Hi everyone,

Sorry I have not been around lately....I had a particularly tough past few months in school.  I've actually got a take home final due in a couple hours, but I thought of this out of the blue and wanted to come back....

I just want to let everyone know I am NOT DONE with this movie. 

I was in a different phase of life when I did this edit, and because of a slow computer and lots of other things going on in my teenage life at the time, I never finished it. 

But this is unfinished business .  As they said in advertising Jaws: The Revenge...this time it's personal.  When I watch the rough cut, I'm transported not only into the world of Star Wars, but I feel like I'm 15 again.  All the issues and problems going on in my life at the time, but also all of the excitement I had for this.   I guess you could say this edit was kind of an escape from the real world.  And I loved working on it and bringing other peoples' ideas into reality.  I was just never able to finish it.  

I'm still fired up about this. 

I can't promise you that I'll get a lot done over Christmas break (I've only got 3 weeks or so, and I'd really like to spend some time with the family) but this WILL be finished. 

It's very important to me. 

Thanks guys!  Take care,

-TM
