Star Wars VS Star Trek - Star Geek

Today I’m going to answer an age old question. The question that has split geeks and nerds apart. The question that has been discussed for decades. The question that has destroyed friendships and broken keyboards everywhere. Which is better, Star Trek or Star Wars?

[@Jukrates]

You clearly haven’t watched Star Trek

[@harrycook9041]

I know right. If he'd watched DS9 he'd know what dark and scummy the Federation can be.

[@caffeinedelusions]

"Its robots may not be as entertaining" .... Data was on a serious complex journey of self-discovery seeking to explore the full range of the human experience from the standpoint of an absolute outsider. The character served as a sophisticated vehicle for discussing who we are, and what is valuable about us. Sorry you weren't entertained by that.

[@ccody-long6915]

Whilst C3-PO and R2-D2 were mere comic relief......

[@pedrogoncalvesneto2451]

YES I was like u fucking kidding me

[@sushi-hz9nd]

I have never seen a star trek film. star wars is amazing and I have loved it since I was 5/6

[@kylestateler]

Maybe you should watch Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Every word you used to describe Star Wars is applicable to DS9. You only seem to show off classic Trek which several Trekkies don't enjoy as much.

[@BrookAhlberg]

I love Star Wars soooo much!! Who is she can't wait for episode VIII?

[@oliverjones3693]

Bubbly Brook I hate to break it to ya

[@mr.worldwide1934]

I love them both equally. But depending on my mood I like one better than the other.

[@patrickwilson1459]

That makes two of us. But what does mood have to do with our judgements on these two franchises?

[@patrickwilson1459]

I got a good one, Wheel Of Fortune vs Jeopardy!. Both shows created by Merv Griffin. Wheel premiered in 1983 and then Jeopardy! in 1984. Which is better? You decide!

[@BlindJedi]

Check out the book Star Wars vs Star Trek: Could the Empire Kick theFederation's Ass? And Other Galaxy-Shaking Enigmas by Matt Forbeck. It's an unbiased scientific answering on the question.

[@madmau]

I personally like bothe one more than the other but i still love them.

[@JamesNerdMan85]

Now if someone can just make a video explaining why Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter is different. Seriously, I can’t tell you the countless times that both these franchises are compared, when they are VERY DIFFERENT!!! NOT EVERY FANTASY BOOK AND MOVIE IS THE SAME!!! Lord of the Rings is about a journey about people trying to stop evil around the world. A hobbit trying to destroy the one ring, a man becoming king, and a war against an army who wants the ring. Harry Potter is about being part of a world normal people don’t know about. Going to school to learn different abilities while trying to stay away from death, and solving mysteries. They are very different. Stop comparing Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.

[@borghome]

Don't care of the proof. We did not start the war with Star Wars

[@liamhubbard2745]

This all seems like a metaphor for the 2016 election...

[@joshuawong4801]

We're can I find that clip of spok being mean to the Star Wars fans?

[@hulkmeister23]

To be honest, War Games is a superior movie to Hunger Games; just my opinion.

[@elvisbeatlesfanmania569]

i love star trek it was my favorite

[@jessicaarmstrong3199]

Star Wars is a world that has two sides the light side the Darkside the balance and it is so much bigger Star Trek is about becoming advance scientist in the world of the future traveling to Otherworld living on Otherworld and meeting new alien life forms

[@petyrbaelish4245]

You sound like Brodual. Are you the same person?

[@harrisonadler5299]

I love both, but it was an unfair fight because star trek was made before star wars, so it's effects aren't as good. great video though otherwise

[@hugobogaart1726]

So basically nerds like star trek and the rest star wars

[@TripleAProductions-jq8ez]

[@enderman_of_d00m24]

+ Zamalamahama s Actually, it's The Enterprise, The Borg and Picard for me.

[@recemarkou3223]

He is very biased tho

[@Shermos]

Star Wars is fairly light fantasy entertainment. Star Trek is more philosophical and based on real world issues and problems. Both are great for their own reasons. And JJ Trek is not real Star Trek. It's more like Star Wars, which shouldn't be a surprise given that JJ is a Star Wars fan.

