Okay it’s Christmas Eve and I’m writing in a blog. Not sure if that’s fitting, weird or weirdly fitting. Anyway I just watched Scott Pligrim vs. the World for the first time and all I can say is wow…wow. I happen to be aware of the director’s past efforts: only a little series called Spaced and a movie called Shawn of the Dead. And some other stuff too probably. Mostly he seems to work with Simon Peg. Or he did.
Anyway Scott Pilgrim is about the greatest geek dedication of a movie as I’ve ever seen. I just got through watching it and if I had time I would just watch it again. Or possibly buy my own copy of it on some kind of disc. They sell those right? Movies with discs on them? I mean discs with movies on them?
The in jokes in this movie are just incredible and in almost every scene. Actually spaced was a lot like that as well.
