My thoughts and prayers are with Adywan as he goes through this difficult time.

Like everyone has said, take time off the project for what really matters.....and that also includes a well needed recharge for yourself, keep well mate!!

Just saw Ady's message on 005's blog.
Ady, I don't think you should bother with release dates. It just puts undue amount of pressure on you. Might be better to say it's done when it's done.
Do what you need to do. Everyone can wait a bit longer - it's not like we're going to stop loving Star Wars.
Yeah you gotta take care of your dad, and this fanedit should not be top priority. Hope for all the best for you and your dad! I know that whenever you get the time to finish this it will blow us away.

This. You are beholden to no one but yourself.
Best wishes, Ady. Keep the faith. We'll do the same.

Avoid infestation. Rotate.
Ady, you should have taken a vacation from this edit a long time ago. Spend all the time you can with your dad because family is the most important thing. Our hearts here at OT.com go out to you and your family.

Same thoughts here. Vacation has been long overdue.
I'm actually curious as to who the insensitive prick is, but I would only end up spamming the guy with messages of me describing painful things.
If he read ady's message on fb, and we're lucky, maybe he'll back off altogether, now that he knows ady's (finally) put everything on hold.
Other way around, he could get really pissed now...

Ady, your priorities are of course quite correct. I'm sure we are all thinking of you at this difficult time. As has been said before, family comes first.
You guys know Ady better than I do - would it makes things awkward or otherwise difficult for him if I were to make a small donation to help out? I don't mean that it should go to the edit or anything, I'm just looking to make things a little easier.
Either way, my thoughts and prayers are with you Ady.

I've been wondering that myself. Maybe Ady can take Paypal donations that are marked for personal use? I'll see what I can work out.

Ok, thank you.

Best wishes to you, Ady. Hope this rough patch doesn't last. First things first.

Any donations that Adywan receives he of course uses on the edit....however that means he doesn't have to use his own dough on the edit...so donating to the edit helps Adywan in more ways than just paying for styrene..
I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.
Good luck with your dad, Ady.
All the best with your father, Ady!!
Longtime lurker here and have been frequently present on your Facebook Revisited pages. Take all the time off you need. Agreed it's always better to finish a project without a deadline sometimes....
“Did you know, the word ‘gullible’ is not in the dictionary?! Look it up.”
Like I said on Facebook, hopefully things will get better for you and your family, and after they do take more time off. Don't think were gonna hate you for a simple delay, your a single person doing something that George and a massive industry full of the best of the best can't even do right.
I look at the work you've done and all I can think is "Oh man, I would've given up after colour correction".
You deserve a vacation. Be with your family, and don't worry about the edit. We'll be right here as always.
"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Just one?! Haha. ;) I hope the family can help he and his father a lot. They seem to be much tighter than my useless relatives.
Take all the time necessary for your father and your family they comes first. good luck to you, keep courage, and good recovery to your father. may the force be with you.
Take care of your Dad Ady. We love you and our hearts go out to you.
I lost my Dad in 2008 and I miss him SO much every single day. That time is so precious, so don't waste a second.
You can finish anytime.
Take Care Adywan.
As others have already stated, please take all the time you need to care for your family. Don't worry about deadlines - a goal is a good thing, but there's no need to put that kind of pressure on yourself. A break will do you some good. Very sorry to hear things are weighing down on you and I hope things work out for you.
And to whomever it was that made such a cruel and heartless suggestion to Ady about his dad, I just have one question - how do you sleep at night?
Thankfully I think the vast majority of us all want what's best for Ady and his family. Great work on the latest clip too. I know there's probably a lot I've missed but from what I can tell there are some really nice improvements - the asteroid field looks stunning, even on the lousy Youtube quality clip.
Screw the nay sayers. When and if you are able to contribute to the forums futher more (in whatever time scale), i for one appriciate your every effort of the OTmember, whoever the hell you maybe.
Hello all. I'd like to make a humble suggestion at this time, based on whats going on with this edit. Here's a quote from Ady on facebook:
Now, we all know that Ady is taking a break from this edit to concentrate on his family (and rightly so), but he is VERY clear on his intentions to return to this project and finish it. He also mentions, however, that he is out of funds, and I think that this would be an excellent time to try and raise a little money for this project. I myself have made a donation to coincide with the completion of 2nd unit shooting, and joined mine to Ming's donation (I know several other 2nd uniters also made donations as well). So I'd like to call upon any and all who can spare a few bucks to help see this thing to its end result. It would be most excellent if once Ady was ready to come back to the project, we had a nice fat budget for him to work from.
So who's with me? (and others who have also already donated at this time)
Count me in. I'll gladly throw in a little contribution. Lead the way to a link! :)

Good on ya....link is in Ady's signature (first post in this particular thread is a good place to look)
Ok, who's next.....it'd really be great if this snowballed into something big
