Star Wars vs Star Trek

Um, TW Scott, are you going to address my post? Why did you skip to this one?

Scott, I'll be simple JUST for you:

Nobody was surprised because, SURPRISE! It just happened!

Instead of being all shocked and confused, they chose to ACT and do something about it.

If a US Solider was "surprised" and "shocked" when something happened that shouldnt' happen, we'd have a LOT more dead soldiers...

Scott, let me do some math for you:

Assuming ONLY FIVE major continuity mistakes in Star Wars:

5 mistakes divided by 6 movies is about .89 mistakes per movie.

Now, Star trek (and we'll use your episodes just to make you happy)

assume 250 major mistakes in continuity over 726 + 10 episodes.
That is about .3396 mistakes per episode.

So, yeah. You see what I'm saying? Trek has a MUCH larger margin of error thanks to having SO much screentime!

 

No, he won't, because he cannot fight it without resorting to name calling and idiotic remarks about how his mother could beat your mother.

 

Obviously the CGI guy messing up.

It is only thing to exaggerate the size of the ship. Quite another to be reading the sensor readout and tell the Captain the wrong reading.

 

Sorry, suspension of disbelief, that means we can't apply normal logic and reason because its canon.

Really? I think its a little more far fetched to walk upon a ship and not notice that its ten times the size as it was a day ago, or a tenth of the size it was supposed to be. And poor Worf, he lives on the thing and doesn't seem to notice at all! The poor dear must be going mad...

 

we have an at-at

 

... not for long

*steals the At At*

WHAT IS LOVE! BABY DON"T HURT ME! DON"T HURT ME! NO MORE!

*stomps around town in his AT-Pathfinder*

 

250 mistakes? oh please

Every episode with Defiant is guarateed one continuity error on top of any other.


Every episode of Enterprise has theses continuity errors

Every moment in that that history
Warp engines in a ship prior to The Cage (remeber that the Enterprise had what they called a hyperdrive thought obviously not the same as SW hyperdrive.)
Ship more advanced looking than the TOS Constitution

not to mention individual ones of
meeting Klingons
meeting the Ferengi
and many many more.

 

Finally you graduate, I was hoping you'd catch that.

Actually the biggest difference I have read about was 20 meter difference in size for the Defiant. jem Ha'dar fighters seem to vary a bit in size, but that could be different production runs.

 

Please don't try getting nit-picky scott... you could double the number of errors in ST, quadruple them, increase them by a factor of 100. I could point out enough errors in SW should I decide to go thru each movie and look that would give SW as much higher ratio.

Why?

IT DOES NOT HAVE THE SCREEN TIME.

Period.
End of discussion.

 

Learn to quote first off...

and second, adding a full deck is quite a big difference when there's, what? 4 decks TOTAL?

You are adding 1/4 onto it's height.

That's a pretty big difference for such a small ship...

 

A deck doesn't have to be full size, just big enough for a crawl space

 

...

...

I honestly don't know how to reply to that...

have you EVER, in ALL OF STAR TREK, seen an ATTIC?

NO!

So why the FUCK would you imply there MIGHT be one?

Deck is to Starships as Story is to Skyscrapers.

STANDARDIZED.

Christ, what would EVER make you think contrary to that? Jefferies tubes perhaps? Maintenence access? They are separate parts of the ship and are, generally, between decks.

Oh, and as you are so FOND of saying:

Prove it.

Wowza, some Wars fans need to get laid methinks?

Nah, kinda cool but I bet they fuck it up.

 

Then of course that still means that UFP firepower has increased since that event, as we see them taking on alot more firepower later. Good thing they upgraded those shields.

Nope. The Founders like everything to be standard. They would hate for a Jem'Hadar attack ship to be even an inch longer than it would be and thus that would make it unlike the Domionion. Seeing as you have no other proof and the ship that always varies is the Defiant, then I suppose its the Defiant now isn't it?

Are we done playing this game, or can we get back down to real debating, in which case you have to admit that your wrong about the 400 gigawatt idea?

 

He will never admit to it- he's so hopped up on jesus-juice from his fanboy friends that he thinks he's right.

 

Actually the ratio does not concern me as much as how many time ST repeats mistakes. I mean even if they were slightly consistant, but they aren't. Not even close. I mean SW if it makes a mistake it's minimal but ST messes up BIG things.

 

Oh, I know that. But now he either has to admit to the logical fact that the writers made a mistake, just as the CGI people made a mistake, or he has to agree to something that anyone with a half a brain could tell you is wrong. It was a trap. >=)
