Kristen Bell On The Big Screen In FANBOYS



Cult favorite Kristen Bell wont let her TV show cancellation get her down...thank God. She is making a leap to the big screen as one of the leads in a new movie called FANBOYS. I'm actually excited about this. I'm not sure what her role is but I'm assuming she is playing a "fangirl". Rarely do we get to see females in the roles of fangirls (unless it's about cute boys) because generally speaking I think It's men who get submersed in the geek culture. I'm not sure why that is but the girl/boy geek ratio is really off. I really hope I'm not wrong because if she is playing the annoyed girlfriend I will be disappointed. Kristen Bell has done a great job of picking strong female characters (Veronica Mars), so here is to hoping she portrays us [geek girls] accurately. It also stars Jay Baruchel who I thought was really funny in UNDECLARED.


Plot Summary: In this riotous new road movie from producer Kevin Spacey, a group of friends who are avid Star Wars fans travel west to see the Holly Grail of all sci-fi movies, "Star Wars: Episode I." The year is 1999 and for these death star dorks, the Star Wars films are more than just movies; they are a way of life. So, after one of the group takes sick it is nothing short of a moral imperative that the friends break into George Lucas’ Skywalker Ranch to watch the seminal sci-fi picture together before its release. Enlisting the help of an estranged friend, who has traded in his Darth Vader mask for a proper day job, the adventure lays way to some extremely funny situations, including an outrageous brawl with some hard-core Trekkies.

A Man After My Heart


There is just something about a man with eyebrows like caterpillars that does it for me. Seriously, I know I'm the minority here but Jesus-how can you NOT fall in love with such a hairy creature. Here is Zachary Quinto and Kristen Bell at the SICKO premiere.
Kristin Looks cute, but who cares about her! Just Kidding-I love you Veronica Mars! I know Zachary isn't the most gorgeous man ever but I'm so in love with his eyebrows and arm hair that I look past everything else. OK guys, I'm officially a weirdo.

I heart Pizonica!


After last night's episode of Veronica Mars I totally became a cull fledged convert to the Piz/Veronica love shipper! Yeah I know I'm totally pathetic but I can't help it I think they are so cute together. Girlyness aside I think she will be stupid and take him for granted because It seems like the nice guy never wins. Why is it that Girls in general always go for the bad boy? Thank god I have learned better because trust me It always ends in heart break. I'm very excited for the TWO HOUR season( maybe series:( finale). Here are some descriptions and video for the finale.They are Spoilerish so beware:)
Official CW Description:
VERONICA'S SEX TAPE MAKES IT TO THE INTERNET - Weevil (Francis Capra) is arrested for selling fake debit cards to Hearst students, but claims he is being framed because of his criminal background, and asks Veronica (Kristen Bell) to clear his name. On Piz's (Chris Lowell) radio show, Keith (Enrico Colantoni) debates Vinnie (guest star Ken Marino, "Reno 911") about the upcoming election, while a tipsy Dick (Ryan Hansen) apologizes to Mac (Tina Majorino) for the way he has treated her in the past. Veronica and Piz make up after their argument about spending their summer apart, and a mysterious sex tape of the two finds its way to the Internet. Jason Dohring, Percy Daggs and Julie Gonzalo also star. Jason Bloom directed the episode written by Phil Klemmer (#3T5819).
Official CW Description:
VERONICA DISCOVERS THE ORIGIN OF HER SEX TAPE - Furious that Logan (Jason Dohring) attacked Piz (Chris Lowell), Veronica (Kristen Bell) tells Logan she wants nothing to do with him. Parker (Julie Gonzalo) confronts Logan about still having feelings for Veronica, while Piz assures Veronica that he had nothing to do with the sex video. Veronica, with Weevil's (Francis Capra) help, investigates how the tape originated and discovers a person from her past is linked to The Castle and pays them a visit. With the re-election campaign nearing, Keith (Enrico Colantoni) steps in to protect Veronica. Percy Daggs, Ryan Hansen and Tina Majorino also star. Michael Fields directed the episode written by Rob Thomas and Diane Ruggiero (#3T5820).

An interview with Rob Thomas


No not Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20! Rob Thomas is the creator of Veronica Mars. He recently had a chat with Kristin from the E network to set the record straight about the rumors going around about our VM!

From E!ONLINE:
Welcome, Rob Thomas! So glad you could be here.
Glad to do it!

