Man, he was one of the greats. Still love his work in Jason and The Argonauts and Clash of the Titans.

Indeed, one of the greats, he made the impossible seem possible at a time when the technology just wasn't there like it is today. I was fortunate to meet him at SDCC back in 2006, and I'm really glad I decided to go along to that presentation. It wasn't big, but everyone in the room was there because of him.

i didn't know how to express the feelings i had, so, i drew this



when i felt this wasn't enough, i actually made some effort and made a tribute video.

never realize how much of an impact he made in my childhood. certainly i wouldn't have a love of monsters and creatures without his movies.

Always sad when a legend dies.

Hopefully he's up there partying with his pal Ray Bradbury.
