His knowledge can't be too encylopedic, he appears to be using the eleventh doctor's sonic screwdriver rather than the fourth's.

I find this situation completely unbelievable. I actually HAD a Call of Duty playing, sports fan, douche bag roommate in college. The guy playing that role in this video is WAY too articulate.
People who like COD and sports are automatically douchebags and inarticulate, gotcha. Thanks for simultaneously insulting myself and certain members of the LRR crew.

Unless you're saying the CHARACTER is a douchebag, in which case you have missed the point entirely.

Encyclopedic knowledge of Doctor Who? That makes him pretty geeky. Just sayin.

Ok, so according to sources here:

http://www.merzo.net/index.html

and here:

http://www.theforce.net/swtc/isd.html#dimensions

An imperial star destroyer is over twice the size of a galaxy class Federation starship.

according to the wookipedia the Imperial II-class star destroyer has the following armaments:
Octuple barbette turbolaser or Ion cannons (8)
Heavy turbolaser batteries (50)
Turbolaser batteries (50)
Additional turbolaser batteries (26+)
Heavy ion cannons (20)
Phylon Q7 tractor beam projectors (10)
KDY ISD-72x deflector shield generator domes (2)

and the Enterprise D is as follows from the Star Trek Wiki:
"The armaments of the Enterprise-D included twelve phaser arrays, two torpedo launchers, a supply of 250 photon torpedoes and hundreds of antimatter mines. The ship was protected by a high-capacity shield grid that could operate on multiple frequencies."

Unfortunately that's all the digging I can do in terms of comparison. Assuming (as high-powered light based weaponry) they have the same concentration of firepower, the enterprise is horrifically outclassed by a mass-produced star destroyer (Remember the fleet of SDs in Return of the Jedi, yep mass produced.) Additionally, keep in mind a Star destroyer is more than just a massive battleship, it's also a carrier with at least 72 tie fighters (source wookipedia).

Something tells me Matt is actually right about this one...

sorry for being "that guy"
