I came in here to joke that I would pay money for someone not to make a brickfilm, only to realize the kickstarter page in question was started by a genuinely talented dude. I'll see if I can float a few bucks along soon.

Well it's sad to see that you didn't make it. I was looking forward to it, but it doesn't seem like you promoted it much.
I dont think the 3D would be necessary anyway - since its mostly going to be viewed on YouTube. The only way the 3D could be fully exploited would be to those fortunate enough to own a 3D TV (which I dont).
Getting over $600 is still quite impressive. I feel guilty that I didn't contribute - although maybe if this was submitted again I would try and see if I could squeeze out a few dollars...
As Max said, I don't think you need 3D. I would, instead, put that money towards lenses. Or buy Dragon, and use the spare money to get lego.
3D definitely doesn't seem necessary to me, having a good story and some good animation are critical, and they cost nothing except talent and imagination. Things like HD and 3D are good to have, but I don't think they're needed. Especially when they cost the price they do. 
I know: but its that crappy Red/Cyan effect that murders your eyes. I think Doug is talking about the kind you get on 3D TV's (since he said he needed one for playback purposes should he go with 3D) - which are obviously physically impossible to convert onto Youtube.
Well as long as he puts out a 3D and a regular version...I'm fine. I might try out the 3D version because I got glasses! Definitely looking forward to this film!
Thanks folks. Yeah I'm going to re evaluate the production. I wanted to do some new things never done before. But yes, I'll scale it back a bit and try again. This time with a much lower budget.
