Veronica Mars (Movie)

pickarooney

I can't see the film having any cinema appeal given how few people would have even heard of the show. Where is the download going to be (legally) available?

S.M.B.

Same day as the theatrical release.

Rang my local cinema, he didn't know anything about it?

Got my no & rang back to say he was talking to a Warner Bros rep & said Dundrum's the only cinema to show it in Ireland

That's a real pity, was hoping to see it in the cinema. Does anyone know what outlets will have it on demand here on the day of release?

Yeah but most of the people who do go will be die hard fans so there should be a good atmosphere.

I think I'll venture as far as Dundrum, if I can't drag someone along I may have to take my first ever solo trip to the cinema.

Even if you go by yourself, you won't be alone, soda-pop.

(That came out creepier than intended. Oh well).

Here's the opening scene of the movie; it also acts as a kinda catch up type thing for those who never watched the TV show.

And tickets for Dundrum are now on sale. Woo!

Did he mean that Dundrum are the only ones thatcan show it or just the only ones who want to?

I'd love if they had a screening in Galway but I don't know how popular it would be and if a cinema would invest in it.

I asked him that as well, if its down to the cinema or the distribution company & he replied back saying, 'i couldnt really answer that as not wanting to tell you the wrong thing'

Although i remember asking him the same thing years ago, asking about The Royal Tenenbaums & had said only a few cinemas were showing it, i happen to be in Dublin a month later & saw it in the Screen Cinema on D'Olier St, a small cinema it is :eek:

It's not terrible but he's kind of just yelling and it's hard on the ears.

Sadly I gave up after 10 secs,

I've been putting off a rewatch of the series for years but with the film out in a little under two weeks I thought I'd best get started on it. Had forgotten just how much fun the show is, there's a real noir feel to it that never feels forced and it's the kind of light, easy to throw on fun that we really need more of. Not sure I'll be able to fit in all three series before my digital copy of the film is available but considering that I've been existing on 3 hours of sleep a night, there's a chance I may well have it wrapped up quite soon.

I'm interested to know how season three stands up to a binge rewatch.

I rewatched it a while ago and enjoyed 3 a lot more than I had the first time around.

It's not as good as 1 and 2 but it's not terrible.

Loved the show and really looking forward to going to the first movie I ever partially paid for!

'Twill be a solo trip to Dundrum as I was never really able to convince too many of my friends to give it a proper go. As with many, a synopsis that begins with "teenage private detective" doesn't really entice many people even if you do the whole "but it's actually really good and dark and noir...!"

In some ways I think going solo won't be too bad because there's going to be a real party atmosphere among the hardcore fans that do show up.

Afaik, there were more arcs in S3 than S01-2 & wasn't as interesting, but bearable.

I felt like that when asking the cinema manager when asking about the show, i'm pretty sure he thought it was a kids movie & was querying me a lot on the show & when he rang me back to confirm it wasn't showing, he mentioned "i think it's repeated on Neptune TV"

Geez, I've just seen in the latest update that VM is playing in 45 German cities.

*grumble*

I wish Ireland could have gotten, say - Dublin, Belfast, Cork, Galway.

Seeing this tonight.

I'll pop up some spoiler tagged thoughts later. No plot spoilers though. Just general thoughts.

It really is pretty fantastic. A lot of fan service but considering the way it was funded it's no surprise. Loads of returning characters and a few great cameos.

Writing was really sharp and there's potential for sequels.

Not sure how it will play for non fans though.

Mirage08

Wow how did you see it already!!

Tickets booked for Dundrum Friday night cant wait.

I came over to New York for it.

It really is excellent.

Seems to be the general consensus which is great news.

Did you go with one of the top tier kickstarter options then?

CastorTroy

So tomorrow's the big day.

Unfortunately I have to wait until Monday at least, if I get my code by then.

Any idea on the quality of the downloads? 1080p?

And just after posting I see the latest update. Using Flixster as the distribution method.

Celtise

Where can we digitally watch/download it tomorrow? Was planning on a trip to Dublin next week but not sure I can make it to Dundrum.

CastorTroy

If you backed it and are due a download, they'll send your code to you by email to download via Flixster.

If not a backer

Digital downloads of the Veronica Mars movie will be available to the general public on Flixster, iTunes, Amazon, and other digital retailers beginning on March 14. (And if you're looking for downloads of the television series, those are available now on iTunes and Amazon.com.)

Celtise

FYI Amazon Instant/Prime is unavailable outside of UK/NI.
