I'm looking forward to it, especially the final book.Can't wait to see how Scott's journey ends.

I'm probably gonna go back and read the first five volumes in the next few weeks leading up to the final volume, because I'm pretty fucking excited to see this end.

Kim better have a happy ending or i'll be so pissed.

I'm more excited for the final book than the movie. The first trailer had me pumped, but then I saw the extended one before Get Him to the Greek. I don't know if it was Michael Cera's acting (I typically like him) or the translation of the quirkiness of the books onto the big screen, that made me hesitant about how the movie will turn out.

>>63447
Personally I found it was a really good translation from what I saw in the theatrical trailer. Also the idea of Micheal Cera as Scott is growing on me.

>>63451
Yeah! When first hearing about Cera playing Scott...GOD NO.

But now... maybe things will be ay oh kay

>>63457
I think that was everyone's first impression.

If it wasn't Edgar Wright I'd assume it would suck.

But Edgar Wright.

As for the book, its been too long and I lost interest after the fourth volume.

This thing reads like an indie movie. I don't hate it yet.

Wait, wait, Isn't the book coming out in July? I pre-ordered it from Amazon, and it said it would ship mid-July.

>>63780
Yeah, but the movie only follows the plot of first half of the books, then it goes off and does it's own thing. At least that's the story as I've heard it.

I just read all of what was available so far. I'm not big on the style because half of the characters look like the same person, but I like it because it's like No More Heroes: Toronto Edition.

Part of me hopes that they location drop in the movie as much as they do in the books because Sneaky Dees is my homebar, but at the same time I hope they don't. Because Sneaky Dees is my homebar.

>>63793
I'm pretty sure they've finished all the filming and whatnot considering it's coming out in two months.

>>63800
Well obviously, but that has nothing t do with what I'm talking about. I just think if they show the bar in a big summer movie, it'll be even harder to find a table there for the rest of the season.

>>63793
>No More Heroes Toronto Edition

oh my god

Everything makes sense now.

Also it comes out late in the season, so it should be fine.

I want to go to a midnight showing but I will probably A) be in Ottawa where I have no bros who are willing to go late night or B) Be in Toronto and celebrating super important family holiday.

Also The Expendables comes out the same day so OH GOD DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE

>>63836
FUCK WHAT?

WHATTTTT?

Well fuck that Expendables takes priority over everything forever.

>>63836
OH FUCK.

Yeah, will probably see Expendables first...and maybe only the Expendables as I rarely ever go to theaters nowadays...

>>63837
>>63842

Derp.

>>63846
I knew when Expendable was coming out, I jut didn't know when Scott Pilgrim was out other than "August"

>>63831
Ah, well I guess what I meant was "well it's done filming, so if they haven't already then the bar probably isn't appearing" but whatever.

>>63846
Eh, I'd still probably see SP first or probably just see the two in the same day. More excited for SP though.

I'm way more excited for Scott Pilgrim than Expendables, mainly because I have this sinking feeling that Expendables is going to suck hard and won't be 1/16 as awesome as we all hope/imagine it can be, and SP has Edgar Wright, which is pretty much a straight-up guarantee.

Considering the Expendables spent half their budget on star power, probably. One thing I hate is when you have too many actors trying to act over each other.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3180026

Also....maaaan, I forgot Edgar Wright was doing this...

>>64403
KICK ASS
MIYAMOTO APPROVES

Clearly, the solution to the Expendables and/or Scott Pilgrim problem is simple: see one, wait around in theater with ticket stub, sneak into the other. Worked for Iron Man and Speed Racer. And TMNT and Grindhouse!

Also: seriously you guys have no idea how fucking stoked i am for this movie i am about to go blind with WANT WANT WANT and it's not even fucking JULY yet. Ever trailer thus far had me giggling like an asshole. I NEED this movie.

>>64403
>Director Edgar Wright has managed to secure permission to include music from The Legend of Zelda in the upcoming film adaptation of Scott Pilgrim, but only after showing the film to Shigeru Miyamoto himself.

>>64560

But I want to throw money at both of them!

I guess I'll just be going to two movies that weekend.

Probably going to see at least one opening night. Which one depends on who I go with.

http://www.scottpilgrimthemovie.com/avatarCreator/

Avatar creator deal. (No, I couldn't change the rating)

I just finished book 1, about halfway done book 2.

