    Sunday afternoon classics.

    And at the time cutting edge special effects which influenced a lot of directors.

    RIP

    To be fair I thought he had passed on a while ago. I loved all the fantasy movies he brought to life. Sinbad, Clash, Jason just some of the greats I still enjoy in this day and age! A pioneer during a golden age of movies. RIP!!

    The skeleton army in Jason and The Argonauts was terrifying as a boy.

    Dear man.

    My good lady is a massive fan and regularly watches his DVDs. Clash Of The Titans was one of my favourite films as a kid. A very special film maker.

    RIP.

    The Stephen Spielburg of his day, grew up as a kid watching his films, thought he was called Harry unless I'm thinking of someone different?

    A clever and imaginative man who created some classic cinematic moments. 'Jason and the Argonauts' is an all time favourite in this family. RIP.

    Jason and the Argonauts was him at the top of his game. A real hero of mine. R.I.P. great man.
