Hanson: Zac and Isaac Debate 'Star Wars' Vs. 'Star Trek' for May the Fourth Be With You Day
Wars over Star Trek?
Isaac Hanson: It's just because light sabers are really cool.
Zac Hanson: Let's be honest. When was the last time somebody was like, "You know what? I really want a phaser!" What they say is, "I want a laser gun." You know? "I want a blaster!"

Like, you've got Storm Trooper versus Klingons. You know what? You've got a wrinkly butt face. You've got awesome blaster armor, that's pretty cool.

Isaac: The Star Trek movie that they just did is pretty bad ass.
Zac: I was pretty disappointed.
Isaac: You were?
Zac: I think they took everything up a notch except for the actual sci-fi quality of the greater
