The great genius Ray Harryhausen has passed away.

This guy just might quietly be the most influential person in film in the last 75 years. Yes. I said 75 years.

 

What kid in the 70's and 80's didn't break out a Super 8 and try to make their own stop motion film?

 

Totally loved all of his work. Some samples:

I got to meet him in 2003, what a gracious and humble guy he was. The show I'm working at next week just announced that we're showing a bunch of his work on a super 8 mm projector Saturday night, should be a lot of fun. Look on YouTube for his test footage of the martian from War of the Worlds opening up his cylinder, pissed that the movie never got made, I'd way rather see a Harryhausen version that appeared to follow the books a little than the admittedly cool one that actually got made in the 50s.

Found out about it in 95 on a business trip and have gone back every year. Started working for them in 04. It's all about scifi and horror etc. models, effects, art, got to meet many many heroes there, and it's always a blast to be there. People come from all over the country and the world for it. Next year will be the 25th anniversary of the show.

    • 100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.  
    • It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
    • In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
