This is one of those rare scenes where we can see a character at both the beginning AND the end of his character arc in the same moment. Spock Prime has reconciled his human and Vulcan halves and is comfortable with both while the younger Spock is still wrestling with the fact that he is a child of two worlds and that one of those worlds has been virtually obliterated. Time travel stories can be confusing, but they can also give awesome moments like this one!

[@davecrupel2817]

Time traveling to your past self, *if done right,* can be the most helpfull thing both of you can ever have. Not reccomended, but that small sliver of hope can be hope the world over.

[@MadameDeForklift]

And especially in this case, Spock Prime is a -POSSIBILITY- not a certainty. It gives hope for the character to gain balance and synergy without knee-capping the story-building tension. ...but then Into Darkness made death a mere inconvenience so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@asheer9114]

Actually... so called Prime Universe from which Spock came is still there (as Picard series and photo of the original ToS crew in their movie uniforms (which would NOT exist in first place if said prime timeline would dissapear) showed in Beyond Darkness proved) when Kelvin timeline is kind of paraler Universe to it.

[@randomamerican5065]

Speakjng of the two worlds part, my favorite quote that spock says is “seeing as i am half Human that makes Earth the only home i have left”. Although he’s spent his entire life on Vulcan he has compassion for Earth because it is technically his home too.

@Daniel Appleton There was this old twilight zone. This guy stopped on the side of a road next to an empty gas station. Hearing the unmistakable sound behind the gas station he naturally followed it. As he slowly approached he saw a man somewhat blocking the road. He recognized the carnival and the man. It was his dad. They stopped to chat and not too far off in the distance a young boy was playing. It was himself. He asked his dad if he could go say something to him. His dad thought long and hard and replied "No son, let him be. You've had your summer let him have his". That older man himself respected his dad's wishes and told him he loved him. Something he always wanted to say but never got a chance. They hugged and and dad replied the same. He walked away and the carnival disappeared. Best lesson I've ever remembered from a TV show. If I ever go back in time.. I've had my summer.

[@philswaim392]

Only Spock could convince Spock to do what feels right. His mother took forever to finally convince old Spock to embrace emotions healthily when needed. She saw the benefit of emotion tempered by logic and logic informed by emotion. Spock just taught himself this lesson without all the hardship he would need to face to learn it otherwise. And it def came in handy when facing Khan. Spock finally unloaded emotion

[@BogeyTheBear]

Spock held that realization in _The Undiscovered Country_ when he inferred to Lieutenant Valeris that logic is an _instrument_ to obtain wisdom-- it is not the _product_ of wisdom. I would go further and conject that _emotion_ is yet another instrument in that pursuit. Well-timed utilization of both logic and passion (with a little guidance from your friends) serve to find that wisdom.

Not to mention Nimoy was himself directing tv & film when Abrams was still in high school.

[@ashontahuddleston6663]

You should look at the bloopers for st4 and st5. In the fourth movie, McCoy says, "Well, nobody's perfect." Spock ponders a couple of seconds, gets an irritated look on his face and responds, "Oh, yeah?" In the fifth movie, Kirk says, "Let's see what she's got." Sulu responds, "Aye sir." As Kirk shifts in his seat, Spock says, "Get your hand off my leg." Hilarious on both counts!

[@thedefinitionisthis]

Emmett Krantz I know. This scene from the '09 flick. His appearance in "Into Darkness" totally cheapened his appearance here. Like, this was his way of just letting the new crew do their thing. And the movie itself wanted to forge its own identity away from the original 60's continuity...... all of a sudden you have Spock asking Spock Prime what they did. Such a cheat. That basically suggests that if this new crew has ANY problems, they can just ask Spock Prime what they did in the situation. If there's any good that comes from Nimoy's passing (and this is in NO WAY a disrespet to him), it's that the writers can no longer rely on using his character for major plot points. Maybe it'll force them to come up with something fresh for these characters to deal with.

