(grift).<\/p>\n<p>But there is something undeniably and ironically twisted about claiming that there were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/troubling-details-emerge-sets-bruce-willis-final-movies-guy-guided-bruce-everywhere\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bad agents<\/a> in Lee&rsquo;s life who only saw him for material gain &mdash; health be damned &mdash; but that you can only provide evidence for a premium cost.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in fairness to Bolerjack, he does spell out rather clearly what this money is for, just in case others&rsquo; minds also wandered to the g-word.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The overwhelming majority of the funds raised will support the production of our film,&rdquo; the Kickstarter noted.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;While our goal is the minimum we need to complete the project, anything above that will go toward making the film that much better.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Additional costs include: Feeding and paying for the crew, equipment rental, set construction, wardrobe, editing, and legal fees.<\/p>\n<p>Look, the final years of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/latest-woke-rewriting-x-men-history-debunked-stan-lee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stan Lee&rsquo;s<\/a> life being ripped apart by greedy grifters is a tragic story worth telling.<\/p>\n<p>But based on the lack of funding of this Kickstarter, it&rsquo;s clear prospective viewers have some reservations about greedy grifters to this very day.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none;
