Stan Winston RIP

Remember Terminator 2 when it first came out? It broke the Special Effects mould (at that time). How about Aliens? Galaxy Quest? Jurassic Park? How about Predator or the latest Iron Man?

Stan Winston is the most talented special effects guy around. Without him, the magic in the movies would definitely be as exciting as watching paint dry.

And so, on 15th og June 2008, Stan Winston passed away peacefully in his sleep after battling years of multiple myeloma (or Kahler's disease), a form of cancer. He was in his early sixties.

Damn. I don't know what else to say.