[@bluecoconut9543]

Star Wars reflects on real world stuff too

[@StarGeek]

For those of you who waited past the credits, don't worry. Gary will live to fight another day.

[@harrisjohnson4048]

I loved that animation especially with BB-8.

[@mannydanner1144]

+StarGeek Thank U for makin another awesome video! :)

[@sanktkaj1781]

That was a good ending

[@Phoenix2312]

Thanks +StarGeek The best and most honest view so far! I have to quite honest, I love both Franchises but both for the differences... I love the Scientific side of Star Trek, but also love the Fantasy of Star Wars... While I am die hard Star Warrior, I also love the Trek universe... There is no need to fight over them at all...

[@pr1ncecharming306]

hey dude could u do a lore episode on galactic credits ( money in star wars )

[@007robotchicken]

I don't understand why they're compared so often. They're different genres; Trek a science-fiction series that focuses on exploration of the unknown, whilst Wars is a space-opera that focuses on action and adventure. Second, Trek is a franchise that is most enjoyable on the small-screen, but Wars is more enjoyable on the big-screen. Third, since Trek is so much better, there's no point to debate this topic anyway. ;)

[@zeewala1883]

I think something you forgot from star wars is that it's also "political" - Star Wars has a lot of politics involved.

[@johnc6158]

+BlueStormTr00per 66 yes. Leia was on a diplomatic movie in the first scene, we might not see it but there is a Senate and many things in the background

[@harrycook9041]

Hahahahaha, oh the galactic senate. Oh jesus, how interesting that was...

[@louisporcellini3756]

At first i liked star wars because it was fun, but i grew to love the complex nature of star trek this is something you can not get in star wars

[@patrickwilson1459]

You know something in a way I prefer Star Wars more than Star Trek. I’m a big fan of the original Star Wars Trilogy. I prefer it more than the the prequel trilogy as much as how I also prefer The Mandalorian than The Book of Boba Fett. I like the original Star Trek series best but I don’t consider myself a Trekkie. So even though I like both franchises equally I am somewhat more Star Wars than Star Trek.

[@patrickwilson1459]

I must say, this is the best video I’ve ever seen featuring these two pop culture franchises and describing exact differences between the two. I’m more of a Star Wars person in a way, my mom is a Star Trek person, and I first saw Star Trek years before I saw Star Wars and there were actors I fell in love with back then. Like Patrick Stewart, and Levar Burton I even watched Reading Rainbow as a kid. And eventually I found William Shatner’s acting to be amazing. Even the spaceships and weapons from both franchises always had their moments. I couldn’t let go of anything that had suddenly become a part of my childhood years. So live long and prosper 🖖 and may the Force be with us all.

[@mjb51270]

I like both. May the force be with you and Live long and prosper 🖖

[@darthjarjar2721]

Star Wars +The Empire Strikes Back -Revenge of the Sith (ugh, so awful) +Great practical effects -Terrible CGI effects (like those in the prequels) +Great characters in the OT -Terrible characters in the PT What I'm getting at is that Star Wars is incredibly hampered by the prequel films. The equivalent of the prequels in Star Trek are the JJ reboots, which are freaking awesome, so I give this round to Star Trek.

[@memegalore1222]

What? The prequels had perfect CGI effects.

[@steviemcdonut]

This comment has not aged well

[@mongoknusaren2239]

Star Wars is better.

[@raptorus7773]

[@mikemyers1300]

True

[@aperson16]

PREACH.

[@Ironwalrus8989]

Ahem

[@raptorus7773]

+Jolly Good Galaxy you don't know what your missing out on. #Star wars is better then Star Trek! :-) (personally)

[@Sky-ns4jb]

Wow Star Geek! I've never seen a video like this! When I usually look up Star Wars vs Star Trek, I usually get a video of someone favoring one more than the other! And usually a lot of hatred towards the other. But here you laid the differences and didn't show any favoritism. You know well knowledge of both franchises and that made the video 100% times better. This video was just a BIG wow! Big thumbs up at the speed of light!

