I was going to ask the same but I recognize his face from watching two-disc special editions of action films.

Fucking hell, Stan was a legend!

He was the man that brought the Endo Skeletons to life!

co-incidentally enough,im actually getting an endoskeleton face with flames around it tattoo'd on my right forearm tomorrow morning(done by quality tattoo artist wez4{of river freshney} at Blood Brothers tattoos in london,cant wait!)with the only added colour being a bit of red for the eyes.

i didnt realise its now gonna be a kind of post-tribute/homage to this awesome effects legend(of which i didnt recognise the name of,until just reading this thread properly.i recognised the face instantly from my various dvd extra features)
i'll post up a pic on the tattoo thread eventually.

R.I.P stan. he truly made some memorable creations.

Just be reading up on him on wikipedophile, tis a shame, he was obviously a very talented man and a special effects wizard who seemed to set the standard for sfx. I shall watch Terminator tonight in his honour. (I probably won't but, it's the thought that counts)

I was fortunate enough to see T2 in a cinema on Sunday, great experience. I hear that they are going to dedicate T4 to Stan, wonder who they will get to do his job on it.

Worst youtube video ever.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...
