I’m very excited to see this, even though I haven’t read the sixth book. I’m going to buy it on Friday when I get paid and see the movie Monday, if my wife doesn’t work.
The original trailer might not have been very explanatory, I’ll give you that. I’d read about it either late last year or early this year and bought the books because the plot sounded cool. I like the new trailers that focus on one character rather than try to tell you the concept and plot. It’s spanning six books–albeit, short books–and that’s kind of hard to get across in a short trailer.
I’m actually a little concerned about what they’re going to omit from the books to tell the whole story. Seems like they could easily breeze past some important details and back-story just to cram in fights with the Exes.
Again I’ve already sen the movie and it’s definitely awesome, if some times a little rushed. Towards the end though they drop most of the 5th and 6th Book to work in they’re own unique ending but it’s the same story just told a different way, and awesomely. Even still Scott Pilgrim, to me, was one the best movies of the year. :3
I’m not too keen on the wigs, either. They don’t even remotely look like real (dyed) hair.
I dunno, some guys click more with quirky girls like that ones with the glamourous (albeit girl-next-door) look she has in the first pic. And though I haven’t read the books, just from the trailer, the quirky look seems much more in keeping with the feel of the story.
But then, what do I know… I’m a girl, and I admire quirky chicks (not that I have anything against glamourous ones, mind). :)~
I like quirky, don’t get my wrong. Aubrey Plaza? Yes!
But there’s a difference between quirky and looking like you’re wearing a hairpiece made out of a skinner Care Bear.
I want Scott Pilgrim to succeed but I’m pretty sure the Box Office for this weekend will be like:
1. Eat Pray Love
2. The Expendables
3. The Other Guys / Scott Pilgrim
4. Step Up 3-D / Scott Pilgrim
Shameful as it is to admit, you’re probably right. Scott Pilgrim has an uphill climb if it’s going to break through with anyone that doesn’t already love video games or comic books.
I see it holding steady in it’s second week, though. Julia Roberts and Sylvester Stallone? Not as much.
I love the library background that Tom’s reading in.
Tom hates to read but he has a FABULOUS library!
Yea that library was a great idea.
Since BO has been brought up, is anybody else concerned that Universal put this film’s release in the middle of August, a sign that they might have screened it and said “Meh”? Don’t know if they know something we don’t or just don’t get it as far as the core audience is concerned and decided it was a safe window for them…
I want to see it but at the same time I don’t. It’s because of Michael Cera. I don’t know about anyone else but to me it just seems like Cera plays the same guy in each movie and I’m not in a mood for a repeat. I think I’ll wait it out a bit.
I agree that Cera is a forgettable actor. He always seems to play the role of the “nice, meek boy” and never makes much of an impact on screen.
I totally disagree with what other people are saying about the trailer. For me, at least, the trailer totally wet my appetite for the film. I’m really excited to see it.
I do agree on the hair though, a little subtlety would have been nice.
Nope, I’d go for the purple over the normal…..
In that case, I’ve got a sock puppet I’d like to introduce to you. 😉
Hey guys, Tom is finally…
ONE OF US! ONE OF US! GOOBLE GOBLE GOOBLE GOBLE!
ONE OF US! ONE OF US! GOOBLE GOBLE GOOBLE GOBLE!
Yeah, Tom, gotta disagree with you. Especially with the two pictures you posted, I think she’s much better looking in her movie form than her (um, i guess for lack of a better term) “real” form. Though I grew up on Muppet movies, so maybe that’s why.
Hey Tom, been enjoying your TH for a couple of years now, thanks!
1. Girls who look like they have a personality will ALWAYS win over boring “picture perfect” girls (even if the hair does look fake)
2. Annoying video ads (and a trailer for a movie that seems sub-par to say the least), really??? C’mon man, I understand you need to make a living, but this is seriously off-putting
with respect and regards

1. I agree that girls with a personality are always more attractive than “picture perfect” girls. But seeing as I only have pictures to draw from for reference… well.
2. What video ads are you running into and where are they appearing on the site. I don’t want them on the site any more than you do. Help me track them down and I’ll turn them off!
I’ve seen the video ads on Theater Hopper, too. They generally appear in the lower left-hand corner.
I cannot tell you how excited I am for this movie – and I didn’t start reading the books until I saw the first trailer. Even if it doesn’t turn out to be a *great* movie (though I really, really hope it does), I’m just hoping that it’s a *fun* movie, which we’ve had few of this year – I’d say How to Train Your Dragon and Iron Man 2 have been the only two films this season that have been truly fun, you know?
I love the colored hairstyles. She looks a bit forgettable as a brunette. Hollywood has too many skinny brunettes. It’s hard to keep track. Anyhoo, I saw a sneak peek and It was exceptional. One thing to consider is that the movie was finished before the last book. So there are definite differences between the two, but the movie does the book justice and then some. So yeah!
Truthfully, I wouldn’t have a problem with the colored hair if it didn’t look like a mop sitting on top of her head.
There’s a way to be idiosyncratic and still well-kept, y’know.
I’ve tried twice already to get through the first Scott Pilgrim book with no success (it’s just so very very boring). But I’m willing to give it one more shot. Maybe if I pick up from where I left off, instead of starting at the beginning again….
i kid you not this is exactly what happened with my friend.
she wanted to kill time while we were at a comic book store last year, read 5 minutes of the first one to see what all the fuss was about.
then later asked to borrow all my books.
and is in love with it as much as i am and is going to see it with us tonight.
she seems more upset than i am that we missed a special screening last night that edgar wright and some of the cast attended while they were in town.
Cera is all of 130 lbs and maybe 5’5″? I’ve never met him I am just gauging him by comparison in movies and interviews. In Hollywood he really is undersized and maybe with age will get that magic spread that will turn him into something more resembling a human rather than a creepy over sized man-child. So mocking him for being a one-note actor is kind of mean, I did it in the past but I realize he is physically limited by his appearance more than anything. He is effectively a grown child actor, not in the Punky Brewster awesome way but in that he is playing a child’s role as a grown adult and he will never escape that role. Jesse Eisenburg the cera twin will eventually age like Ron Howard and if he doesn’t bald probably pick up more consistent less-geek roles simply because he is taller, heavier, and generally less emasculated than Cera.
That being said, I think the second photo is much more beautiful. I find that faux tan pushing to look like everybody else look both disturbing and unattractive. Her wig (once seen still in the photo) does look terrible. The quick cuts I’ve seen kept me from getting a good look, but yes, that wig is awful and having dabbled in my youth with a myriad of colors I can tell you a simple dye job wouldn’t have hurt. I would much rather be with somebody who looks natural and normal than somebody pushing to be princess orange from the crab nebula.
I’m going to have to see this movie next friday. Hopefully it will still be running strong and not knocked out by a money grab from aging action stars or just another Julia Roberts mess.
hay very funny article i want to get it
thank
Everyone comes around to Scott Pilgrim eventually.
For the record, I’m going as Ramona for Halloween, but I actually have blue (permanent) highlights in my hair and plan to get more before the 31st. No wig for me!
I don’t get it.
I don’t want it.
Your piece is irrelevant.
