Still, one of the best commercials EVER! Love this. Thank you, Leonard, for a lifetime of excellent performance. Your portrayal of Mr. Spock is now permanently woven and etched into not just American society, but world society and lexicon. You are missed, Fine Sir. (And, Zachary, you do the role justice, as well. Thank you.)

I love this commercial. The Bilbo Baggins reference is from an album that Nimoy did in the 60's dealing with the Hobbit way before they made other movies about the character. They did a great job with this.

This was a string of great gags. Far more effective than an infomercial. The humor was perfectly aimed at a select group of people. It was a mini-show more than a commercial, and yet, still sold the audi brand perfectly. At first, I found the end anti-climatic as well, but then, as I watched it again, and again, I found it to be perfect. The personalities were the sell of the name brand, "fascinating" as an audi emblem drove away on the self driving car -- sold their technological prowess.

@TheAutoChannel 3 жыл бұрын

@@luckystarpiano It's an inside joke. Our neighbors are extremely well known in our city among the Armenian community, and so whenever my wife or I meet an Armenian we ask if they know them. They inevitably do, with great affection, and they then know who we are because they usually know us from our home next door. Anyway, thanks for the reply. Have a great day and much continued success. I'm sending you a note via your KZfaq email address.

This is still a great commercial. The two ‘Spocks’ really did seem to become great friends during the filming of Star Trek and Leonard seemed to become somewhat akin to a second father to Zachary. Zachary even went on to host the same show, ‘In Search Of’, as Leonard once did! It’s a shame that Leonard Nimoy passed too soon; may he rest in peace knowing that, should humanity last so long, people five hundred years from now will probably know who he was.
