soag Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Oh no this man is a legend, If it wasnt for his excellent work in his field, many of the films we al know and love would have not been possible may he rest in peace.
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 What an interesting life this guy must have had. I'm pretty happy he received recognition for films like Aliens and Jurassic Park, as he contributed to overly outstanding films. Rest in Peace.
Jimbob Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 RIP, u will be remembered for your good work. Without it, films like T2, Jurassic Park and Iron man may not have looked so good and realistic
Jonnas Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 R.I.P., Stan Winston For the immense help in turning movies like Jurassic Park and Aliens into what they are today.
The Bard Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 I've just got the urge to go watch Jurassic Park. Fucking awesome film
