@MichaelSHartman7 жыл бұрын
If memory serves, Vulcan is a hot arid planet. There might be an even higher level of ultraviolet light than Earth, so one might expect the majority of Vulcans to be dark skinned. McCoy has remarked that Spock has green blood which would be an undertone for his skin. If he has red blood from his mother, the red and green might make him even browner. It's okay if he has red blood as long as he doesn't wear a red shirt. 😉

The beauty of the Spock character is that he surprises you with his "human" statements, like sarcasm and bickering and one-liner zingers. Since the character is supposed to have/show no emotion, when he does show emotion, which he does all the time, then you are surprised and delighted. It's a case of lowering your expectations and then you're easier to surprise and delight. Also when something happens like he kills Kirk and then finds him alive and is smiling, the emotion is that much more profound, such that the incident is the talk of all of us for decades to come.

The Star Trek series's following ST TOS had better FX but that cant compare to the characters and character interaction of the original Star Trek. Nimoy was brilliant. And people may pick on Shatners over the top acting for Kirk, but could you really picture Kirk any other way? NO... didnt think so. There was no overacting to it, that was Kirk and as I sit down and watch TOS from first to last ep all over again after a long long time, this time Im really appreciating Captain Kirk and Shatners delivery of him. Yes even right down to cadence of his lines LOL. I grew up on TOS and never even noticed it till I saw all the jabs (some more lighthearted then others) all over the media through the years about it. But Spock was my hero though growing up. He rocks!

Star Scream... I felt the same. Spock was my fave of all. Also, when I was growing up watching ST, I never noticed that Kirk was over the top until years later when people were pointing it out. Shatner was the best Kirk, and Nimoy was the best Spock. I know that time is over and I appreciate the newbies but I do miss the orginals.

Star Scream- Come on... Over the top doesn't even begin to describe his: "I'm losing command," mantra in the lift with Spock. (From the third season episode, "And The Children Shall Lead.") Stick a fork in Shatner for that one. Talk about overdone hams!!!

Isaac Asimov wrote a piece about how surprised he was when his daughter said that Spock was "dreamy". He has been raised on how jocks are manly and nerds are wimpy and girls like manly men, and then suddenly the most nerdy scientist in all of fiction is a heart-throb? The idea that science is sexy, that intelligence and logic is attractive, was strange but comforting to him. People talk about how Kirk was such a womanizer, which is not even supported by the series. Actually it was Spock who was the serial heartbreaker. And it seems the fans understood why.

Chekov: "Nosy enough to smell them." Spock: "That's illogical ensign. Odors can not travel through the vacuum of space." Chekov: "I was making a little joke sir." Spock: "Extremely little ensign." The look on Chekov's face was priceless XD

I understand that Nimoy was an accomplished actor/director with many parts to his credit. So.I don't mean to insult him when I say he will always be the real Spock. Other actors may succeed him in the role but they will be nothing more than pale copies of what he started and established in the role The New Age Spock has nothing on the one and only Spock.
