Good for a laugh!

Got this book for Christmas and only yesterday looked at it. It's fun and silly and I've been quoting things from it in the office. People laugh. If they don't, they scream "Get the hell out of here and take that book with you!" I give it 4 stars.

A fun book to have in your pocket

For those who love the Star Wars trilogy, and don't already know these quoted lines like the back of their hand, this is a delightful little book. If you could orally preserve the classic screenplays verbatim in the event Lucasfilm archives lost them, though, the chief appeal is the novelty of having it. The variety of quotes is wide and sufficient, although there are a few places where they could have captured the quote more effectively. It's organized into humorous little sections, mostly by character. For those of us who act out the lively dialogue between R2 and C3P0 in the privacy of our own closets, this little book is well worth having.

Finally, a good feeling about something in Star Wars!

This was the greatest book about Star Wars. You can read,agree, and disagree with what the author put in. I liked this bookbecause it took one whole special part of SW, and compacted it. So now you don't have to read, "Oh look at this." You can read, "Why you...stuck up...scruffy looking...nerf herder!" Plus: You choose to read just Leia, Han and almost everyone else! So now you can whine like Luke, when Leia professes love with, "I LOVE YOU" and laugh it up like a fuzzball, as Han replys with a simple, "I know." Be glad that Darth Vader is dead, but that he is saved by Luke with, "You were right about me, Luke. Tell you sister you were right about me." Like I said before, Finally a good feeling about something in Star Wars.

I've got a really GOOD feeling about this!

Star Wars has great special effects. It has excellent direction and superb acting. John Williams provided one of the most memorable score in all of movie-making. However, the Star wars trilogy would never have been as successful as it has become if not for its memorable dialogue. Wheteher you laughed at the "scruffy-looking nerf-herder," cried at the death of "that old fossil," or cheered at the destruction of the "technological terror" constructed by the Empire, this book is a must

Good, but....

..perhaps they should have thought the layout a little bit more....because there are sentences that need to be together, and something is missed when they appear alone