This shit.

Is amazing.

Haven't read the series and never heard of it until I saw the trailer for the game, but I read the books are merely just a bunch of anime and game references to appease to nerds. Is it actually something more than that or is that about the sum of it?

>>64860
It's a good series that happens to have a lot of little references.

>>64785
WHY CAN'T I STOP PLAYING WITH THIS THING

>>64860
If you intend to ever read it, don't spoil it by researching it or asking around. It's best to read Volume 1 with no idea what you're in for. I hope they can preserve that when they make the movie.

>>64879
read vol. 1 all the way through too.

>>64860
I don't remember any anime references--but then, they'd have to be very broad and commonplace for me to catch them. I do remember the video game references. They aren't the usual side jokes and tidbits, tossed out to prove that the author grew up in the same culture as you--"Wow, college registration is like playing Berserk, ha-ha". They are oddly incorporated into the plot, and I think a reader would still get the point, even if they'd never seen a video game in their lives.

Just started reading it. I'm liking it a lot so far, and the Monkey Island reference in volume 2 made me smile.

How come I never heard of any of this before today?

I've seen the game and the flash last week but I have no idea there was more!

I just came really hard to Knives and Kim making out. I'm a girl.

Just thought yall should know.

Bump for vol. 6 in two days

>>75079

Oh god. I had forgotten. Thank you for the reminder!

>>75079
oh no i'll be in non-comic-access areas

oh no

Its already out in Canada.

>>75102
CANADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>75102
AWW YEAH GURL

>>75102
Cool. I'd be all kinds of FFFFFFF, except I'm probably going to the midnight release party at my LCS tomorrow night.

Going to the midnight release tomorrow with my bros. I'll be dressed as Stephen Stills, we'll have a Wallace, Scott, Romona, and maybe a Lucas Lee with us.

SOMEONE GET THIS SHIT ON THE INTERNET YA

>>75191
Awesome

>>65814
Double awesome.

>No midnight premieres anywhere in Houston or even a good 150 miles of Houston.
Goddamn, this city sucks.

>>64578
My head axplod.

You guys will bump this thread when scans are out, right? Being that going onto 4chan for scans is asking for trouble.

Hey! Wallace kills Scott!

>>75512
Hey! Rosebud is the sled

>>75513
Hey! Verbal is Keyser Soze.

I asked the girl at the local bookstore if Scott Pilgrim 6 would be out tommorrow. She said they weren't scheduled to get it until the 30th... of August.

Read it twice fucking loved it.
Now time to sleep

>>75530

Go to a comic store then, you betrayer

>>75598

I live in the middle of buttfuck nowhere in the midwest. The last comic book store we had here closed a year ago, and even then it had nothing newer than 2 year old Spiderman comics.

>>75607

then use an online comic store

Read it last night after I got home; OH SHIT, YEAH! Goddamn was that awesome. Gonna read it again today before I review it.

I made sure I didn't go to any /co/ board until I read it, I got a bad copy at the midnight premiere and had to go back a few hours ago. I just read and it was awesome.

When Scott was killed it was a real "HOLY DICKS!" moment for me. In fact, I briefly considered writing "HOLY DICKS!" in the two blank pages between him being stabbed and him going to what ever weird purgatory with ramona.

Scan link?

>>75833
I'll give it to you, but I want you to know that your mother and I are very disappointed in you for being too cheap to buy it.

>>75844
I'm sorry ma and pop
Love youuuuuu

NOW ALL I NEED IS THE VIDEO GAME AND THE MOVIE.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

I loved it :'D

It was ok. A bit silly though.

Well, that about ties it up. Cliche ending, but goddamnit, I paid for that cliche and I love it just the way it is.

Although I was disappointed not to see that weird-ass tentacle monster fucker from the Movie trailer, so I don't know what the hell THAT'S about.

I really enjoyed the book. As >>75944 said, the ending was a bit cliche but I still loved it. Also, Scott and Kim start a band again, but without Stephen
And I grinned a bit when I saw that Ramona had a shirt that says hipster..

I'm not entirely sure if there was deeper meaning to the story or not. That's not necessarily a bad thing I suppose.

The ending was a bit too symbolic, though. I get what the writer was trying to convey, but it didn't really feel like it belonged with the rest of the story.

