saw the movie yesterday and i can't say i liked it. there were some funny parts but overall the movie was kinda boring. i don't like cera at all as an actor. i could not stand him at all.

 

[Stabby McSter]

she's one of the oldest people in the movie but she plays the youngest

thats how we asians work

i look like i'm 12

 

[Carnby]

i plan on geting the blu ray next week, but wow, the cover is terrible.

Yeah it was OK but I really hate Cera also. He is just such a huge pussy.

yup, she's gorgeous

Suits the role. Pilgrim isn't exactly a super-confident hard-arse is he...

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

He is pretty confident.

 

[ezekial45]

Yeah, he's confident all right. In fact, he's overconfident at times. Very self centered too.

IMO, Cera played it perfectly. The delivery of some of lines were just fantastic.

*interrupting Knives, when she's talking about Envy*

"I'm sorry, you were saying about me?"

The look on his face and his stance was just perfect.

:lol

 

[Fusebox]

He's funny, but confidence isn't usually accompanied by extreme awkwardness.

 

[ezekial45]

He's funny, but confidence isn't usually accompanied by extreme awkwardness.

He wasn't awkward in every scene he was in. There were scenes where he displayed douche-level confidence, without coming off as awkward.

 

[Zeliard]

He was generally pretty confident in the fight scenes as well, usually registering no more than puzzlement at the strangeness of it all, but still administering beatdowns.

 

[Fusebox]

Yeah he is surprisingly confident in the fight scenes but that side of his personality juxtaposes well with his normal awkward self.

 

[Altazor]

oddly enough I think the movie should've been longer.

and regarding Michael Cera... well, let's just say he gives me a different vibe from the books' Scott. I'm not saying it's bad or anything, I liked it but it's a different Scott from the book. I can't see Cera saying "I will be the best 24 year old EVER!" without sounding totally forced and/or unconvincing...

edit: but he certainly fits some aspects of Scott's personality. I think his interaction with Envy was spot on - awkward, uncomfortable.

Yeah, he was absolutely perfect on some aspects of Scott, and a little off on others. But I still loved it.
And I also think the movie should have been longer.

I like the DVD cover much more

blu ray version is blue. DVD version is red. other than that, there is no difference. they both suck.

 

[lunarworks]

I'm going to HMV on Yonge Street today to see if I can't get something signed by Edgar Wright.

I'd go the the special showing at Bloor Cinema tonight, but I have no desire to line-up for 4 hours.

Yeah, I'd like to go but getting free tickets seems like a pain in the ass.

I like the DVD cover much more despite the similarities.

 

[Blimblim]

How retarded is that, I can buy the blu-ray of that movie at UK online stores, and it's only going to be released in theaters next month here in France. No doubt it will be a huge bomb here.

 

[Stitch]

saw this today. thought it would be some entertaining nerd movie, kinda like kick-ass.
well, i was wrong and hated the movie. :lol i actualy facepalmed a few times. vegan police? really? poor thomas jane
i wanted to punch scott the whole time. the only character i cared about was knives.

btw the fight with the flaming sword and all these guys turning into coins reminded me of no more heroes. just less awesome

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I rabidly disagree!

 

[friskykillface]

:O jeez "knives" is 25 , Would

i agree the Vegan police made me :lol and go sfdfldkdkfdk so random

Spoiler

[lunarworks]

Pretty long lineup here outside HMV.

Bwah. So my chance of having any luck tonight is pretty much nil. Not even going to think about it.

On December 27 you can.

If you go line up at Bloor Cinema now you may have luck.

Too bad about the whole work thing. I'm not going to bother. I'll have the blu-ray in my hands on Tuesday and can watch it over and over and over again.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Just bought it off amazon. Wished they did a better job with the cover art.

 

[lunarworks]

I'm "lucky" that my boss is away this week and I have no work. :/

 

[VariantX04]

Not getting the hate for the cover-art. It looks attention-grabby and that's just what the movie needs at this point.

 

[Blimblim]

On December 27 you can.

Ok, I misunderstood then. I'll import the US release then, my blu-ray player is region-free

Full-Length Scott Pilgrim vs. the World Q&A Moderated by Guillermo Del Toro

Excellent watch. Guillermo mentions Shadow of the Colossus and Flower when discussing narrative in video games and how they do not necessitate an adaptation to film. Respeck. Mad respeck. And Michael Cera is absolutely hilarious. It turns out he's a Kim Pine man.

I know how you feel/felt. The movie had came two weeks ago here in germany but the US blu-ray is already on the way.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Also, we got Toy Story 3 pretty fuckin' late, uh?

To be fair, this movie was a bomb everywhere

 

[lunarworks]

Yay, went to the signing, got my Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead Blu-ray signed by Edgar Wright.

But, there was a nice surprise: They were signing cover slips for the Scott Pilgrim Blu-ray, ready to slip into the case when you buy the disc next week!

Is nobody selling this for less than $30 in Canada next week? =\ don't wanna have to wait for a bomba price

 

[Acid08]

This part was incredible. I saw this with a friend and when Tom Jane appeared we lost our shit.

Future Shop is selling it for $29.95... so technically that's less than $30.

 

[brotkasten]

I still think that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost would've been better.
