Title: Scott Pilgrim VS. The World!
Post by: zuhane on September 02, 2010, 12:06:00 AM
My God. Oh my God. Ohhhhhh myyy Goddddd! OH MY GOD!!!! Did someone creep inside my head and uncover exactly what I'd like to see in
a movie, then make it? It's just absolutely incredible. 113 minutes of belly-laughing, gripping my seat,
screaming and cheering.

So, has anyone seen it? Don't let the crappy trailers put you off.

I'll be honest. It may not have A-list actors and a serious plot, but who gives a damn? It was just
a relentless barrage of hilarious jokes and fantastic, colourful, booming fight scenes! I'm gonna go
ahead and say that out of every movie I've ever seen in my life, this is the most entertaining and
gripping and entertaining one yet. Every single second is directed brilliantly, packed with jokes, puns,
visual ecstacy and brilliant homages to games like Zelda and Street Fighter. Stone me, smite me, I don't
care about your opinions. I think this is better than Avatar.

I mean, come on, the movie opens with the Zelda: Link to the Past tune playing, has brilliant
neon-induced, insane fight scenes involving laser hammers, chains, mad goths that shoot fireballs.

I implore you to go and watch this movie... unless you're epileptic. Then don't ever watch it.

Discuss!

Great movie. I felt it was rushed near the end, but good nevertheless.

Yeah, but you've gotta hand it to them. They've crammed nearly 6 years of comics into a single movie. Not bad!

I know what you mean though. A real wrap-it-up Hollywood ending at the end :/

Still, wish there was a six star rating for this movie!

Movie and comics don't interest me too much at all. However, I'm strongly conscidering picking up the game on PSN. It looks like a good old fashioned beat-em-up, which there aren't enough of lately.

BTW, the game.
Dammit Lucas.

Fun fact: This movie is absolutely failing at the box office.
To ****ing VAMPIRES SUCK.

Please, go watch this a couple dozen more times.
This REALLY needs to be rectified.

It's the trailers. They make it look awful. Kick-*** had the same problem!!

I saw Vampires Suck thankfully I didn't pay to watch it stopped after 5 minutes of pain (but I expected that after learning the guys that made it made well every other shitty parody movie in the last 5 years) on the other hand Scott Pilgrim was awesome.

I agree Kick-*** had the same problems with the crappy trailers and it also was awesome.

It's really sad actually. I hope they receive enough income to make some other
movie with the same directing/acting/brilliance!

No A-List actors? What about Lucas Lee?

Kick *** was great. Scott Plgrim didn't come to my stupid local hick movie theater though :(

This movie was pretty good, but I found some of the gags a little awkward. Then again, I'm the kind of person who cringes at any anime where girls in pigtails bounce up and down cheering at any slightly positive moment, or grow huge and super-deformed to express anger in the least subtle way possible. Which is to say, all anime.

I liked Kick-*** better.

Also, I suspect it may have tanked because people have grown leery of Michael Cera. Look at his last several movies where he served as the main draw. All have tanked.

Haven't seen it, don't plan on seeing it... long story...

I do want to see Kick *** though :D.


EDIT: Really? This forum censors the word ***?

Yeah, right? What a bitchin', shittin' bastard of a faggotty censor system we've got.

But now that I've gone and made this thread much less family-friendly, I want to see this movie so badly right now.

Everyone knows how to get around the censor. And it's okay for movie names and stuff. Just don't abuse it.

I saw Scott Pilgrim ages ago, got the game and downloaded the comics but haven't read them yet.
I disagree, I thought the trailer made it look awesome.

I haven't seen Kick-Ass.

It was Saikar's idea btw.

Read an article about the game and where it came from. Gotta admit that I've never heard of it before.
The graphic of the game seems pretty neat and retro though.

Yeah, heard the game's also pretty sweet! I'm not a console owner, so I won't be seeing the likes of that anyway! :p

The demo of the game sure was impressive. I really want it. I think it helps that the game and movie are both based off the same source material, but they're not specifically related to each other.

When I saw the trailers for Scott Pilgrim, I was turned off by it - I'm not a huge fan of Michael Cera, and the trailer I saw on TV just showcased his "acting". But I saw it anyways, and it was glorious. Michael Cera still sucked, but everyone else was frickin awesome. Vegan TK FTW.

This is beautiful movie! It is so well written and told that the mix of players, countries and languages is easy to follow. I also have to give a plus to the great production, excellent acting and many beautiful scenes.

Glad to see that people love this movie. Looks like it's gonna be a cult classic.

I wouldn't say cult classic at all. It's far more widely recieved than you seem to realise.

Lots of cult classics were widely received

A cult classic doesn't need to have 50 followers. It can still be one :D

In the game, one can purchase Scott's late video fees for $504.25.

EPIC.

Haven't read the comics (want to, though,) but loved the movie and the game so far.  I also need to see or read Kick ***, it looks pretty interesting.  And it has McLovin in it. :D
