This is a little book, found in a used book store for $1.50. What a great buy if you really like Star Wars. Being a bit nutzy about the movies, and having a tendency to quote my favorite characters whenever possible to the absolute dismay of family and friends, I found this a nice reminder of some of the best lines from the three classic movies. It is nicely broken down into easy to understand categories, from The Proper Princess (great smart remarks from Leia) to Jabba's Rules of Good Business and It's Not Easy Being Green (Yoda - of course). Another good thing about this book - it is a great reference for Trivia! *Wonders if CT has a copy?* I only gave it a 4 rating cause I wish it had been a little longer and had a few more lines from the Imperials. The book does quote the Emperor and Vader, but there were some pretty good moments from the rest of the Imps who mostly made very brief but often memorable remarks. Oh well, maybe there will be an expanded edition after the release of the last Episode III. However, I can't really think of many great bits of dialog from Phantom Menace (heaven help us if we start memoralizing Jar Jar Binks!) - maybe "Attack of the Clones" will be better written. We'll just wait and see.
