No disrespect to Zachary Quinto, who is an amazing actor in his own right. But whenever I think of Spock, only Nimoy comes to mind.
Nimoy isn’t Spock. Spock is Nimoy.
And lizard beats spock.
As I recall, nothing beats Spock. But it has been a while since I played rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock.
Scissors cuts paper.
Paper covers rock.
Rock crushes lizard.
Lizard poisons Spock.
Spock smashes scissors.
Scissors decapitates lizard.
Lizard eats paper.
Paper disproves Spock.
Spock vaporizes rock.
Rock crushes scissors.
I hear this comment.

Ethan Peck. Agree! A shame he never got to act opposite Nimoy like Quinto did.
Quinto has the disadvantage that the movies he played Spock in were shit overall.
(The first two, at least. Like most people I never saw the third one.)
His narration for Civ 4 was charming and wonderful
Also Seaman on the dreamcast.
The quote from Sputnik he read was especially memorable.
He wasn’t always Spock to me.
I saw him in tv shows like “In Search Of…” and other movies like “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”. I know I saw a Western with him in it, but can’t remember which one.
Yeah, Spock is his most famous role by far, and despite what anyone thinks of the new Trek movies, I really loved his part in them. (IMO Quinto does a great Spock. No, it’s not Nimoy, but it’s a really good performance.)
He’s also one of the best bad guys in Columbo
Don’t forget about the Bilbo Baggins video!
That video was the pinnacle of art. We should have just given up on society after it was done because nothing that comes after could possibly be any better.
Aww, went looking for it and I couldn’t find the full episode. If anyone else wants to know, it’s S02:E06 Columbo: A Snitch in Crime if you want to see highlights or look for the episode.
It is on peacock but then you have to like… Use peacock…
Nope. I’m subscribed out. Unless it can be found on the high seas, I’ll be giving this one a pass.
I don’t care what people say about the new Star Trek movies at all. I liked them.
I have no idea what kind of person Nimoy was. He was always spock to me. The other actors I know better. What’s a good docu that shows Nimoy as a person?
Fringe.
There’s a documentary about him on Netflix that was done with his family around the time he died. It paints him as a caring dad, and of course Spock. It’s been a few years since I watched it.
He was also Galvatron in the Transformers movie.
And Sentinel Prime in the Bayverse, which makes him one of the only redeeming qualities of that steaming pile of waste.
I did see that when I was checking if Nemoy continued to do the voice in the series or just the movie. (He didn’t, it went back to Frank Welker, who voiced Megatron.)
I gave the first Bay movie a chance, because did 6 year old me ever love transformers in the 80s, but one Bay movie was more than enough for me. Maybe I’ll look up the Bay scenes on YouTube so I can hear Nemoy without dealing with the rest of the movie…
I’ll rip open Ultra Magnus, and every other Autobot, until the Matrix has been destroyed.
Coronation, Starscream? This is bad comedy.
It’s a pity you Autobots die so easily, or I might have a sense of satisfaction now!
I may have seen this movie more than any other single movie that exists. I can hear his voice in my head. So many great vocal performances.
I still think this is a near perfect movie. I will still watch it every now and then, and I feel it holds up perfectly. The soundtrack is 100% dated, but I think the songs are awesome and I listen to them occasionally too.
I had no idea that Mr. Nimoy was the son of Jewish Ukrainian immigrants.
I also think of space elves
“Remember”
