    So very sad, a true legend of Star Trek, one who will be greatly missed. Like his final tweet says though, he will live on, in memory. Sha Ka Ree awaits you Mr. Nimoy, may you rest in peace.

    It's sad to see such a fine mind go out, that last tweet was eloquent, poignant and philosphical. He created a Titan character through his acting and interpretation of the character. I think he was a great actor in that he gave us what is essentially a mythological figure for our era, I think Spock will be remembered in the future as Achilles et all are. Very few people are able to do that, it's just really sad to see such people die, RIP Mr. Nimoy.

    AND he never revealed the secret of how to do that sub-clavial nerve pinch.
    I always wanted to do that. :-(
    Travel safely across the Universe, and fare well Mr Spock!

    I know I get emotional easy enough, but that scene always always gets me, all the way up to Kirk's voice breaking during the funeral... :(

    It's very sad to see him go but 83 years is a lot of living. He led a good long life. I'm sure he made the most of it.

    "For the Love of Spock" - A Documentary Film
    How It Started

    Last year, just before Thanksgiving, I approached my dad, Leonard Nimoy, about the possibility of working together on a film about Mr. Spock. I had skimmed through some of the books on the making of Star Trek and felt there was so much more to explore about the birth and evolution of Spock. And the timing seemed right, as the 50th anniversary of Star Trek: The Original Series was not that far away. Dad agreed that now was the right time, and that he was 100% committed to collaborating with me on this project. He also reminded me that we were (then) just days away from the 50th anniversary of the start of production on “The Cage,” the original pilot for Star Trek in which Dad first appeared as Mr. Spock.

    Please participate in my Kickstarter campaign and help me complete a project that was important to my dad and has become extremely important to me.

    Thanks again for your time and consideration.

    LLAP,

    My favourite performance from Spock was in Star Trek The Motion Picture. I liked it when he as scripted to be more Vulcan than human. Pretty much saved that movie and ensured it continued success.
