A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS: 

• 91,585 fans missed the show so much that they kickstarted a movie! The third-highest funded Kickstarter project at that time! 
• So off we all go back to Neptune to see some old pals, like Wallace! Principal Clemmons! Gia Goodman! Sweaty Luke! Corny! Aaaand Logan being suspected of murder.
• Plus some new pals, like Mac’s hot new hair! Piz’s boss Ira Glass! a new Sheriff Lamb who is just as shitty as the old Sheriff Lamb! And an intense Logan fan in a wig.
• We’re not so pleased to see the Pizvonica sex tape again, and it causes a big punchup at the high school reunion!
• We also reluctantly reunite with Celeste Kane, as she shoots the now upstanding husband and dad Weevil.
• And even though Veronica’s supposedly happy living in New York City, in a relationship with Piz, about to become a big shot lawyer, you know she can’t resist a Logan in distress.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate the first half of Veronica Mars: the 2014 movie, and delve into such mysteries as: how Keith has such a spacious lovely home these days, Dax Shepard's van, why Mac and Wallace force the heinous reunion on Veronica and poor poor Piz, and leg erotica. 

Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this movie includes storylines concerning murder, violence and sex tapes.
