I don't know why my links aren't clickable sometimes.. {nm} MiyazakiFan Apr 24, 12:34

You know Kickstarter is ruined when someone who was turned down everywhere uses it as a last resort {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 24, 12:35

Also the rewards are awful. No digital download or DVD offer. And the higest bidders get no producer or exec credit. {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 24, 12:58

Is it getting harder for independent movies to get funded or are there simply more movies? As a total outsider I find it interesting because {nm} GMov Apr 24, 12:37

don't know why IM never works anymore. Was just saying it always seemed like studios were hungry for new ideas. probably a naive comment. GMov Apr 24, 12:38

Studios aren't interested in original ideas, they're interested in reliable, derivative, and above all marketable tropes. stevie1der328 Apr 24, 13:47

Kickstarter is an attractive option to brag because he doesn't have to pay anyone back {nm} Moviesnob Apr 24, 13:01

You mean people give money...opposed to investing in the project?? GMov Apr 24, 13:10

Yep. Money is given through Kickstarter/IndieGoGo in exchange for perks (swag, DVDs, etc) instead of owning a single piece of the back end. {nm} skamanfu Apr 24, 13:40

And the perks on this one suck in comparison to other deals. numbersix_99 Apr 24, 13:44

They really do. Not tangible at all. For VM we'll get the Blu-Ray, a digital version of the film in advance, etc. {nm} MiyazakiFan Apr 25, 07:43
