But is that 4 10/10's for Scott Pilgrim now? I think it is. BEST FILM OF THE YEAR.

..


Check out Spaced. A tv series he did before Shaun etc. Some awesome pie going on that.

The trailer makes Scott Pilgrim look like a complete sack of ass. I'm going to avoid seeing this in theaters, despite all the great reviews. For this same reason, I haven't seen Kick-Ass yet either.

You bastards tricked me into expecting Inception to be a masterpiece... I won't fall for it again.

PS: Wasn't Scott Pilgrim originally a comic book?

noisereductions 08.17.2010 11:12 AM

apparently Scott Pilgrim is full of retro-videogamer goodness. (And Mary Elizabeth Winstead!!! I'm a big fan!)

Dr. Eugene Felikson 08.17.2010 11:22 AM

Yeah, but the plot... it's so....


 

noisereductions 08.17.2010 11:27 AM

still worth checking. I'm way more interested in Scott Pilgrim (and Mary Elizabeth Winstead) than I am in Kick-Ass.

GeneticKiss 08.17.2010 11:29 AM

Scott Pilgrim has several references to video games from the late 80s to today, indie/punk rock from the 90s to today (Clash at Demonhead evoke Elastica and Veruca Salt, but also Metric and Paramore), two references to the Smashing Pumpkins in their prime, vegetarian/vegan snootiness, casual treatment of homosexuality...I've said too much already.

Just go fucking see it. A no. 5 position opening weekend is NOT acceptable for something this awesome.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 08.17.2010 11:31 AM

ugggh fine.

Rob Instigator 08.17.2010 11:58 AM

maybe people, like myself, are just sick of seeing Michael Cera's hound dog sad sack fucking FACE?

noisereductions 08.17.2010 11:59 AM

maybe.

Maybe it's cool to backlash.

Rob Instigator 08.17.2010 12:18 PM

I wanna watch the flick though

I rarely go t the theatre though

I wait until it hits DVD.

10/10
One of my new favorite movies. So awesome.

noisereductions 08.17.2010 12:36 PM

^hell yeah it is. After that, I'd say IV is my favorite... Citizen Toxie. It's great, for a more recent Troma film.

viewtiful alan redux 08.17.2010 01:31 PM

I can't imagine they can beat the first one.
Hey, look at us, agreeing on a movie for once!
I just loved how it had so much wit, and so many laughs, and managed to not take itself seriously while still staying true to the genre and premise. Gore satire done right.

noisereductions 08.17.2010 01:46 PM

Citizen Toxie isn't as good. But it's my favorite sequel.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 08.17.2010 05:14 PM

I <3 The Monster Hero

atsonicpark 08.17.2010 05:19 PM

Citizen Toxie is way better than the first one. It's the ultimate Troma film. My favorite Lloyd film is Nuke'Em High.

Scott Pilgrim trailers suck, but who cares. The film is the best mainstream American film of the decade.

noisereductions 08.17.2010 06:34 PM

I like the first better. But Citizen Toxie rules. I think Citizen is basically a successful execution of what Lloyd aimed for with Terror Firmer.

tw2113 08.17.2010 10:44 PM

what were the Smashing Pumpkins references? I'm clearly not a big enough fan to notice after 1 viewing.

atsonicpark 08.17.2010 11:11 PM

Scott Pilgrim
Smashing Pumpkins

He wears 3 diferent Pumpkins shirts in the movie.

One of the comics is called "Scott Pilgrim and the infinite sadness",

Tila Tequila -- Corgan's girlfriend -- got destroyed the same night the movie came out.

tHAT'sa ll I got for now.
