on them. Earth was one of them. Clues to this origin were scattered around the galaxy, and after different species raced to piece it together, they all discovered that it was a message letting them know of their ancient origins. See TNG Episode "The Chase."

Real explanation? Make-up is expensive.

um why couldn't he have just radioed kirk from the outpost

or just

you know

beamed back to the fucking cave

or whatever

1/7/2010 2:57:14 PM

Honestly I'm just speculating

frankly I dont know how they transported through that weather

too much "interference"

Yeah, I've seen that one. It's just convenient that all aliens look like humans with shit added on. Just once I'd like to see one missing stuff or with freakishly disproportioned parts.

1/7/2010 3:13:04 PM

can you explain the klingon mutation? (more of lol question)

There are plenty.

Species 8472 for example.

They don't discuss it with outsiders.

1/7/2010 4:03:26 PM

^ Thats one example. 99% still look like humans with shit glued on.

1/7/2010 4:06:07 PM

Well, yes. A majority are. And obviously it's much easier to get an actor and slap something on their heads then create some 8 armed hydra in 3d Studio Max.

How does a heisenberg compensator work?

1/8/2010 3:04:13 PM

It sounds like you know all the answers to these already.

I can just c/p memory alpha for you:

The Heisenberg compensator (or subspace field compensator) is a component of the transporter system. The compensator works around the problems caused by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (hence the name), allowing the transporter sensors to compensate for their inability to determine both the position and momentum of the target particles to the same degree of accuracy. This ensures the matter stream remains coherent during transport, and no data is lost. A scan of the Heisenberg compensators, to make sure they perform within the specified parameters, can be performed by raising the transporter pad.

1/8/2010 3:12:04 PM

I know what it is. How does it work?

1/8/2010 3:13:20 PM

It accurately locates atoms that would otherwise be scattered all over the place.

1/8/2010 3:14:54 PM

If Time-Travel exists in the star trek universe (thanks enterprise!), then how can the destruction of vulcan remotely make sense?

1/8/2010 3:17:46 PM

^^ How does it do that?

1/8/2010 3:19:43 PM

because there are no whales on vulcan

1/8/2010 3:23:42 PM

I'm going to ask an impossible question ITT:

What does a vagina smell like?

1/8/2010 3:24:47 PM

Do you think Jonathan Archer and Q would have gotten along?

^ Depends on the level of maintenance.

1/8/2010 3:24:55 PM

So this is another 'Ask gronke questions ITT' thread?

1/8/2010 3:27:01 PM

could Q microwave a burrito so hot even he could not hold it

1/8/2010 3:27:40 PM

Is there a superior continuum known simply as "R"?

Does the Q-Continuum also make James Bond's gadgets?

That's an alternate reality. I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you asking how old Spock was alive?

Quote :

"^^ How does it do that?"

Ask Brannon Braga.

Heaven.

Quote :

Captains tend not to like Q.

Quote :

"So this is another 'Ask gronke questions ITT' thread?"

No unless no one else steps up.

Quote :

"could Q microwave a burrito so hot even he could not hold it"

No, because he isn't corporeal. Things such as "heat" don't affect him.

Quote :

"Is there a superior continuum known simply as "R"?"

No.
