This looks like something my little cousin would make/watch. He's 13 and thinks youtube videos of sprites with DBZ voices overlayed in completely random fashion is the greatest thing and must be shared. I was afraid he was behind this but thankfully it's some other kid or an adult with the mind of a 13 year old that watches too much DBZ and Naruto.

Gez finally. I have been waiting forever. This movie is to raise awareness of mario and DBZ, they are not nearly famous enough and this kickstarter hope to help these small relatively unknown game/animes out. Course the original creator isn't involved, this is a fan project of a fan project. Why do I get the feeling that this kickstarter was just some middle/highschool project and someone just can't let poo poo go.

Nah. He's going to mush-mouth through a poorly written speech, posture a lot, then throw around some dramatic, threatening gestures that look cool but don't actually hurt the evil corporate parasites at all. Clearly, a pro wrestler is what the role demands.

Welp, the video is literally 19 seconds long and makes it look like a porno. It tells you absolutely loving nothing.quote:SoBrown and the Seven Pharaohs is such a unique story that the world is dying to see. If funding goal is not just reached, but surpassed, we will be able to deliver a quality film that will change lives and teach moral values in a way that has not been done through the "new age" fairytales. Its not just beautiful imagery or a gorgeous cast its an untold story of Ancient Egyptian Kings with a fun musical and magical twist! SoBrown the movie is the beginning of something new and grand in the world of filmmaking and we want to guarantee its success by giving it quality: outstanding cast/crew, the best costumes, ideal locations, up-to-date and high tech camera equipment and lenses, proper lighting packages, a great animation team and quality does not come cheap! If we do not receive this funding the project will lack some of the so desired quality and may not be as successful in festivals. Wait, what the gently caress was the moral of Snow White? (Also, I'd normally feel the need to comment on the Afrocentrist implications of the casting, and how it has serious historical baggage, but honestly, Hollywood casts white people as ancient Egyptians all the time, so gently caress it. The production seems to be pretty much 100% black people, so yeah, they're probably gonna cast black people in the roles. That is their prerogative as filmmakers.)

Behold the future of aviation, the sphere. Instead of giving the potential funder pictures of their prototype or a render of the product, they have something better: a physics lecture on fluid dynamics that doesn't skimp on the mathematics. Their campaign only has one reward tier at 25 dollars, which gets you a nonfunctional prototype. But fear not, there's a good chance the prototype ends up flying just as well as the final product. That is to say, not at all:Disclaimer, buried under physics lesson posted:The risk is that it may not fly.

Didn't end up in the FAQ section oddly enough. EDIT: I'm wrong, 7km/sec, and your payload has to be able to withstand 60,000 G. Sounds practical.

SoundMonkey posted:EDIT: I'm wrong, 7km/sec, and your payload has to be able to withstand 60,000 G. Sounds practical. Rather than marketing it as a cheap way to launch satellites into orbit, they should have marketed it as a very expensive (but very effective) trash compactor. I bought my last games console about ten years ago so I could be out of the loop on how these things work, but I doubt a lanyard for your controller is a solution to a problem that actually exists. Have you ever been inconvenienced by a TSA search? Did your experience piss you off so much that you're in desperate need of a product that tells other people exactly how much you've had it with those TSA folks? Look no further than TSA SURVIVOR. IndieGoGo is the best. A bad KickStarter is like a loopy but well-meaning uncle who always comes up with get-rich-quick schemes. A bad IndieGoGo campaign is like a crazy second cousin who keeps a BitCoin mining rig in his bedroom and uses the exhaust heat to dry strawberries. If IGG does any sort of campaign screening whatsoever, it's only to make sure the person running it isn't doing anything illegal. And it shows, because I don't think even the project leader has a single clue what the heck he's talking about. Give him a thousand euros, and he'll perform something called a 'mind-form densification'. I have no idea what that means, but he was nice enough to include a schematic.

Oh, I know all about the race controversy. I'm just baffled at how she figured it could possibly come off as well-thought-out when you have a number of pharaoh 'candidates' after the last dynasty has ended, a character named SoBrown (in what universe did this make any sense, Afrocentric or otherwise??) and portraying Cleopatra as evil but also as black, it's really bizarre and mixed-up compared to usual poorly-thought-out revisionist crap. If it wasn't so heavy-handed, it could actually be what it claims to be, which is a fun fairytale or whatever. Why do we have to pour race garbage into everything?
