Is Better Than “Star Trek”
Is Better Than “Star Trek”
- Much more satisfying to see Ewoks die than to see Tribbles die.
- Shatner had great hair, but he was no Chewbacca.
- Scotty would look downright nauseating in a metal bikini.
- Even the most fearsome Star Trek character is no match for a 3-foot-tall, 900-year-old, green Jedi wielding a WOODEN WALKING STICK.
- Wearing red isn’t a death sentence.
- Khan likely had to pay for sex; Lando, on the other hand, is a space-panty magnet.
- Spock and McCoy never went for the iconic "I love you / I know" moment.
- "Star Wars": Hot, steamy, sexy Harrison Ford. "Star Trek": Leonard Nimoy.
- Most of us would take a butt-mouthed alien and the Cantina band over Whoopi-Goldberg-in-a-mumu any day.
- There’s no "stun" setting on a freakin’ light saber.
- Chewbacca’s dialog is crisp and eloquent compared to Kirk’s.
- R2-D2 can vacuum up all the tribbles and still fit in your closet.
- Does Mace Windu look like a bitch?!?
- The "Star Wars" franchise is so valuable, they’ve entrusted it to J.J. Abrams, which is a powerful show of faith in — wait, what? Oh. Never mind…
And the Number 1 Reason “Star Wars” Is Better Than “Star Trek”…
- Finding out that Leia was his sister wouldn’t have stopped Kirk from hitting on her.
