Veronica Mars The Movie Review

It's finally here the 14th March

I had the film downloading at just gone midnight and i have just finished watching it and i was't disappointed!!

It was fantastic without giving to many spoilers away Veronica (Kristen Bell) is happily living in New York with Piz (Chris Lowell) having interviews with high power law firms (enter first cameo Jamie Lee Curtis) when she hears on the news that Bonnie DeVille aka Carrie Bishop (was played by Leighton Meester in the series) and gets a call from Logan (Jason Dohring) for help after 9 years without speaking.

Surprise surprise when Veronica gets back to Neptune she can't resist her old ways to help solve the mystery of Bonnie's death and clear Logan's name (who by the way is now a fighter pilot). Whilst the film develops we see the connection between Logan and Veronica reignite and it's brilliant. Along the way there are twist and turns in the case leaving us wondering what really happened.

Some highlights for me where the high school reunion/after party you all probably know what scene i mean when Veronica punches Madison Sinclair, when Logan takes out Ruby Jetson on a date, the bit with Vinnie Van Lowe, James Franco's cameo and any scene with Dick (Ryan Hanson) he steels most scenes that he is and i love him he was one of my favourite characters from the series. Other people who make an appearance are; Wallace (Percy Deggs,) who is know a teacher at Neptune, Mac (Tina Majorino), Gia Goodman (Kristen Ritter), Vinnie Van Lowe (Ken Marino), Keith Mars (Enrico Colantoni), Leo (Max Greenfield) and Weevil (Francis Capra) as well as a few familiar faces from the series and some cameos include Dax Shepard and Justin Long

All in all i think Rob Thomas did a really good job was surprised by the conclusion to the case and some of the events and could have a sequel in it future (finger crossed). But it was definitely worth the donating to the kickstarter campaign as it was by far worth it. The film is amazing and i bet i am not the only marshmellow out there that was/is waiting for midnight.

The films will be ready to download from iTunes when ever midnight is in your time zone you won't be disappointed.

Rating 5/5

What did everyone else think??

Veronica Mars The Movie Trailer

I know, I know i have been slacking of on the blogging over the last few months but getting swamped with uni work, but that's what you get for being a 3rd year student.

So i thought to start of the new year i would do a post on one of the film i am most looking forward to seeing this year VERONICA MARS THE MOVIE!!!

As you know I am a major Veronica Mars fan and i was so excited when i saw the first official trailer had been released and it didn't let down at all.

In the trailer we see that Veronica (Kristen Bell) is now a lawyer and living in New York with Piz (Chris Lowell) and has walked away from the world of private investigating but is pulled back in when Logan (Jason Dohring) calls asking for help when he is accused of killing his girlfriends ( this sounds slightly familiar) and this brings Veronica back to Neptune and back to her old ways.

Obviously the film wouldn't be complete without a high school reunion as everyone is reunited just like old times and it looks like so much drama its great!!

The film wouldn't be complete without some of our favourite characters Dick (Ryan Hansen), Wallace (Percy Deggs), Mac (Tina Majorino), Keith Mars (Enrico Colantonio), Leo (Max Greenfield) and Vinnie Van Lowe (Ken Marino) are all back in action with hopefully a few other familiar faces popping up in the action.

Check out the Trailer!!!

I am so excited!!!

and I am deffo on Team Logan.

What team are you on???

Team Logan or Team Piz

Veronica Mars is set for release on the the 14th March and I can't wait!!!

Veronica Mars First Film Footage

Video footage for the hotly anticipated Veronica Mars movie has been released today, and i for one was so excited to see it because i can not wait to see the film. After the big Kickstarter campaign that broke tons of records the film is getting closer to being released.

The footage shows Veronica (Kristen Bell) living in New York with Piz (Chris Lowell) but gets pulled back to Neptune when Logan (Jason Dohring) is accused of murder (again).

Check it out below

Rob Thomas revealed that Veronica hasn't been working as a private detective and part of the film is about her returning to the life she left behind.

Through the new promo we see some of our most loved characters including Wallace (Percy Deggs), Dick (Ryan Hansen ), Mac (Tina Majorino) and Vinnie Van Lowe (Ken Marino) along with interviews with the cast and crew.

But the ultimate question is whether you are Team Logan or Team Piz!!

I have to say as much as i like Piz i am deffo on Team Logan, i have loved him since the first episode.

What team are you on?

Veronica Mars

Sorry I haven't been posting in while i have had so much uni work to do other wise this post would have been written a while ago.

Congrats Marshmallows thanks to every one's donations Veronica Mars the Movie is going ahead.

If like me you religiously watched the watched the kickstarter page watching the donations coming in and were amazed when the page hit its goal in 11 hours breaking the kickstarter record and that isn't the only record that the project broke. It was the fastest project to get to $1 million and $2 million. It was the highest funded film project at $5,702,153 and is the 3rd highest funded project of all time. All thanks to the record breaking number of backers totaling 91585.

With the amount of money that was pledged we are in for a great film and i am already excited to see the film when it is release next year.

If you were lucky enough to grab and of the packages up for grabs congrats, if i lived in the states i would love to have gone for one of the red carpet packages it would be so cool to go to one and meet all the cast.

The packages up for grabs were amazing and was amazed how quickly some of them ran out, the Logan Lovers packages and the Comic Con packages all went in like 13 minutes!! and i still can't believe that someone pledged $10,000! 

