I've watched a bit of star trek but....

The cool kid.

is there loads of cool battles between spaceships and I know most things like captain kirk and the klingons and the spockanians and such but is it worth watching and most importantly cool action and cool dialouge??????
 
You ask that on a board devoted to Trek? I mean, if we didn't enjoy Trek, we wouldn't bother to come here, would we?

Yes, it is worth watching. I love all of the series except one, and even that one has its good points, so yes, watch Trek. There are cool space battles (cool by TV standards), there is great dialogue, there are wonderful characters and there are interesting situations, some of which make you think.

Mind you, every Trek show - like every TV show that I've ever seen - has some weak episodes. But in balance, there is far more good than bad.

BTW, it's Vulcans, not Spockanians. Although now that you bring it up, Spockanian is a pretty cool word!

:techman:

Couldn't agree more! Why would you go to all that effort of joining a board whose only purpose is everything Star Trek?:confused:. Before joining a board like this or calling yourself a fan I would say watch the films and and at least some of the series first (any of them). And if you like Trek ask Santa for some DVD's. I think many of us would also agree that it is not just about the battles as you do not get them everytime, a lot of the time they are just great stories that you will want to watch again and again.
 
It's also helpful to develop a little bit of patience. I mean, jeez, you can't wait 9 minutes for a reply? How do you manage during commercial breaks or during that legal disclaimer at the beginning of DVDs?
 
I'm actually fan of it as I've seen two episodes and a bit of a movie. I think Johnny Depp should be the next captain, it would be super special awesome!
 
...and then the Mommy bear said to the baby bear...

Yes, I also like fairy tales, and this one is a lulu.

Fee fi fo fum... I smell a troll's bum.:rolleyes:
 
This thread will either suck or be awesome. There is no in between.
 
If you're looking for cool space battles, although they exist in Star Trek, isn't why you should watch the show.

Cool? :wtf: Cool? This is a Trek message board, cool is not allowed here. We only allow women to join because of a court order.
 
*sigh*

Yet another - ahem - Major disappointment. ;)
... but, but there's like cool stuff and wicked battles and awesome aliens like from a whole other planet and stuff...

Then again, for the old farts there's like technobabble and fake science and long, boring, preachy monologues, too. :rommie:

Cool dialogue? Well, I know a certain gazelle speech you'd love.

spockanians . . . awesome
