Yeah, after Veronica Mars prepare for the Kickstarter flood.

Melissa Joan Hart Explains “Darci!”

Hi, Everyone!

First of all, I want to thank you so much for checking out this page. We are really excited to be on Kickstarter and even more excited about the prospect of making the movie, “Darci’s Walk of Shame.”

When Tibor gave me this script, I fell in love! With the plot, with the story and with the character. Darci is a very flawed woman who is just looking for love and happiness, not unlike everyone I have ever met. By playing Darci, I will get the chance to once again be in a fun and hilarious Rom-Com much like Drive Me Crazy...only all grown up and having a roll in the hay with the hot actors in the film! For those of you out there that still love and adore Sabrina, Clarissa and my new show Melissa & Joey, I promise that this comedy will deliver the laughs and silliness that you have come to know and expect from me and my taste in projects. I know it seems like a leap of faith but I am asking you to do what Hollywood won't, and that is to take a chance on me as the lead of a romantic comedy film. The more money we raise, the more likely this film will reach numerous movie theaters and impress those same Hollywood execs that have caused a stumbling block in my path to a more serious film career. For more info on the movies plot line and the prizes for your pledge amounts keep reading!

[Cynar]

kickstarter had a good run.

 

[SlowRevolution]

I have a good feeling that this will crush all previous kickstarter records.

and my new show Melissa & Joey

I had no idea this existed.

 

[BobTheFork]

I'd help kickstart a book full of Ferguson jokes.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

That idiot Tibor.

 

[Stet]

Kickstarter needs to rebrand into a cable network or something.

 

[Guevara]

Sabrina the middle aged witch.

 

[mugurumakensei]

Maybe if it was a Sabrina movie.

 

[ebullientprism]

Pledge $100 or more

Two of our main cast members (not Melissa Joan Hart) will follow you on Twitter for a full year. We don't know who they are yet, but we know you'll want them following you (on Twitter only)!

This has to be the saddest "reward" I have seen in ages.

 

[alr1ght]

I'm going to kickstart a remake of the Jump the Shark episode of Happy Days.

 

[Killthee]

 

[RM8]

I wasn't prepared to see her in her current shape. In my mind she was still Sabrina. Same happened with Christina Aguilera, in my mind she went from "Dirty" to her current self, haha.

 

[Viewt]

I'll be shocked if this makes it to $2Million. Sorry, MJH.

 

[John Dunbar]

Reading that, am I supposed to know who (or what) Tibor is?

 

[R1CHO]

My crystal ball is telling me that this is not going to end well.

 

[maquiladora]

This has to be the saddest "reward" I have seen in ages.

Holy shit, nearly choked on my coffee.

 

[lazybones18]

I say it won't make the goal

 

[Marty Chinn]

Man, she copied the Veronica Mars rewards and pretty much the whole Kickstarter campaign.

[JetBlackPanda]

MJH not looking bad for her age.. but wtf is this??? really..

 

[IdreamofHIME]

They should do a Kickstarter for a Salem movie, thought that gif is from a milk commercial not Sabrina.

 

[botty]

I would support a Clarissa movie.

 

[WedgeX]

This is underwhelming.

 

[PowderedToast]

This has to be the saddest "reward" I have seen in ages.

lol at

(not Melissa Joan Hart)

dear god

 

[FStop7]

Sorry, but I gave my all my money to Kenzie the RPG maker and the John Drake Flight Tracker.

Kickstarter's done.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

I think the real surprising thing here is that if you go to the list of projects MJH has backed, "Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist" is one of them.

Didn't see that coming.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Nobody is going to give Sabrina $2 mil unless she's doing an XXX crossover.

 

[Hot Coldman]

this isn't happening

sorry Melissa

 

[Meadows]

no way this makes $2m

 

[maquiladora]

lol at

dear god

You need to pledge x3 times that for her to follow you. Not a joke.

 

[chubigans]

lol at

dear god

Aw yiss, got Handyman #2 and Boy in Coffee Shop to follow me on Twitter!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Wow she has aged well. I was expecting her to be Lohan'd.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Aw yiss, got Handyman #2 and Boy in Coffee Shop to follow me on Twitter!

I don't want a Handyman following me. His Tweets are probably depressing.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

OMG.

Pledge $6,500 or more
You get to name a character in the movie. One of our cast members will speak the name chosen, or it will be featured prominently on a sign, where it will live in cinematic infamy forever! In either case, we will make every possible effort to make sure this name will remain in the final cut of the film. Please be aware that the name must be cleared by our legal advisors, and don’t even think about suggesting Hugh Jass, Ben Dover, Anita Hummer or anything else that elicits a snicker. We’ve heard them all. You’ll also receive two tickets to the Hollywood premiere (for which you will be providing your own travel, transportation and lodging) and two tickets to the after-party to rub elbows with the great and the near-great! You’ll also get the signed movie poster, the DVD and the PDF of the shooting script. ***ANY MINOR MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN

Somebody has to do this. And call the character Shitty Cunt Face or something equally appropriate.

 

[Diprosalic]

meh. nice try tho.

 

[morningbus]

Whenever I see her now, all I can think of is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulm9aee6cTY

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

This has to be the saddest "reward" I have seen in ages.

lol at

dear god

I was going to say that people seemed to be overly critical, but :lol. That's some really "out of touch" shit.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

So they followed the exact same model as Veronica Mars', and don't even know what half of it means? Okay then.

 

[SuicidalSteve]

Make a Sabrina movie sequel with Ryan Reynolds reprising his role

 

[AstroZombie]

This has to be the saddest "reward" I have seen in ages.

The Veronica Mars kickstarter did something similar.

 

[anaron]

lmao


girl, stahp.

 

[Ferrio]

Nobody is going to give Sabrina $2 mil unless she's doing an XXX crossover.

All my childhood crush fantasies would be fulfilled, especially if she did it in the original set of Clarissa.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

I understand that this gives actors a means to pursue pet projects, but I really wish that they'd let their publicist write the campaign descriptions. That was horrible.

It's very transparently a case of "hey, they did that! I want to do that, too!". No real thought at all put into it. Why would I want to fund another "Drive Me Crazy"? I'm not interested in funding a generic Rom-Com. That's why Veronica Mars worked so well: fans had been clamoring for a revival movie for years. The Mars Movie Project is not just another run-of-the-mill thing. It has a point. Not that I backed it, but the difference is obvious. This is just... there.

Maybe if it was a Sabrina movie.

This one would actually work.

 

[shira]

Read the whole thing.

Phil McCracken.

edit: boooo

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Oh, and also

I know it seems like a leap of faith but I am asking you to do what Hollywood won't, and that is to take a chance on me as the lead of a romantic comedy film.

Yeah, MJH? I've seen you as the lead of a romcom. A shitty one on ABC Family. It wasn't very good. There's probably a reason Hollywood won't take a chance on you.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Read the whole thing.

Reading the whole thing usually ruins my fun.

 

[Like the hat?]

That idiot Tibor.

Aww, beaten

 

[GJS]

We are pleased to be able to offer our awards to international backers, but please be aware that we cannot provide a DVD or digital download to anyone outside the U.S. or Canada. If you are outside of the U.S. or Canada and would like to purchase ANY awards package that includes the DVD or digital download, we will substitute another premium in its place at our discretion.

Really, how does that work with a crowd sourced film.

 

[RumblingRosco]

I saw her in Nine Dead (well, the last 25 minutes of it) and holy fuck at that stupid ending. What the hell.

No MJH, I will NOT Kickstart anything of yours! Even if I loved Sabrina and Clarissa as a kid.
