They're coming out with an anime series of Scott Pilgrim and all the actors from the movie are coming back to do the voices of their characters.

So looking forward to watching this with you! Thanks Mary!!

I tend not to like film analysis; the vast majority of the time my feeling is: I liked it (or I didn't like it), why would I care to watch somebody pick it apart to try to analyze what I liked about it or what I didn't? It leans very pretentious and gets overly technical about art in a way I find, at best, uninteresting. THAT BEING SAID I've started discovering some really interesting analysis of things on youtube that I find more interesting than annoying. "Every Frame a Painting" is maybe the best, and he does a relatively breezy 8 min video on how much he loves Edgar Wright's sense of comedy in movies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FOzD4Sfgag&t=5s (The channel shuttered some years ago; 28 videos total. There are maybe 4-5 that really stand out to me - Fincher, Chuck Jones, Coen bros - but honestly, they're all really good and worth watching.)

That's a really great line "Did you really see a future with this girl" "With, like... jetpacks?"

Eric

Yeah, Knives deserved better.

I love the fight choreography in this movie...

I knew this one was going to be perfect for you considering the blend of video game aesthetics and the great music. Probably one of my favorite movie soundtracks. I have it ready to go for long drives... with Awesome Mix 1 and 2 of course. They actually filmed an ending where Scott ends up with Knives, but they rightly decided that she needed her own agency and growth after everything that happened to her. Brie Larson actually sang the song that was used in the movie, though they had to use the original artists version for the soundtrack release (both are really good).

I already watched this reaction before (for those who are not Mary, I am the one who requested it!), but I watched it again and this time I put one of the four commentaries on instead of the movie audio, and within the same two minutes that you say "Kill Bill is nothing compared to this," director Edgar Wright mentions on the track I listened to that he talked to Quentin Tarantino for tips on making the actors doing some of the stunt choreography themselves look good on-screen!

One of the main reasons I adore this film is that it's a movie that's set in its own world. Not in a fantasy/sci-fi way, but in a whimsical dreamlike sort of way. In answer to a couple questions you had during the reaction: "Second Base" is a reference to euphemisms surrounding baseball terminology with regards to couples in the early stages of dating. "First Base" is the first kiss. "Second Base" is fondling above the waist. "Third Base" is fondling below the waist. And "Home Base" is when they finally go all the way. Also the word "hasbian" is a crass, derogatory slur used toward bi-sexual women. Combining the words "has-been" and "lesbian".

This movie came out 12 years ago. You had Chris Evans before Captain America and Brie Larson before Captain Marvel. I believe there were two other endings they had for the movie. One was he ended up back with Chow and another ending where Scott isn't in his right mind and that he didn't realize he was actually killing people but he thought it was all a video. Something like that. But it's good they stayed with this ending. I have all 6 volumes Mangas and their is a video game if Mary would like to try it out. A movie that a lot of us requested and almost bugged Mary to death to watch lol.
