Vic 17 Posted February 12, 2013 William Shatner recently gave his tongue-in-cheek opinion regarding the news that J.J.

And he’s probably the most talented director of that ilk we have. But, he’s gone too far this time. “I think of him as a buddy of mine; I’ve taken him out for sushi; I think it’s time for J.J. and I to have another sushi and let me put him straight about two of the largest franchises, and not employing me in either one of them. I think he’s just foolhardy.” View the full article Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
