Star trek 6 made a nice gesture to the TNG series: Khitomer, Worf's grandfather, talk of a better tomorrow, Kirk using Picard's 'no one' line, and talk of the next crew taking over. TOS was willing to accept TNG and welcomed them as part of the franchise....3 years later Generations slapped TOS in the face and screamed ''ONLY US FROM NOW ON!!'' and killed off a beloved character as the final bow. and so TNG (or the writers atleast) showed that TOS and TNG DON'T belong together. thanks Ricky.

I always wish that he would talk more about Spock's growth as a person over the many years. The Spock of the early series was different from the Spock of TMP. Spock of TWoK was different still. Obviously ST3 was a setback for his growth, & ST4 was a good start at his trying again. ST5 isn't worth mentioning. But in ST6, he had reclaimed, and even surpassed what he had achieved in ST2. The ST6/Unification Spock was a Spock who was comfortable with himself. But who still found a bit more to learn.

Jesus those glasses are HUGE! You dont need a windshield while driving :)

[BluRemembra]

Words can't describe what this man means to me.

[sbergman27]

@BluRemembra Indeed. It is hard for me to maintain the distinction between Leonard Nimoy, & the Spock character he created. It even takes a bit of an effort to force myself to type "Spock character", since for me, Spock will always be very real. I'm 48. From the time I was 9, Spock has always been my primary role model. Not that I've done well at emulating. But simple emulation is not the goal. I hope, someday, to be so comfortable with myself as Spock in ST6. But still learning!

[BluRemembra]

@sbergman27 It may sound pathetic, but I am only fifteen, and Star Trek has not been a part of my life for that long - but I now feel like it has been with me my entire life. I have never experienced anything like it, it is so rich and powerful. If I had to choose one person to be my role model, it would indeed be Spock. I have never admired anyone so much. He is an incredibly strong man, and I hope I can continue to adapt his ways to my own life to the greatest extent possible.

[sbergman27]

@BluRemembra I remember a bit about being 15 & having Spock as a role model. I remember the day that "ST:The Motion Picture" opened. Understand that I did not actually discover ST until 1972, when I was 9. Other than the animated series, there had been no new Trek in 10 years when TMP was released. I was so excited! To this day, watching that movie takes me back to those long ago days, when I was 16. And reminds my of how, at various points in my life, Spock has been an influence.

[Sparky1002]

A very brilliant man.

[hubbaman9885]

1972? I think you mean 1982 with the "Wrath of Khan," where Spock dies, he flubbed, oh well, I knew what he meant. :)

I think NBC realized that canceling Star Trek in the 60s was one of the biggest mistakes they ever made. Oh well, that just means that all the money went to Paramount instead. hehe

Leonard Nimoy is incredible and it sounds really nerdy but Star Trek and specifically Spock saved my life. I felt Spock's pain and joy and shame and anger as if it were my own when I no longer thought I could feel anything. When I saw him die I felt like someone close to me was gone and I bawled my eyes out when I no longer thought I could cry! I don't care if it stounds pathetic or stupid but I wouldn't be here right now if Spock hadn't taught me how to feel, ironic as it is.

[FutureMovieMaker93]

@FutureMovieMaker93 I just wish there was a way for me to let Mr.Nimoy know how much I appreciate it and repay him for what he's done for me.

[StoneKnivesBearskins]

@FutureMovieMaker93 BTW, maybe you should write him a fan letter and tell him about it. If you google search for his address, you are sure to find it,

[FutureMovieMaker93]

@StoneKnivesBearskins Thanks...I've been thinking about writing him for a while, maybe I will, thanks :)

[StoneKnivesBearskins]

@FutureMovieMaker93 Aww, what a beautiful comment.

It doesn't sound pathetic or stupid, it sounds sweet and wonderful. I think Mr. Nimoy would be very touched and happy if you said that to him. <3

[StoneKnivesBearskins]

Well, the phone did ring. It just waited 18 years. LOL

I love Leonard Nimoy. He's so amazing. I'm in awe of him.

[Gavrusssha]

@StoneKnivesBearskins i too)))) i too.... really kind & really smart

[StoneKnivesBearskins]

@Gavrusssha Agreed

[DrMadolite]

@StoneKnivesBearskins Well he IS cast in the newest Star Trek film as well. But now they're running out of excuses to keep him.

[rabbitfish63]

@StoneKnivesBearskins Actually, it didn't take that long. Spock was in TNG.
