is a 2000, independently produced, documentary running for 50 minutes, and released in December 2001 as a DVD along with 30 minutes worth of special features, one of the two included dealing with the opening of the Las Vegas Star Trek: The Experience attraction. It was an outing in the larger Hollywood Rivals series, though deviated from its primary focus of highlighting the purported rivalries between individual Hollywood performers, rather pitting two successful science-fiction franchises, Star Trek and Star Wars, against each other instead.
The worldwide popularity both franchises achieved since their respective inceptions had been such, that they have become firmly part of universal pop culture to this day, as is amply evidenced by the recent and hugely popular, heavily Star Trek and Star Wars referencing sitcom The Big Bang Theory (2007-2019) in particular.
Nonetheless, ever since the first 1977 Star Wars film installment was released, there had been a definite rivalry between the two franchises, especially among their respective fanbases. Particularly intense in the early decades, flaring up again when the Star Wars prequel trilogy premiered, starting in 1999 with The Phantom Menace shortly after the premiere of Star Trek: Insurrection, the rivalry was such, that it in itself became part of popular culture. As such, the production of this documentary has in itself effectively become a tangible manifestation of this pop culture element.
Predominantly narrated, the documentary is interlaced with mostly archival interviews excerpts with cast and production crew from both franchises, divulging their takes on, and experiences with both respective franchises and their fanbases.
