| Has anyone heard this yet? He passed away a couple of days ago. http://www.hollywood.com/news/Acclaimed_Hollywood_Effects_Artist_Dead_at_62/5256857 | Quote: | Oscar-winning special effects and makeup artist Stan Winston, whose best-known work includes the Terminator and Jurassic Park movies, has died at age 62, his studio said on Monday.
Winston,
a leading figure in Hollywood imagery who helped craft some of modern
cinema's most breathtaking creatures, died at home on Sunday surrounded
by family after a seven-year struggle with multiple myeloma, a cancer
of blood plasma cells, a spokeswoman for the Stan Winston Studio said.
Having collaborated with filmmaker James Cameron on the terrifying monsters of Aliens and the killer cyborgs of The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day, some of Winston's most recent work was on display in Marvel Studios' superhero blockbuster Iron Man. |

| Wow 62 is a bit too young to die. I sure hope he had the Lord with him when he went.
