Okay, seriously - I will try to make my next entry involve something other than news about her - honest. But I mentioned yesterday that Ausiello at TV Guide had one last piece of quotage from his Q&A with Kristen, so I'll just include it here. It's not really spoilery, so no cut necessary:
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
As always, she's classy and diplomatic in her response to the end of the show. I mean, at the time, no one thought that would be the END end - and all parties (and fans) involved seem to still have that creative spark and desire to eventually continue the story in some form, so perhaps it really isn't. But still, it serves well as a season finale - it just begs to be followed-up with more.
All of what follows is just my opinion, obviously, but I'm gonna cut it just in case:
Alas, all of that pretty much just springs from my own biases and fears - which manifest mainly because I adore the show at an almost unhealthy level. Perhaps a more self-contained story, one that isn't spanning a whole season or several episodes, would have a completely new idea that Rob hasn't disclosed anywhere - even to Kristen herself, who figures the ideas pitched to her for season four are what a potential movie would be about.
I guess waiting and hoping are all we can do right now. *sigh*
Kristen Bell is awesome.

Question: Thank you for the awesome Kristen Bell interview. Now give us those leftover quotes. I'm dying to find out what she thought of the Veronica Mars finale!— Nicole
Ausiello: Here you go: "I kind of feel like the way they left it open was the perfect wrap-up to the show. Because had they sealed it in a nice clean box, that's not what the show is about. The show was not about satisfying the viewers. The show was hard to follow, the show was really witty, the show was really sassy — it was for intelligent people. So I think it was wrapped up really nicely. That being said, I knew some things that were going to happen in Season 4 that I'm not going to dare say, 'cause that's probably what the movie is going to be about." I, naturally, pressed her for even the teeniest of scoopbits, but she wasn't budging. "I wish I could tell you," she responded, "because it's really good." No worries. I'll get it out of her next time I see her.
