Veronica Mars Movie - The Site

[kilverstone]

I am the owner of the site veronicamarsmovie.com and I want to assure everyone here that I am in no way, shape or form attempting to have fans pay for a movie. I have posted on the website, information about how to email, call or write to the CW network and ways the fans can support the noble cause of Invisible Children. The only information I have

Thanks for the clarification!

By the way - I adore your website design. I was just thinking today that it was one of the most aesthetically pleasing ones I've seen in a while.

Thanks for posting the distinction. There definitely is a group or at least a person representing a group soliciting donations from people via myspace and I think that's the problem we all have. Certainly campaigns requesting a movie in general are totally fine.

And as I've said before, it certainly is at first blush an exciting idea for any of us. After all, we're Veronica Mars fans and we do crazy things! But then reality kicks in and the impractical factors, etc. So I think most people have jokingly discussed or humorously fantasized about the idea of a fan funded movie, but we got concerned when someone started posting everywhere soliciting actual donations which got to be a little scary.

But I'm glad you pointed out that it isn't a campaign by you guys either.

I've seen you around the fandom for a long time now, so it's good to read you're heading up that particular effort. I'm glad you clarified you stance. I have no problem at all with supporting the idea of a VM movie. I think it's great. (Even though I personally have gotten to the point where I'm happy with how the show ended. :)

We just got worried when this guy from the CW boards showed up at TWoP and started directing people to his MySpace and asking for $25 to $200 (!)

Good luck with your site, and I think posting periodic updates about your campaign here would be fine. If you want to do that sort of thing. I think you and we all just want to make sure the diehard fans don't get taken advantage of - so sharing info would be lovely.

Hey Shannon,

At the moment you've got two different Invisible Children links on the page. One of them correctly goes to invisiblechildren.com, but the other goes to invisiblechildren.org; that one's not the one you wanted.

Just wanted to let you know!

Thanks for catching that! I went ahead and changed it to the proper link.
