Product Description
In 1977 George Lucas brought Star Wars to the big screen - and made cinema history. Almost thirty years later he completed the saga with Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. This is the behind-the-scenes look at the making of the most important Star Wars film, the movie that explained the rise of the Empire and the creation of Darth Vader. With hundreds of images pulled from the official Lucasfilm archives, and full insight in to the movie-making process gleaned from interviews with the cast, the crew and George Lucas himself, this is the perfect book for fans of Star Wars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Making a masterpiece, 16 April 2005
By Mrs. Karen Mcnab "karen_mcnab" (Germany) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Making of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (Hardcover)
I have just started reading this Episode 3 title and can say that this is the best of this trilogy's making of series. Like the previous books this book takes us through the pre-production, production and post production phases of the movie making process. However the format of the book (especially the production phase) takes us on a day by day journey of the creation of the film. For those of you who are lucky to have the makng of episode 5 and 6 books I can only link the format to this. Fantastic!

However I would warn against young children seeing the pages relating to Anakins transformation (imolation)as I personally found the images rather disturbing. Don't know how Mr Lucas will get scenes like these through the British censors!

We may get a slightly watered down version compared to our American cousins. Hope not.

For anyone who is interested in how Star Wars films get to the cinema this book is for you!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now in awe of what is to come, 7 April 2005
By S. A. Richards "Pelusa MG" (Minneapolis, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As one who was quick to criticise Episodes I and II (mostly because Vader was not in them) I feel quite ashamed of doing so now having read this volume and seen the incredible amount of work and effort that has gone into Episode III. This book is excellent in the way it brings to life the entire creative process from pre to post production. Not only is it superbly written, particularly with regard to both its documentary and anecdotal aspects, but it is also lavishly illustrated with both orignal artworks and stills from both sides of the camera. It also records the process of developing script elements with the actors during production and describes some of the scenes left on the 'cutting room floor' as a result.

Having read this book, and in particular seen the pictures of the transformation of Anakin into Darth Vader (at last), I cannot wait to see the film. Based on what this book suggests this film will surely be regarded as the best of the rest (even better than Episode V - were that ever deemed possible!?). Having bought this volume I must now purchase The Art of Revenge of the Sith (also by the same author). I know I will not be disappointed. This book has renewed my faith in the prequals (well, maybe not totally when one considers Jar Jar Binks). However, this book sells the story and spectacle of Episode III well and I only hope that this is not the last of what has been a fantastic journey through galaxies far far away. I will be watching in awe as the credits roll and in particular be looking for the cameos by George Lucas (you know him) and Jeremy Bullock (the original Boba Fett). By the way, if you want to know more about these cameos then you will just have to buy... ahh, you know!.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Read, 10 Jun 2005
Good comprehensive book with a lot of written detail on the production behind the movie. I would have like to see more of the concept art that showed the alternatives to the various elements within the film, like they did for the earlier films. Still, it's more than a simple picture book and provides a good long read.
