There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Also, material from the Special Edition appears in boxes alongside the original versions of the final scripts. Enjoy! (And have this tome handy to settle trivia disputes that previously could only be settled by a Jedi Knight!)
Top reviews from other countries
Various other contributors are interviewed and quoted, such as the director of 'Empire' and the producer of the Special Edition films. These individuals provide insight into the film-making process. Overall, this is a highly insightful and entertaining read. While the screenplays for these films can be purchased separately, it's the annotations that make this book special. I enjoyed reading about, for instance, Lucas' thoughts on what the Force is, on how he first imagined the Jedi, and so much more.
I paid under £3 for this item - which was a real bargain. As I review, it's priced in excess of £60! It's simply not worth that price. As such, I suggest looking for a more reasonable seller.
In addition, the fact that the book was written before the notorious Prequels were produced was fascinating as you could see various unused elements from the eariler versions incorporated into Episodes 1 to 3 and at the same time it will no doubt offer hints as to what we may see in the upcoming Disney productions.
