This review is from: Making of Lost in Space (Paperback)

I was impressed by the motion picture remake of the old "Lost in Space" TV series: the sets, costumes, effects, and other elements were obviously conceived and designed with great care and professionalism. "The Making of Lost in Space," by Pat Cadigan, is a documentary look at the making of the motion picture.

Cadigan discusses the process of transforming the elements of the familiar 60s TV series into a film. The book contains many fascinating concept drawings of the visual elements that eventually were used. Many "behind-the-scenes" artists and technicians get some well-deserved recognition.

I don't know what the future holds for this sci-fi franchise. But this book is a treat for "Lost in Space" fans anyway.

This review is from: Making of Lost in Space (Paperback)

Many shots in this book lack interesting features and are there just to fill space. Also many images are blury and it does not even tell anything about the movie soundtrack, which I know inclues excellent songs by Apollo440 and a joint venture by Juno Reactor and The Creatures.
