    Won’t be long before she publicly cries about reddit being mean to her, also, why the fuck does she need a kickstarter? Is she as terrible at managing her money as she is at acting?

      That was my first thought. Like youve been UFC and WWE champion. You probably got a shit tonne of money for MK11… Use your own damn money!

      Celebrities don’t like spending their own money… In 2013-14 there was that Veronica Mars movie, it was put on Kickstarter even though the star and director are both well off, not movie star money but well off, they could have funded that movie if they wanted to make it. They ended up with 6 million in funding, only recovered about half of that when it released, it’s a risky gamble if you are using your own money instead of other peoples.

        Which is kind of the original point of Kickstarter. It was meant to be used to fund projects that don’t necessarily have great commercial prospects, but still have an audience that would like that thing to exist. That’s why you don’t invest in something on Kickstarter, you back it. Investors expect ROI; backers do it for the public good.

      Kickstarter is largely used to market and gage interest while setting up a very early preorder list.

      Almost no media project is actually funded solely through Kickstarter anymore, especially not for physical media like comics or board games.

        Learned that after Brian Pulido’s 284756th Lady Death kickstarter. 8 was my limit.

          I actually almost only get board games I’m hype about from KS these days, that’s how I know.

          Board game fighting game BattleCon for instance, which I heartily recommend.

    I didn’t realize she was a nutjob. Wow seems like every day you learn a new celebrity was actually horrible all along.

    I’m impressed, they answered 38 questions it looks like, I’ve seen bigger name celebrities do less and they didn’t get half the hate and down votes.

    Obviously, she deserves that hate, I can’t imagine losing my kid in a horrible way and then watching this huge at the time celebrity disparage their memory and claim they aren’t real. Fucking moron.

      STORY SUMMARY: Her codename: “Mom.” With a fake baby bump filled with guns, she’s built a reputation as one of the deadliest hit-women on the planet. But on the verge of her big break in the criminal underworld, Mom makes a fateful decision: sleeping with a potential target (who just so happens to be a top-ranked assassin himself). What follows is a wild mashup of action, adventure, comedy, and romance as a newly pregnant Mom with a bounty on her head fights off wave-after-wave of assassins, falls in love with her baby daddy, and decides how to face her personal and professional predicament.

      Appears to start out it’s fake and has guns in it. Then it becomes real…

      It’s not common but we’ve seen pregnant women at gun ranges before where I live.

        That summary almost makes me want to read it.

        And by that I mean I would rather yank out my eyeballs and slice em up on a mandoline while singing ‘Oh Susana’ than read that godawful piece of shit comic lmao.

        I don’t live in the south and pass multiple Confederate flags when I go to visit my dad, a pregnant woman shooting a gun isn’t surprising to me. I was more questioning how a pregnant woman is doing action star type stuff, even if it is Rousey. But if she’s pregnant with more guns makes sense, I guess.
