He's just peeved, all the way around.

I'm solidly behind being disappointed that I'm not in it ... It'll be interesting to see whether it is successful or not. If anyone can make Star Trek live, [Abrams] can do it. The question is: Is it still alive, or is it time for all of us to move on?

You know, in some earlier interviews it looked as though Shatner wasn't as bothered by all this as we felt he should -- but he really does seem irked that the franchise has moved on without him. I am sure it doesn't help that every time he is interviewed, he gets asked if he is pissed about not being in it. It is a tiresome subject, but until the movie is released or he dies of old age? We are going to hear about his disdain for a LONG time to come.

Out of fairness to him regarding Star Trek V? He did have to compromise far too much, and the movie that he wanted would have been better. B-level special effects house aside, the bulk of Star Trek V was good.. excellent soundtrack, neat ship sets, the shuttles and probably the best dialogue between Kirk, Spock and McCoy of all the films. It was just that darn ending that killed the film.. had Paramount opened up the purse strings for the rockmen Shatner wanted? Final Frontier could have been a solid entry in the film franchise.
