Reply #46: Shatner deserves being made fun of ...

[moof]

there are very few people who might have been able to make Kirk & Star Trek what it has become. The problem with Shatner is that for many years after Trek he thought it was a one way street & resented & belittled his Star Trek experience. The Saturday Night Live bit he did as the bad Kirk was very close to his true feelings about the series.
It was sickening to see him deride Star Trek every chance he got. Scotty is almost the exact opposite of Shatner, on " The Tommorrow show " with Tom Synder he was talking about how even though the part type cast many of the Star Trek people it was worth it to be part of something that had already become a classic TV series and allowed for them to be in movies when there would have been little chance for them otherwise.

and last, Star Trek IV " The Voyage Home " should have had several more Oscar nominations as well as a couple wins. They will be talking about The "whales" Star Trek movie far into the future.
