If i was to compile reasons why star trek is better than star wars the list would be endless, but let's just start with the remakes/prequels they have indie actors like Zachary Quinto and Anton Yelchin in the cast, instead of um Hayden Christensen who is basically the male Zooey Deschanel when it comes to acting. Oh and they have JJ Abrahams & the lost writers creating them and not George damn Lucas. Hopefully they'll write in a Shatner role in the 2012 sequel even though he died in generations.