I enjoyed it.

You don't even realize how happy I am right now.

This is actually a POSITIVE discussion on Scott Pilgrim, where nobody uses the phrase "hipster garbage". I got so pissed at that.

Anyways, I could talk forever about my excitement for the movie/game, and how much I loved Volume 6, but I'll just say that Stephen Stills coming out of the closet made me fucking jizz

>>76205

>This is actually a POSITIVE discussion on Scott Pilgrim, where nobody uses the phrase "hipster garbage". I got so pissed at that.

Yeah, try to avoid 4chan's /co/ if you ever want to have rational discussion over... well, anything...

Okay...so for whatever reason, the download didn't work for me.

IT WAS A SIGN.

So I went and bought the book like a good person. I'm not saying I'm above anyone thought because I still tried to download that shit first. hahahaha

I enjoyed the end. I just wish there was more Kim but it's probably just because she was my favorite character.

I'm so pumped for the movie though. UGHHH
and this last book made me like Knives so I'm happy

http://piggyliciouspigpen.blogspot.com/2010/07/scott-pilgrims-finest-hour-reviewening.html
WHORING TIME: I put this up last night. And it's SPOILER FREE!

I loved the shit out of this book

>>76233
Yeah, I love Kim, but I feel like she got all her great moments out of the way in volume 5, and this one really was supposed to finally resolve Scott's shit. Which I think it did well. It sorta felt rushed on the first read through (I think it's because I was so excited that I just blaster through it), but I flipped through certain parts a second time and it seemed to flow better.

>>76252
I think that was a great review.
And I agree with what you said about Kim resolving her story in Volume 5. There wasn't much left for her, say, relationship-wise. Except for Scott in Volume 6 for a bit.

I used to really dislike Knives but now I love her. When she's not an obsessed psycho, she's actually just a sweet girl. And Envy isn't a complete bitch anymore!

Spoiler'd for your safety~~~

"Not enough Kim Pine. I understand that all those backstories and subplots couldn't possibly make it into the movie, but couldn't Wright have found a way to better highlight Scott's friend Kim Pine? Sure, she gets some awesome one-liners, but she never looms particularly large in Scott Pilgrim's precious movie life. If there's anything that will leave fans feeling cold, it's the lack of Kim."

Well, poop.

>>76387

Thanks for posting that, it was an interesting read.

I can't help but be curious about this part:
"And the appearance of a certain character at the very end of the movie struck me as a well-intentioned attempt to include a significant idea from the book that ultimately left the final scenes slightly overstuffed."

I heard a rumor that there's going to be no indication of Stephen Stills's sexuality at the end. But since that was quite a shock at the end of Volume 6, I wonder if that's what the article meant...

Just read it, thought it was kinda cool how the whole "Scott-lives-in-a-videogame" thing was really just his ADD... and later it was just Gideon.
Could have tied things up better, definately. But it's a satisfying ending.

So, yeah. Good times.

Reading through volumes 1-6. Will post my IRC comments as I go.
Volume 1:
<TheProbe>: I just hit the first song page.
<TheProbe>: Yup
<TheProbe>: this is TOTALLY hipster
<The-Bard>: TheProbe I dig it
<TheProbe>: I'm not complaining, I'm just saying, there is no way you can claim it's not hipster after page 14

<TheProbe>: A delivery girl using your dreams as a shortcut

<TheProbe>: finished volume 1: Hipster status: wearing a scarf in July.

Volume 2:
<TheProbe>: Evil because he's a sell out.
<TheProbe>: Also: scott is completly unlikable
<Maritova>: you talkin bout scott pilgrim?
<TheProbe>: yes

<TheProbe>: Vegan recipe in the middle of the book
<Maritova>: oh great that fruit i ate was vegan
<Maritova>: D:
<Maritova>: it's starting
<Maritova>: i'd better go make nachos
<TheProbe>: trying to use meta commentary as a substitute for humor
<TheProbe>: I'm iffy on this book so far

<TheProbe>: I think the first character I actually like is Chris Evan
<TheProbe>: I mean Lucas Lee
<Askal>: Probu confirmed for gay for Chris Evans

<TheProbe>: 2 volumes and I'm not yet sold, ON TO VOLUME 3

If you aren't sold by now, you probably won't be.
It's a thing from the start, y'know.

