William Shatner did not like his performance in Generations. Obviously, he blames the director. (www.geo.tv)

David Carson was not the most accomplished feature film director. He only directed one minor film before Generations, so maybe he wasn't the best choice... but he did direct four episodes of TNG- including Yesterday's Enterprise- and four episodes of DS9 before filming Generations, so I think he had a pretty good understanding of what makes a Star Trek movie.

Maybe Bill is just not the actor he thinks he is.

Oooh, that's his Canadian showing.

"Pasta." "Salsa for the nachos." "Nazis." All with that short "a as in cat" sound.

He was probably pretty pissed that he slipped and got called on it. Any actor working for a US market would know how odd it would sound south of the boarder.
