"Many science fiction movies from the last 40 years have blazed new vistas for viewers. Theyve reached further into the future, traveled longer into the past, soared deeper into the vastness of the cosmos, and probed more intently inside mans consciousness than any other period of film before ... This FAQ travels to a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away ... visits a theme park where DNA-created dinosaurs roam ... watches as aliens come to Earth, hunting humans for sport ... and much, much more."--Amazon.com.
