Steam me up, Scotty! William Shatner is reportedly flipping his wig over Leonard Nimoy apparently being offered a cameo in J.J. Abrams' planned Star Trek feature film (a prequel to the TV series, by all accounts). The erstwhile Captain Kirk "is very upset," a source tells the New York Post. "[He] has been lobbying for a role [for himself]." Asked about the supposed dis, the Shat's rep tells the tab, "I don't know that to be the case, so I can't comment." OK, fine, break out the mind meld....

This is a prequel, right? Who is Nimoy playing? He can't be Spok's father because we've seen a great deal of Spok's father. Is he going to play Spok's grandfather? Maybe Shatner can play the guy who gets NuSpok and NuKirk cheap hotel rooms on Vulcan.
