RE Toys:

I think it’s the largest selling toy franchise in history...

In any battle between stormtroopers and redshirts, the stormtroopers would fire massive volumes of blaster energy, hitting absolutely nothing of importance, and the redshirts would fall down and expire anyway :p

I guess I might as well be the odd-man out.

"Star Trek Enterprise = No One Admits they like it..."

I really enjoyed Star Trek: Enterprise. Much more than I ever did "The Next Generation" or "Voyager". The development of the show, along with the obvious first-generation equipment that was being tested on the Enterprise, as well as the alternate reality versions of it, were quite original and, to me, very enjoyable.

Very true. The red shirts might accidentally run into the massive volume of Storm Trooper blaster fire. As you said, the ones that don’t would just fall dead anyway.

If Darth Vader got onto the Enterprise, he could probably take the entire ship by himself by himself with one hand tied behind his back. The Emperor could probably take one of their ships by just thinking about it.lol

I liked it too, but I don’t publicly admit it, LOL

The 4th season was the best one...

Well, the creators were thoughtful enough to show their colors early on. I always view new series with an open mind but, invariably, it never takes me more than 4-5 episodes to know "thumbs up or down"

After the "space pirates" episode, when the captain made asinine remarks about "even space pirates have rights, and we have to consider them innocent until proven guilty," I could not believe it, stopped watching in mid-episode, never looked back and never regretted it.

I always thought it was hilarious how there was a ship from Star Trek that was used by some group of villains and it looked like a big black box!

You mean the Borg Cube? Remember, in space there are no aerodynamic concerns. Plus, no-one can hear you scream.
