Personalized video message from the cast, personalized video message from Kristen Bell (much more expensive, obviously!), voicemail recordings, name a character after someone, have a local theatre rented out for a private showing possibly before the screenings, after-party tickets, be an extra, or even have a speaking role.&lt;p&gt;I presume that ultimate reward means this movie is outside the purview of SAG-AFTRA, as any speaking roles in SAG productions absolutely, positively must be performed by SAG guild members. This is going to be an official Warner Brothers product, and I wasn&apos;t aware WB was not fully in bed with SAG-AFTRA.&lt;p&gt;EDIT: What&apos;s up with Bell? She doesn&apos;t seem to understand the concept of Capital Letters aNd WHerE thEy bELONG In A Sentence. Or she&apos;s just being coy.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>$2 Million for ‘Veronica Mars’ Breaks Kickstarter Records</title><url>http://variety.com/2013/more/news/veronica-mars-kickstarter-reaches-1-million-in-funds-1200194274/</url></story>
<instructions>Your goal is to analyze the following comment and estimate how highly it will be upvoted by the Hacker News community.</instructions><comment><author>pasbesoin</author><text>Given that Warner Brothers is behind this and still owns the property (per what I read, elsewhere), I&apos;m not particularly in favor of this.&lt;p&gt;They have plenty of money to &quot;risk&quot; and invest, and presumably will see the lion&apos;s share of any positive outcome of this initiative.&lt;p&gt;If and as such, I&apos;m not favorably inclined towards their using the mechanism to... mitigate risk (yet further), I guess.  It takes away from projects that don&apos;t have a &quot;sugar daddy&quot; sitting in the wings.&lt;p&gt;P.S.  Or, even if it doesn&apos;t &quot;take away&quot; from other projects seeking funding, I&apos;m... somehow still offended.  Especially in light how how these same &quot;big name&quot; studios use severely restricted distribution options and other controls to screw over not only fans/customers but the shows that depend upon them.&lt;p&gt;Warner Brothers using Kickstarter -- or, &quot;forcing&quot; their property to do so?  It just stinks, to me.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>$2 Million for ‘Veronica Mars’ Breaks Kickstarter Records</title><url>http://variety.com/2013/more/news/veronica-mars-kickstarter-reaches-1-million-in-funds-1200194274/</url></story>
