Months after George Takei announced that he wasn’t inviting William Shatner to his wedding, Captain Kirk is responding to Sulu’s diss. I think we all assumed that because Star Trek has such a lasting appeal that we thought their friendships were the same way. As Shatner describes it, appearances were just for show and it has been over 40 years ago and the actors didn’t cross paths much back in the day when the show was filmed.
So which one are you siding with? I am biased towards Shatner because I love Boston Legal!
UPDATE: George Takei responded to William Shatner on his site:
“It is unfortunate that Bill was unable to join us for our wedding as he indeed was invited to attend. It is our hope that at this point he joins us in voting NO on Proposition 8, which seeks to eliminate the fundamental right for same-sex couples to marry in California.”
–George Takei, October 22, 2008
I don’t know who to believe anymore…Beam me up, Scotty…
In all seriousness if you live in California and you are over 18, please Vote NO on Prop 8!
