We're sad to hear that Mr. Spock - Leonard Nimoy passed away into the next Universe today. He was 83. Live Long and Prosper!

I just wanted to put it on the record that the guy who wrote this commercial is Anthony Atamanuik, a Trek fan who grew up in Boston. He loved Leonard Nimoy from childhood, and was amazed and thrilled that Leonard agreed to sing the Bilbo Baggins song! Anthony created and starred in The President Show for Comedy Central, and is currently playing Sean in What We Do In The Shadows.

Thanks for the video. It was nice seeing the old and new Spocks together. When ST:OS first aired, I got to stay up a little later to watch the show with my father and older brother. My younger brother eventually became a fan while watching the reruns. I will be starting on Medicare in a little over a month, and I'm still a fan, after almost 6 decades. 😊 I even named my rolling walker Warp 9 😂🛸

It seems that Nimoy improvised that re-enactment of Spock's death scene at the end. At first, it just seems like a good laugh. However, if you think about it, this commercial must have been made when he already knew he was dying of COPD. It gives that improvisation a different dimension, like a spookier dimension. Maybe he had his own death in mind when he improvised it.
