Hi

Just saw this on Kickstarter and thought it might interest you as well

I am in no way affiliated with the project, other than I think it is cool and would like to see the results.

No kidding! Total understatement. I could make a whole season of budget television for that.

You forget the licence fees. Those guys want to show BTTF movie scenes in their documentary.

No, I'm not forgetting licence fees. I've worked in TV a long time and $745,701 (in my country's currency) is WAY in excess of their needs. As I said, I've pitched entire series that cost less than that. Also, despite the fact that it's a hugely popular series of films the rights to use select scenes from BTTF in a documentary are not that pricey (comparatively) depending on your licence agreement. The $462,429 they have budgeted for that licencing is far in excess of actual cost unless there's some crazy different deal in Britain than there is in Canada.

They only have about a $1000 so far?

They should just have you re-create any scenes they need, you've done that to some critical acclaim already! Tell them you'll do it for $231,214.50, that's 1/2 off! :lol

You spelled "critically panned" wrong. :lol
