I think Star Wars is better than Star Trek. Why? It’s simple. Star Trek is for wimps! Yes‚ I said it. WIMPS! Star Trek is an old television show that is about a society traveling through outer space on the Starfleet Enterprise and takes place in the distant future.

It is full of colorful characters and you watch it on the big screen.
