Leonard Nimoy dies, aged 83

Source

Quote:
US actor Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr Spock in the cult sci-fi series Star Trek, has died at the age of 83 in Los Angeles, his family has said.

His son, Adam, said he died of end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on Friday morning.

Nimoy had a long career as both an actor and director.

However he was best known for his portrayal of the half-human, half-Vulcan character in both the TV franchise and series of films.
Undeniably one of the greatest acting and Sci-fi icons of the last half-century. Gutted to hear this news, but not surprised after hearing he was admitted to hospital last week. At least he lived long and prospered.

Rest in Peace, Mr. Spock.

Pretty legitimately heartbroken over this.

God, this year's already declaring itself as bad as last year. Still not as hard a loss as Williams.

Wow, I am shocked to hear about this. Last year Robin Williams passed away and now Leonard Nimoy? *Sigh* At least they both lived an accomplished life.

I just woke up and wow. He was a pretty big icon of my childhood, and Star Trek was one of my favorite shows I would watch with my uncle and dad. It's so sad to hear, but at least he lived a full life. RIP Mr. Spock.

Oh... man... I knew Nimoy was in the hospital but I didn't expect it to actually take this turn. Rest well, Leonard, you've earned it.

Also, I think this solves my dilemma as to what show I should marathon for a while...

I never really watched much Star-whatever-it-is, so I mostly knew him as the guy who did a shitload of cameos and was William Bell in Fringe. It's kinda sad, yeah, but I feel I didn't have the emotional investment y'all did.

I know Markus was absolutely torn up about it.

I'm not shocked. Nor am I sad.

Nimoy lived an extremely full life, rich with accomplishment and quite long as well. Remember, he was 83, not 63 like Robin Williams.

The worst feeling is for all of us since we don't have him around anymore, to continue contributing to entertainment. I felt the same for Gary Owens when he died earlier this year, except in spite of how accomplished he was he's much more obscure than Nimoy.

Anyway, RIP Spock. You lived long and we prospered.

Or the X-blade?

It is very unfortunate to lose Nimoy since he was the voice of Xehanort up to this point, but now Square Enix will have to search for a new actor to replace him. RIP Spock, your limitless contributions will be remembered in our hearts.
