Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Of course, Warner Bros. still owns Veronica Mars and we would need their blessing and cooperation to pull this off. Kristen and I met with the Warner Bros. brass, and they agreed to allow us to take this shot. They were extremely cool about it, as a matter of fact. Their reaction was, if you can show there’s enough fan interest to warrant a movie, we’re on board.

So what happens to the Kickstarter funds if WB turns around and decides not to give their blessing and cooperation?

(Having seen some of the behind-the-scenes stuff for running a Kickstarter, I am now politely skeptical about all of them.)

Well, this is why I only gave $35!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

$993,445

Looks like it will hit a million before I go to lunch.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

$1 million, and we still don't know who the new pope is.

No clue on the pope thing, but I called the "before I go to lunch thing", anyway.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Fastest to a million in Kickstarter history. Move over, Amanda Palmer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They don't get collected? If Rob's responsible, can't he order things that way?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The FAQ says:

Q: Where is my money going?

A: All funds will go into a Veronica Mars Movie Project production account which has been set up by Warner Bros. on our behalf.

So it sounds like WB is officially on board.

I can't stop giggling to myself every time I think of how long I thought that the creator of Veronica Mars was the guy from Matchbox Twenty! I remember thinking that he was multi-talented!

Always Anti-fascist!

Some people really are...I mean, the guy that got the biggest laugh ever in ESPN history for making a mistake about some player's bulging disk became an Important Liberal voice and shit. Gopher served in the Senate. Things happen.
