What better way to celebrate the long weekend than with a video pitting the two most beloved science fiction franchises against one another in heated combat? No matter your allegiance, Star Trek or Star Wars, you’ll find a lot to like about this masterfully done video. Finally, fan boys on both side of the spectrum can declare a truce and enjoy the holiday season without malice or grief. You Battlestar Galactica fans are screwed, though.

ph2007070701334 The Roswell Festival: UFOs Welcome!

In New Mexico, alien-worshippers from nationwide are flocking to Roswell to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the supposed alien crash. Alien species and UFO’s are, of course, welcome to attend. And yes, this is a serious request.

The festival, which officially commenced on Thursday, includes the standard live band and alien-themed contests. The attendees range from "relatively sane" to "like trekkies at a ‘Star Trek’ convention." Also attending are many guest-speakers, who discuss everything from alien encounters to "What Does NASA Really Know?"

This is the first year the celebration is actually being held at Roswell. While there might not be a high chance of having an alien visitor, it looks like a bit of fun during these boring summer days.

Unlike other home theater rooms, this Star Trek-inspired creation uses real props from past movies.

Gary Sekulow collected backlit graphic panels from Star Trek: The Next Generation and Voyager, the captain’s chair from Star Trek: Enterprise and numerous props from other Star Trek series and movies, and commissioned an Atlanta home theater installer to put the whole thing together.

Quite impressive for a guy who just wanted to watch some home movies.

Gary Sekulow, Star Trek fanatic, wanted a viewing center that was in the likeness of his favorite show, Star Trek. After buying two original bridge consoles at a Christie’s auction, Sekulow discovered that he didn’t have the space to fit the consoles into the room. The pieces were then switched into another room, and installed with other memorabilia found from various Star Trek movies. The result: a very identical replica of the captain’s bridge. It even comes equipped with the captain’s chair from Star Trek: Enterprise. Fan boys, eat your heart out.