>>77272
Whatever you say, buddy.

>>77276
Yeah, I finished it all in one sitting actually. I just stopped updating here because my thoughts on IRC just got more and more scattered.

>>77330
And... thoughts?

>>77336
Not my thing. Especially the humor. I kept waiting for the second shoe to drop on most jokes, but it rarely did.

>>77346
Told ya.

>>77361
Eh, only took 4 hours. I don't regret reading it, especially with the movie coming.

You know, people tended to think that all the vegan stuff in the books was because O'Malley is vegan. He's not. The vegan shepherd's pie thing was just sort of an experiment in doing something you can't really do in a TV show or something, the way it's cut between the story that's going on, like stills is in the background saying all this stuff for no reason.

And the reason being vegan gave Todd Ingram superpowers is making fun of vegans who act like they're so much better than you because they're vegans, and you can't just be vegan because it's so hard. He basically thought it would be funny is that smug self-satisfaction came with actual superpowers.

>>77415
And you know this how...?

>>77430
Because...

...>>77415 is actually Scott Pilgrim.

Scott Pilgrim is FLCL, post-college.

-Mysterious girl with unnatural hair color that transports things through subspace inside peoples' minds
-Rickenbacker bass guitar used like a weapon
-Mundane emotions and events turned into over-the-top spectacles
-Focus on leaving one's youth behind and becoming an adult

Just came back from a private screener thing...

It was awesome. Amazing. This will not disappoint any fans of the books.

>>77865
How was the ending?

>>77865
Good to hear.

>>77870
It basically ended the same way, I was surprised. It was really fucking funny. The battles felt a lot more organized, and Gideon is a lot more central. It was an excellent adaptation.

  Scott Pilgrim vs. the Animation

Went to the midnight premier in my town.

Loved it. I brought along friends who didn't read any of the books and they really enjoyed it.

Also:
I've never loved Young Neil as much as I do now. He's sadly adorable through out the whole movie.

Kim Pine was a disappointment for me though. Poop.

That is all.

http://video.adultswim.com/promos/scott-pilgrim-vs-the-animation.html
Not bad.

Saw it tonight and I fucking loved it. It's a perfect mix of faithful adaptation and it's own beast that I don't think any other theatrical comic book adaptation has done before. Easily my favorite movie of the summer.

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escape-to-the-movies/1918-Scott-Pilgrim-vs-The-World

>>83444
Did....He just call Doug Funny a Mary Sue?

I quit.

>>83445
I think he's more discussing how Doug SEES himself as a parallel to how Mary Sues end up ACTING.

Also, reading the comments... why do half of the Escapist forum browsers seem to think they're being edgy by basically being Armond White?

>>83455
The joke is Scott is a loser. Keep up.

>>83464
That really is a joke of the series, Scott is a fucking loser, slacker who mooches off of his friends and used to be a complete asshole. That's why nega-scott exists.

I went to the midnight premiere, everbody groaned then laughed wildly when M Night's name came up during the previews. I'm also going out with a knives cosplayer now.

>>83468
The exact same thing happened at the Expendables and to at least two other people I talked to who went to see Scott Pilgrim at different theatres in different countries.

>>83488
Wow, there are an awful lot of Knives cosplayers out there, huh.

I just realized who Movie!Wallace reminds me of.

Jack Harkness, pre-Torchwood. Not just the demeanor, like the look and everything.

>>83494
Movie Wallace reminds me of the men in my naughty dreams.

http://www.thehdroom.com/news/The-Expendables-Kills-Friday-Box-Office-Scott-Pilgrim-Saves-No-One/7284

Onward to the DVD releases I guess....still don't think its gonna Clear the 60-90 Mil production amount to not get tagged a bomb. It may pick up I guess and maybe do better on the international flip but..they really should have seeded this for the public better beforehand.

>>83496
>BRIANMBENDIS: Just like private parts, Scott pilgrim had an insane amount of sneak previews. fans saw it 4 free numerous times before today. Bad move.

>>83499
I mean, I saw it with fucking BLOM and some friends from the ning. It was a mistake, I didn't go pay for it.

>>83499

And everyone outside the fanbase saw this as just another quirky comedy with this guy

>>83501
Because of this film that one "What that movie where Michael cera plays an awkward teenager?" joke is invalid.

>>83500
The film and the crowd were great, the idea for pre shows was terrible.

>>83502
That would require people to see this movie, and Cera is already waaaay too typecast for them to bother.

>>83501
I just can't look at Michael Cera without wanting to punch him in the face.

>>83518>>83520

This and not communicating what the whole Scott Pilgrim thing is to the general population are what has led to the situation that the film is now in.

I almost got to see this today... but the sister wanted to see Eat Pray Love, and what the hell this is the last time I'll see her for years.

glad to see you guys all liked it.

God, this movie is fantastic.
Micheal Cena was actually surprisingly great as Scott.
And Wallace stole just about every scene, as was expected.

Too bad it's just not pulling in audiences. :c

I've read the first three volumes. It's okay. It doesn't really grip me but it's not bad.

Not sure if I want to see the movie or not.

>>83619
The third volume is where it gets good, and gets better in four. If you don't like it by three then just stop reading. Thanks for giving it a try.

Just got back from seeing it. It kicked ass.

Also made me think that Edgar Wright should direct a Phoenix Wright movie.

Second favorite movie of all time, without a doubt. I say second because nothing will ever beat Back to the Future Part II.

Dat alternate ending. I don't know which one I like more!

Never read the comics but I saw this with my little brother because of Edgar Wright.

I was blown away. What a fantastic cast, even Cera managed to delight. I dug all the little quirky visual bits too, like the words crumbling onto the the floor and the pieces getting kicked around during the first fight.

>>83687
I think I liked the comic's ending a little more. Namely for Ramona's role in it and the extra Gideon dickery.

Not that the film's ending wasn't its own brand of awesome, though.

  >>83374
Hey, I'm liking this! Well animated for flash, and it feels like the comic and
>Wavves' "Post-Acid" pops up
OHMYGODORGASMIDONTCAREIFISOUNDLIKEAHIPSTERIFUCKINGCAME.

Saw it Friday night with a friend who was completely oblivious to Scott Pilgrim. An amazing movie; I loved the stylized fights and comedy. If Michael Sera can get over his "awkward teenager" hole he's been shoved into, he has the potential to be a real action star. Action comedies, maybe, but he can do it.

>>83754
That was the one thing that worried me about the film. Comic!Scott is a total spaz all day erryday. I was afraid that Cera wouldn't be able to emulate that, but son of a bitch, he did it perfectly.

>>83560
This movie's got cult classic written all over it. I wouldn't worry too much if it's not exactly a blockbuster at the box office. Boxbuster.

>>83768
A regular customer was in yesterday and I was telling him to go see it and, sure enough, Cera was his number one reason for not going. When I told him that Cera had quick-paced comedic timing and actually pulled off 'pissed off' in the final fight, he changed his mind almost instantly.
I think Cera is this film's biggest anti-draw, but hopefully WoM will spread that he actually pulls great character and really does a great job.

>In a musical characters break into song and dance whenever there's something too big to be expressed by words. In a musical you learn about each character's personality through what he sings. Sometimes the songs even move the plot along or help change someone's perspective. Scott Pilgrim uses its fights in the same way.

>Scott Pilgrim fights whenever there's something too big to express with dialogue, something too important to simply say. It's through these elaborate, colorful, fights that Scott's personality changes and grows. It's because of his fights that he eventually realizes he lacks self-respect, and when he gets some, that's part of a fight too. Except musicals aren't for everyone and even the best musicals always have their detractors.

This right here is why I hate the comic a lot. Scott will fight, and then magically "get it", then probably lose it in the aftermath. There isn't any inner dialogue, captions or CHANGE that happens; Scott will absorb something video-game related and magically not be as big of a douche (but will make up for it in other ways).

I hate hate hate Scott Pilgrim a lot, so hearing that movie is bombing is very satisfying for me!

Setting aside questions of whether or not a person likes the story or characters in Scott Pilgrim, I would watch fucking Michael Bay movies if they looked like this movie did.

Edgar Wright knocked this one out of the park, and if this movie fails financially chances are we're never going to see something like it again.

It'll pick up after the international release. North americans would rather watch a shit-tier action movie that should have been epic.

>>83950
May I ask why?

It's too bad that the film isn't doing so hot. I REALLY enjoyed myself watching it, and it seems like some perfect cult classic material at least. Here's to hoping?

