The movie based on the arcade classic “Dragon’s Lair” is dropping its Kickstarter campaign and moving to a different crowdfunding site, Indiegogo.
Animation veterans Don Bluth and Gary Goldman, creators of “Dragon’s Lair” and movies including “The Land Before Time,” “All Dogs Go To Heaven,” “An American Tail,” and “The Secret of NIMH,” announced the move to Indiegogo, which launched today.
The original Kickstarter, launched in October, asked for $550,000, which would be used to make a 10-minute teaser to pitch the movie to studios. At the time of cancellation, nearly 3,000 had raised more than $240,000. The new campaign looks to raise $250,000 to fund the sizzle reel.
“Dragon’s Lair” was released in arcades in the 1980s and became beloved–and despised–for its full-motion cartoon animation and difficult gameplay.
Both Bluth and Goldman said last month that out of all the animated films they have made, it’s “Dragon’s Lair” for which their fans know them best.
so what you guys think? Would you support this? Go see it if it was actually made? I loved me some Don Bluth growing up would love to see a crack taken at this. So if it was made do you think it would stand a chance in this CGI animated world we all live in? Is DOn Bluth aspirations for this even feasible? It is trying to raise money and just moved to another site to raise funds....
