I recently saw Leonard Nimoy and John De Lancie perform live Spock VS. Q and the sequel on Saturday night Jan 5 at a Slanted Fedora convention in the Meadowlands, NJ. Spock meets Q and Q meets Spock for the first time. I love the dialogue and the outwittings between Spock and Q, Unfortunately Leonard Nimoy may not be Spock ever again. So this cd collection just may be Leonard's last works as Spock.Leonard Nimoy and John De Lancie bring the characters to life! This is a great collection for any Star Trek Fan! Live Long And Prosper!
I think that all plot points worth mentioning have been covered in the official review so I will not go into depth about the plotlines of both CDs. However, I would like to express how unusually delightful it is to actually *listen* to this form of entertainment, which can best be described as a "play on tape".The dialouge here is superbly crafted in both the original and the sequel and there is nary a moment without playful and interesting banter between Spock and Q. For those of you who are die-hard fans of Star Trek and have never given a shot to listening (as opposed to watching) you MUST give this a shot.Both the orignal and the sequel lend themselves to repeated listenings.
When I bought the "Star Trek: The Spock vs. Q Collection" I knew I was in for something special but what I didn't know was how special it was going to be. This collection is absolutely hillarious, both Nemoy and DeLancie are in great form and the interaction between the two is not to be missed.Two masters at their craft.The story itself is great and so is the writing, the dialog is intelligent and the delivery is fast pace, you can tell they were having a lot fun performing together.As a bonus you get a cd with a short preview on the show, if the complete show is available on dvd please let me know I'd buy it in a second.Also I recommend the other five cds recorded by Alien Voices, you won't be sorry.
This was a gift for a friend. The report I got back was that it was hilarious. The set is a comical release of the different characters doing stand up comedy. This was an unexpected finding. When I purchased this set, I thought that it was a movie or show on disk. Finding out that it was a comedy was great for my friend! It was literally a perfect choice!!
These are audio dramas performed by john delancie as Q and leonard nimoy as spock.....There is aclip showing you some of them doing this routine infront of an audience.....disappointingly enough you wont be able to find that video anywhere....Anywise the audio is great and the story is interesting as the two characters debate...if you like star trek you will enjoy these.
I LOVE THIS! (In the spirit of full disclosure, I'm a total Spock fan, with Q right up there in close competition.) Hearing these two characters spar it out prompted many LOL moments -- not the least of which is an exchange which quickly morphs into a ***very*** recognizable comedy classic. (No spoilers, though -- you'll just have to listen for yourself.The writing is brilliant and the performances are five-star all the way.
It was okay as a audio book, but the in person on stage would have been better. The story content was good and engaging. I bought it to amuse myself on a road trip, but quickly got tired of the banter, did not listen to the second disk covering the separate evening and followup of the show.
I bought this based on my memory of hearing a portion of it years ago. Nimoy and de Lance deliver their dialog in a manner I think few other actors could. The two are truly stunning.The weakness is the script. The first part (Spock vs. Q) is fairly clever but bogged down with some needless Global Warming/anti-pollution ideology which the writer obviously shares but which doesn't help the production. Using the Spock character to deliver the message comes across as lecturing. Fortunately, de Lance pretty well saves the day, with Nimoy providing the classic character with a bit of mischief mixed in between. The two pander back and forth and do so in a manner that the script actually becomes secondary. Its a good example of how great actors can make anything seem good.... well, almost anything. The script from part 2 is abysmal. Its a continuation of part 1 but does nothing but drag the whole presentation into the gutter. Even Nimoy and de Lance seem to be feeling the strain. Their performances lose the spark they had earlier and the whole thing seems tired. As a listener, you also no longer feel the mystic of "Spock vs. Q". The first few minutes are fine, and honestly a bit fun, but after that, the presentation tanks and you are simply waiting for the whole thing to be over and done with.
