So, the whole idea of crowd funding was for small persons and groups to present their ideas directly to the public for funding and support.
However, there are increasing number of people who "just don't get it". Case in point: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects.../batman-legacy Now, this gentleman wants to leave his mark on the Batman franchise with a multi-generational story based around the Dark Knight. The problem? He's not actually "doing it", he's asking for $3,000 dollars for a plane ticket to Burbank (presumably California) to walk into the DC offices and pitch his idea. That's it. He clearly doesn't "get" how the real world works, and his lack of proper English skills really don't give me any confidence in his ability to "write" this vast project he envisions, and his "stretch goals" are completely unrealistic given he ASSUMES DC will roll with this (which they won't) STuff like this is NOT what Kickstarter is for.

Maybe he just wants three grand and figured some folks are dumb enough to believe his story.