[@philipmarkus8173]

the idea of automatic sliding doors came from star trek

[@heiko9209]

I like both

[@heiko9209]

and by the way very good video

[@StarGeek]

Thanks so much!

[@alexanderkornetka5522]

+StarGeek I like both of them thanks for another epic video live long with the force

[@kevgreenhalgh263]

"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it".

[@brownsugar4593]

I like both, but I know more about Star Wars and prefer it.

[@paavoaro003]

Same

[@XianVivre]

I agree.

[@AaronCataract]

yeah boi well sed

[@louisporcellini3756]

i like star wars, but i LOVE star trek

[@theyellowcat1439]

Brown Sugar Yeah. I actually like Star Trek a little bit better, but I know more about Star Wars.

[@SeemsLikeSomething]

I've always summed up the difference as such: Star Wars follows the classic heroes journey, while Star Trek follows the human condition. Great video, agreed entirely and I love both franchises so much! In entirely different ways :)

[@PunkSolar22x]

Both are amazing in they're own respectable way.

[@briansivley2001]

For me personally I prefer Star Wars over Star Trek because I got into Star Wars first and I believe that in film you should be unrealistic with sci-fi movies. Sure Star Trek did technically came before Star Wars as a TV Show but they did become a film franchise after the success of Star Wars which I don't like. But I do have to give Star Trek some credit because of a character in MLP. If Star Trek The Next Generation didn't come out and they created Q us bronies wouldn't have the character Discord who is inspired by Q from Star Trek The Next Generation and in fact voiced by the same person who did Q. I do have to give Star Trek some credit for that even though I don't like it.

[@finn52517]

This is how I balance the votes hereTrek:amazing acting,(when there are battles they are sometimes amazing),um duh the creator of Star Wars said"without Star Trek there would be no Star Wars"Star Wars: (honestly I have never seen a star wars movie of event so please don't hold this against me),amazing battle scenes according to my research um well if you read the trek section you should have a basic understanding of my opinion

[@babylon0111]

I really love both Star Trek and Star Wars

[@geichgange71]

I love how all the comments are saying they "like Star Trek, but Star Wars is better." XD

[@androognoix1685]

Funny how people say Star Wars is better but some of them are prequel and sequel HATERS.

[@toiletboy150]

I totally agree with this video i may not be a fan of star trek but i understand this video and we should respect weather people like magical or scientific.

[@newsiesforever208]

Star Wars is also my favorite. I don't like Star Trek, but I can see that some people might.

[@theminecraftNinja152]

I love them both equally but on the eve of battle you see me flying I carrying a light Saber in one hand and a phaser in the other while piloting my tardis

[@enderman_of_d00m24]

Star Trek predicted Tablets and Phones, people 'nough said

[@fanboy2015]

There hasn’t been a good Star Wars movie since 1983.

[@GamerGalaxyChannel]

Star Wars is WAY better

[@tomascontador3312]

Personaly I like both but i did for many years like Star Wars but as the years went by I was facinated by certian plots and stories that Star Trek had to offer.

[@hannahmisch3357]

Thanks for this amazing video. It's like the only one to that I have seen that hasn't brought down either of the franchises. I am a huge star trek fan and I am so happy to see people who understand to full capacity that is all on taste. thanks again for making my day.😀

[@leonardswatosh1392]

I like both of them, but Star Wars FTW!

[@thescarlethunter2160]

Star Wars or Star Trek It doesn’t matter We are all nerds here

[@ADDOITALLDAY]

For as young as you are you have great knowledge of the Star Wars Universe. Even though you're not a big Star trek fan I love the respect you have for it. I'm a 70's baby and at the age of 5 Star Trek became my first Sci fi love. I use to watch the old 60's reruns as a kid and i loved it. Then in 1977 at the age of 7, I was introduce to Star Wars. It quickly became my favorite Sci Fi property. For many of the reasons you listed in your video. But to this day i love both and i love them for their differences. No one is wrong for loving one over the other. It depends on what you're more into. If fantasy is your thing then Star wars is a great fit. If your more into true Sci Fi as it applies to our reality. Then Star Trek is your thing. I see value in both and never took sides on SW Vs ST. Great Video keep up the great work. It's good to see young fans like you who will carry on the fandom of Star Wars.

