Simple premise this movie: Boy meets girl, boy must defeat the girl’s 7 evil ex-boyfriends. Ya know, it’s your traditional love story. The film is based on the Scott Pilgrim series of graphic novels by Canadian cartoonist Bryan Lee O’Malley and although I’ve only read one of the books, I have to say that from the looks of the trailer, director Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Shaun Of The Dead) has really captured the nerd-chic essence of the book. My favorite part of the trailer was the lound “KAY-OH” during the fight sequence. Ah, brings back memories of visiting the arcade (which will be discussed on a separate post real soon). Awesome stuff. So what did you think? Did the over the top nature turn you off or put you on to it even more?
Looks pretty awesome! Edgar Wright can do no wrong!
This look pretty awesome…Plus new music from Beck.
