RIP Leonard Nimoy

Awww, no :( not another great star?! Rest in peace, Leonard aka Spock. You will be missed.

He was a cool dude. LLAP

My first introduction to him was as host to a show called In Search Of which was very similar to Unsolved Mysteries (which may also be too old for some people to remember, and also had a host die..)

I was never much of a fan of the original Star Trek series, but I loved the movies for some reason, and I did end up completely adoring TNG so I wholly respect the groundwork he laid both in television and sci-fi. And I too enjoyed a lot of his cameos and voice work

This is pretty terrible news. But like has been said, he lived quite a long and full life. So instead of regretting his passing (which I can't help but do), I shall simply try to be more thankful that we had him, and for such a long time. Rest in peace, Mr Nimoy. You did very well..

Those of you who are friends with me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter have seen this, but this was his last tweet:

Attachment 63266

It's dated four days ago, so he must have know that it was almost over. Still, I think that's such a beautiful final message to leave behind to the world.

So poignant. May he rest in peace.

Fond memories of singing this whilst drunk with friends. Also, Leonard Nimoy did a better version of The Hobbit in 2 mins 20 seconds than Peter Jackson did in over ten hours.

I was never much of a Star Trek fan but the guy is a legend. Sleep well, man.

Ahaha, I posted that on Facebook! So silly. :)

Utterly devastated, haven't felt this bad about a celebrity death since Robin Williams. My first thought was that it was a terrible way to start the weekend, but then again...Star Trek TOS best of Spock marathon? I think so too.

Rest in Peace.

Go watch the episode where Spock is horny. That T'Pring. What a tease!

I've been avoiding this thread because I don't know what to say. I have no words to express just how important Star Trek was to me growing up. It absolutely shaped me into the person I am today. I've known the crew of the Enterprise longer than I can remember.

Feels like I've lost a family member. Really all I can say.

(SPOILER)Cried myself to sleep last night

It's sad to think people who impacted your childhood so much to die of old age. I guess god finally beamed him up. RIP Mr. Nimoy.

RIP Spock. :(

Leonard was the best part of one of my favorite commercials:

Rest in peace Mr. Spock and Master Xehanort. You have really succeeded in becoming one with the heart of many people to become immortal. Live forever and prosper within them and wherever you are now.

Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope. :onoes:
