[Chris Harlan] “But are we really so jaded, that when someone finances a film in day, its just not worth talking about?”
Yes, because apparently the lesson to be learned here is that, if your famous and/or have a famous back-catalog property, you too can raise millions on Kickstarter!
Exactly how does this inspire anyone? Oh, it’ll “inspire” a lot of people all right, a lot of people who’ll put up countless Kickstarter campaigns and raise nothing, because they are unknowns with no established properties to play off of.
It hasn’t changed hardly anything for people trying to break in with an original idea, no matter the quality.
