George Takei (Mr. Sulu): William Shatner an ‘Unfit’ Guinea Pig after Spaceflight
Page Six ^ | October 14, 2021 | Nicki Gostin

Posted on 10/14/2021 4:54:09 PM PDT by White Lives Matter

George Takei’s decades-long feud with William Shatner is rocketing into space.

The “Star Trek” actor threw enough shade at his former on-screen captain to cause an eclipse, as he dismissed Shatner’s flight this week on Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin capsule and described him as “not the fittest specimen.”

“He’s boldly going where other people have gone before,” snarked Takei, 84, when Page Six asked him what he thought of Captain Kirk’s brief trip Wednesday to the edge of space.

“He’s a guinea pig, 90 years old and it’s important to find out what happens,” Takei added, as he spoke at the opening of “Thoughts of a Colored Man” on Wednesday night.

“So 90 years old is going to show a great deal more on the wear and tear on the human body, so he’ll be a good specimen to study. Although he’s not the fittest specimen of 90 years old, so he’ll be a specimen that’s unfit!”

I’d rather hear from Chekov.

Yep. Takei is a bitter, jealous, envious human being. Must be miserable to be him.

William Shatner explains the feud with George Takei:

"I do not know who George Takei is."

Without Shatner, Nimoy, and Kelly, Takai would never have had anything at all.
Without those guys there would have been no movies where all of them finally had a chance to make some serious retirement money on an old TV series that was a ghost hit on TV and they never got any residuals , that according to De Forrest Kelly in an interview I once saw and yet he wasn’t bitter. But it was sweet for them all later with with a string of hit movies.

Walter Koenig enjoyed being Chekhov, but he really shone as Bester in B5.

Bezos rates 5.25 trillionth by the dinner-date-bedroom rankings.

She loves him for his mind.

Shatner barely knew Takei. Wan literally too busy being the star of the show, memorizing lines, shooting scenes to become anything more than passing acquaintances with the guy. Takei is clearly jealous, a player hater.

Did Takei appear in anything at all after Star Trek? Anything? If Star Trek didn’t have a cult following, Takei would be watering lawns in Brentwood for a living.

I can just see Shatner as someone asks him what he thinks of the Takei comment. Shatner says... ‘who?’
