Not that it matters, NZT Is still the better choice.

There is no speculation.
NZT is the better choice if you are already smart. It works best that way. Otherwise, you would just be a bright loser (like so many we seen on the show and movie).

I would go with NZT just to usher us into the age of star trek.

NZT is to help humanity and Next is to help oneself.

All you have is speculation. but I now understand why you didn't pick NZT.

False.
I actually did pick NZT. Did you read my post?

Yet another lie and here is the proof.

With the highlander's power you can become a genius if you kill one. But who wants to kill? You can live for a long time (if that's your desire). No one will know that cutting your head off kills you (unless you tell them).

I would say
1. Next
2. NZT
3. Jumper
4. Highlander

With NZT ability you can do a little Next ability (as Morra showed at the end of the movie) and
With the Next ability you can become smart (learn fast) and make No mistakes

That's was before. I changed my mind when I thought about star trek.

More like, You changed your mind because multiple people spent pages pointing out why Next wasn't a good choice.

If it wasn't for star trek I'm going with Next.

Because you don't like picking the superior ability?

Imo, next would be the superior ability, outside achieving Star Trek. It would give me an unlimited amount of chances to get something right. I can get rich FASTER. Avoid being shot. Be the best UFC fighter, hit a home run in every at bat (I'm a baseball player) that I don't get walked, hit every basketball shot, steal the ball almost every time, be the best boxer in history instantly, win poker bracelets, etc.

I love sports more than anything. So to be the best at many sports would be a dream come true. But the Star Trek becoming a reality and us humans becoming destined to become greater than the Q is my biggest dream.

Note: Not every NZT user can do what Morra did. It all depends on several factors.

Do you also believe the Earth is flat?

Not perfectly. Only approximately within a vicinity. But overall it's not flat (assuming it exists at all).

The show makes it clear that even bargain basement dummies on NZT can do amazing things. Piper Baird made a perfect shot over a mile away despite not being a trained sniper. A regular worker remembered a man's face from touch alone and reconstructed his entire skull out of clay after touching his face for maybe a few seconds in the dark. A SWAT officer climbed multiple stories up the side of a building on a whim. Another of those SWAT officers could have taken down the CJC branch of the FBI if he'd actually been out to kill anyone. And we see Brian pull off amazing feats every single episode.

h1a8 doesn't want to admit that he made a poor choice.

If we're not actually living in the world of these movies then I would choose the immortality. I think it would be awesome to have the chance to live forever, and if I truly got bored of it..well I could just decapitate myself.

As for losing loved ones..everybody does that, it is a part of life. Some people have to go on living for decades after having lost a loved one.

I forget if the highlanders can have children, but I don't ever want children so that wouldn't be much of an issue. But if I'm living in the Highlander universe this becomes a lot less appealing due to the whole "every now and then a maniac tries to murder you". You'd be constantly paranoid. Also eventually the whole "there can only be one" thing comes to pass and if you somehow manage to win..you lose your immortality. So that would be a deal breaker for me.

Just like with the Jumper powers..yeah it gives you freedom, but it's not worth it if one day you get Samuel L Jackson'ed to death.

I still think Next abilities are superior. Again I can hit every basketball shot made and always hit a home run. That alone trumps ANYTHING NZT can do.

I chose NZT in the end because I want star trek to become a reality. We must become greater than the Q.

Not every user can do what Morra did. It's not guaranteed.

You can hit every shot with NZT by judging angles, probability, etc... all in the time it takes to release the ball. You can see the baseball in slow motion, and know just where to swing to crack the bat and make it a homer.

And NZT has made every person who used it a superhuman level genius when they are determined.

No you can't. It takes more than judging angles but hand eye coordination. You will definitely hit more shots but NOT ALL OF THEM.

There were scenes Brian was getting hit in fights. As a boxer or fighter, I would never get hit with the Next power.

Keep making excuses to justify picking a inferior ability.
