SPIKE LEE

In an attempt to raise money for his next feature film, Spike Lee has begun a Kick starter campaign. According to reporters, Lee is looking to generate $1.25 million in funding over the next month.
In exchange for any “donations,” Lee is promising a wide-ranging assortment of gifts.
Five bucks gets you a thank you tweet from Lee himself and access to behind-the-scenes project updates. Pitching in $500 will get you a pair of autographed, Spike-worn Nikes. A thousand big ones puts you on screen, as an extra in the movie. Forking over $5,000 will net you an Associate Producer credit at the end of the film.
And the coup de grace, a $10,000 pledge, will put you courtside at a Knicks game next to the diehard fanatic himself:
“This Award Is For All Playa-Playas. For 10 Grand I’m Taking You to Dinner, Then You Will Have The Honor And Privilege To Sit Next To Me (in my wife’s Tonya’s seat) courtside – front row in the best seat in the house at the world’s most famous arena – Madison Square Garden to see our beloved New York Knickerbockers, orange and blue skies. If you don’t know this is one of the true great sporting events today. You will remember this experience as long as you live. This is a very limited item. You slow – you blow. This is big, big time. Ps. Knicks will be great this coming new season.”
