Description It's true.
In the year 1986, the Shelly Duvall's Faerie Tale Theater aired the story of 'Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp', starring Leonard Nimoy as the Evil Moroccan Magician and James Earl Jones as the Genie of the Lamp, and the whole thing was directed by Tim Burton. 
Therefore, in a way, Mr. Spock DID meet Darth Vader (sort of) in another universe created by Tim Burton! 
Seriously. . . mind. . . blown

It's one of the best.  The whole series is amazing with all the super stars in it.  They have Vincent Price as the Magic Mirror, Billy Crystal as the Pig with the Birck house, Jeff Goldblum as the Big Bad Wolf, Christopher Reeve as Sleeping Beauty's prince, Matthew Broderick as Cinderella's prince, and oh so many more.

Something equally as mind-blowing:


In "Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep", you have Mark Hamill voicing Master Eraqus and Leonard Nimoy voicing Master Xehanort in what is essentially like a Jedi temple, only with Keyblades.

My sister and I watched that and were laughing at how geeky awesome this scene is. Also, technically, Spock PWNS Darth Vader!

LOL, true.

Additionally, James Earl Jones played both the Genie of the Lamp and the Genie of the Ring (like in the original tale of Aladdin)...and like Robin Williams later on, James was pretty damn funny as the Lamp Genie. ^^
