Being Relevant
When I was growing up, that movie was seminal to me being a software engineer today. I distinctly remember when I first saw the wire frame model of the Death Star and all the rebel pilots were being briefed on destroying it I wanted to make that. Not the Death Star and not an X-Wing fighter, but I somebody with a computer put that wire frame model together and I wanted to do that with my life. Here I am now 29 years after Star Wars came out and I'm a software engineer because of that first dream seeing the model.
My problem is Star Wars is no longer relevant to a huge portion of the population. I even am friends with people who have never seen Star Wars! I know, I'm amazed too. Anyway, in my quest to be relevant, I'll continue searching for a movie clip.
