The man known for some of cinema&rsqu♛o;s greatest special effects has died. Stan Winston, whose amazing creations graced the likes of Aliens, Terminator 2, Jurassic Park and, most recently, Iron Man, lost his battle with my🎃eloma in the early hours of Sunday.

His contribution to cinema has been huge, with Oscars sitting on his shelves and his easygoing personality made a huge impact on those he worked with. “Stan was a fearless and courageous artist/inventor and for many projects, I rode his cutting edge from ted🌼dy bears to aliens to dinosaurs. My world would not have been the same without Stan, Steven Spielberg told Variety. “What I will miss most is his easy laugh every time he said to me, ‘Nothing is impossible.’”

Variety has his full obituary . Thanks for everything✅ Stℱan – you’ll be sorely missed.
