Star Wars Vs. Star Trek (with a twist)

Which franchise has stood the test of time best?

Before anyone starts, I love both!

I think Star Trek has definately stood the test of time since it came out way before Star Wars and has so many spin offs, but Star Wars has stood the test of time as well, especially since it changed the way space movies were made effects wise, etc. Even Star Trek was influenced by Star Wars, and vise versa. I voted Star Wars though because it appeals to a wider range of audience where Star Trek is more of a cult thing.

I think SW, the new ST weren't received wery well (but i lived the new ones with Archer) and many still consider ST more geeky. And SW has more fans then ST, but i also love both.

Star Wars. Star Trek has more or less been relegated to the realm of cultdom, while Star Wars is still mainstream. I'm sure people recognize "May the Force be with you." over "Live long and prosper." Darth Vader has entered pop culture legendary status, and I can't name a single Star Trek villain to save my life.

Star Wars, hands down.

I can't honestly put a fair vote in since I haven't given Star Trek a chance yet.

Yeah, I mean... bits of original Trek hold up well, but when you see the hippie episode...

Really, much as I am a universal geek, Star Wars has a more timeless quality to it.

Very well said.

Star Trek has always appeared very dated to me.

Its obviously a tie. Both have stood the test of time. All six Star Wars movie great. I don't believe what critics say. I have loved Star Trek since a I was a little kid. My fave Star Trek is Star Trek:TNG. I dod not care for the lost in space version of Star Trek even after Jeri Ryan came aboard. Enterprise was just atrocious.

Today when i watch star wars i am set beside myself less than i am when watching the original star trek series.

Star Wars.

Star Wars as well. I think it has a lot more staying power to it. We'll continue to see it be popular over the next decade or so.

considering trek has had to last, what, ten years longer than star wars, i think its doing pretty well... even with the relatively poor showings of voyagers later seasons and enterprise, there was still little hesitation in bankrolling a new trek movie...

star wars will always appeal to a bigger audience, but that doesnt necessarily mean it will last longer... star trek, imo will always have a devoted following...

i can see both lasting for a long, long time... but they'll both need work to keep up with the times...

i vote star wars

but star trek is probably more realistic or more resembles our life (not sure though)

Star wars is number one!jm 👆

Movie wise, Star Wars takes this one, I know episode 1 and 2 sucked, but episode 3 was pretty cool. Video game wise, Star Wars has had WAY better video games, Knights of the old republic is one of the greatest games I've ever played,.. T.V wise, Strek Trek would take them, even though new episodes ain't very good.

star trek. startrekstartrekstartrek
