Book Review - Star Wars: A Scanimation Book: Iconic Scenes from a Galaxy Far, Far Away...


Star Wars: A Scanimation Book: Iconic Scenes from a Galaxy Far, Far Away...



About the Book

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.


My Take on the Book
If you love Star Wars this will bring some great characters to life for you to look at again and again. The animation works well and on each page you will be drawn into scenes that you are seeing and you will be able to re-live the scenes in a whole new way. The scenes are iconic and ones that you will love to see in action as I know that I did. While I would have loved to have seen more pages in this covering even more iconic scenes in the future. I will say that the pages do look better in brighter light due to the darkness of the scenes themselves. I have placed this book out and a number of people have already commented to how great this book is and asked how they could get one for themselves.
