It's been 15 years since their last feature film, and I have been waiting for them to hopefully return one day. I would not only love to see this movie because it's Dragon's Lair, but I think it is important to keep traditional animation alive. I hope others will support this.

That bluray prize is for the video game, right? Sort of a rip-off.

The reward:donation ratio is very out of touch - Im not sure these guys are actually serious about making the movie.

I agree with you on both points, but I've always been a fan of Bluth animation, and it'd be great if they could pull it off.

This Kickstarter ************** (fill-in-the-blank) needs to be in the WISHLIST section.

Are perks really the only reason some people give to a Kickstarter? I couldn't give a crap about any of it. I'll donate to it because I want to see a movie made. A perk isn't going to make me pay more. How much I can logically afford + how much I really care for the movie getting made is the only decider on how much I'll give. As far as the blu-ray goes, in the end this will be a studio film if they can make this happen, so they can't guarantee any perks geared specifically at the film, like a blu ray of the movie when it eventually comes out.

They sound like they want to make it and have the ideas.

Except that the Wishlist section is specifically for movies that already exist and you want on blu ray. This is an announced movie project that will get made if the backing goes through as well as the pitch. Plenty of threads that get made here with less.

I've heard very, VERY unflattering stories about Don Bluth, so as much as I enjoyed playing Dragon's Lair as a kid...no. Not one cent.

See Kung Fury.

Having cool rewards at low cost will get more people to donate. Their goal is $500 thousand? To make a movie with that? I love their animated movies but Kickstarter seems a bit sketchy. Im not convinced that they actually want to make it. And what happens to all the money they get if it doesnt get funded?

I'll just stick with this:
