It seems like we keep losing a lot of wonderful people lately, and I'm sorry to report on one more. We've lost the special effects and make-up guru Stan Winston now as well. Stan practically defined my childhood with his many creations (see below). I'll never forget as a little kid being blown away by the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park, the Terminator cyborgs, the creatures from the Alien movies, and so many more. He represented the true essence of the magic of cinema to me and millions of movie fans.
"Stan Winston is best known for working on such legendary films as Terminator, Jurassic Park, Predator, The Entity, The Thing, Edward Scissorhands, Constantine, Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines, Big Fish, Monster Squad, Congo, Darkness Falls, Jurassic Park: Lost World among many others. Winston won four Oscars in his career." |

| That was a BIG shock! I have been a fan of Stan Winston since my childhood, when I was once dreaming of doing special effects make-up. |
