Aliens, Blade Runner, Dune, Mad Max, Return of the Jedi, the Star Trek series, Blue Thunder, Cocoon, Enemy Mine, Robocop, 2010, War Games... these are all movies that defined science fiction films in the 1980s. But what was it like making these movies? This collection of in-depth interviews with the actors, writers, producers and directors takes you behind the scenes with the people who made these movies happen, including David Lynch, Kyle MacLachlin, Raffaella De Laurentiis, Mel Gibson, Harve Bennett, William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, Roy Scheider, Keir Dullea, Richard Marquand, John Badham, Ridley Scott, and Gale Ann Hurd. The interviews, many of which were originally published in Starlog Magazine, were conducted by Lee Goldberg, Randy Lofficier, Jean-Marc Lofficier, and William Rabkin, all of whom went on to great acclaim in various corners of the entertainment industry, including publishing, screenwriting and TV production.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Goldberg comes the second thrilling book in action-packed JURY SERIES, the novels that launched his career in the 1980s. After a family tragedy, Brett Macklin has sworn to take the law into his own hands and make the guilty pay. This time, Macklin's target is Wesley Saputo, porn kingpin and murderer, who has slipped through the courts time after time, only to kidnap, rape and kill again...and again. Macklin's mission: locate and destroy Saputo before he finds another innocent life to destroy. (Originally published as "Make Them Pay," the second book in the ".357 Vigilante" series, under the pen name Ian Ludlow.) Other books in the series: JUDGMENT * PAYBACK * GUILTY ABOUT THE AUTHOR Lee Goldberg is a two-time Edgar & two-time Shamus Award nominee and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of over thirty novels, including the Wall Street Journal bestseller True Fiction, fifteen Monk mysteries and the first five internationally bestselling Fox & O'Hare books (The Heist, The Chase, The Job, The Scam, The Pursuit ) co-written with Janet Evanovich, and the #1 Amazon bestselling Eve Ronin novels (Lost Hills, Bone Canyon, Gated Prey, Movieland).

In the 1980s, long before Lee Goldberg became a #1 New York Times bestselling author and successful TV writer/producer, he paid his UCLA tuition and rent by working as a freelance journalist covering the entertainment industry. His first, big interviews was with one of his idols, screenwriter Richard Maibaum, who wrote most of the James Bond movies. That lengthy, controversial, and award-winning interview, first published in the UCLA Daily Bruin and later reprinted in Starlog Magazine, was the beginning of Lee's extensive 007 coverage. Over the next few years, his Bond-related interviews for Starlog and other publications included actors Barry Nelson (the first man to play James Bond in TV's Casino Royale), George Lazenby (the one-time Bond in On Her Majesty's Secret Service), Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton, screenwriters Tom Mankiewicz, Michael Wilson and Lorenzo Semple Jr., and directors John Glen and Peter Hunt. Those interviews and more, quoted for decades in reference books about the Bond films, are now collected for the first time, in their original form, in this entertaining, and unique volume.This book, the first in a series of Goldberg's collected Hollywood journalism, isn't an exhaustive, detailed examination of the Bond films. Instead it's an intriguing snapshot of filmmaking in the 1980s, a revealing look at the creation of the Bond films...and perhaps also offers a glimpse into Goldberg's formative years as a writer, and how the lessons learned from his interviews may have shaped his own career as an acclaimed novelist and screenwriter.
