12 Hours To Finance Veronica Mars

When Rob Thomas first went to Kickstarter to try and get funding for the movie version of Veronica Mars that Warner brothers said had no support, he gave himself 30 days to raise the $2M needed to make the movie. It took 12 hours. As I type this, almost 42,000 people have given a little over $2.5M of their money to get Veronica Mars made. You also know those 42,000 people will go see the actual movie so right there that is way more than any Jessica Simpson movie and $42,000 would be more than Kristen's last movie with Dax Shepherd made. Rob said after they reached their goal so fast that his mind was blown Kristen Bell, who stars as Veronica said they she will have a permanent blush on her face because of this whole thing. Could also be the pregnancy. The movie is set to start shooting in the summer and be released next year. Warner Brothers did agree to pick up the cost for everything not related to production, so they are not completely awful, but they were in a no lose situation so they are not completely great either.
