The legend of Bilbo Baggins
Ever find something so astounding that you say to yourself, “I’ve got to post that on my blog!”. Just watch this YouTube video of Leonard Nimoy singing the ballad of Bilbo Baggins. Click on the photo below to go right to the video…and don’t watch it while eating your lunch at your desk. Watch for the Vulcan ears on the girls. Also, check out the Wikipedia entry on this video:
…Nimoy had read Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings and been exceedingly impressed by it. From approximately 1968 to 1973, several Nimoy and Star Trek fanzine writers and editors (notably Regina Marvinny’s Nimoyan Federation) discussed the idea of a live-action The Lord of the Rings film, with Nimoy playing Aragorn, and there was a brief letter-writing campaign…
Aragorn? I’m having trouble picturing that. Viggo Mortenson played that part very well.
It looks like Spock was infected by the spores again.
Frank! Good one!
I blame that whole video on LSD, frankly.
