Absolute Legend
The great Harryhausen got a bump lately... here's one for a living legend in the field of visual effects, Phil Tippett.
He's one of my all time heroes.
You've surely seen his work, but if you're not familiar with him by name please enjoy this lil tidbit:

If you are familiar, you may not have heard about his current ongoing work, Mad God, which he talks about a bit in the video above β one of the projects from the broader film world that I'm most excited about.
P.S.: Excuse me, bartender... I'd like to buy a drink for the posters on the Empire Strikes Back board talmbout "why don't they redo the tauntauns in cgi": https://images.homedepot-static.com/productImages/cc52c98b-5894-4da3-b269-856cd2872955/svn/clorox-bleach-4460030770-64_1000.jpg π
