I was reading the blog of director McG on the new Terminator movie (starring Christian Bale)...thought this was worthwile:

From June 17th
Stan Winston passed away this past weekend. What an unbelievable talent.

Think of everything that came from the mind of that man. Aliens. Jurassic Park. Iron Man. Terminator.

I wish all of you could go check out the shop that he built. There's a
meeting room where all of his creations encircle you. It feels like the
first time you went to Disneyland or saw Star Wars. It's an unforgettable
moment.

Most of all, Stan was a good guy who was in it for all the right reasons. He
loved what he did.

Stan confided in me once, that he created imaginary monsters as a child to
keep him company. He said he felt like the only kid in the world who did
this. Little did he know his childhood friends would come to be the heroes
of millions. You are not alone Stan, the fruit of your imagination will be
with us forever.

It is a real honor to have had the opportunity to work with Stan Winston. I
intend to dedicate this film to his memory.

McG


I'm guessing the next Terminator movie is going to seriously overshadow the last one. In the meantime, a Monster Squad remake is in the works...sorry Stan. They're ruining Max Payne too. I should play that again.

Nice. Except Bush actually DID do all those things, and the Obamas didn't...

Stole the idea anyway! :-D
