Scott Pilgrim vs. the Trailer

Now I feel all giddy. It's the adrenaline.
 
I just love so many things about this trailer. It's clear that they actually took the time to READ the books and really captured it.

Things I loved:
-"K.O.!!!"
-The various sound effect text!
-"...eleven evil ex-boyfriends."
"*whiper* Seven."
"Oh, that's not so bad."

Yeah. Want very badly.
 
It looks good, but I think the trailer might be to all-over-the-place + michael cera burnout, and this is gonna flop really hard. I mean. I guess this is the whole story, so it's not like we're hoping for a sequel, but I still am a little worried.
 
It's by the same people that did Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. That alone is good enough for me.

Apparently, advanced screenings have said it's his best work to date. Which, compared to the above two is going to be one hell of an accomplishment.

I'm not too worried about it being too cramped. The books are honestly pretty fast reads.

This trailer makes me really want them to finish the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy.
 
Still not entirely convinced of Micheal Cera's ability to portray Scott correctly, but the action scenes at least look well paced enough, and it seems like they haven't strayed from the book.

I thought this wasn't going to be the whole story though?

Heh. I just realized that if you pause the trailer at about 49 seconds in, (right as Lucas punches Scott and just before he throws Scott into the tower) you can see Wallace Wells for a split second. He's standing next to Ramona holding a cup of coffee. His expression is priceless.

Its following the first three books, then spins off on its own.

My list of must-see movies is growing. Predators, Iron Man 2, Kick-Ass, and this... And I'm actually looking forward to this one the most.

Here's a fairly informative look at the trailer:

Saw this trailer a few days ago and want it so much. How good is the comic as I hadn't even heard of it until this trailer
 
I picked up Volume 1 after having seen this trailer. It was pretty great, and if it picks up even more, you can consider me sold.

The first I heard of Scott Pilgrim was when the comic book show iFanboy talked about the series. I was interested but I still haven't read it yet. Probably because they talked about it like it was something that had never been done before, but all the major points they made were basicially describing Megatokyo (american made, manga-style comic that blurs the line between reality and video games) Now, obviously there are major difference between the two, but up until now I'd kind of written it off as the knock-off since Megatokyo came first and I'm a big fan.
 
Oh. He was responding the the Megatokyo comparison. For some reason I thought that something else was going on.

CARRY ON!

The original trailer didn't interest me that much. But the new one makes me really wanna see the movie.

I forgot Edgar Wright was directing it. I gotta see it now.
