Damn, I talked shit about this earlier in the thread (Michael Cera starring as Michael Cera), but after seeing the previews, this looks like a really fun movie.

Crow, whatever whatever.

Now that I've seen it I can finally listen to the score samples off Amazonk. God, Godrich is so amazing.

I realized it might be the first soundtrack I can think of that's taking advantage of the digital space by releasing EVERYTHING in the score even if it wouldn't have fit on a CD. (Unless I'm mistaken, they're only releasing this digitally, right?)

The soundtrack to this movie is outstanding, both the songs and the score. I'm likely going to wind up owning both, which will be the first time I do that in a long, long, long time. But the
Bass Battle
song was so awesome, and.. hell, like, ALL of the music was so awesome. Fuck! I can't wait to see this movie again!!!

I wish there was a way Edgar Wright could make trailers for the Lucas Lee movies to put on the DVD/BluRay.
Since they did film a scene from "You Just Don't Exist" for the movie, which was totally awesome.

Wait wait wait. Where are you hearing these samples? I just checked Amazon and I didn't see them there...

Edit - N/M. Checked the German Amazon, and there they were. :D

Well i just read a big spoiler for the movie by mistake in tvtropes. Fuck my life.

If it's the same spoiler I read, (The only one I saw on TVT was involving
Nega Scott
) don't worry about it. It's still a huge WTF moment even knowing about it before hand. I was really pissed and worried about it before I watched the movie but it still caught me totally off guard and is completely bad ass.

Yeah, that scene was amazing. I so love the liberties Wright takes with the source material. They're so perfect for the movie and, even though there's a lot of big divergences from the books, they fit SO well and are really in the true spirit of the Scott Pilgrim vibe. Can't wait to see it again.

A few dozen more times.

:D

Don't know if people are still paying attention to reviews, but the movie got a great review in Rolling Stone (three and half stars).

Scott Pilgrim is a breathless rush of a movie that jumps off the screen, spins your head around and then stealthily works it's way into your heart. Just revel in those clutter-free last moments when two people finally get enough of a grip on who they are to make an honest, human connection. It's a game changer.

Also, there was an interesting interview with Michael Cera. I feel like i have a better appreciation for him now. He's actually a pretty interesting guy that i have a lot in common with.

I think every single person in this movie was cast flawlessly, except that I was not cast as Scott Pilgrim. But Cera does a great job in my place so it's almost not a big deal.

The marketing budget must be pretty damn huge, though. I am not sure if this movie will ever make a profit...
Click to expand...

My friend and I were talking about the marketing. I had said to her I think the film will do well because it seems like one of those movies that do well possibly because of word of mouth if it garners enough positive reviews. She countered that she didn't feel that was completely the case because she sees the marketing for the movie just about everywhere she goes beyond the 4,000 TV ads aired.

I remember being kind of in awe when I saw this trying to get to the Tron panel (and failing :( ) at SDCC:

Yeah Scott Pilgrim totally owned the shit out of ComiCon.

The word of mouth for this movie IS insanely positive, though. I think it'll do fine at the box office. It won't bomb, but it won't be a miraculous hit.

Can anyone really predict how this movie is going to do? I could see it flopping, or I could see it becoming a breakout hit.