>>83960

I don't know, it might be one of those slow-burners that claim a paltry opening weekend and then keeps on truckin' week after week thanks to word of mouth. It's got 81% on rotten tomatoes, so it's not like Speed Racer where only we like it for what it is.

I mean, I don't even know all that much about Scott Pilgrim, but I think it looks quirky and fun.

...don't people like quirky and fun?

>>83960
God, I sound like such an eastaboo. That wasn't supposed to be a dick slap to North America, just a comment.

>>83961

Boring, shitty, filled with annoying characters. That combined with people never shutting up about how great it is results in ALL MY HATE

>>83966
Except it's likely better than any of the shit you like. It has fun characters, and a good story. It shows scott going from a total mooching, good for nothing user asshole, to a good guy. All sorts of good shit.

>>83968

It's Dawson's Creek crossed with River City Ransom.

>>83969
That's literally the worst way to put it ever and leads me to believe you never even picked one up. I would have accepted hipster shit over that actually.

>>83969

>>83969
Even if that were true, which it's not, Dawson's Creek mixed with River City Ransom would be amazing.

>>83950>>83966>>83969
You are making me want to go see this movie just to spite you.

>>84035

Anon from >>83960 and>>83966 here.

>>83969 is not with me.

>>84161
Lying fucker. I made >>83960.

So apparently Kim's ending in the video game has her hook up with Knives.

Need this wallpaper without all the desktopy shit in the way, pleeeeaaaaaassse?

>>84195

Whoops, I meant >>83950

>>84229
Nevermind

Saw the movie. I liked it, sure it was very niche, but I fit in with the niche. Also kudos to Cera, who I think actually carried several of the jokes.

And unlike the books, the movie never felt like it was just wasting my time.

>>84230
Oh, sorry.

WHAT ABOUT YOUNG NEIL!

Damn it all!
There are some catchy songs in the movie. I've had Threshhold stuck in my head for the past 2 days.
Intermittenly, Black Sheep as well.

>>84245
Not sure. It's just Neil now though as he isn't all that young.

>>84347
true but "Just Neil" doesn't quite have that same ring to it.

>>84363
Middle-aged Neil? Old Neil? THE Neil?

The only hipster character and the only unlikeable one is Julie Powers

God, what a bitch.

>>84420
Comeau's kind of a hipster.

>>84443
They even played on that in the movie. Comeau said something like "their first album was better" and "the comic was better than the movie.".

>>84420
Take it back.

So I reread all the books over the weekend and I gotta say that I definitely think that's my preferred version, though the movie is still so damn good. Hell, it did what the books did with less time to cover the entire story and it even managed to do some parts better (Negascott in particular stands out), so I'd say they're actually equal overall. Gotta get some other butts to go with me to see it a second time.

>>84458
I love that line, he says "their first album is better than their first album."

>>84379
Neil Alpha. Because I'm sure there will be another Neil.

>>84599
Neil Prime

>>84516
speaking of albums, I picked it up.
Anyone want me to load it to the radio?

>>84789
Yes.

>>84789
Please :)

Alright, I've tossed the soundtrack up onto the radio.
Enjoy.

>Scott Pilgrim is the most important comic series to come out in the past 15 years

>People on /co/ now claiming that Scott Pilgrim is "Twilight for Boys"

Will the trolling ever stop?

>>84840
Which is ironic because Spoony like the movie

>>84843
This was a meme on scott dot ning before 4chan ever noticed it. Their trolling is our pleasure.

>>84840
When I heard that I said, "Well, it was nice knowing you spoony."

>>84853
She's basing a complaint on the relationship content? Wow, she entirely missed the point of why people are watching this movie / reading this comic.

The relationship is an excuse plot. It's the franchise's equivalent of "The President has been abducted by ninja. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue him?"

>>84855

oh part of that is him just seeing if he can bait someone into doing something.

>>84843

It's more like Twilight for videogame nerds. Or Dawson's Creek crossed with River City Ransom.

Twilight for boys is something like Underworld.

Of course the difference is not many blokes think they are some sort of masterpiece and accept that it's shitty popcorn entertainment.

>>84862
>Ramona Flowers has seven evil exes. Are you a bad enough dude to beat them all?

