Nu Trek by a mile. Great Star Trek is significantly better than great Star Wars imo.

As another lifelong Trekkie, I disagree. No, I strongly disagree.
Although Picard S3 was freaking awesome, I'll grant that.

Lots of people did which is something the prequel haters will never admit.

They both went from awesome to terrible.
But Star Trek also went from 'pretty smart' to 'fucking retarded'. Therefore Star Trek is worse.

I enjoyed the Star Trekkin song from the 80's otherwise I never got into it. So I'm going to vote Star Wars which fell off after the OG trilogy.

Yup. I liked all three of them even right after watching them out of the movie theater. Hell, I started collecting all sorts of Star Wars books and stuff right after Attack of the Clones and wow, that Coruscant car chase blew me away.
Revenge of the Sith is also one of the best Star Wars movies ever made.

It was funny I was made fun of for being a huge star wars nerd by normies as a kid and when the prequels came out when I was high school and I loved them the "real" Star Wars fans shunned me for being a fake fan. Just can't win I guess.
Meanwhile, I'm getting a chuckle out of this kid at Target picking up a Darth Sidious doll and going "execute order 66" in his best old man voice.
Mission accomplished George, mission accomplished.

I always loved Palpatine way more than Vader since Return of the Jedi.
Of course, in Revenge of the Sith, he went all out and got the love he always deserved.

Even Picard s3 is mediocre. I cant see shit or hear the awful villan in half the episodes. We got 2 great hours out of 8. They had the ship, the cast, the sets and the money to do something truely awesome.
I like snw but it isn't anywhere near as good as enterprise let alone tng etc. It's more relief it isn't discovery. I refuse to watch academy. They ruined my favourite tv show.
Starwars had a few cool scenes in ST, solo was ok - kenobi, bobafett and Mandelorian are watchable if disappointing to varying degrees plus we got the cracking Rogue one and Andor.
It's not even close. One is a rollercoaster, the other is a bowl of dicks for breakfast for the rest of your life.

The Disney canon also has some pretty damn good video games which saves it a little bit.

I thought the nu-Trek movies were ok, but all the tv shows seem irredeemable. The Soy Wars movies mostly suck ass, and the tv shows range from unwatchable to pretty good.
But I vote for Soy Wars because it is so much easier to sell Star Wars. Star Trek is basically John Lennon's "Imagine" in space (60s hippie idealism) and that has a shelf life and that shelf life ran out in the 1990s. Star Wars can be ANYTHING.

Star Trek stories are vastly more differentiated than Star Wars in terms of plot and theme. Like...it's not even close.

That's a fair point. I was speaking more in broad strokes than individual episode or movie plot.

I'm trying to understand how Star Wars has more potential in terms of "broad strokes" than Star Trek? What does that mean?

The sequel SW films were just dull.
Picard felt like an entirely different IP.

Yep, exactly this. The people making Star Trek today don't understand Star Trek at all.
