it must be impossible for Michael Cera not to look awkward, even if the character shouldn't.

Yeah...they should've just done an animated movie.

JackFrost2012 says:
yay
yeah there's a much higher-res pic on Bryan O Malley's flickr

Prole says:
you mean: yuck
that is hipster douchery completely circumscribed!
look at them!

JackFrost2012 says:
that's the point of the series though
I mean
not in a meta-contextual way either
the overall arc of Scott Pilgrim is
Scott Pilgrim is a hipster douchebag
who is so busy being clever he doesn't realize what a fucking douchebag he is
it's funny and there's lots of videogame references and whatnot but

Prole says:
i was gonna say: are you sure? cuz there's a lot of potential hot topic moments in that series, too!
but it is indeed funny

JackFrost2012 says:
did you ever read 4-5
it gets a lot darker starting with 4
in the sense that Pilgrim is like "lol! I am a hipster on the Internet! lol!"

Prole says:
i have not read 5, didn't know it was out

JackFrost2012 says:
and his life is falling apart around him

no one can stop a true fan!

Wow, Patel actually gets the series. The rest of you are fucking idiots.

the series is fine. michael cera and that thing that is supposed to be ramona are not.

and let's not forget how well the central message of fight club was understood by its target audience of bros!

i guarantee this movie, if wright pulls it off, will usher in hipster validation, not deprecation

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #18 on:** December 16, 2009, 12:24:01 AM »

<Willco> I will also say this
<Willco> If during the trailer
<Willco> He tells anyone to listen to ANY band listed on Pitchfork's albums of the year
<Willco> THAT IT WILL CHANGE THEIR LIFE
<Willco> I'm out
<Synthesizer Patel> haha
<Synthesizer Patel> that reminds me, tracks 50-1 are up

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #21 on:** December 16, 2009, 12:26:43 AM »

Looks exactly what I thought it would look like.

Plus! Greg Motolla got to see it and says it's fucking awesome, Cera included. I love Greg Motolla, so I will most likely enjoy this.

This looks exactly as expected. What the fuck were you guys expecting a Scott Pilgrim movie to look like?

Not Michael Cera. Really, the casting looks pretty great except for him. In the comic Scott is like an audacious nerd or something, but Michael Cera can't not look awkward and uncomfortable.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #25 on:** December 16, 2009, 12:34:32 AM »

Willco loves posting chat logs of members that left. It's like they're still here!

Oh wait, Prole started it this time.

I don't know which worse: the fact that the joke is horrible or the fact that I was referring to "Operation Desert Storm."

It's like a bunch of jackasses when to comic con(or a group of hipsters).

This move should have never been made.

It's that what the comic is about?

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #33 on:** December 16, 2009, 02:26:22 AM »

the comic is about the life and times of a self-aggrandizing, self-pitying hipster who thinks he's dating his anime girlfriend, but in reality he's just played WAY too many vidjamagames

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #34 on:** December 16, 2009, 02:30:18 AM »

Like the PS3, gotta see it in motion :'( But people calling out Cera fucking shit up with his Michael Cera'isms, I have a feeling this is going to happen here.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #35 on:** December 16, 2009, 03:02:37 AM »

Can't wait to find out what happens to Michael Cera when he turns 30

TEEEPO · « **Reply #36 on:** December 16, 2009, 04:37:39 AM »

the zero shirt has made me all nostalgic.
