I just finished watching Scott Pilgrim

[Ickorus]

It was good, totally mindfucked me at the start since it was one of those movies I went into knowing absolutely nothing about it.

 

[BstrdChris]

I quote the dvd cover - "prepare to have a new favourite movie."
Yeah.

i got all prepared for a whole lotta nothin. they actually gave me my money back.

Not a fan then? Every man or woman to his of her own, I guess...

a fan, yes. just not so much of the movie. i own all of the books. i REEEEEEEEALLY just don't like that Michael Cera kid.

 

[Bigsmith]

Loved it, went to read the manga it was based off.

Love the manga even more.

Its not a manga its a comic book. There is a difference. Sorry to get snobby but calling the comic books 'manga' is like calling Skooby-Do an anime.

Ah yes, just looked up the wiki page. I stand corrected. May have to get onto the local Waterstones for putting it in the Manga section.

Secondaly, I forbid you to ever making that reference ever again. Not only because it's horribly wrong, but because it's just a horrible show, even for a kids show.

 

[Anezay]

I actually think Michael Cera works as Scott Pilgrim. The fact that he's an unlikeable, immature little shit with no redeeming qualities is kind of the point.
OT: I thought the movie was fucking awesome.

 

[gphjr14]

Despite Michael Cera's annoying voice the movie made up for it with good acting and jokes usually at Cera's expense. I say 4 out of 5.

 

[rapidoud]

Did not like it.

Epitomised everything of pop culture and so I was very surprised that I loathed it, and everyone I know loathed it.

It's spelt Scooby Doo. And I'll have you know it's an animated artpiece.

[/sarcasm]
;D

Ah thanks for the spelling, the phonetic hard 'k' always throws me off, and the spell checker doesn't help. Nah, I wouldn't go with animated artpiece. It comes across as being too pretentious for a show concerning a talking dog and halloween costumes. I would define it as an 'Animated Western Cartoon'. Or perhaps an 'episodic motion drawing series'.

I am now going to spend half an hour trying to define Scooby Doo, god damnit. X3

 

[Koroviev]

I wasn't particularly impressed by it, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.

 

[LikeDustInTheWind]

Awesome movie, awesome-er book. I do see how some people wouldn't like it but I personally think it's FUCKIN' AMAZING. It's also nice to see a bunch of other people with avatars from it here.

 

[Tucker154]

best movie ever enough said

This,it made me a happy geek

 

[Bara_no_Hime]

So yeah I finally got round to watching it, I thought it was really quite good, good music, good actors and an amusing script, I'd rate it 4.5 out of 5. So did anybody else like it as much as I did?

Best romantic comedy Ever. ^^

Also, I loved the Revolutionary Girl Utena reference. ^^

I agree, I wholeheartedly agree. But when you are looking for a show which is the poler opposite to an anime Scooby Doo is the best answer. Even if it is terrible.

 

[Innegativeion]

Very funny, quality film. Never read the comic myself, but I saw it around prior to watching the movie, and I was kind of off-put by the actor for scott, he just didn't seem anything like how I'd imagined him to look or sound... but that's just me being weird. Loved it otherwise.

 

[Peteron]

Eh...it was alright, liked the game more. Movie felt a bit rushed, which is understandable, but still. Never read the comics.

 

[Ilikemilkshake]

awesome film, i would have prefered it to be split into maybe another film or 2 so more of the comics could have been explored, but apart from that i think it was pretty good

 

[major28]

that movie was a bacon cheeseburger with awesome sause

 

[punksnotdead]

Yeah it was pretty good. Although I think Scott's band should of been a Nintendocore band.

I loved this movie. I love it more than Star Wars.


Also, Scooby-Doo's not bad at all. My favorite shows being The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, and the recent Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Most of the movies in the past few years (save Zombie Island) and "What's New Scooby Doo?" were all trash, though.

 

[drisky]

Funny, when the movie first came out half the escapist said they hated it, now 90% loved it. Oh how opinions change when they actually watch the movie rather then saying they hate it because Michael Cera is in it.

I saw it on release day, I get extra nerd points.

 

[theonlyblaze2]

Saw it in theaters because I couldn't see Machete. I am very happy my friend's mom is so overprotective. Best movie of that year and one of my top ten. Plus, it was the only time I have ever heard a full theater laugh until they cried all at once.
