Not one, but two film/video/web projects on Indie Go Go are breaking crowd-funding records.

Con Man, by Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion, closes this week and has raised over $2.8 Million from over 41,000 supporters.

“Wray Nerely (Alan Tudyk) was a co-star on Spectrum, a sci-fi series which was canceled yet became a cult classic. Wray’s good friend, Jack Moore (Nathan Fillion) starred in the series and has gone on to become a major movie star. While Jack enjoys the life of an A-lister, Wray tours the sci-fi circuit as a guest of conventions, comic book stores, and lots of pop culture events. The show will feature all the weird and crazy things that happen to Wray along the way to these events.”

For $25 funders get to watch the 12 episodes on Vimeo On Demand.

Super Troopers 2, by Broken Lizard, closes in a couple of weeks and so far has raised over $3.4 Million from over 36,000 supporters.

“Howdy. We’re Broken Lizard. Several moons ago, we made a little indie movie called Super Troopers, which we debuted at Sundance in 2001. We’re proud of how it turned out and apparently it struck a chord with many of you out there because almost daily we get asked “Who wants a mustache ride?” (“Who doesn’t?”) or “Did you chug real maple syrup?” (“Yes, and we will never, ever, ever do it again.”) or “How is the view from sugar heaven?” (“Sweet.”) But more than anything else, we get asked:When are you gonna get off your assess and make Super Trooper 2?”

For $30, funders get a digital download of the feature. For $35, funders get a Fandango movie ticket to the (as yet unmade) film plus other perks.

Both projects have surpassed the current record of $2.48 Million set only last July by Lazer Team.

Kickstarter still has a bigger record: $5.7 Million for the Veronica Mars Movie Project.

My take: I think it’s interesting that both of these projects are based on earlier enterprises, if not outright sequels. That’s one way to bring a lot of fans to the bazaar.
