Rating: Summary: Great pictures Review: Fun book to peruse. I'd have liked more details about construction of props or pics of props being built. Also, more "Star Wars" than "Raiders" despite the title.

Rating: Summary: Great for every fan of Star Wars or Indiana Jones movies Review: Great close ups of most of the models and props used in all the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies. Every fan will love to get a look at the detail of many objects (Especially love the detail of Darth Vaders mask when Luke took it off Darth's face).
Includes models, props, costumes, masks and mattes. A fan's dream. I'm taking off a point because I want more! more! more!
Rating: Summary: Why Didn't Someone Think of This Before! Review: Last year a good friend loaned me this book, with the comment, "You're gonna love this..." I picked it up on a bus ride and started to read. That night, I finally put the book down after finishing the entire thing. This book is phenomenal. I have always loved Star Wars, and the chance to look at many of the models, etc. was a treat. The prototype monsters, characters, etc. were also a plus, but my favorite section was that dealing with the models of the Imperial ships. The Indiana Jones section was also incredible, and this was another favorite of mine. Although there has been a lot of hype around Star Wars stuff, and many books have been published around the making of the movie, Indiana Jones has had less coverage, so this book was a great resource. Just goes to show what can happen if you dig around in there for a few hours!

Rating: Summary: A must have for any movie watcher! Review: This book is only rivaled by the catalogs of the Smithsonian archives. Take a jaunt through movie history with the props, costumes, and artwork of the two greatest trilogies in movie history. A must have
Rating: Summary: Why George Lucas will always eclipse the Star Trek Franchise Review: This book is proof positive why George Lucas and Speilberg will always be superior to the Star Trek Franchise with their brand of movies. The pictures in this one are a must have for any fan of Star Wars or Indiana Jones. The complete story boards. Not just crude renderings. The masks, the designs that didn't make it into the movie. The characters in all their films are not by formula. All the Star Wars aliens and models from Return of the Jedi are in this volume. You can see how closely the story boards match what would eventually would become the movie.
