HOW IS HAVING A WEEK POINT IN A SHIP RIPPING OFF STAR WARS!
STAR WARS RIPED THAT OFF SOME BOOK OR OTHER MOVIE/TV SHOW!

Woden

end of the day lucas was inspired for his star wars ideas from star trek something which he openly admits to iirc,

now there is a forum for the debating the strengths and weaknesses of the death star, we shall stay on topic

User45701

Sry data.

We kinda are ontopic we are talking about 318

The large Xindi weapon with a week point

He says its ripping off star wars, but just cause a ship has a week point does not mean that it rips off star wars

Woden

no problem

i agree just coz a ship has a weak point doesn't mean it is ripping of star wars, i'm sure that concept was used long before then and will continue to used many times in the future

i'm sure if someone scours their memory they can think of an episode of TOS where they looked for the weak point in something to destory it, or what about that episode of DS9 when the valiant was looking for the weak point of the jem hadar ship.

that concept is not a star wars original and as a result not a rip off

The planet eater in TOS which was made of neutronium comes to mind.In order to destroy it Kirk detonated the impulse engines of a Connie class ship inside the planet eater destroying the internal workings of the machine.

1 64 megaton detonation destroying a planet destroyer made of neutronium.......im sure you could call that a major design weakness

Woden

good man bizmark, that the ep in which there is captain decker the commander of another constitution class star ship? and is will deckers father from the motion picture?

bizmark

Ya Decker was the captain of USS Constellation which was used to destroy the planet eater his whole crew was killed by the planet eater when it destroyed a planet where they were hiding.

And i don’t know if theirs a connection to the Decker from ST one :dunno:

Oh ya and it was a 100 megaton donation not 64 :cool:

Woden

aye think he's his father, uncle hang on i'll look it up

aye he's the son of commodore matt decker that chap from the episode

data

User45701

I didnt know he was the son of the comodore.
Well anyway we only have to wait 4 weeks 6 days and then Sky1 will show 319 and Sky will be 3 days ahead of the US (just like with the 2nd half of SG1)

bizmark

Commodore Decker doesnt look old enough to have a son in command of a starship of the Connies importants tbh

i though he was only like 30 by the looks of him........But its been years since i seen that film

Take your head out of your arse.
Break it down:

Similarities between Death Star and Xindi:
o Designed to destroy planets
o "Weak point" is at the centre
o One torpedo fired at "weak point"
will destroy Death Star completely
o Perilous journey must be taken to
reach "weak point"
o Both is under construction

It's not just ripping off the "weak point", it ripping off the entire thing.
From now on, I propose the Xindi weapon be called "The Xindi Death Star".

Just goes to how lame Berman & Braga have become...

look folks i don't want to know this crap, i have no idea that the weak point for a xindi weapon is at the centre, or that a journey will have to be made to get to it or whatever, this stuff hasn't aired yet and i dont' want to know about it, if i wanted to see episodes of enterprise before they aired i'd have them through bit torrent but i don't i watch it on monday evening at 8pm on sky 1 along with a number of other people i presume that read this forum.

so the next time some body puts info in with out spoiler tags i'll ban em for a week, the next person that does it two weeks the next a month etc. etc. also if your quoting some one that used spoiler tags ensure that there original quote is still hidden or don't quote it at all and if your response is in any way related to there hidden quote make sures yours also contains spoiler tags

OK i numberd your points

---

1. Ok so anything that can destroy a planet is a copy of the death star? Moron

2. Ye i know lets build a weapon where the power core it on the outside and unprotected - MORON!

3.It wasent one torpedo it was deveral torps inside a ship to detonate at the same time (self destruct) That is different than SW, but emm ye Enterprise is about 1 ship to will we just make 50 ships sppear from the future to fight the Xindi?

4.It wasent perilous it was a suicide mission

5.Actually it is built. They where doing matence

---

Also i reject your proposal on renaming the Xindi weapon to Xindi death star

User45701

Of what do you speak?

User45701

Go on.
Tell me another way to have a

Emm all my posts are spoilerd, They say 318

bizmark

Theirs a difference between rip of and a "tip of the hat" to the death star ......Much like the Breen helmets are a tip of the hat to the bounty hunter in star wars

But its true b and b has lost the polt when it comes to ship designs

subsequent posts quoting the originally non spoiler tagged information have been tagged
