This is really sad news. It's very rare the I will be actually be upset about the death of a celebrity but Spock was always a hero of mine and I always hoped that some day I would get to meet Mr. Nimoy. Every day I wear my Star Trek lanyard to work and I have a Spock pin that I have on my messenger bag. I'm wearing the Spock pin on my hoodie today to pay respect. Rest in peace, Mr. Nimoy.

Love Nimoy. Heck, he's the one actor from the Original Trek that my wife can appreciate.

I'm surprised Laird hasn't made a post on his blog about this yet given the huge fan of Star Trek he is. I suppose he will eventually though but as of the time of this post its not there yet.

Weirdly enough, I was watching Star Trek: TMP this afternoon when I learned about this on Tumblr.
Obviously, he was quite a talented dude, and I think he also helped make the Disney film "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" better than it would have been otherwise.

Watching the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers he was in with Donald Sutherland and Jeff Goldblum. Love him in Trek, but I'm sure he'd want to be remembered as more than Mr. Spock.

That's very sad news. I wasn't really a Trekkie, but I respect his work and thought he was good. I still loved his appearance on The Simpsons though:
Mayor Quimby: May the Force be with you. Leonard Nimoy: Do you know who the hell I am?

The only thing that could cheer me up were if someone could make a picture of the Turtles doing the Vulcan salute.
Would be pretty easy for them to do it seeing as they only have 3 fingers...

Its hard to believe William Shatner is/was the same age as Nimoy, he's 83 as well. Imagine if he dies too this year? Losing both the original Star Trek leads in the same year would be devastating.

Ouch- I guess I called that one, sadly. This is such sad news, both for us fans, and for those who simply liked and admired him for his other work or as a person. He will certainly be missed.

It makes you remember when celebrities had actual talent and were icons, unlike many of the actors of today.
It will be a sad day when Patrick Stewart, Harrisson Ford, and William Shatner pass on as well. Scary thing is they're all close in age too. Shatner is 83 just like Nimoy was. |
