Book Overview
Imagine: the first Star Wars book that actually moves, bringing to life the most memorable scenes from the epic: Obi-Wan battles Darth Maul The Millennium Falcon zooms away from an exploding Death Star Luke rides a galloping Tauntaun, Yoda twirls his green lightsaber, Boba Fett blasts up, up and away And of course the most memorable scene of all--red and blue lightsabers flashing, Luke and Darth Vader fight the ultimate battle between good and evil. It's a marriage made in a galaxy far, far away: phenomenal Scanimation meets Star Wars , the enduring epic that's sold $42 billion in ticket sales and earned the title #1 Boys Action Toy License of all time. Created by Rufus Butler Seder, Star Wars: A Scanimation Book presents 12 of the most memorable scenes, in a landscape, i.e., movie format. It's an homage from an artist obsessed with the earliest forms of capturing visual motion to an artist obsessed with the most advanced. But that's not what young fans will care about--this is having pure movie magic in the palm of your hand, to replay again and again.

Amazing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I've always been intrigued and impressed by the Scanimation line of animated picture books. Their lo-fi eye candy is especially compelling in todays increasingly digital world. As soon as I saw the Star Wars edition today, I bought it on the spot at a local bookstore. After I signed my slip I realized I was so blown away by the product I forgot to check the price before I bought it. Like all Scanimation books, the pictures are small in scope but big on animation. the animation is provided by alternating bands of tint, a very cool effect. Even the presence of several (3 or 4) scenes from the most recent three movies did not detract significantly from my enjoyment. An excellent book for any fan of any of the three movies, or pop-up/childrens book collectors.
Great animation book!

My only complaint is that some of the pictures are very dark and hard to see. That said, my son (35 years) and my grandson (3 years) absolutely love this book.
Must have
