    He was also pretty much the last of his kind. The passing of Stan Winston leaves a major void in the realm of physical effects. Stan took the proverbial reigns from Ray Harryhausen. Who takes over for Stan Winston?


    The answer is no one.

    Wow. Didn't even know he was sick. I read an article the other where he was talking about the new Terminator movie. Sad.