Okay, first things first, what are you hoping to do with season four of Veronica Mars?I'd like to take Veronica right back to where we left her at the end of season three. We're pleased with the way season three ends. We really made an effort to set up great season-four storylines, and we did not give the network an easy way out in terms of ending season three with a bow—with a "there it is."

I smell a cliffhanger.
Yeah, we left the Mars family in some predicaments. We're hopeful that we get to come back and play those out.

What can you tell us about the episodes coming up? There are five left, correct?Correct. Paul Rudd is in the second, and he plays sort of a decrepit, aging rock star who was in a hot band 10 years ago and now has trotted out to tour college campuses just to earn enough money to survive. Piz is the person assigned to guide him through his trip to Hearst College.

What else?

We also have an episode about a guy who writes a book about his experience of being a child soldier in Uganda, and I wrote the episode largely because Ryan Hansen (Dick Casablancas) has been very involved in this Invisible Children cause. He first gave me information about it, and then Kristen Bell became very involved in it, yet it turns out to be almost exactly like the Oprah Book Club book about this child soldier. Then in the finale, we have the election for sheriff coming up, and Veronica and Keith, they both struggle at the end of the year. There's a bit of a return to the social status they had in season one, by the end of the year, that I think we get to in a really interesting way.

Now, we have some fan questions, if you don't mind tackling them. Ivan Jukica wants to know: Is it true that you are planning this as Logan's last—meaning if there were a season four that Jason Dohring would not be back?I'd like everyone to be back. Certain people we have in one-year deals, which I think is sort of widely known, because you've seen them cast in other shows. So, there are actors if you pay attention to, you know we aren't necessarily going to get back or get back in lesser parts, but I love Jason Dohring. My first choice would be to have him back for every episode next year.

Is he under contract for next year?
Oh, yes. Oh, yes, he is.

Interesting...

And the finale is named "The Bitch Is Back." We've taken some criticism for making Veronica too mean this year. People have found her mean at times. I am sort of a fan of her prickliness, and so "The Bitch Is Back" is our comment on "Oh, you thought she was mean? Here is what Veronica looks like when she is mean."

Sara Pryor: Are Piz and Veronica actually going to get together? Because that would be soooo adorable.I don't know how much I want to spoil on that, but they certainly have a journey and I can safely say that yeah, they develop a romantic relationship in these last five episodes.

Jennifer Humphrey: If the CW does not pick up Veronica Mars for another season, would you pitch the new format to a different network?That sort of thing rarely happens...I don't think it's likely. I think it could have been a possibility going in another direction—say we were on ABC and only had 5 million fans, and we were the exact CW demo target. Possibly it could have worked in reverse, but I don't think there is much hope going the opposite direction.

But it seems like you would seriously consider a movie?I still have story left to tell, and I'm thinking about a movie. We've got 3 million devoted fans, that's a $30 million movie if we just get our fans, and we can shoot a Veronica Mars movie for $15 million. So, yeah, I'll pitch that.

I'm sure if you started an online campaign you could get $15 million, no problem. I think I would personally pitch in and all the fans would pitch in. You can hold me to that.Yeah, fan-financed movie—that would be an original one!

Anything you want to say to the fans before we head out?We're still alive, we're still kicking. Certainly, the decision about Veronica Mars will be made in the next two or three weeks, so if you have a desire to send postcards or fly banners above CW headquarters, now is the time

I blame whoever cancelled Arrested Development. They are to blame for EVERYTHING


Veronica Mars (the show) is like the relationship that you know is over but you just don’t want to let go. It seems like the networks have been “canceling” the show from the get go. Yet some very hardcore fans have done everything in their power to save the show. I’ll admit, I signed the petition last year and re-signed it this year. Why? Because I my friends am the clingy girlfriend that wont let go. I guess you could say I’m kind of like “Karen” that way.



I love Veronica Mars (or as my bf and I call her VM). VM is a kick ass strong female lead role. She might look like she’s cross-eyed sometimes but that’s ok. I'm Just kidding I love her (thats just a bad pic). She solves some really cool (and lately not so cool) mysteries, goes to college and has a snarky attitude! She is also the only character on TV other than the folks on Battlestar that can get away with saying the word FRAK. She’s a geeks-girl role model that’s for sure!



VM is not on tonight. Instead “The Pussycat dolls” is on in its place. They are what all women should strive to be. Tranny looking HOEBAGS.
