Shatner, Get Over Yourself

October 23, 2008 by katy  
Filed under Pop Culture

In the last day or so, all the big entertainment blogs have been posting little tidbits about how William Shatner, aka, Star Trek’s Captain Kirk is upset that he wasn’t invited to fellow Trek alum George Takei’s wedding.

Boo hoo.

George has responded by saying Shatner was issued an invitation but never responded. Either way, I don’t think it matters. It was George’s wedding and both he and his partner Brad made the decisions as to who got to come and who stayed home. So even if Shatner didn’t get invited he should suck it up and just wish George and Brad the best instead of making a huge fuss about it. You’re almost 80 years old man, act like it.

It’s back! I bring you more in my series, guest stars of…. So onto the stars.

DeForrest Kelley because Leonard “Bones” McCoy rocks.
Majel Barrett as Christine Chapel. She’s more of a semi-reglar than a guest star but noteworthy because she’s also Mrs. Gene Roddenbury.

Jane Wyatt as Amanda (Spock’s mom) She had roles in Father Knows Best and St. Elsewhere.

Here, have a shirtless William Shatner.

Micheal Forest as Apollo. He did stints on many soaps including the Young and the Restless.
How to tell you’re in a mirror universe: Spock has a beard!
What’s more fun than seeing Kirk get pelted with Tribbles?
I have no idea what it is, but it looks really cool.

Diana Muldaur. She was in LA Law, and will appear later in TNG as Dr.Pulaski.

William Marshall as Dr.Daystrom (yes, as in the Institute that is mentioned in later Trek series). He had a role in Pee Wee’s Playhouse.

 Pics!! Image heavy under the cut. (Please pardon any blurryness, I'm no photographer and this was the first time I've ever used the digital camera).

 in costume

 as Hathor (with homemade hand device)

The menu at the Con suite. Monty Python  for the win.

We got conned into decorating the cakes for the Apophis birthday bash. This is my design. *G*




The costumes at the birthday bash. If the Jaffa guy had stayed, we were sure he would win.

Lucky he left when the judging came around. Fia won and got a signed pic of Peter Williams (Apophis himself).

This lady had a teddy made up like Teal'c. She and her husband had other teddies made like the rest of SG-1 and others from the show.
