Albeit the new movies were total stinkers but it's the subsidiary shows like Clone Wars and Rebels that keep the franchise fresh and interesting. The story writing and quality animation really carry the franchise forward and give it momentum that maintain it's relevance.
Star Trek on the other hand is totally killing it with those new movies. They're awesome! Star Trek really needed the reboot of the last two movies to keep it going. I'll certainly never buy a Star Trek figure but i'll definitely go and see another movie if and when it comes out.
With that being said. Both the new Star Wars and Star Trek movies are currently under production and being made in my hometown of Vancouver. Star Wars is looking like it's going to be a heavily CGI based movie and there isn't a lot of sets being built for it. Just Animators. As far as i know it's not actually being shot here just being animated here. Kinda disappointing for me...as a set carpenter. I would really like to be able build something for the new film and see it on the big screen of one of the most influential movies franchises of my generation.
Star Trek on the other hand is gobbling up all the studio space available here for lots of live action sets that will hire heaps of folks involved in the industry and really boost the local economy.
This is a tough question for me to answer but i'll stick with my original decision that Star Wars has aged better but i really like the live action style in which Star Trek is going.
