Someone backed the $10K speaking role.
'War Stories'
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I want it and yet I have not donated any $$ to it.
I haven't yet either. The prize I'd really like is a role as an extra, but I definitely can't pledge that kind of moolah. But I think I can spare enough to get myself a T-shirt or something.
I've kind of been burned on kickstarter with technology products so I'm not in the mood this week.
I'm pretty sure I've never gotten around to actually doing one, though there have been a few that interested me. So I think I'm ripe for the pledging.
I've funded like 10-15!! Some I was happy to fund because I knew I wasn't getting much out of it besides supporting the project planning.
Most I have wanted a product out of it and I think of the ones I've funded, I have liked the product 1-2 times. The others had flaws that made me mad. I probably wouldn't have bought the things if they were sold in a retail establishment.
I have only ever funded documentaries and theatre projects that I thought were interested or were former student's of mine, but I never really did it for the prize. I donated $35 because I want a digital copy of the movie, since I cannot be sure that it will be distributed where I live if made. I figure, I spect $30.00 for the DVD of the final episode of Dawson's Creek, and this can't really be worse than that!
I bought tickets to the premiere. It's over $800K already!

That's what I donated, for the same reason.
Any bets on what time it'll hit 1 million? It's $912,503 right now.
If it was Cupid with Piven and Marshall, I'd be in.(Even though Rob Thomas has had chances most kickstarterites only have in dreams) Not so much for Veronica though. That third season was SO awful.
Watching those things go is hysterical. I think it's great that people have so many more options about what to spend their money on. You can get the stuff that's really niche but cool for you.
$925k...
I've mostly pitched in on kickstarters for gaming products. Sadly, the one I was gung-ho enough about to help the author research Mongolian Religion and offer free use of one of my full-page drawings failed to fund.
