Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
Story Overview: Scott Pilgrim is a boy living in Toronto, Ontario Canada with his gay friend. He also plays in a band called Sex Bob-omb and is dating a high school girl named Knives Chau. Life is boring as a local bass player until he dreams up Ramona Flowers roller blading through his dreams. Scott soon meets her at a house party learning more about her. After finding out she works for Amazon he orders an item which she delivers to his door. From here on Scott starts dating Ramona, dumping Knives, but to keep the relationship possible, Scott has to battle Ramona's Seven Evil Exes.
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World is like a mixture of Fooly Cooly meets Street Fighter and then adding Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist to the mix. Michael Cera again plays a shy but loving guy which he always does. Their are alot of inside jokes about videogames, Arrested Development, X-men and other popculture medias. My favourite is the Arrested Development reference having Scott Pilgrim fight Roxanne "Roxy" Richter (fourth ex) since in the show AD the two actor/actress were a couple till Season 3.
The graphics were also excellent with making the movie look like a PS3 Anime kinda game. I wish I could of been in this movie so I could of seen myself look badass AND makeout with Mary Elizabeth Winstead cause she is hot, especially in her underwear * wink wink *. Over all the movie was great being fast pace and edgy. I hope another movie with this kinda originally comes around sometime soon.
Bonus: Deleted Scenes, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The Bloopers, Feature Commentaries With Cast And Crew, And More!