>>84853
>Twilight for boys
Well, it kind of IS. I'd make an argument for it being written better, but I've only been able to read 4 pages of Twilight before I gave up and rage-quit. I can say that SP made for a superior movie.

Okay, someone is going to have to explain to me: HOW is Scott Pilgrim like Twilight aside from "Dude fights for his girlfriend"

>>84940

I guess people are playing off the obsession angle

>>84940

Dude, it's just a troll. It's what people who don't like Scott Pilgrim say because "Hipster Bullshit" lost its punch.

Anything popular now is just twilight something.

>>84940
Anything with romance and/or vampires will be compared to Twilight today, I think.

>>84916
It really isn't though. It isn't misogynistic, iit doesn't have a shirtless man in every scene. Plus Scott Pilgrim is a unisex fit.

Fresh from the ning.

I saw the movie tonight.

Movie>>>>>>>>>Comics
Fun. As. Hell. God, I wish people exploded into coins when you punched them. So satisfying.

Whatever people did the fight work for this needs to do that for whatever next Video Fighting Game. In short THIS IS HOW YOU DO STREET FIGHTER!!!!

So...wait...no happy ending for Kim...at all?

>>85818

She comes off as similar a good friend of mine. Which is to say: she's permanently grumpy and realized not too long ago that she's asexual.

>>85818
I hear she hooks up with Knives in the vidya.

WILL NOTHING EVER SATISFY MY LUST FOR A SP/KIM PINE ENDING?

>>85908
The series is over.
So no.
Except porn there's probably a lot of that.

>>85908

See if you can commission a fan comic or something where it happens.

With porn in it or whatever.

>>85971
But who to commission?

>>86042
I got a guy.
I actually do, an official guy who worked on it.

yeah, right a commission

I'm part of sp's target audience: poor hipster college kids with no money

i guess fanfiction.com will have to do

>>86376
Dude, I said I got guy. I won't even have to pay him, he does this kind of thing for fun.

>>86367
>>86384
I suppose it would be a bit much to get a name, eh?

>>86385
Yes actually, it would. He did the scott porn on /pco/, if that's good enough for you.

Saw the movie yesterday. Shit was awesome.

MIGHT look up the comics.

I've read, watched, and even played everything there is, and I still don't really know what to make of it.

>>84969
I could care less whether it is or isn't to begin with. I like it, I think it's good, that's good enough for me.

>>86503
Obviously you just need to go see it again and again until you get sick of it and decide you hate it.

Got the album on iTunes, it's pretty fucking awesome. I liked that they even included the song O'Malley got the name from, too, though I think that might still be up on +4radio.

>>86465
As a huge scott pilgrim fan, I'm telling you to pirate the first 2 volumes, then if you likem buy them. But if you don't enjoy them, stop right there because you'll never enjoy it.

>>86527

...why is Kim Jong Il suddenly Stroheim?

>>86593
Because it's Kim Jong O'Malley. Glorious leader of the ning.

>>86527
I don't have to pirate it, my local library has the whole series.

>>86607
Oh cool.

Saw the movie. Hm...short answer: I liked it. Long answer...I don't think it was a good idea to make it only one movie. Or for Michael Cera to exist. One of the two.

Bought the game

its awesome.

I'd buy the game just for Paul Robertson's animation.

>>87086
That's why I bought it actually.


And the animation is beautiful

>>87086

I love streets of rage and the like, wish they made it for PC since this is one of the few Ubisoft titles I'd buy outside of the insanely good pile of indie stuff I usually pick up.

Saw the movie yesterday, I'd totally fuck Knives.

  I just finished the game.

SCOTT PILGRIM IS OVER NOW WHAT?!

>>87688
You have entered a dark realm now. With all canon material out of the way, your only hope to feed the addiction is with...

FANWORK.

>>87696

>>87688
FFFFffff
dat soundtrack is so dericious

>>87696
Oh god I need a fix, please say you can hook me up, forums, good fanart, articles, whatever!

>>need a fix

look up 'SCOTT PILGRIM REMIX' on youtube
Those are pretty good.

I'm liking this -Ramona's 8th evil Ex- contest on DA.

...Especially the one with the horse

>>89486
>filename

>>89568
There's certainly a King's Assload of them kickin about.

And this is only a fraction of the total.
