Comments.Text: Just remake it in Final Cut Pro x and then make all projects in final cut. It should simplify what you have to do.

  You should be able to send it directly to FCPX using the "Send To Final Cut Pro" menu item. Per the [documentation](http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#movcbf7e2a3f), they say:

  > With the project open, click anywhere in the timeline.

  > Final Cut Pro X opens. A new library appears in Final Cut Pro X with the name of your iMovie library, and a new event within that library contains the movie project you sent.
