I really loved the babylon jump technology. Ships opening a subspace rift and traveling through it. I think that is the best of the choices. What do you think?

I like them all but B5 Hyperdspace is like a new frontier with strange goings on and mysterious races living there, all the others are just normal travel where nothing exciting really goes on.

Two from star trek. Don't they not count as the same? And there are more than just that, there's Gravity Drive (Event Horizon) Stasis (Alien) etc. But SW Hyperspace is the coolest, especially from first person view with all the blue lights flying by.

The Gou'ld don't just use the Stargate system, they also use faster than light propulsion (Hyperdrive), which can travel 10 times the speed of light (Ha'taks)

I suppose it depends what you mean by the "favorite" one... The hyperspace in Babylon 5 is the coolest looking, in my opinion, but I'd rather have a ship with a SW hyperdrive for speed reasons...

I agree with Sim Rex here.

And it is even relativly plausible.
