Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The Phantom Menace sets a new standard in visuals and props. Episode I was absolutely radiant with special effects, making use of some 2,000 of them, dwarfing that of previous Star Wars instalments and even the CGI-happy Titanic with its now- paltry 500. Even the low-tech effects, the physical props of Star Wars, have always been unbelievably detailed, from Luke's scuffed-up speeder to Vader's slightly dinged-up helmet (don't pretend you didn't notice). The Phantom Menace continues this tradition proudly, whether it's with Amidala's baroque headgear or the intricately machined (and deadly) armament on a droideka.

A page-turning drool-fest, Episode I: The Visual Dictionary stops the film and zooms in on all this eye-candy. As he did with the first trilogy in Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, author- archaeologist David West Reynolds once again elucidates and itemises with glee, combining witty, pseudo-scholarly prose with clear movie stills and excellent close-up photos of actual props and characters. Every personality and group of note gets its due in this well-labelled, picture- packed book, from the Jedi High Council to the Podrace crowd to the sea monsters of Naboo. Craving a closer look at Maul's double lightsabre? Wish you could tell a Neimoidian's rank by the hat on its head? Need some ideas for filling out your Podracer toolkit? This is the book for you. --Paul Hughes, Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautifully laid-out book, 8 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I bought this book before I saw the film and the extra detail contained within certainly enhanced my enjoyment of it. This book ,even if you are not a Star Wars fan, just shouts quality of presentation on every page. I showed it to a photographer friend and she was impressed by the excellent pictures and reproduction in the printing .Hey! go buy!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect movie companion, 20 Feb 2005
The range of Star Wars "Visual Dictionaries" is begins here with the release of Episode I. The book is filled with an abundance of rich and extraordinarily detailed photos of characters and props and still from the movies, and allows you to look at the finer details in the film, which can be hard to pick up whilst watching it. This book is suitable for anyone who has seen "The Phantom Menace" and wants to know more about the Star Wars universe, and why the events in the film are so important.
