What followed was a series of Powerpoint slides showing the various European language covers, and the news that each country would have specially selected content that was distinct to that nation. Selected pages from featured section (such as truths that have never been revealed, how the hype began, filming of the original trilogy, spinoffs, and what the fan base means to Lucasfilm) of the book were shown on the big screen while Sansweet explained the content. He also displayed the extra content that was specifically selected from various collections, including his own, and the Lucasfilm archives that illustrated each chapter.
The highlight of the talk was Steve explaining the richness of the 70 minutes of audio content of the pack-in CD, whilst trying to engage the audience of 300 people into singing the Life Day song from the Holiday Special.
