Here are some more information for Nimoy Star:

Star Trek's Mr. Spock: Leonard Nimoy

            To anyone who is interested in Leonard Nimoy trivia, there is another name which is almost as commonly associated with the face of this man as his own – that name is of course Mr. Spock, the character that Nimoy portrayed in the popular 1960's television show, Star Trek. Even though Star Trek was only on the air for a few years, a much shorter time than many of today's more popular television shows, the characters that were created in that short time have gone on to become among the most popular in American today. That original show spawned several other television programs including The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise, and of course nine feature films, including several in which Nimoy would reprise his character of Spock.

            Any Leonard Nimoy quiz is going to be mostly filled with questions about his portrayal of the half vulcan half human Spock, and so we will be sure to give that its due regard here. Did you know that the original show only ran for 80 episodes? While this was the origination of the character of Mr. Spock, Nimoy would continue to play the character several other times over the years, right up until today. He played the character in the Star Trek films I-VI, as well as also reprising the role again in the most recent film “Star Trek” released in 2009.

            Did you know that in addition to playing Mr. Spock on so many different occasions, Nimoy was also the director of a few of the Star Trek films? This is a little piece of Leonard Nimoy trivia that many who can only identify with him as his character are totally unaware of. He directed both Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home – which was, until the release of the new movie the most successful of any of the movies in the Star Trek franchise. His only other significant hit as a director was “Three Men and  Baby” which was actually the highest grossing film the year of its release.

            Did you know that Leonard Nimoy has also enjoyed considerable success in several other artistic arenas? He has released several recording albums, has published books of his photography, is a writer, including two autobiographies offering viewpoints of his reconciliation between himself and the character he is so famous for portraying, as well as being a published poet.

Are you going to boycott the new Star Trek movie?

I am because they asked Leonard Nimoy to appear, but they refused William Shatner.
I think they should find a role for any remaining original actor/actress before it is too late.

Go ahead and do what you want, but you will be missing a great movie. I guarantee you that both Nimoy and Shatner will be in the seats on opening night.
