Big Star Trek fan. But I've never even seen Star Wars.

They just don't understand that the terminology is "Trekker." That's all.

My understanding was that Trekkers were hardcore fans; I can’t claim to be that obsessive, so happy to be called a Trekkie.

I was always corrected on that one.

It's their thing.

I'm a complete amateur compared with those guys.

Same. I like the movies and watched some of the next generation and Deep space 9. It was entertaining enough. But that's as far as it goes.

Strange New Worlds is very good - I highly recommend it.

I most certainly am. What an awesome sight it was to see this new outer space tv show in glorious, beautiful color. We had recently purchased our first color tv. Complete fascination! I also immediately fell in love with handsome Captain Kirk.

I own 2 sets of the first release TOS. All of the movies. Purchased TNG for my grandson.

When I think about it I viewed and lived the “first” of many things. Lived through the Kennedy assassination, watching live Oswald getting shot, watching live Bobby Kennedy’s funeral train, giving Blacks the right to vote, letting them dine with me instead of just relegating them to cook my meal, watching man walk on the moon, the turbulent 1960’s, watching from my front door the space shuttle explode, too many things to count…

Honestly?? I haven't watched a STAR TREK movie since probably 2007 when the Godawful "GENERATIONS" came out and after that, I said forget it.. Wrath of Khan will always and forever be the Best of the franchise.. It simply was and 1982 was such a long time ago

Well i'm not religious so I stuff that hole in me full of Star Trek instead.
