Looks like we have a new celebrity feud in the making!
William Shatner has posted a new YouTube interview where he speak out about George “Sulu” Takei’s wedding snub.
On the slam-filled video, Shatner refers to Takei’s recent marriage to hubby Brad Altman and the many of stories in the press where Takei cooperated with talking about his decision not to invite him.
Shatner’s explanation? “It’s so patently obvious that there is a psychosis there.”
He adds, “Why go out of his way to denigrate me? It’s sad the man can’t find enough peace in his life to be positive and say, I forgive him for whatever those hurts were. Or shut up about it. I feel nothing but pity for him.”
Something tells us this is only the beginning of battle between a couple of grumpy old men!

I like both men but Shatner is the douche in this case. Why would he post a youtube clip? Get over it. You weren’t invited.
Seems that The Shat misses quite some partys due to his oversized ego. He isn’t in the new Trek movie either.
William Shatner can suck it!!! You know he was an asshole to everyone on the set of Star Trek!!!
SULU WAS JEALOUS OF BILL BECAUSE BILL HAD THE HERO PART. PROFESSIONAL JEALOUSY SUCKS. GET OVER YOURSELF SULU.
LETS GET HONESY : sulu is angry because Bill isn’t gay …………..depressing
Bill Shatner is a terrific actor. Has been since the 1950’s. If you look at his IMDB resume, it’s astonishing to see some of the films and televisions that he appeared in. Terrific in Boston Legal. I think he is an immensely likable guy with a wonderful sense of humor. But he needs to face up to the fact that his only friend on the Star Trek set was Len Nimoy. Everybody else thought he was a borish, self-absorbed jerk. In Shatner’s defense, his insecurities arose from his years of struggle as a young actor. He was actually living out of his car right before he got the role on Star Trek. This is not to excuse his behavior on the Star Trek set, but a lot actors wear their feelings on their sleeve and try to mask feelings of failure with brash arrogance. Takei should have figured that out a long time ago. How many people would even know who George Takei is if that ensemble of actors had never been brought together by Roddenberry?
No, Delicious–George Takei should suck it! Oh, wait…
