Kickstarter CEO: ‘Veronica Mars’ proves ‘the power of audiences’ | Inside Movies | EW.com:

When you go to watch Veronica Mars, if you haven’t already done so…

Think about this. It has been the greatest success for any movie launched by crowd funding!

Capitalism at work by the masses. Very cool.

They blasted through the goal of $2M and raised $5.7M from 91,000+ backers.

Right now I can watch it on Xfinity for only $17.99.

Gotta love it.