I can not wait for all my favourite characters to be reunited on the big screen cause i was proper gutted when the show got cancelled.

Star Kristen Bell will be returning as the teen detective Veronica Mars with Jason Dohring, Percy Daggs, Ryan Hanson, Enrico Colantoni, Francis Capra and Tina Majorino. I hope creator Rob Thomas is hard at work on the script as expect everyone is going to have high expectations for the film.

I am so excited!!

I think this may start a trend as to shows getting a reboot

What shows would you like to see get rebooted????

Veronica Mars The Movie

For years there has been speculation about whether or not a movie of the brilliant teen detective show Veronica Mar will ever get made, with issues surrounding financial and studio backing. But know thanks to a brilliant idea, the film has got high hopes of being made. The film will be funded by fan donations, from everything between $1 to $10000 can be pledged to help raise the goal of $2,000,000 for the film to go a head. Their are different packages up for offer depending on how much you pledge, including signed merchandise  DVD copy of the film and TV series and at the higher end of the scale includes walk on roles and speaking roles in the film.

I love the series and was gutted when they cancelled it but i am so happy with the fact that its getting chance to be made into the film. At last glance the pot was up to $700,000 with 30 days to go and hopefully they will reach the goal for it to be made.

If you never watched the series before check it out, it stars Kristen Bell as Veronica Mars as private investigator working in her high school and then college as she works to solve various mysteries. The TV show also stars Jason Dohring, Ryan Hansen, Enrico Colantoni, Percy Daggs III and Francis Capra. The series was created by Rob Thomas who is behind the idea to get the fans behind the project.

I really hope that the project gets enough money to get the film made.

Fingers Crossed!!

Fanboys

This has to be one of my favourite films, never get tired of watching it, it always make me laugh.

The film is set in 1998 just before the release of the Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace and Eric Bottler (Sam Huntington) reunites with his high school friends at a Halloween party, Hutch (Dan Fogler), Windows (Jay Baruchel), Zoe (Kristen Bell) and Linus (Chris Marquette). Eric who now works in his fathers car dealership has had to give up his dreams from high school where as his friends haven't changed at all, and when he finds out that his best friend Linus is dying of cancer, Eric brings up the idea of breaking into Skywalker ranch (a plan they drew up in high school) so that Linus can watch The Phantom Menace before he dies, and so their road trip begins when Window's says that he has met someone online that can help them break into the Lucas ranch so they start their Journey off to Texas.

On their journey to Texas the guys stop at the future birth place of Captain James T Kirk and terrorize some Trekkies, their van breaks down and end up in a biker bar stripping and getting high of guacamole laced with peyote. When Windows finally meets his online friend Rogue Leader, lets just say that he gets quite a shock but its hilarious, but the guys are sent on their way to meet another person who can help them in Las Vegas. Along the way up to Las Vegas the guys get arrested, after some light speed action and have to be bailed out  by Zoe (Kristen Bell) who wants to come along with the guys.

When they get to Vegas Linus and Eric go off to meet their contact who turns out to be William Shatner (as himself) gives them the plans for the Skywalker ranch so that they can break in and they also bump into the Trekkies that they terrorized after realizing that the hotel they are in are having a Star Trek convention. Mean while Hutch and Windows have hit it off with two women and end up ditching Zoe (who is in love with Windows but he doesn't realize).

Eventually the gang end up at the Skywalker ranch and i am not going to say what happens next or whether Linus gets to see the film. But what i will say is that this is a film you need to watch! It is hilarious! Some of my favourite bits happen when they get into the Skywalker ranch. Kristen Bell is brilliant as Zoe, she stands out amongst the group of guys and holds her ground, especially when she threatens to burn an Ewok (love the Ewoks) . The appearance of Seth Rogan is so funny especially when he shows off his tattoos and his defense of Star Wars against the Trekkies. Even though the film has the sad story line of Linus's illness, you kind of forget about it during the film, even though they are on a quest for him to fulfill a wish before he dies. Along side the Linus's story line, Eric is trying to find his place in the world as he is unhappy at his fathers car dealership as he gave up his dream of being a comic book artist, and we see Eric struggling with the decision as to whether he should abandon the gangs quest and go home or to give up his opportunity to take over his fathers dealership and do what makes him happy.

The film was originally released on the 6th February 2009 and was directed by Kyle Newman with the story written by Dan Pulick and Ernest Cline. It also has some great cameos related to Star Wars and cult-hit/Sci-Fi films, not going to tell you who because why that would be spoiling the surprise, lets see how many you can spot.

This film is brilliant i really suggest watching it, even if you don't like Star Wars its still a really good film.

You can buy it for £5 from Amazon and it is definitely worth it.

Hit and Run trailer

Hit and Run is about a former get away driver who is in witness protection called Charlie (Dax Shepard), he messes up his identity in order to get his girl friend (Kristen Bell) to LA so she can get her dream job whilst Charlies former gang (led by Bradley Cooper) and the feds chase them down.

I just watched the trailer for Hit and Run and it had me laughing so much that hopefully the movie will hold up to the same standards. The film looks really good and i hope that the cast can deliver and what i have seen from the trailer it looks like it is going to be a good film.

Along with Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell and Bradley Cooper, the film also stars Kristin Chenoweth, Beau Bridges, Micheal Rosenbaum, Joy Bryant and Tom Arnold.

You should really watch the trailer!!

The film was written and co-directed by Dax Shepard and is set for release on the 24th August
