Veronica Mars The Movie Funded Through Kickstarter?

UPDATE: The Veronica Mars Movie Project has met its goal less than twelve hours after its Kickstarter campaign began. As I write this, it has reached $2,092,937. Looks like we’ll be seeing a Veronica Mars movie in 2014!

Earlier: Fans of cult fave TV series Veronicas Mars will be pleased (but not astonished) to learn that Veronica Mars The Movie is an official Kickstarter project. Series creator Rob Thomas has put together a plan to persuade Warner Brothers to make the movie – by crowd sourcing it.

The goal is to reach a minimum two million dollar budget in thirty days. The Kickstarter campaign has only just begun – and with thirty days to go, sits just over the halfway mark (seriously – it was at $1,018,420 when I wrote this).