[@LB-fx9lj]

I love Star Wars I never really was interested in Star Trek

[@LB-fx9lj]

Let's just say I'm with you Star Geek

[@brandonwalker9245]

duh

[@Friendlyneighborhoodguy]

I am a fan of both franchaises

[@danielshottopics8187]

I would say Star Wars is more popular it's Fan base is 3 times bigger then Star Trek and Star Trek is a small niche audience it's audience is too small to compete with Star Wars, look up small Niche and you get Small Audience a minority audience. Star Wars is worth 4.5 Billion while Star Trek is only worth 2 billion at best, as I was saying Star Wars Generates Mass Appeal and is much more popular with mainstream audiences Star Wars Generates 1 Billion or in the case of Force Awakens 2 Billion a movie while Star Trek at best Generates 487 million Dollars a movie.

[@ctv186]

There's only one individual who can truly bring together Star Wars and Star Trek fans; JJ Abrams. I'm calling it now, there's going to be a Star Trek counterpart to StarGeek who'll go by StarNerd and call out StarGeek using the one fingered Vulcan Salute.

[@darthjarjar2721]

I don't know...I love Star Wars and Empire, and really like TFA and ROTJ, but everything else has been meh to suck. Everything Star Trek related I've seen has been really good to great. So I'll have to say Star Trek.

[@enderman_of_d00m24]

I love both. Though, and this is for bias reasons, I love Star Trek more. Star Wars: A wonderful, complex, and sometimes cheesy universe that you can escape to any time. Star Trek: A gigantic, well thought out series that can help teach us how to better both ourselves and our future. That being said, I'd love to see a future where we take inspiration from both.

[@rogelioquintela1089]

I'm totally with you👽

[@ErickSoares3]

Star Wars make me tired. Watch 2001: A Space Odyssey make me more entertained that SW.

[@jasonhatt4295]

1:59 However this particular clip is not an example of said Idealistic universe.

[@patrickwilson1459]

Not bad. This is best video I’ve seen made for about which pop culture franchise is better than the other. So live long and prosper, or may the Force be with you, or whatever.

[@AroAceGamer]

I grew up with Star Wars since early childhood. I only casually watch Star Trek. Star Wars wins for me. :-)

[@tct2971]

Star Wars is Iconic!

[@harvieslater]

I like both Star Wars and Star Trek. Sure, I like Star Wars more because it means more to me as I watched it at a younger age. But I still love Star Trek. But as you said you can't really compare the two.

[@kristjanbirnir5869]

Star Trek vs Star Wars is similar to Sega vs Nintendo.

[@patrickwilson1459]

Kristjan Birnir Hmm, I never actually thought of that. All right! That’s very good!

[@EliasMerz]

DATA NOT AS ENTERTAINING?!?!?!? im sorry but you lost all your credibillity... star wars droids got nothing but flat boring humour, data is a well developed character that shows how an android might behave under new and unexplored circumstances

[@Datch99]

Star wars is so much better then Star Trek

[@ravensfan8998]

Incest....that’s all I will say

[@madisonbadger9454]

I love them both..... Stargate too.

[@kkirkkgaming5943]

Star wars is better

[@SuperViccity]

Awesome video as I'm a fan of both. liken to Star Trek like a trip to a vast and beautiful city while Star Wars like a Vacation to a wonderful island paradise. May The Force Live Long & Prosper Always Within All Of Us. SO SAY WE ALL!

[@dionr1168]

I never could get into Star Trek. And this is coming from someone whose mom and cousin are both Trekkies. As for Star Wars, I actually stop short of calling myself a fan. I've been exposed to the original SW Trilogy my whole life (ROTJ was released in theaters 5 months before I was born), but I didn't seriously get into it until I was in my early 20s, by which time the Prequel Trilogy was almost complete. To me, it was the Fantasy aspect and especially the Lightsaber duels that ultimately drew me into Star Wars.

