I like it, but I'm fairly objective and certainly quite a lot of recent star trek stuff is utter shite. For instance the 2 most recent movies, most of next generation, about half of voyager....

How about liking one, but not the other? I like both, but then again I'm easily pleased

jlowap, would recommend the following 2 for you:
1. The documentary 'Trekkies'. You'll enjoy that. Oh yes. 2. Look for Triumph the Insult Comic Dog - Star Wars. You'll enjoy that even more..
I've always thought there were much scarier things than fans of these two shows - anime cosplay comes to mind.. Failing that, the Tolkienites - whats worse, being able to speak Klingon of Elvish? -------------------- "If you can't control your peanut butter, you can't expect to control your life." - Calvin

The movie "Galaxy Quest" is well worth a watch, whether you love or hate Star Trek.

Galaxy Quest was great.
Star Trek was good up to the time series 7 of DS9 was about (best trek ever imho, although others wouldn't agree). Enterprise is ok, but a little ambiguous considering when its supposed to be set. Voyager used to be good.... The last good trek film was First Contact (wtf was Nemesis about...? :/) So there you go...

I'm not really into Sci Fi, but there's nothing wrong with liking it as long as you don't take things too far. It's one thing to have seen most of the episodes/films and know a few random facts, and another to spend your weekends dressing up as Mr Spock and brandishing a large silver "weapon" made out of MDF (I knew someone once...OK
). It's the harcore fans that scare me - there's something inately worrying about people who belive so strongly in something that doesn't actually exist, or is likely to in the not so distant future! :wink:
