Ray Harryhausen, the man who pioneered the use of stop-motion special effects in Hollywood, has died at the age of 92, his family announced on Tuesday. In an era before CGI, Harryhausen used clay monsters and mythical creatures to bring life to live-action adventure films like Clash of the Titans, Valley of the Gwangi and Jason and the Argonauts. He inspired the likes of John Landis, Stephen Spielberg, Peter Jackson, Tim Burton and Guillermo Del Toro, and was awarded both a Bafta and a special Academy Award for his work

Not Harryhausen D: ugh I will forever love this guy’s creations. He’s who made me fall in love with the original Clash of The Titans when I was little. I still have my collection vhs of the movies he had a part in. Godspeed man :/

Why do my moments of clarity hide until I’m at the end of my rope?
Why does the courage, endurance, and hope that these moments inspire wane to nothing the moment I’m meant to put these things into practice?
Why am I staring at that last sentence wondering where the fuck the grammatical error that is causing the sentence not to flow is?
Why do I feel like I just made an entirely new grammatically incorrect sentence while trying to complain about the last one?
I should just stop.
Stop it, Kayla.
