WE ARE SEX BOMB-OMB AND WE ARE HERE TO MAKE YOU THINK ABOUT DEATH AND GET SAD AND STUFF!!!!!

I adore it. I love things with a sense of self. A sense of style and cohesion that is it's own. This movie has it aplenty. Unapologetically comic book with its own rules and vibe. Excellent

I mean this profile pic and name are based on a game that likewise has an insanely personal sense of style that is just FUN

It is a shame, because comics are a medium like many others where you can express a wide variety of styles and stories, but because so many comic book movies were poorly made and half-assed before the massive success of Iron Man, they're just afraid to deviate from that style much. I have to feel like they've been thinking about doing some different things for a while now, since they're certainly getting diminished returns, but I know that my interest in comic book movies has also dwindled quite a lot.

Some things in the Marvel area do stand out as being different in style/tone while still being good, though. i.e. I enjoyed Logan quite a lot. I want to say the Deadpool movies are different from the main-series Marvel stuff, but they still have that... annoying snarky tone to them. It's edgier but not entirely different.

The problem with modern day comic book superhero movies its has to do with the fact that they are action movie blockbusters that happen to have people with powers, with the success of the Avengers movie studios have decided to just follow the so call marvel formula with little to no change which leads to movies that all kinda look the same.

in the past movies like scott pilgrim and the rami spider-man movie were just adaptation of the source material (with some changes) so they got a lot more freedom to try to make their own style, nowdays with the decay of the MCU maybe studios will let directors have a little more freedom when adapting comic book movies but it could also not happen or they just start copying the next successful movie while learning nothing

It's one of my favourite films of all time, I keep thinking won't hold up or will somehow be problematic on re-watching, but I always have a great time.

Scott Pilgrim is a fun movie and the soundtrack slaps

No vegan diet, no vegan powers!

It did very poorly in the box office back when it came out, though I don't know how much money it has made since as the cult classic it became.

There was also an anime adaptation called Scott Pilgrim Takes Off which takes the story in a very different direction, that came out a year and a half ago.

I saw it at a radio station sponsored big opening night. I loved the movie and so did my friends. It was great to see this in a packed theater. Still love this movie.

it rules

I passed on this movie but I should really check it out. How's the comic?
