as for san fran - from the times i've been there, it could get destroyed and i wouldn't care

-They made a huge floating battlestation with a hole the size of a womp rat, leading straight to the main reactor. This of course resulting in a band of underfunded misfits to use a single projectile to destory the thing capable of obliterating a planet.

-Stormtroopers wore armor that didn't make any difference, including to a bunch of teddy bears with sticks and rocks

-They had houses of mud and clay on the same planet that had hovercraft, laser weapons, and spaceships capable of faster-than-light travel

-No transporters

-"Space missiles" that could almost be outran by a single pilot space craft

-Entertainment? I mean the local tavern and speederbike NASCAR are cool... but holodeck ftw.

-Data > C3PO



I love Star Wars... but better technology? I don't know about all that.

I think there are pros and cons to the tech that is in both Star wars and star trek. As for transporters eh that does seem a lil more unbelievable that most sci fi stuff and the same goes for the food things as well. how can something just appear out of nothing? And I wouldn't want to do transporting and then all of a sudden loose the signal and bam your gone no thanks.