[@ObligedUniform]

Rob C Well by Spock Prime's own admission he fully intended to stay out of the affairs and let them forge their own fate. But Khan was such a harbinger of damage that he felt compelled to give them the advice given he was considered their greatest adversary. particularlly with the rapid advancement as a consequence of Nero and Spock coming back in time, had Khan kept a hold on the Vengeance he would have reaved uncalculable damage across space. That said this is indeed a fantastic 'farewell' a few years ahead of schedule.

[@Jungoguy]

This scene is very symbolic: Leonard Nimoy was finally leaving the legendary role that he had played for almost fifty years, and passes the torch onto Zachary Quinto. Now he is gone. RIP Leonard Nimoy, you have earned it. As for you, Quinto, live up to the role of Spock, and Live Long and Prosper

ST-VI "Spock, you want to know something? Everybody's Human." "I find that remark.... Insulting." Nimoy brought an incredible character to life, an excellent character arc, and that one thing that is so important to a main character: Their discovery of their self makes us look at our own lives and motivations.

The passing of the Torch....

[@Ari-ij3cz]

I was looking for a comment like this. This whole scene felt like it was passing on the torch, from the old generation to the new one.

[@pupeno3]

"I cannot deprive you of the revelation of all that you could accomplish together. Of the friendship that defined you both." Melts my heart.

[@JnEricsonx]

And then I wanna cry.

[@WillieManga]

I can't even begin to describe how awesome this scene is. It's awesome how this scene essentially combines the new generation with the classic generation. It's awesome how Spock sets his time travel brother down the path of coming to terms with his humanity. It's awesome to see how Spock Prime has developed over the years. And it's awesome seeing the two give each other the peace sign! Granted it's a Vulcan symbol, but it's iconic all the same.

[@darinbartosch1037]

Yes.

[@dwyekei8399]

R.I.P Leonnard Nimoy Live long and prosper.

[@tufty1990]

That moment at 0:53 is just so perfect, plays with the character without damaging it, Spock wouldn't lie but found the grey area and it's just such a brilliant piece of writing that kind of 'who me? never' kind of thing.

Leonard Nimoy has such a rare warmth. Seeing him as Spock Prime brings a lot of comfort to my not so inner child.

You have been and always shall be our friend Mr. Spock. RIP...

I was 14 years old when the original Star Trek series first aired. It was something amazing and new and terrific fun. I can't watch the above very nicely accomplished clip without finding tears in my eyes. Farewell to the old guard, welcome to the new, and as Spock says, good luck!

[@jacobsinger874]

Leonard Nimoy really takes it home... the actors from the original star trek have so far lived amazingly long lives... a lot longer than any other show of the era... I wonder if continued interest from fans keeps them socially engaged and always moving.. that's the answer to long life... happyness... staying active... people and expecting you to

[@michaelmckinnon1591]

Some from that era lived to be older even though they're not with us anymore of course back then a lot of actors were veterans of WWII, including the actors who played the original McCoy and Scotty in Star Trek TOS

[@mitsukai7192]

I'll never forget seeing this in theaters with my family. My dad grew up as a hard-core trekkie and I was new to it. So in the scene where Leonard Nimoy first shows up, my dad chuckles while sitting next to me, then leans over and says "That's the REAL Spock" before continuing to watch the film. 😂😂

[@Gumbier_Than]

I sound as bad as him when watching Ghostbusters Afterlife. I was excitedly telling him about the cameos. T'was magic as this was too.

[@TTony-tu6dm]

As someone who saw TOS in its original run, I have to say this: JJ nailed it. While I didn’t agree with all his choices, I have to say that it’s clear he understood the closeness and feelings that people have for these characters. I support him and the films he made, and hopefully there are more to come.

[@TheNewEmphinix]

RIP Leonard Nimoy. I cry not only for his death, but also for my uncle who died of lung cancer and was such a great fan of the original show. Hi older sister (my mom) got me into TNG and I also saw the old show.

[@EchoesAct4]

"An act of faith... one that I hope you will repeat in the future at Starfleet." Yeah Spock, way to throw Kirk under the bus at the beginning of Into Darkness!

[@ILuvSmexyShowgirls]

I'm guessing Spock was still trying to find his place in Starfleet, in his friendship with Kirk, and his own future when "Into Darkness" happened. He still didn't have complete faith in all three and therefore could not defy his own Vulcan sense of logic.

