Is it too late to add ST 2, 4, or 6 to the marathon?

If that's too much to ask, is there any way we could just watch a good old episode of ST sometime during the marathon?

At the very least, we'll get some Leonard Nimoy trailers, right?

Is there any way at all you'd have access to show an old episode of In Search Of...?

I am all for this suggestion. I completely understand if it's too late to change the film line-up, but some sort of tribute to Mr. Nimoy seems to be required.

It's a bit too late to add or sub another film into the lineup (unless Joss Whedon comes calling.) But rest assured, we have a Nimoy tribute in the works.

Doesn't Leonard Nimoy have a walk-on non-speaking role in THEM? That's always the go-to movie when a print doesn't arrive, right?

Yes, we saw a nice 35mm print of THEM! at the Boston marathon two weeks ago today. Nimoy's role is a tad longer than I had remembered it - he has a line or two. It sent a pleasant little ripple through the crowd. Of course, who was to know that he would gone so soon after, but, it made for a nice foreshadowing tribute.

If I never have to hear THEM again, it will be too soon.

Not see. I'm happy to watch the movie again.

But the sound... oh, the sound...

There's always "Zombies of the Stratosphere", one of the old Commondo Cody serials. Nimoy played an invading alien in it.

Plus of course, the Oldsmobile commercial he did with his daughter.

Just watched Quality of Mercy, Nimoy's Twilight Zone appearance. It was part of an oldies channel remembrance. Nimoy plays a war weary soldier. His is the first face you see in the episode but only has has about 8 words of dialogue. Should you want a tribute you should probably go elsewhere.

We could always get a copy of Nimoy's music video for the "Ballard of Bilbo Baggins". I just listened to it like three minutes ago and it got me sad that Leonard is no longer with us. He has gone where no man has gone before. (Except for DeForrest Kelly, James Doohan, and Gene Roddenberry, of course).
