4th since when do two things HAVE to be ALIKE in ANY WAY AT LL to be compared...... if that is a rule then tell ALL my teachers that.

I will do so. However, I don't think they care about a site on the internet. Point still stands that it is unreasonable to compare cars and spoons, because they have one common point.
5th i am not trying anger anyone i just want a simple and CIVIL debate so plz for the love of whom ever ur deity is just vote stats ur peiece and move on with your life...

With a reason, which everyone so far (of the people voting), as been nice to do.

I closed the HP vs Twilight down for not being comparable, this is even less so. See my issue?

As for the - topic: If forced, I would go with LotR. It was some great books, I really did enjoy.

Couldn't you have reposted the entire thing, so I could at least have deleted one of them? That would have been quite a bit more convenient than a double post saying the same, but now with less errors...

Star Wars!! great storyline, great music, great actors. star trek just seems TOO futuristic and LOTR seems to have too much magic stuff

As everyone else is saying you cant compare them! Actually it just happens to be that these 3 (trilogies, series, movies) are my favorite of all time (Harry Potter included). Star Wars has tons more action than Star Trek(at least in the original series which is what I watch), but Star Trek shines in it's brilliance. Has anyone here seen Mirror,Mirror or the one about V-Ger=Voyager? These were amazing! Nothing can beat them. LOTR is cool but should not be in this forum.

Star wars has greater technology than Star Trek...at least Star Trek keep Earth in perspective.

LOTR seems to have too much magic stuff


Maybe because it's a fantasy movie? Also LOTR has little to no magic when you look at the majority of fantasy stories.

It was explained via SCIENCE! Which is just a fancy word for George Lucas murdered our childhoods with his lame explaination.

I mean those of us who saw the originals when they didn't have Epissode 1,2,3 (oh so much fail).

This doesn't surprise me...

@wolf1991

My brother made me watch the trilogy first and then 1, 2, 3. I agree the originals are much better but we needed 1, 2, 3 to explain how exactly anakin/vader was luke's father. Son i think it was good that they made the prequels otherwise it wouldn't be good.

well Trek is out simply because its a TV show... sorry, higher budget means better production. its a sad fact.

Now, i loved all nine movies, but Return of the King is my fourth favorite movie of all time.... but Starwars always has a place in my heart...

meh

I'm not against having the prequels I'm against the fact that George Lucus had so much creative control over the plot of said prequels. The originals were not directed by Lucas, he was only the screenwright. However, George Lucas fails at directing and producing, and creating adequate plot for prequel. Example: In A New Hope one of Vader's admirals refers The Force as an acient religion. 15 years pass between Epissode 3 and 4. 15 years would not make something remotely ancient.

Are we talking about LOTR books or movies? I read the books, haven't seen the movies. I'm saying LOTR first, Star Wars second and Star Trek third.