[@victorpradha9946]

Yes, they clumsily tried to show that young Spock was still clinging to his Vulcan origins in terms of strict honesty, complete candor and complete obedience to the "rules". In the original series, Nimoy's Spock used to display these qualities by citing the astronomical odds they were facing, or citing how what they're doing is a complete violation of Starfleet regulations...esp the Prime Directive. Here they had Spock literally "betray" Kirk, when in fact, Kirk was indulging Spock's plan (itself a violation of the prime directive) to save the indigenous people of that planet by averting the volcano eruption. THIS Spock was doing it because Vulcan was destroyed and this Spock did NOT want to see it happen to other species. Nonetheless, this Spock did indeed throw Kirk under the bus...when he outted Kirk's actions (in saving Spock's life no less) to Pike!

[@DaftSwank]

Goodbye, Mr. Nimoy ... We will all miss you dearly ...

[@nemo7782]

RIP Leonard Nimoy.

[@cjkalandek996]

I like that, because of how time travel works in this specific continuity, they don't worry about the dangers of meeting your future self. Because they openly acknowledge that this film takes place in an alternate reality separate from the original series and movies, so it's possible Red Matter time travel doesn't necessarily work like how it does in _Back to the Future_ or _Terminator._ Probably works the same way that it worked in _Avengers: Endgame_ and the _Dragon Ball_ series; multiverse theory. So, if anything happened to Kelvin timeline Spock, I doubt it'd have an affect on Spock Prime, because he's more from a different reality than just another time.

[@mrcritical6751]

I believe Discovery outright confirmed this, they say there are three universes that run alongside one another, The Prime Timeline, The Mirror Universe and The Kelvin Timeline

[@manuelorozco7760]

A truly heartfelt passing the torch from the original Spock to the new Spock! May Leonard Nimoy rest in peace and happy 50th anniversary to Star Trek. I sure hope Star Trek Beyond will be dedicated to Nimoy's memory

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

Spock is one of the greatest characters ever, regardless of the media. Just amazing.

[@wv1swlamatswl523]

Of all the actors I've watched over 50 years, Leonard Nimoy, and the character he brought so much life to, and in his own way influencing some of mine, especially my imagination as a child, he comes first above all others. Each of the original cast played a part in that as well because each had something different in the characters they portrayed that appealed to my young mind back in those days. But Mr. Nimoy / Spock came first... First star to the right, and straight on 'till morning. RIP...

[@neilpountney9414]

What a legend Leonard Nimoy was/is/and always will be. RIP Sir you were a Titan

[@woodelfproductions]

I was 8 when this movie came out and my dad took me and my little brother to see it in the cinema. While I have since watched and fallen in love with all the older Trek media this movie still holds a special place in my heart as the first Star Trek thing I ever watched (or at least remember watching).

[@KryptonianChaos1]

Amazing how much more personality Ambassador Spock has. His speech patterns, mannerisms, makes his younger self look like a fucking robot.

[@KryptonianChaos1]

Daniel Appleton Definitely.

[@chrismc410]

well it took Ambassador Spock 150+ years, death, a forced mind meld with McCoy regeneration on Genesis, refusuion of his consciousness, retraining of his mind regaining lost memories, and fighting with his father all his life until said father died to do it. You'd learn to get comfortable with yourself too after all that.

[@chrismc410]

***** Dying and resurrection and all the fun during and after said dying and resurrection of Older Spock is more than enough for most people to rethink a lot of things about life.

[@howardpower]

I don't know if you've ever watched the original series or the original Star Trek movies, but Spock was true to himself. The Spock from the future was EXACTLY the way young Spock was. Extremely logical to a fault and disciplined. All those many, many, many years with Kirk and crew mates have made him who he is today or as you see in the new movie....how he is in the future. That was a great ass scene.

[@SantomPh]

considering Spock and Data met each other and had a sort of kinship, you are not far off.

[@TheCoolProfessor]

We miss you Leonard. Say hi to Gene, DeForest and James for us!

