I'm indifferent about Star Trek. I was raised by "Trekkers" (They foam at the mouth if you call them Trekkies) and spent an unhealthy portion of my childhood crying in the corners of Star Trek conventions as Klingons and Borg loomed overhead. Hell, my father even once wore his Star Trek uniform to work under his regular uniform, and then stripped out of it after giving a public speech. (He's a Bird Colonel in the US Air Force... and yes, you should be scared.) My mum even tagged along just to snap pictures.
Though admittedly, watching the show(s) is a bit of a guilty pleasure. They're consistantly entertaining.

Do I have to do an episode by episode synopsis on the best episodes of TNG again? For the record: Star Trek watchers != nerds (for the clueless, "!=" means "is not equal to") Damnhooligan: IMO, there's a HUGE difference between "TrekkER" and "TrekkIE". A TrekkER is just a casual watcher of the show who might have a few other things associated with the series (such as video games), but that's it. That's what I consider myself. TrekkIES, on the other hand, are just as pathetic as these over-obsessed Star Wars fanboys who collect anything and everything related to the shows/movies and talk about nothing but that 24/7, ones like your parents back in the days  In short, TrekkERS are OK, TrekkIES need to be shot in the face. |

I was raised (kind of) by my dad, one of those drooling TrekkIES, you mention Diana Troy on the beach in a 2-piece and they drop the jaw. I couldn't stand that crap for the longest time. I hated James Bond too (Still do), because he would just watch those movies till the tapes melted. But I have to say, I did enjoy watching First Contact and Nemesis of the "Next Generation" series. But if given the choice between, say, Evil Dead 2, or something of that sort, it'd be Evil Dead 2, no doubt.
I hate Shatner.... |

Matt: The Star Wars fans...at least the over-obsessed Trekkies aren't as ostentacious or well-known as "Warries". Mars: geek != nerd ...to me at least, a "geek" is someone who's just a crazed fan of something or knows a lot a about the same something (like us; we're all TMNT geeks), whereas a "nerd" is the one with the highwater pants, buck teeth, inch-thick glasses, suspenders, and flaky voices, heh.

Could a mod please split this Star-Trek conversation into another thread so we can get back to actors?

*has flashbacks* (Too bad the last time I did it, I screwed up -_-) anyways... Trek's great I can't see how people can be so against the show. For the Record, I'm also a Trekker. Never been to a trek con, never dressed in a trek uniform. But I do have a Couple of Com Badges and Action Figures. When TNN/Spike TV started airing Next Gen, it made my day (Especially since it comes on right before WWE RAW every monday) |

I agree with Rez about the Star Wars fans being worse.
