Re: Stan Winston Dead?!?

Oh man, it is sounding true. He was still so young. He must have been hiding this really well. I think I'm going to be sick.

Its true. My God, what will we do now?

"Stan Winston, dead at 62; Oscar-winning visual effects artist suffered from multiple myeloma
11:57 AM PT, Jun 16 2008
Stan Winston, an Oscar-winning visual effects artist, has died at age 62.

Winston died at home Sunday evening after a seven-year struggle with multiple myeloma, according to a rep from Stan Winston Studio.

"Stan died peacefully at home surrounded by family," a spokeswoman said.

Winston won three visual effects Oscars and earned multiple nominations. His first Oscar was for James Cameron's "Aliens" (1986). Winston later won for "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" (1992) and 1993's "Jurassic Park."

In lieu of flowers, Winston's family is requesting that donations be made to his charities of choice, a list of which will be posted here shortly.

It did point out it was a peaceful death at home with his family. That's something I suppose...

Wondering when LA Times would show this. I did a search and couldn't find anything a few minutes before they actually posted this.

Now I am sooooooo sad...

Re: Stan Winston Dead?!?

Truly a sad loss. An amazing artist and a pioneer, not to mention an enormous inspiration to many of us. The man was a creative and visual genius.

That came as a shock.

What a loss for his family and the movie industry.

May he rest in peace. And lets hope his successors have the same talent he had.
