I never knew that Ray Harryhausen is absolutely enormous! He makes that gorilla look tiny.

That's because he's Hausen those hairy rays...

I don't know what that means either but how do I unthink this?

Harryhousen is a freakin genius. We watched "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" at a watch party a couple months ago, it has some excellent stop-motion by him, a bunch of the youtube links are still active: https://piefed.social/post/1896937

yay! one of the things i like the most about his works is the understanding of physics of all those fantastical creatures - they have weight, their muscles are designed to deal with and their movement is plausible within those parameters - and at the same time - he doesn't make a gimmick out of all that
