Kickstarter: 'Future Filmgeekdom: Ain't It Cool with Harry Knowles'

I love people that are passionate in the things that they enjoy!

Starting his Ain't It Cool News website back in 1996, based in Austin, Texas, it's safe to say that Harry Knowles is very passionate about film! Between Harry and his co-writers at Ain't It Cool News, they view, review, analyze, and discuss more films than they can count. And then do it again!

"We care about film history, film futures, the indie industry, the studio industry, the stories behind the movies, the stories behind the stories! And so do the almost 1 million visitors who are on our site daily. If you have ever loved a film, hated a film, wanted to make a film, or are a filmmaker already, then you are one of us."

Season 1 of 'Ain't It Cool With Harry Knowles' debuted on the Nerdist YouTube channel, and earned them an International Academy of Web Television nomination in the process, and now they plan to go indie with Season 2. And that is where this Kickstarter comes in. The $100k funding they aim to raise will allow them to keep the magical movie basement studio set and to improve and expand it to allow a studio audience! Season 2 episodes feature interviews from Wes Craven, Danny Boyle, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Campbell, Fede Alvarez, Jane Levy and Tony Danza already in the can, and an ever expanding slate of guests as they take advantage of the incredible access that Austin provides, from Fantastic Fest to the Austin Film Festival to Butt-Numb-A-Thon to SXSW 2014.

With an incredible studio space, a dedicated crew and an unparalled lineup of guests, along with other major surprises the extra funds from this Kickstarter will help to make this all a reality!
