Are more established directors taking crowdfunding opportunities away from others?

Last year, Spike Lee talked about financing one of his films through Kickstarter. Some say people like Spike ought to leave crowdfunding for the true upstarts. More than 150 films lay claim to Kickstarter-fundraising, a good chunk of these from more established filmmakers. What do you think? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/joe-vogel/is-crowdfunding-changing-_b_3751...

Well said, Janet! Where I live there was a guy, who, years ago, went door to door in his community to raise money for his film (often dragging his family along with him - who were in the film, too) -- talk about "crowdfunding" the old-fashioned way... Haha. Thanks for your thoughts!
