It is past 2.5 Million. I can now to go bed

. I hope tomorrow when I get up it will be at 3 Million.

I will be watching this every day until it's done

. Of course likely less frequently once things slow down a lot more, but will still check every day.

Glancing at the comments (on the Kickstarter) there seems to be a ton of international fans waiting for rewards outside of U.S., willing to pay for it.

MikeScott · 03-14-2013, 09:02 AM

Yeah, I've seen plenty of interest from international fans. Somehow open this up to them and see how much money comes in.

Rob tweeted they ARE working on that as well. Plenty of time!

International fans! We are working out thorny issues so we can include you. We're trying to make this happen! #Veronicamars @IMKristenBell

maybe the problem is something to do with the fluctuating currency exchange rates? Like if they pledge now, but it's not billed until a month from now when the total wouldn't be the same?

Plus, higher costs to ship their rewards.

I would think the high shipping costs have a lot to do with it. Especially since they doubled this year. I do believe they'd have to increase the amounts for international fans. They'd make nothing on a $25 donation where they'd have to have a t-shirt printed up and shipped internationally. They could even lose money on that.

Just because this is above goal don't let that stop you from donating if you haven't already. I don't think all of this money will be going to the movie. That's a lot of goodies they're going to have to send out to people.

It broke the record by $8,732 as of 7AM PST

MikeScott · 03-14-2013, 02:19 PM

Hell yeah! I was a little worried when not much action had happened while I was sleeping!

I actually woke up this morning and checked my phone (have the page bookmarked

) to see where it was at.

Kevin Williamson Tweet:

Dawson, Joey, and Pacey go to Veronica, "Jen didn't die of a heart thingy, we believe she was murdered. Please help."

I'd see that

.

Dawson's Creek was my early teen life. I was obsessed!

Nick1138 · 03-14-2013, 02:30 PM

I still can't believe how well the campaign went yesterday alone. I was showing the little video to my girlfriend last night and she couldn't believe that within those 4 minutes, pledges jumped up by just over $4k.

Can't wait to see what they'll work out for the International folks!

MikeScott · 03-14-2013, 02:35 PM

Hell, I wish they would have set the goal HIGHER. They probably could have taken down 3 Million yesterday.

Britnasty · 03-14-2013, 02:49 PM

It'll be at 3M by the end of the day!!!

MikeScott · 03-14-2013, 03:04 PM

I wish everyone could see how awesome Bell is. But her movie roles have been disappointing. She was adorable in Hit & Run, but no roles have come close to her awesomeness on Veronica Mars. One of my friends actually hated her for so long because she was always turning up in movies as "b*tch" characters and she'd never watched Veronica Mars. But she thought her and Dax were really cute in Hit & Run and now that I've shown her some interviews with her I think she's warming up to her. If I could just get her to watch Veronica Mars I know her opinion would be 100% changed. Bell seriously could have caught on with better movie roles. She seems like one of the most genuine people in Hollywood.

Have you watched House of Lies? It's a fun show, and shes good in it. It's no Veronica Mars, though. (But then, what is?

)

I also rather enjoyed Reefer Madness, if you like musical comedies.

I own Reefer Madness. Please, I'm a Bell fan

. But I have not started House of Lies yet. One of my friends who adores Bell too and we have pretty similar taste (they also donated $100 to the VM movie Kickstarter

) has said it isn't very good. I still want to see it though of course.

Really? I like the show a lot. Bell isnt the star of it, but I'd say she's the second lead behind only Cheadle. I'd say at least give it a shot.

Pounder · 03-14-2013, 03:46 PM

I gave $0 towards this.

Nick1138 · 03-14-2013, 03:49 PM

I'll more than likely up my pledge once the International issues get figured out. I'd love to see this reach $5M by the time those 30 days are up.
