Who Was Stan Winston and why YOU Should Care




In an era of push button digital effects and mind numbing gore movies, the are/were Visual GrandMasters, those who knew how to manipulate the film and make it something special, something amazing. If you look at the Alien Hoax Video from last week, it’s easy to realize that any schmuck with a cheap computer and a camcorder can do crap like that.
Stan Winston wasn’t afraid to scare you, to amaze you, or to entrance you.
Jurassic Park
Predator
Aliens
Galaxy Quest
Batman Returns
Edward Sissorhands
AI
Iron Man
What all this films have in common are 2 things
1. All were touched by the hand of Stan Winston
2. They all brought you to another reality, and in doing so brought a reality in the darkened theatre that no one else could.
Films, as we know them, are now forever changed.
