....why did this die

Simply a matter of tme and interest.  I've been dedicating myself to my independent filmmaking endeavors on and off since this.  Also, when I realized how utterly irreconcilable the plots of these movies were, and how many plot holes existed, it kind of took the ambition out of the project for me.  That's what I get for writing a nine page long review of "The Phantom Menace."  I can tighten things up, add/delete scenes, and restructure the story, but the problems with the stories are beyond mere editing fixes.  They are at the conceptual stage, and I think it wil require an Adywan style extensive task to revamp these films from the ground up to resolve those problems I have with them now.

All of the files are still on my hard drive, sucking up dozens of gigabytes of space, and so, it's not gone nor impossible that it won't see further progress.  I just don't see it happening anytime soon.  Plus, my YouTube account got hit with copyright strikes from the clips I posted up from my edit.  So, I would have to be more careful where I upload previews of this stuff.
