Charles Schneer, a producer who collaborated with special-effects wizard Ray Harryhausen to make such film fantasy classics as "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad" and "Jason and the Argonauts," died Jan. 21 at a hospice in Boca Raton, Fla. He was 88.

There was a time, in the early Seventies, when (here in the UK) colour TV was new, so the old black and white set got relegated to my bedroom.  As a result, from about 1974 to 1978, I absolutely immersed myself in Fifties Sci-Fi/Fantasy; watching Fifties Sci-Fi/Fantasy films was pretty much all I did for all those years.  Truly a Golden Age.

My self-build system - Vista 64 on a Kingston 240GB SSD, Asus P5Q Pro MB, Quad 6600 CPU, 8 Gb Geil Black Dragon Ram, CoolerMaster HAF932 full tower chassis, EVGA Geforce GTX 750Ti Superclocked 2 Gb, Coolermaster V8 CPU aircooler, Enermax 600W Modular PSU, 240Gb SSD, 2Tb HDD storage, 28" LCD monitor, and more red LEDs than a grown man really needs.....I built it in 2008 and can't afford a new one, yet.....!

My Software - Poser Pro 2012, Photoshop, Bryce 6 and Borderlands......"Catch a  r--i---d-----e-----!"

God bless him.  He was never a big name in Hollywood, but he had a long and fruitful career.  And his association with Harryhausen was probably the best thing that happened for fantasy film fans in the 50's, 60's and 70's.
