In this economy? Seriously, who has money to throw at something like this?

The animated Firefly show has all their ducks in a row and know what they're doing, this seems sketchy.

After the success of Iron Lung, we're gonna see more independent movies done with little funding. Fans have money and are tired of Hollywood.

Isnt that the upside of crowdfunding? If they meet their goal, it goes ahead, if they dont, everyone keeps their money.

Im not rich, but I can spare a few dollars to support creators I enjoy
