Between this book and "Inside the Magic: the making of..." You'll be covered for pre much everything to do with the movie. Plenty of fold out and removable pieces to admire. It covers everything from the cast/characters, wardrobe, stage/setting designs, graphic designs, prop making etc. Although it doesn't have as many removable objects as "Harry Potter Film Wizardry" does, it's still well done considering it's only one movie at the moment. There is a good balance of text to images. A peeve of mine is when they fill these kind of books up with only screen grabs from the movie, but from what I recall it didn't have many that put me off. A great read for those who enjoy this kind of insight into production :D
