CliqueClackGet in on the Veronica Mars movie project before it’s too late
Hey, fellow marshmallows! There are only two days left to get in on the ‘Veronica Mars’ movie Kickstarter action, where you can help make history by donating as little as $1 to the cause. Hey, nobody’s saying you can’t donate to cure cancer or feed starving children too.
It’s unlikely that there are many (any?) Veronica Mars fans out there who haven’t at least heard about the highly successful Kickstarter campaign for an official Veronica Mars movie, but King Rob says there just might be, so it’s become our duty as backers to help spread the word out just a little further.
The campaign — officially launched by Veronica Mars creator (aforementioned King) Rob Thomas — has quickly and easily reached its initial funding goal of $2 million (it’s at almost $5 million now), shattering some Kickstarter records, including fastest project to $1 million, fastest project to $2 million and biggest film project in Kickstarter history. Now they’ve got another goal in their crosshairs: more backers than any Kickstarter drive in history.
In order to achieve that final goal, the the drive needs to acquire at least 87,143 backers (they’re at about 75,700 now). To help drive them to that number, the campaign is now offering a $1 pledge offering, which wasn’t initially available when the campaign started. While they aren’t offering any tangible rewards for donating a dollar, I will tell you that Thomas is doing a great job so far of providing some exclusive updates to all backers, regardless of the donation level. Photos of script pages, behind-the-scenes videos, and more. As a Veronica Mars fan, that one dollar is a bargain for what you’re getting in your inbox on a regular basis. In fact, the most recent update announced Veronica Mars coming to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con! Man, I can’t wait.
Leave a note in the comments if you’ve donated and at what level reward you hit.

I pledged $100, but I might pledge more if I’m able to get premiere tickets that may or may not be released later.
Thanks for spreading the word.
I did! Only $35 but I get a nifty shirt and a digital download of the movie!
Pledge $200 for the signed poster and then an extra $25 to get both shirts. Can’t wait!
*Pledged
I pledged 10, hey it is what i could do..and yeap i can’t wait !!!!!
So I got involved early, donated at $100, then jumped on the premiere tickets in NY when they became available. Except now my friend has said she can’t afford half and doesn’t want it for free. I have just a few hours to decide whether to keep them and work on the second ticket later or switch back to $100…
Decisions, decisions.
