William Shatner Helps J.J. Abrams Plot Out 'Star Wars'
The biggest problem with the "Star Wars" prequels (besides, you know, Jar-Jar) was in the intervening 15 years between episodes fans had basically made those movies in their heads, and nothing could live up to the majesty of whatever they had concocted.
Luckily, J.J. Abrams has taken that into consideration, and seems open to taking suggestions directly from fanboys as he crafts "Star Wars Episode VII," as in last night's interview with Jimmy Kimmel where he took pointers from a guy with a light saber and a fat dude in Slave Leia drag (natch). And, surprise, O.G. "Star Trek" stars Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian) and William Shatner popped up to offer their own expert opinions. Get More »

Paramount
While most sci-fi fans are over the moon about "Star Trek Into Darkness" and the whole J.J. Abrams reboot, you may be surprised to learn that there are still quite a few "Star Trek" traditionalists who decry the new films as a monstrous blasphemy. A self-professed "Star Wars" fan turning "Star Trek" into a shoot first and ask questions later action franchise? No way.
And that got us wondering: Which is actually better, the new "Star Trek" or the old "Star Trek"? Get More »

William Shatner Calls Out J.J. Abrams Over 'Star Wars'
William Shatner is more than just a film icon, he's a national treasure. From "Star Trek" to "T.J. Hooker" to The Priceline Negotiator to his amazing career as a musician (seriously, check out his 2004 album "Has Been"), Shatner has pretty much done everything there is to do in show business.
So when Shatner talks, people listen — which is why his new comments to Movie Fanatic about director J.J. Abrams taking over "Star Wars" are making waves.
And let's just say the captain of the Enterprise doesn't seem thrilled with the idea of Abrams doing both "Star Trek" and "Star Wars." Get More »

The Final, Final Frontier: Next 'Star Trek' Adventure Includes No Original Cast Members
Paramount
In a marked departure from the tradition of the franchise, word on the street in the galaxy is that the next "Star Trek" installment will not feature any original cast members. That's right. Not a one.
That means no William Shatner (who seems pretty booked up with his Priceline commercials anyway), no Leonard Nimony (who appeared as Spock in the last flick), no… you get the picture. Get More »

George Takei Quashes Shatner/Fisher Feud With Common Enemy: 'Twilight'
Summit
Fans of science fiction have come to love George Takei as Sulu on "Star Trek," an outspoken civil rights advocate in his personal life, and a guy who looks darn good in pleated slacks and a polo. But perhaps the most important role in of his career is that of mediator between two of Hollywood's premier nutcases.
Hot on the heels of William Shatner and Carrie Fisher's videos arguing the relative merits of "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" comes Takei's own YouTube contribution.
So what does he choose? Like anyone who's had to stop two children from fighting over a toy, Takei takes the high road by introducing a distraction in the form of a common enemy to create peace between the feuding sides. Get More »
