Kind of astonishing what movies I later find out to have been flops. Like apparently Scott Pilgrim vs. The World lost huge amounts of money; this in spite of the fact that the theatre was packed the night I saw it and everyone in my social circle quoted it constantly and it got an anime spinoff with the original cast, most of whom had become quite famous, 13 years later.

Hey Alex 👋

What are some movies you’ve really enjoyed in your life?

My cousin actually asked me yesterday what I though the “greatest film of all time” was, and I said I am not qualified to make claims on that level… but movies I enjoy, now THAT’S something I can do!

The Mitchels vs. The Machines - I think this was a Netflix Original, but it’s an animated film produced by Sony, and has so much life and love in it! Just a fun family film about a robot apocalypse with quirky characters and very relatable family struggles, but in the end a very sweet resolution that makes me envious 🥺 10/10

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World - I’m noticing a pattern with these movie titles so far… anyways, while the comics were better overall (and I need to finish them) the Scott Pilgrim movie was pretty great! I highly recommend it to people curious about Scott Pilgrim to get essentially a crash course in Scott Pilgrim, and then read the comics if you want more.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail - While I’m ashamed to say that this is the only Monty Python media I’ve interacted with directly, The Holy Grail is such a great movie and very much my style of humor in a lot of ways XD

I have to give a shout out to the original live-action Diary of a Wimpy Kid movies, especially the second one. I have a lot of great memories of watching these with friends, and every now and then I still rewatch the second one if I want a dose of nostalgia ��

The Hobbit Trilogy are so so so so so good, for a long time I didn’t realize there were people who disliked them compared to the book? As someone who has read and reread The Hobbit religiously over the years, the movies are pretty damn good! Some parts aren’t quite up to snuff with the book, but some parts I think do a better job of explaining the course of events than in the book (and especially Gandalf’s travels being viewed as part of the film lends itself incredibly well to preceding the Lord of the Rings trilogy). Sure the dwarf/elf romance may have been unnecessary, but it was kinda cute and has some good poetic quotes about it. All in all, some of my favorite movies right here, but especially the first one.

your name. (Kimi no na wa) - I adore Makoto Shinkai films, 5 Centimeters per Second was one of the first anime films I ever watched. your name. is just one of the greatest movies ever made, such a beautiful love story, animated brilliantly, and the funniest part is that Makoto Shinkai considers it INCOMPLETE because he had to rush the ending to meet deadlines… and it’s still a masterpiece! I recommend watching the sub version if you can, because there’s a lot of intricacies involving the Japanese language and things that gets a little lost in localization and dubbing. Honestly might be my favorite movie of all time.

The Spiderverse films by Sony are some of the most spectacular animated movies of the decade, at least! I grew up as a Spider-Man fan, and especially loved the Andrew Garfield movies, and these movies scratch that same itch, while also featuring sooo many variants of Spider-people from different comics and crossovers. Both Into and Across were fantastic, can’t wait for Beyond!

Growing up a big Star Wars nerd, I might be expected to name an original trilogy film, but actually I think Rogue One is my favorite Star Wars film ever! It’s got all the makings of a fantastic sci-fi thriller, set in the Star Wars universe, about a famous line from the original movies: “Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR…” (this might also be the only good thing Disney has done for Star Wars movies idk)

To a much lesser extent, The LEGO Movie actually holds up quite well in my mind! Always love revisiting a fun family film like that :3

There we go! Is this more than you asked for? Probably, but you get it anyway! X3 Thanks for the ask~!

[opinions-about-tiaras]

I can answer this one actually.

Basically, the original movie was a really beloved experience for everyone involved in it. Actors will always say of a project when it comes out "oh, it was great, it was life-changing, everyone is best friends forever" and of course its all PR nonsense. You have to wait a few years before the real dirt starts getting dished.

Well, in the case of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, it turns out that that was literally true. It would be seven, eight, nine years later, and the cast would be doing media for something like Avengers: Endgame or Birds of Prey or Succession or any of the other projects they'd moved onto, and someone would mention "well, of course, back before you were super famous you were in Scott Pilgrim" and their eyes would just light right up and they'd become very effusive about how much they fucking loved working on it.

The story they all like to tell (you can see Mary Elizabeth Winstead mention it here and Chris Evans mention it here) is that when they were making the movie, they had an email chain, as one does, to coordinate their schedules and just chat and whatnot. And then the movie ends, and they all go their separate ways.

Like nine years later, like in 2019 or something, Michael Cera resurrects it by literally grabbing a Scott Pilgrim meme he saw on TikTok or something and posting it there, like no time has passed at all. And Chris Evans replies "Michael, what the hell?" and suddenly they're all chatting together again.

That email chain was used to coordinate the 10th anniversary table read of the script. (See here.) You'll notice they have almost everyone back; even Evans made the time.

It was also used to contact everyone to get them involve when the anime was green-lit. To quote from a Variety piece on the subject:

Eventually, Wright formally contacted the actors through the email group they’d maintained since 2010 to pitch them the new concept, including copies of the first two scripts. Since the release of the film, many of the cast have become full-fledged stars with packed schedules. So while O’Malley says having them return “was the golden ideal,” they tried to manage their expectations. “We were open to having to start all over if everyone said no.” Grabinski expected to start hearing back “over the span of six weeks.” Instead, he says, “It was emailed in the morning, and before lunch, almost everybody had replied to the thread and said they were going to do it. I literally screamed.”

So basically, the reason they got everyone back is just because all of them love Scott Pilgrim and each other just that much.

I genuinely can’t comprehend how Scott pilgrim takes off got LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE IMPORTANT AND SEMI IMPORTANT CHARACTER to be on the cast??!! Like they must have made them sign a contract agreeing to rejoin the cast in the event of some kind of reboot, otherwise literally how could they get everyone???!!!!
