them watching the video blogs blew my fucking mind

also, is that the first time we've seen Keiran Culkin since he was cast?

#pipe

I finally got 3,4 and 5 in the mail from Amazon so I'm re-reading 1 and 2 before reading them.

I forgot how simple and excellent they are.

my favourite part is the occasional headlines. Ramona agrees to go out with scott, and the next page says:

"SO YEAH"

I love it.

YaYa

3 4 and 5 are the best ones

hurry the fuck up

PikaPuff

it's blank so they can apply the CGI to it

Umaro

Too hip.

MikeRyu

Just enough hip.

Poorochondriac

It's hip to be square

cooljammer00

I think so. I also think it's the first time we've seen them all associating with each other too.

"AND HE STALKED HER UNTIL SHE LEFT"

I don't think they do that anymore after the first book.

edit: still not sure why Lawrence has a different last name, unless West is his middle name/step-relations.

PikaPuff

I remember a few of them in the later books.

MikeRyu

Yeah why does Scott's brother have a different last name?

So... what is the appeal of this series? I mean, I read the OP and checked out some of the stuff on Wiki and it seems very popular on these boards, but something's just not clicking with me on why.

Maybe it's an age thing, you damn kids.

PikaPuff

have you read them? They are well written. It's natural and sounds believeable. The dialog itself, not what's happening in the dialog, mind you.

That's fine and all, but the series sounds more like serialized romance mangas, just made in North America instead, none of which sounds that appealing. /shrug

The entire series actually feels a lot like the scene from High Fidelity in your sig.

zimfan

I love that scene

deadonthestreet

Actually the entire thing is very High Fidelity. So if you like High Fidelity you should probably read Scott Pilgrim.

It's like, the draw of High Fidelity is that you're seeing it through the perspective of Rob, who is kind of an insecure asshole, yeah? And you get to see how he fucks up real bad, but how he grows a little while doing it. Scott Pilgrim is kind of the same. You're following Scott, who is a massively insecure guy who is also an asshole, and the story's about how he tries to grow up.

Also both stories are about music.

Bedlam

Having just read 1-3 its kind of a quirky little adventure series that dosent take itself too seriously and makes a lot of video game refrences/jokes.

I dont think scott pilgram can even really quallify as one genre.

Also High Fidelity rocked.

cooljammer00

Hey, what if you're like me and have wide feet? Would they just jam them into any old pair of Chucks, or would they get those wide ones specially made?

satansfingers

i bought a pair of chucks once and quickly realized that my arches are way too high for those shoes

they were so uncomfortable

PikaPuff

I think my feet are double g wide

Cristoval

Chucks are stylin' shoes to wear if you are planning to not be walking around a whole lot.

PikaPuff

perfect for pax

Scott is not an arsehole.

He is a retard.

There is a difference.

Cilla Black

I wouldn't say retard, or even stupid. He's just got messed up priorities. Remembering people's names and suchlike takes a back seat to sonic the hedgehog 3.

Centipede Damascus

He can be kind of a jerk sometimes though, usually without meaning to.

I really didn't like him for a while in Book One

when he almost had sex with Ramona while he and Knives were still dating

Brainleech

I wore chuck ts in high school because I could not afford a better shoe. I find it funny people now will pay large amounts of money for them as they are now tres chic



I am disappointed they got rid of Kim Pine for the movie

You mean Lisa Miller? I liked her too. Also, she's named after Lisa Miller, of WNYX fame. She got me all hot and bothered and she was a cartoon! Also, she factored into a story thread they probably will ignore in the movie.

Also, I wish I could wear All Stars/Chucks/Converse, but I have wide feet. I wear New Balance.

PikaPuff

the... magical fairy teens cartoon? or the magical witches crushin' on everyone cartoon? either way

cj iwakura

I just started reading this.

And that is probably the most elaborately awesome OP ever. The bar's been raised.

Nads

Cristoval

She's not even that hot.

Yes she is.
