Very sad news, tho 92 is not too bad an innings;

While he hasn't made a movie in years, he was always a must see on any of his panels at conventions;

saw him at Comic Con many, many times over the years

A giant of cinema has left the building. His creations animated billions of childhood dreams.

Another era that has ended.

 

CGI will never be as magical as Harryhausen´s vision.

A sad loss to the industry, but that's one heck of a legacy left over!

 

Sheer creative genius.

 

RIP.
