Good Summary Nice book but I would think there would be more behind the scenes stuff and I really would like to know more about how they do the stunts. The Hour by Hour is okay. Pictures are good The Bonus DVD is pretty much trash.. They talk about how they do stunts and they have no footage of anything hardly.. Mostly just show the same scene over and over
Very nice book but once you are done reading it.. most likely that will be it and you will sell it
