Honestly...
young man = hot = 10 points
old man = ugly*(( potential amount of cash) possible grandson) = 10 points
It's a draw. But if you gave me 10 seconds to decide I'd go with (https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.quizfarm.com%2F1111437374craptain%2520kirk.jpg&hash=5dea3b6824816e4b6e1a7c4e60e760e22cba049e)
[EDIT]
I assume the better looking one is the better captain >_>;;
PICARD YOU IDIOTS!
Picard by a landslide.
The 8-ball said Kirk. Plus I have fanfic of him and Spock. Plus Picard is lame.
Skank, you know that this is kirk now:

You couldn't have played that any better :*
I feel the in the generation series the show was given proper time to correctly evolve (i.e. technical evolution in one aspect, the show appeared to be quite realistic especially compared to the original, with the directors using more of the digital aspect in the cosmetic features, rather then puppetry) which allowed the producers to give the fans what they truly wanted and also with more experience they knew what would work better in the show (a realistic captain, stern, strong, intelligent, bald, compared to an overweight oaf or 'bafoon'..) and also incorporated real-world science into the show.
My first evidence in this matter is the ratings and awards;
Generations had the highest ratings of all the Star Trek series. [1] (http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Contrib/SciFi/StarTrek/history.html)
Generation was also nominated for an Emmy for Best Dramatic Series in 1994 and received a Peabody Award for Outstanding Television Programming. [2]
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/st/tng/intro.shtml)
My second evidence would of course have to be the length of both series;
Star Trek ran for a total of two series, Generations on the other hand ran for seven.
We can also look at the acclaim of both actors;
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Faycu40.webshots.com%2Fimage%2F19919%2F2000744385348640833_fs.jpg&hash=d22a885d85c164e6c353db91a56278b85e2f1055)
As we can see in this historical picture, we observe Picard meeting with President Bush, Bush having just offered Picard Presidency, but he humbly refused knowing that with his perfect order America would become far too great and economically crippling all other nations into third world slums due to his perfect rulership.
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Faycu40.webshots.com%2Fimage%2F19919%2F2000797794968191994_fs.jpg&hash=f2f843065f0246baf4adfc96eb369d3acb6d29f9)
Here we can see Picard as he broke the racial boundaries of the late 50's, being the first white man to greet an African-American as an equal, of course the leaders at the time followed suit and brought in affirmative action to follow in Picards graceful ways.
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Faycu01.webshots.com%2Fimage%2F23720%2F2000755326875147002_fs.jpg&hash=514f6bed963955902d0daa05e0d1bdb8299b1d64)
This is of course when Picard set the body building record in 1992 and was named Mr Universe. The record still stands today.
Of course compared to Kirk, who's only notable public action was when he was caught selling Crystal Meth to school children, as seen here;
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Faycu02.webshots.com%2Fimage%2F23481%2F2000864337904328036_fs.jpg&hash=aaed1b7c1774665f9e17ba3c86c47e8dace6999a)
We can see that Picard, as a real person, is far greater then Kirk.
My final and most noteworthy evidence would be this link;

Picard IS Star Trek
LOL saucy. Also, voted picard by default when I saw the poll.
Fun Fact: Patrick Stewart (Picard) is, in fact, 9 years younger than William Shatner (Kirk).
Voted Picard because he knows how to act and didn't feel the need to rip his shirt in every episode.

Well, William Shatner is good in Boston Legal.
But yeah, I agree, the original was pretty bad.
What the fuck is wrong with you people?! Picard can suck kirks manly cock, Kirk ftw.

Is it just because he's canadian?
No, Shatner is star trek.
^FAIL
Gtfo, I don't even know you guys if you think Picard is better than Kirk. Kirk fucking made the series, without Kirk, there would be nothing.
Quote from: biohazard on July 25, 2007, 01:47:09 AM
No, Shatner is star trek.
And Star Trek sucked. Hard.

The only people who think that are 50 year olds and Canadians.
Sisko was a better captain. This is fact, not conjecture.

Next Generation was by far the best Trek ever made. Sisko doesn't even come close to Kirk, and that says a lot.

I totally agree. I want sex with you too.
:mad: Why won't people accept Kirk!?
Because Picard was a better captain.
But I like both the actors...but Picard is still a better actor.

Even Janeway was better than Sisko.
Oh that's right. I just pulled Voyager into this thread.
Gtfo arlen, and anyone else who doesn't KNOW that Kirk is BY FAR the best. Kirk is what made the show.

He also got the show canceled by the way.
Well where the fuck was Picard then?! HUH?! PICARD DIDNT DO SHIT! KIRK IS WIN.
A new series with a better captain.
That's where he was.
Please, Kirk is better. It is known fucking fact. Kirk>Picard.
Kirk had a speaking disorder and was fat.
Picard was a perfect captain, funny, stern, skinny and tall.
Looks like Kirk is about 9 voted behind in the poll, lol.
Kind of like how Stewart is 9 years younger than that old fart, Shatner!
SHATNER WAS THE BEST BECAUSE HE HAD A SPEAKING DISORDER AND WAS FAT! ITS WHAT MADE THE SHOW FUNNY!
Quote from: biohazard on July 25, 2007, 06:08:47 PM

He was also short, so he was like, the opposite of Picard!
Yeah, he was the opposite of Picard, meaning he was a good captain.

So it was Shatner's heavy mental retardation and obesity that just made the show funny? And that's why you like it?
So I guess we can now see Kirk fans for what they really are; a bunch of insensitive, heartless people who laugh at mentally handicapped human beings. That's sickening.

And have you seen Kirk/Spock 34? Fukn hot, come on.
Have you seen Kirk 30 years later?

You'll take those words back after you see kirk giving spock a sponge massage
Kirk had passion, he was the best captain ever.

mitochlorian??! MITO FUCKING CHLORIAN?! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT.
PICARD
KIRK FUCK DAMNIT HES THE BEST
lol at the poll because picard fucking CRUSHED kirk
Doesn't matter, Kirk is far better. Emily agrees.
Too bad Emily doesn't represent 16 people or else Kirk might have won ;p
i dont know about that
just how fat is emily?
Like 40 people at least.
Quote from: biohazard on October 11, 2007, 09:51:38 PM

If she's 40 people... then that make me 400 people. ;9
So...liek...Kirk is such a racial slur, making Picard so many times better, because he's not a racial slur.
That would make him worse.
I THOUGHT PICARD LOVED INDIVIDUALISM
I like Kirk out of straight lined reasons