[@_starwarsmemes_3955]

Star Wars is better (my opinion)

[@fifth-yaboi8914]

The Star Wars Guy Legends for life

[@oliverjones3693]

_Star Wars Memes_ you will have the high ground forever

[@mynameislight9933]

As much as I'm interesting in Star Trek..Star Wars is MUCH better in my opinion

[@LordJezza1]

"Its robots may not be as entertaining." Come on. Anyone who honestly compares Data with C3PO or R2D2 could not possibly come to that conclusion. Data is one of the greatest characters in television history. Watch Star Trek: TNG for yourself. You know it to be true...

[@harrycook9041]

Star Trek is like classical music, Star Wars is like Rock or Pop. Star Trek you can really sink your teeth into the tiny details, the moral dilemmas, it's a way to show the problems of today through the lens of the future and how we resolve these conflicts; just look at episodes like The Measure of a Man, Far Beyond The Stars, In The Pale Moonlight, Duet, I Borg, Balance Of Terror, Devil In The Dark. All these episodes show the struggle of a person to resolve some sort of conflict. In Deep Space 9, they try to avoid an obviously inevitable war for 3 seasons, and when the war arrives it is tough and brutal, we see the mental effects it has on people and how war is a horrible thing, never to be celebrated nor forgotten. In Star Trek, there isn't really ultimate good nor ultimate evil; the Klingons, Romulans, Ferengi, Dominion, Borg, etc all are played as bad guys at some point, but they still have redeeming qualities that mean that they are not completely bad. The Klingons even becoming strong allies of the Federation. The Federation also isn't 100% good, with things like section 31 and other rouge extremist organisations fighting for what they think is best for the Federation. Moreover, the Federation are the bad guys for many people. The Bajorans had spent a lifetime fighting off the Cardassians and now have to deal with a new external influence over them, and to them, that sucks. Star Wars on the other hand is fun. It's the goodies and the baddies, there's not really a grey area in it and that's fine. A really entertaining, fun hero story where we follow a small group of rebels fighting against insurmountable odds is always going to be enjoyable. One is not better than the other, it's just for different people. Of course you can have dilemmas within Star Wars, Darth Vader is a perfect example of this, he does occupy a sort of grey area deep down and his resolution is doing the right thing. But most of the villains in Star Wars are much more Bond style mustache twirlers, content to let every die to advance their personal gains. *TL:DR Star Trek is philosophy, Star Wars is an explosion. They're both cool in their own ways.*

[@alessandroschatzmann7983]

i love both :)

[@tomcatm16]

I'm more of a Star Trek fan and found that this was amazing. Exactly how both should be compared. Apples and oranges. Though I don't know which ones which. Maybe, both are the same and it doesn't matter which is which.

[@neil6958]

I am a fan of both franchises, and both bring unique points of views. Star Wars actually feels real as far as planetary implementation goes. And, Star Wars feels like something that actually did happen (a long long time ago, in a galaxy far away). (like a 100,000 years ago.)

[@patrickwilson1459]

Best video ever about which is better than the other, especially for some specific differences between the two pop culture franchises.

[@keskonriks710]

I thought your video was very interesting, but I have a few criticisms. First of all, it seems to me like you only watched the films and the original Series. When you said "Its robots are not as entertaining" and you showed a picture of Data, I can't help but think that you didn't watch the next generation, or else you would know how funny and hilarious many scenes with Data are ä, as well as the massive character Development he's going through. Also, you mentioned an advantage of star wars in teems of character. Now to be fair, I haven't watched all of star wars, only episodes 4, 5 and 6, but while the characters weren't *bad* per se, they were extremely predictable and one dimensional. This is another moment where I come to think that you haven't actually watched the tv shows apart from the original series. If you watch Deep Space Nine for example, you will get some of the most fleshed out and interesting characters in the history of television. In conclusion, PLEASE consider to watch at least the next generation and ds9 to get an understanding of the strengths of Star Trek. And if you have watched them and my speculations were wrong, or you watch them now and don't change your mind, then I respect everything said in the video as it is your personal opinion.

[@theonegrxce]

I prefer Star Wars because it was more interesting to me. I watched a bit of star Trek but I didn't really get it.

