You do get a bigger flame that way.
Spock's fate
- Thread starter Kokomo
- Start date
And then they use the transporter to de-age old Spock and he takes young Spock's place!
It's brilliant!
Can I please use this in my sig?! That was priceless!
Old Spock will get his head caught in a mechanical rice-picker and die a slow and painful death.
Yes, that's what I was referring to. Nimoy doesn't look that bad in real life but the pics I've seen of Spock make him look about 200 years old.
I don't need him to die.
I just wouldn't find a final, irreversible, heroic death to be a bad idea at all.
Your idea of sunset riding Spock could work just as well.
I'm flexible.
True the Spock make-up does make him look really really old, but imo he doesn't look too good in real life either
I've got mixed views. I understand those who say that his death would be much more of a send off than him simply going off into the sunset, but I am conscious of the counter argument regarding TWOK's death scene. To be honest I'm not so sure he should die again, on his own, without any of the TOS crew (Kirk & McCoy Prime of you will). We'll just have to see.
One thing to note though is that Orci & Kurtzman said recently that when they told Nimoy of their plan he got misty eyed and had to spend hours thinking about whether or not to be in the picture so I figure that he must have some pretty powerful and memorable scenes in the movie, and a death scene would certainly be a candidate for the emotion factor.

Yup. Shatner does as well. Hell, you look at Shater and he looks like other people look in their late fifties, early sixties. No way would I put him at 78 if I didn't already know.
I'm happy to look like that when I'm 80. Although, I think I'd shave off the stubble and do something about the thickness of the eyebrows.

ultimately, when I'm 80 it doesn't really matter how my face looks. If it shows my age or not.
I just hope I'm relatively healthy, mobile and active .
And Nimoy luckily seems to be all those things.
Yes, Shatner is holding up very good and his age doesn't show.

You don't kill a Legend, (I'm looking at you GEN) but if they do/did I am sure it will be a glorious and fitting end worthy of the life the character has lived.
I hope he lives on, though.

How about this, courtesy of the ending of The Simpsons monorail episode?
Nimoy: My work here is done.
Barney: But you didn't do anything!
Nimoy: Didn't I? [beams away]
Just have Kirk, or better yet, McCoy deliver Barney's line, and there's Spock's exit from the movie.

I've heard a rumor that some (presumably already established) character dies...And I was thinking Nimoy's Spock would be the logical conclusion...But in light of Nimoy saying he's willing to entertain a return, maybe not. I'm stumped.
