Leonard Nimoy - The Ballad Of Bilbo Baggins

SPECIAL FEATURES

Wednesday, June 11

by Captain



Due to the overwhelming response to the beyond excellent Rocketman, as performed by William Shatner, it seemed only fair to give his right hand man, Leonard Nimoy, his chance to walk down our memory lanes.

It was a time of innocence, a time where Ralph Bakshi and Peter Jackson had barely thought about unleashing hobbitses onto the silver screen.

But Bilbo Baggins was big in the sixties. Hobbitses were huge. The graiffito 'Frodo Lives!' adorned the US subways as a call to arms for the disenfranchised. And Star Trek (the original) was still on air.

It wouldn't be long before forces of popular culture combined to produce a masterpiece - and here it is in glorious technicolour. Enjoy.