[@conofthedead884]

So.....if you haven’t seen Star Trek and were never willing to give it a chance against Star Wars.........why are you making a comparison video? Doesn’t really make any sense, feels like you’re low key trying to bury Star Trek.

[@harrycook9041]

I really think that you need to watch both in order to appreciate them both. Also, if you've watched DS9 you'll know how dirty and scummy Star Trek can be. Also, Star Trek has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better music. Listen to Wrath of Khan, First Contact and Into Darkness (even though that film was stupid).

[@brianholmes1812]

I love both franchises, and can't really put one before the other. star trek shows an idealistic future and explores many philosophical, scientific and political themes. For example, in star trek: deep space nine episode 1, the cardassian empire finally leaves the planet bajor after a 50 year occupation. The planet's provisional government, not yet stable, reaches out to the federation to help rebuild and also protect against the neighbouring cardassians. then, a wormhole is discovered nearby, and is the first stable wormhole known to exist. inside the wormhole, a being exists that does not understand linear time, so it must be explained very philosophically to it by commander sisco. star wars shows another galaxy ravaged by war, and explores many moral, spiritual and romantic themes. For example, in revenge of the sith, anakin skywalker fears for the life of his wife, padmè amidala after he receives a force vision depicting her death. After hearing the legend of darth plagueus, who could revive the dead, anakin vows to learn this mystical ability. However, after palptine is revealed as a sith, anakin must decide whether to commit the atrocities required to become a sith and learn this ability, or destroy palpatine and save possible millions of lives, but risk loosing the life of the one he holds most dear and their unborn child. Both are great franchises, and I urge anyone who hasn't to give star trek a go. There are plenty of different versions, so I'd recommend watching the first episode of each, and continuing with the one you most enjoyed.

[@ChloeLawrenceSmallcutie]

I love both, however in my opinion Star Wars is better - I prefer the story and the effects :)

[@ntdonat]

star trek has no romance except for Kirk getting all the alien .....! i thought he was known for that. also, horny space whales... that is a thing. it's just that characters in star trek are less lickily to be quepping non stop in life or death situations and perving nearly 24/7. it's just really wierd, not ramantic.

[@FlipORican00]

I personally like both franchises, because i see them, just as you mentioned, are completely different will really comparing the two in comparison in terms of what each focuses on. For sure Star Trek is Science Fiction, while Star Wars is more Fantasy. There is plenty of room for both franchises and comparing the two is like comparing apples and oranges, which are both certainly different other than both being a fruit.

[@weppy420]

StarWars😍

[@DragoanDell]

I think the coolest differences between Star Wars and Star Trek is that Star trek has waaaay more technological advances it seems, but is always wanting to discover more and travel further. Star Wars doesn't care about upgrading it's rust buckets and also knows pretty much every alien that pops out from around a corner.

[@jessicaarmstrong3199]

It’s not magic it’s cald the force and yes star trek and starwars are very different Star Trek is a story of science future a world where aliens and humans can live together and they finally gotten through the whole UFO thing and they are just average citizens working together traveling the universe and exploring strange new worlds and Star Wars it’s actually a very beautiful message of hope and love it’s the story of balance dark and light

[@athens_1psvr31]

One thing I think you missed with classifying Star Trek as just Science Fiction. The Volcan powers are more comparable to the Force then Science.

[@keskonriks710]

If you want a big space war, star trek has that too. Ever hears of something called *Star Trek: Deep Space Nine*?

[@xxxxxxxxx123456789]

Star wars is more entertaining, exciting, and accessible. Star Trek is more intellectual, philosophical, and has acute social commentary. I appreciate them both for different reasons. You can like the fun thrilling thing and the deeper smarter thing at the same time.

[@SovereignStatesman]

So we agree that Star Trek would blow the living fuck out of Star Wars in a fight.

[@addisonrey5343]

Let's be real star trek wins, star wars is unipolar and this means only one superpower (the galactic empire) where as star trek many equal superpowers and more species(it was cointed), star trek also has better robits, data has no emotions and he doesn't understand jokes and when his conscious was deleted in star trek Picard's latest episode the emotional link from TNG made us fans cry our eyes out, also star trek has mulitverses
