IF YOUR INTO FX or MOVIE CRAFT "THIS BOOK IS AWESOME "
If you are into F/X or MOVIE Craft or just a fan of movies in general this book will not disappoint you ! .... its got tons of photos and behind the scenes type stuff, trivia and set info .... the only mildly disappointing thing was that I ordered a "Hard Cover" and while the book I got was not really a paper back type edition ... the cover was more like stiff cardboard .... not really a hard cover ..... the contents more than make up for the flimsy card stock cover ..... BUT THIS BOOK YOU WILL LOVE IT ....
