Can't wait until the movie comes out...but this article is "old"..from January.

Still nice to be reminded that JD will (hopefully) be on the theatre screens again before too long..and, yep! I've already reserved front row seating on opening day..whenever that happens to be..

I'm on my fifth time through them Lilly!

It'll be wonderful to have a movie...I'd even go the the theater to see it, and I hate going to the theater...

Most who have been following all this know that WB has been less than receptive to the idea of a movie, even though Rob and all the cast are %100 on board.

Kristen Bell sent out this tweet yesterday:

VM movie fans- rob and i took it to WB- and they said "there is no enthusiasm" to make it so fans have to convince WB! rob and i r in!

Well, the twitter board went nuts with that, and it led to Kristen asking everyone to include #veronicamars in their posts so that it would emerge as a "trending topic" and to sent letters and tweets to Warner Brothers and let them know just how much enthusiasm there really is out here! You should check out some of what was posted on her board

And on #veronicamars on twitter http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23veronicamars

It was just so much fun to follow all this yesterday. She kind of reminded me of....... hmmm..... well ME! Only thing funnier than an obsessed fan....an obsessed actor!

This is good, very good. I'm glad Jason will get another 'crack' at this role and I'm hoping the movie is a success. If so, maybe it will fuel the fire for a Moonlight movie.

That is an old article. I've seen another article that said they did a marketing study to feel for an audience and it wasn't there, so no movie at this time. I'll see if I can find it and post it.


ETA: here is a link to a current article from July 6, 2009. It's not the one I saw previously but this is very current. Sorry, girls.

The thread was bumped up for the info that Ranger added about Kristen Bell and the tweeting info from July 9th.

Since there is some new info, I changed the thread title.

Thank you, Lucky! You're the best.

Here's an AOL Television interview with VM creator Rob Thomas: 'Veronica Mars' Creator: All Hope for a Movie is Not Lost

Bottom line: Nothing is imminent, but he's continuing to pursue all avenues available to get the movie made.



ETA: I've also moved this to "General Discussion" since there is no actual project on the horizon.

More of the same...

I will add that at the recent Comicpalooza appearance in Houston, both Jason and Francis Capra indicated that they felt Rob Thomas was still trying to get backing to make a movie. Francis in particular said, if a movie was made, he'd be camping on Thomas's doorstep until he was assured he would be in it.

Jason's take on it seemed a little pessimistic; he referred to it as an idea that's "getting older all the time," and I gathered he thought it was a longshot. But that he would be involved if it came to fruition.