[@PhoenixPrime]

Rest in peace, Mr. Leonard Nimoy. You have been, and always shall be, our friend. You have touched our hearts and souls over the years, and you shall not be forgotten. You have, as Ambassador Spock would say, lived long and prospered. And in our memories, you shall always live and prosper. That is a promise.

Seeing Leonard Nimoy here, hearing him talk, something in my heart hurts so violently and aches more than I could ever express.

[@NealX]

People who knock these films actually miss how cleverly and faithfully they incorporate earlier Trek canon, such as in this scene, with Spock encouraging "an act of faith," a theme that was introduced in _Star Trek VI_, and his acceptance of his emotions in the TNG episode "Unification" - as well as his epiphany at the end of _Star Trek The Motion Picture_ that "pure logic" is not enough. One criticism of the reboot that is valid (I don't deny there are many), it's the fact that they actually mine old canon too much and fail to come up with enough new material to not feel recycled.

[@TimberwolfEnt]

I loved Star Trek 2009.. and I'm a 40 year old school Trek fan even before Next Gen. I like Next Gen the series, but the movies were weak and I didn't watch the other shows (Ds9, Enterprise etc) - Into Darkness tried too hard to jam Khan in and all that but it's still decent, like you said they need to be their own new world now since they created one.

[@ALscience]

Old school Star Trek fan as well. I grew up with it. I think they did an awesome job with the reboot. And yes, now they can head into new directions.

[@akiuop123]

So you diss people who knock these films, whilst also knocking the films? Ooook. You can say a million bad things about the old movies if you take off your ultra-fan/nostalgia glasses. The fact people still like them shows that even with flaws, a movie can be great. Imo these new ones are great. Long time fan speaking.

[@NickPiers]

I think that's what bothered me most about Into Darkness. They had a great opportunity to take this new universe and expand on it, take it in new directions, show us something we haven't seen before. Instead, they did a lazy, modern rehashing of Wrath of Khan, complete with far too many blatant nods and references. Worse, when people asked if they were doing Khan in the sequel, they adamantly denied it, saying they were doing something entirely new. Even though everyone KNEW they were clearly doing Khan. What a load of bull.

[@masterpenguin8472]

Nick Piers Yeah, but they're still good films.

[@Circuitssmith]

This is one of those beautiful film and tv moments when you can see the actor speaking through the character. He talks about a friendship that defines _him,_ he talks about _his_ customary farewell. I recall the 50th anniversary episode of Doctor Who where Tom Baker and Matt Smith are talking, and Tom goes “If I were you, ohhhhh… if I were you. Perhaps I was you. Or, perhaps, you were me?”

[@rebeccarebeccaa2515]

I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Nemoy in 1989 by accident. I was visiting Universal studios and he was there for a speaking engagement? Im not sure but i know i didn't know he was going to be there and i was so happy to see him and went to listen to him speak. He was the only star trek actor I had not seen up till that point. My mother took us to a lot of Star Trek conventions when I was a child.

[@NostroDispater]

I too had a chance encounter with him... I delivered a bunch of furniture to his house in Incline Village, and he was so happy to recieve it, he came down to sign the bill!😃👍

[@jscordoba3]

My Mother was at a charity event in LA years ago and he was there. She asked him if she called me if he'd leave a message, to which he agreed. I was supposed to be at work but was sick that day so I picked up. I was giddy like a little kid when I realized who it was and I think he got a chuckle out of the reaction. He was very nice. We talked for just a minute and at the end he said "Live long and prosper, Jackson". I just about dropped to the floor. It would have been nice to have a message from him to go back and listen to, but the memory and experience to get to talk to him even for a minute was far more valuable. I'll never forget it.

[@morbius109]

A trailblazer, an icon, a singular master of his craft...he delighted and entertained us, all while showing us the wonderful intertwining of Vulcan logic with Human empathy and ingenuity. He guided us, inspired us, and demonstrated the kind of hopeful, limitless future we may yet have in space. He was a friend, a mentor, a teacher, and a student of the ways of the universe. And he will always have a special place in the hearts of those of us who grew up watching his journeys among the stars. RIP Leonard Nimoy...you will be dearly missed. May your legacy live long and prosper.
