Scott Pilgrim and the Movie That Makes Me Nervous

<< < (33/48) > >>

Alex C:
I should point out that I'm 4 or 5 years older than a lot of you, and the people who excluded us were usually 2-3 years older than me. So the gap is even a li'l larger than it initially appears. I'd also point out that I do not believe that any exclusion was even really about video games or D&D or anything. Rather, I think it is about the grammar of bullying and exclusion. With or without video games there's always going to be a few jackasses out there who think they can get away with picking on the younger kids, after all, and predictably it pretty much died out by my senior year when there wasn't really any bigger fish in the pond anymore. It's just that playing a lot of video games was still uncommon enough that giving someone shit for playing them still had some exclusionary heft to it. But now with Madden and Call of Duty sales flying through the roof it's a lot easier to just go back to calling people fags.

saw this tonight.  that was a hell of a show.  there was so much going on, humor was perfect, the little references.   great movie if you ask me.

In the last 24 hours I have seen the movie and read all 6 comics (both for the first time) and I think I probably enjoyed the movie more. Extra little things like the single lines added into the dialogue just made it - also the movie version of the battle with the twin was far better (though the moment they mentioned twins I was hoping for one to be ice and the other fire and defeating them by turning their attacks against one another) as was the treatment of how he used his extra life. The only real place where the books outdid the movie was in the final battle and the final explination, which I guess is due to the movie being made before the final book was published.

Just saw this with Han.  It has its faults, but we both really liked it.  So much that we were talking about it on the way home, then watched trailers when we got home so Han could show me certain things she'd seen in them, and we both said at different points that we could probably re-watch the entire thing over again from the start right now.  So yeah, pretty entertaining.

StaedlerMars:
So, is this movie out everywhere in the world except for the UK?
