Jetworks Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I'm not typically one to get caught up in celebrity, but for me, Leonard Nimoy was not a typical celebrity. Rare is the person that can create a character that not only helps to define, and in turn transcend, a genre, but also forces us to reconsider the human condition. So it is more than a sad day for geekdom, it's a sad day for generations of people who were likely shaped morally in some small way by his character portrayal of Spock. "Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most....human." RIP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtQUePN5y40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 R.I.P. to one of the coolest characters ever, and that's in any genre. Nimoy doesn't get enough credit for being as good an actor as he was simply because he's only known for Spock. But the dude was hella talented. He was great in Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

RutgersJetFan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Also I know it's a bit soon to be planning the funeral, but I just want everyone to know we are definitely putting his body in a torpedo and shooting it into space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Makes me very sad loved Leonard Nimoy. May he rest in peace R.I.P. to one of the coolest characters ever, and that's in any genre. Nimoy doesn't get enough credit for being as good an actor as he was simply because he's only known for Spock. But the dude was hella talented. He was great in Invasion of the Body Snatchers. He did a lot of Narration work which was equally great,,, just a fantastic talent that will be missed in so many ways. Greatest Sci Fi Character ever was played to perfection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
