Well the three great friends are reunited now: Ray Harryhausen, Ray Bradbury and Forry Ackerman. Each amazing separately, but watching them together, even as octogenarians, was like watching three middleschoolers geeking out about the great old films. Of the three, Harryhausen was the gentlest and humblest. He was very slow to understand the profound and lasting effect he has had on all the great genre filmmakers of our time, even after all of the tributes heaped upon him by Spielberg, Lucas, Del Toro, Jackson, Cameron, etc., etc.
On a selfish note, I hope his passing will stimulate a broad rediscovery of his creations and we'll see plenty of new and old resin kits to celebrate his amazing career!
