Seriously, do you guys not remember Cera's faux outrage at Wright for a Knocked Up interview a couple years back? It's absolutely fake.

Cmon, this is soooooo fake.
DeathbyVolcano said:
That knocked up video was way more obvious than this. This happened at the toronto premiere, towards the end she's not even talking into the microphone anymore, just shouting in his face. If this was a staged 'joke' don't you think it would look a little more organised and be you know... audible?

It's obviously not an elaborate stunt... just improv... But looking at it again, the interviewer says "Does Aubrey hate Michael Cera as much as Julie Powers hates Scott Pilgrim" and the whole thing is Aubrey riffing on that in a deadpan joke.DeathbyVolcano said:
It's not like Cera is "in" on anything either.. he just keeps messing with her mic playfully since he knows she was talking about him.

She's very obviously joking.

It's very rare we give out 10 out of 10s. A few a year. So far this year:
The Secret In Their Eyes
Inception
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
a movie in NYAFF called Confessions.
I'd give SP a 9 out of 10, but I completely agree with the other 2 I've seen.

I am so pumped for this tomorrow
OMFG IT WAS FUCKING AMAZING. Suck a bag of dicks Inception, Scott just KO'd you out of the running for my movie of the year!
Just...wow. It exceeded my wildest expectations by leaps and bounds. I'm actually thinking about seeing it again tomorrow!

And I actually liked the movie's final battle more than the comic's.....

Pretty much on the ball with my opinion. It was just so alive, and ungodly cinematic, and had so much fun with itself and did not give two fucking shits about anything other than being what it is.
This part probably got the most randomly loud burst of laughter out of me:
"We're going on at the same time? That's impossible!"
ACTUALLY NO

Yeah, it was a fucking awesome movie. Why bring Inception in this thread? Stop being childish.
"WE ARE SEX BOB-OMB! ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR!"
Loved it. First half was better because the comic fan in me liked it following the comics. The Edgar Wright fan in me loved the whole thing.
I had to pee so bad during the majority of the flick so the 'Pee Bar' and Steven 'peed pants' parts were awful for me :lol :lol :lol :lol

I don't really like Cera, but it was sick. Go in with an open mind and you will like his performance. He's just a douchey as Scott Pilgrim should beharSon said:

I loved it. Awesome adaptation from the comics. Sorry if this was already posted but yahoo.com thankfully gave us this handy guide to understanding the complexity of the movie; http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/plugged-in/decoding-scott-pilgrim-s-video-game-gimmicks/1407677

Oh well, sucks for the both of you for judging a movie by reading upon it cause that's the whole point, right?
That said, I saw the movie and 1. Loved it ALOT; 2. Loved the crowd in the theatre.
If you're a gamer, you're going to love it. If you're a comic book fan, you're going to love it, if you are looking for a good action/comedy/love-flick, you're going to love it.
I can't find anything confusing or anything to hate about it. Atleast not yet.

Just got back from a midnight showing. Loved it! I'm gonna go see it again on Saturday. The only part I didn't like was the fight
Everything else was GOLDEN.
with the twins.

I go into every movie with an open mind. I thought reviews were supposed to give insight into the movie? Well - they did, but they just seem to accentuate some of my fears about the project. Why the fuck would I go into a movie hoping to hate it anyways? That's just pissing away ten hard earned dollars.

Yeah, lots of funny moments! Exact same crowd reaction here in Toronto, and LOADS of Pligrim fans in crowd made it even more awesome.

It was great. There were many great touches.
Did you guys know: That when they are playing the DDR ninja game, when they make a bad move, it says "BAD." In reality, it actually says "B太D" The middle character means "fat" in Japanese, and I can presume Chinese as well, meaning that you are fat, so you cannot move fast enough to execute the moves in the game.
Anyway, I thought this was way better than the comics, but I may be in the minority. Ending was great. The girl playing Envy was super hot. My movie of the year, but to be fair, I just got back from living in Japan a week ago, so I haven't seen anything.
My favorite part was the
scene with Patel.

Also, the fight with the
twins was cool, because they fought with dragons. It only makes sense that Canadians would fight with their own mythical creature, the sasquatch.

I thought that was the worst part of the film, was I missing the point of it? Their fight was cool, but
the song and dance was awkwardly terrible.

That was such a fucking brilliant and perfect visual representation of what happens in my head when something like that comes out of my mouth, I laughed SO hard :lol :lol :lolciaossu said:

This is pretty much why I won't be going to see the movie. I like Wright's previous work quite a bit, but the style, tone and general subject matter (and, yes, the audience) of Scott Pilgrim is like chewing on tinfoil. There's a slight chance I might enjoy it, but I'm not in the mood to spend money in order to find out when it's very, very likely those two hours will be excruciating for me.

That's the point. In the book it comes out of fucking nowhere at the very end. It's supposed to kind of jump-start the whole idea of "Ok, you've met this kid and his friends, they might seem normal, but his life is anything but."Expendable. said:
